Peacock lets us Dig into its first look at new  Amy Poehler-led comedy

What happens when all your TV favorites—The Office‘s Mike Schur, New Girl‘s J.J. Philbin, Parks & Recreation‘s Amy Poehler, and House‘s Hugh Laurie—walk into an archaeological site in Greece? You get Dig, a new comedy from husband-wife duo Schur and Philbin. Peacock released a first look and premiere date for its upcoming series, and it’s safe to say we’re not in Pawnee anymore. 

Based on Kate Myers’ book, the 10-episode Dig centers on a team of four archaeologists, played by Poehler, Geraldine Viswanathan, Antonia Thomas, and Fina Strazza, who spend their summer at a dig site in Greece. They butt heads with an old-school British professor, Neville (Laurie), who falsely believes he’s their mentor and strives to uphold the profession’s traditions. Of course, the women stumble into an international conspiracy when they discover a rare artifact, and they have to figure out how to use this secret to their advantage. 

The show reunites Parks & Rec‘s Schur and Poehler together after NBC’s mockumentary ended in 2015. The ensemble also includes Kayvan Novak, Jon Pointing, and Bonita Friedericy. 

Dig arrives just in time for the Thanksgiving break on November 23. You can check out the first look photos below:
