Peacock has today given a series order to the original comedy series Dig which will reunite Parks and Recreation creator Mike Schur with star Amy Poehler. The duo co-write the premiere, with Poehler set to star.
Based on the novel "Excavations" by Kate Myers, four women working at an archeological dig in Greece are at wildly different crossroads in their lives. When the team uncovers a long-buried secret with the potential to rewrite history, they find themselves at the center of a high-stakes international conspiracy.
Schur and Poehler will executive produce with J.J. Philbin, Morgan Sackett, Dave Becky, David Miner, Sharon Jackson, Kate Arend and Jordan Grief. Myers will serve as a co-executive producer. Universal Television, Fremulon, Paper Kite Productions, 3 Arts Entertainment and Ocean Avenue Entertainment will produce.
