Peacock Drops First Look at Hugh Laurie and Amy Poehler in ‘Dig’ From Mike Schur and J.J. Philbin
Peacock unveils first‑look images for Amy Poehler‑led comedy “Dig”, locking in a November 23 debut
What happened
The visual package pairs Amy Poehler with Hugh Laurie and is created by Mike Schur and J.J. The Hollywood Reporter published the same images moments later, confirming the premiere window. The series has been ordered for ten episodes, positioning it as a flagship comedy for the streamer’s fall slate. Give Me My Remote reiterated the November launch and noted the ten‑episode order.
Collider described the show as a ten‑part successor to ‘Parks & Rec’, emphasizing Schur’s involvement. TVLine reinforced the fall‑season timing, stating the series will join Peacock’s upcoming lineup. The series aims to attract both comedy fans and broader streaming audiences. Yahoo and Entertainment Weekly, however, mention only the month of November without a day.
This minor inconsistency is the sole divergence among the reports; all agree on the starring duo, creators, episode count and platform. Current coverage confirms that ‘Dig’ will premiere on Peacock in late November 2026, featuring Poehler and Laurie under the direction of Schur and Philbin. No plot details or promotional schedule have been disclosed, and the series remains slated for a ten‑episode run. The release positions the comedy as a central component of Peacock’s fall programming strategy, with further announcements expected closer to the launch.
