Parks and Recreation's Amy Poehler and Mike Schur Reteaming for Dig Comedy Series at Peacock
Ten years after Parks and Recreation wrapped on NBC, Amy Poehler and Mike Schur are breaking ground on a new TV collaboration.
The pair is behind Dig, a new comedy ordered to series at Peacock on Wednesday. Poehler and Schur will co-write the pilot episode and serve as executive producers, while Poehler will also star in the project.

An adaptation of Kate Myers' 2023 novel Excavations, Dig follows four women working at an archaeological dig in Greece, all of whom are at wildly different crossroads in their lives. 'When the team uncovers a long-buried secret with the potential to rewrite history,' the logline reads, 'they find themselves at the center of a high-stakes international conspiracy.'
Dig marks Poehler and Schur's first creative team-up since Parks and Recreation, which ended in 2015 after a seven-season run on NBC. Other Dig EPs include Myers, J.J. Philbin, Morgan Sackett, Dave Becky, David Miner, Sharon Jackson, Kate Arend and Jordan Grief.
Since Parks and Recreation concluded, Poehler's TV credits have included Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning and the animated series Duncanville and Dream Productions (where she voices her Inside Out character of Joy). Schur, meanwhile, has since created or co-created NBC's The Good Place, Peacock's Rutherford Falls and Netflix's A Man on the Inside, now in production on its second season.
