Peacock has released the official premiere date for Pete Davidson’s (School Dance, The King of Staten Island) series Bupkis. The eight-episode series, co-written, executive produced, and starring Davidson, will be debuting on Thursday, May 4, 2023, on the streaming service, according to Deadline.

“Pete Davidson is one of the most sought-after comedians today with his smart, one-of-a-kind humor and honest point of view,” boasted Chairman of Entertainment Content at NBCUniversal Television and Streaming Susan Rovner.

Bupkis is a semi-autobiographical project inspired by Davidson’s childhood experiences and features a star-studded cast of characters, according to ComicBook.

“Bupkis will showcase Pete’s funny, surprising, and unfiltered brand of comedy audiences have come to love as we continue to bolster our Peacock comedy slate. We can’t wait to dive in with Lorne Michaels, Broadway Video, and our partners at Universal Television,” said Rovner.
