LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Peacock is leaping by dropping a bizarre show that will surely affect the audience. AI tools have become a part of human life. Be it, Siri or Alexa, they are making people's lives better. People at the back of their minds know of them controlling humans in some years. 'Mrs Davis,' a sci-fi series dropping on the streamer, is based on this future prediction.

Co-created by 'Lost' creator Damon Lindelof and 'The Big Bang Theory' writer Tara Hernandez, the sci-fi comedy features Sister Simone, a nun fighting against Mrs Davis, an AI. Emmy nominee Betty Giplin plays the lead role, while her cowboy boyfriend is played by Jake McDorman. 'Mrs Davis' is a war between faith and computers that will premiere with the first four episodes on April 20. The other episodes will air weekly following the release.
