Peacock has released the official trailer for Dig, an upcoming comedy series by Amy Poehler and Michael Schur (Parks and Recreation, The Good Place). 

Based on the novel Excavations by Kate Myers, Dig follows a group of archeologists and students working on a Greek excavation site. However, the expedition takes an unexpected turn when they discover a rare artefact. 

"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," Dig's logline reads.

Led by Poehler, Dig's cast features Geraldine Viswanathan (Bad Education), Fina Strazza (Paper Girls), Antonia Thomas (The Good Doctor), and Hugh Laurie (House). The trailer teases a few other familiar faces as well, including Jason Mantzoukas (Taskmaster) and Brennan Lee Mulligan (Dimension 20).

Dig premieres Nov. 23 on Peacock.
