Peacock's DIG trailer has viewers looking for Brennan Lee Mulligan

The archaeology comedy arrives November 23, with Amy Poehler, Hugh Laurie and Geraldine Viswanathan among its cast.

Peacock posted a busy mix of trailers, sitcom scenes and movie clips, but DIG gave viewers a particular reason to pause: several commenters spotted Brennan Lee Mulligan and immediately started talking about the Dropout performer. In a trailer packed with recognizable comedy faces, a brief appearance became a conversation of its own.

The week's most-watched upload reached roughly 720,000 views. Its Greek excavation site offers more than ancient history: Amy Poehler's site leader and her colleagues uncover a buried bust, scheme to secure credit for the discovery and find themselves under scrutiny. Hugh Laurie's professor complicates matters by announcing his retirement privately, then publicly deciding to stay. The trailer is promotional, but it gives the workplace comedy a distinctly conspiratorial turn.

Viewers are making connections across the cast's other work, particularly Poehler's Parks and Recreation, while one commenter describes an archaeology group chat debating the accuracy. Others are focused squarely on Mulligan, whose tabletop storytelling on Dimension 20 gives him a different route into this ensemble's audience.

DIG also carries the most daily momentum among Peacock's uploads right now. The SNL UK "LagOz" parody is another active draw, alongside a Parks and Recreation party clip. Elsewhere in the week's selection, Modern Family turns Mitchell's story about Lily's mother into a costume-party misunderstanding, and Two and a Half Men gives Alan an unwelcome encounter over his hair.

Peacock added about 10,000 subscribers over the week, with daily viewing moderately above its usual pace. Among its nearby television and streaming peers, Bravo and HBO Max are having quieter viewing days than usual; South Park Studios is drawing a pronounced lift. Peacock's own week combines that broad library traffic with a new comedy whose comments keep circling back to a fleeting cast sighting.

  • The existence of Dig and Digger implies the possibility of Diggest

  • Plot twist--the dig site ends up being Lot 48 in Pawnee, Indiana. The recently-completed Pawnee Commons must be razed due to the historical nature of the artifact(s) in question.
  • Brennan Lee Mulligan!!!

  • Unearthing ancient relics on a dig site in Greece is one wild interpretation of Parks and Recreation.
