Comcast Corp.’s NBCUniversal is getting a trove of Dick Wolf programming for its new Peacock streaming service, including “Law & Order.” But despite paying nine figures for the library, it won’t have the fan-favorite dramas to itself.
Walt Disney Co.’s Hulu also will offer some of the shows on its service through a separate deal, according to a person familiar with the situation. Amazon.com Inc.’s Prime service also has access to “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” under an existing agreement. (The shows also are readily available on basic cable in the U.S.)
