Amy Poehler Leads Young Women Archaeologists in Peacock's New Comedy 'Dig' — Watch the First Trailer

Peacock has released the first official trailer for 'Dig,' a new comedy series starring Amy Poehler, co-created by Michael Schur of 'Parks and Recreation' and 'The Good Place' fame. The 10-episode show premieres on the streaming platform on November 23. Poehler plays Elise, a seasoned archaeologist who leads a team of young women on an important dig. In the trailer, Elise delivers a no-nonsense briefing to her crew, hinting at the humor and mentorship dynamics to come. The series promises Poehler's signature comedic style while shining a light on women in science—a timely and underrepresented theme in mainstream entertainment. With Schur's track record for heartfelt, character-driven comedy, 'Dig' is poised to be a must-watch for fans of smart, female-led storytelling. The show's focus on discovery and teamwork could resonate beyond laughs, offering a fresh take on archaeology and female ambition. As streaming competition heats up, Peacock is betting on star power and proven creative talent to draw subscribers this fall.
