How to watch new 'Paris & Nicole: The Encore' show online — stream from anywhere

Nicole Ritchie and Paris Hilton return to the small screen.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Simpson were as early 21st century as it got. Nepo babies before the term even existed, these two were definitely going somewhere at some point and it just so happened that they got there together on "The Simple Life". And now they are back on TV as "Paris & Nicole: The Encore" with a masterplan.

It's on Peacock in the U.S., but if you're away, here's how to watch "Paris & Nicole: The Encore" online from anywhere with a VPN.

'Paris & Nicole: The Encore' - Streaming details

The "Paris & Nicole: The Encore" three-part reunion show premieres exclusively on Peacock on Thursday, December 12 in the U.S. (And on Hayu in other territories the next day).

• U.S. — Peacock
• Canada / U.K. / Australia —
Hayu (Fri., Dec. 13)
• Watch anywhere — NordVPN

Well, masterplan might be stretching it. Their idea (and it might have been their idea, you never know) is to stage an opera around the story of their childhood friendship and a song they wrote together aged 7 called 'Sanasa'.

To do this they enlist the help of Kathy Hilton and revisit the surviving members of the cast and crew in Arkansas where the groundbreaking first season of "The Simple Life" was set.

Ultimately though, it's a where are they now three-part nostalgia-fest that will also allow the two women to show the world that there has been some personal growth – they were feuding for years – and that experience has been both accumulated and processed in a positive way.

And it is, for some of us, it is a chance to reflect upon where reality television is today after "The Simple Life" arrived on the crest of a breaking wave that subsequently swept away almost all TV before it. Read on and we'll show you how to watch "Paris & Nicole: The Encore" online from anywhere.
