Amy Poehler doing comedy mixed with mystery sounds like a great combo to me. I watched her for years in Parks and Recreation and she always brings good energy to any role. Hugh Laurie as a strict mentor character also fits him well after House. I am curious how the archaeology setting in Greece will look on screen, hope they filmed some real locations instead of just studio sets. The secret artifact plot with four women keeping it from their boss sounds fun and a bit messy in a good way. I will give this one a try on November 23 for sure.

Fina Strazza getting more TV roles is nice to see, she was really good in Paper Girls. Her character Patty being new and excited about everything probably brings some light comedy moments to balance out the serious conspiracy part. Looking forward to seeing young actors next to veterans like Poehler and Laurie, that mix usually works well for me.

Not sure about this one honestly. The description sounds like too many things stuffed into one show, comedy, mystery, conspiracy, old friendship drama, ex boyfriend drama. Feels like it might lose focus trying to cover everything at once.

I need this on my watchlist right now. Secret artifact, international conspiracy, archaeology dig gone wrong, this sounds exactly like the kind of show I binge in one weekend. November 23 cannot come soon enough for me.

The ex boyfriend and new fiancee situation between Dylan, Gary and Clare feels like unnecessary drama added just to create tension among the main characters. I would prefer the show focus more on the mystery itself instead of relationship problems from the past. Still curious about the artifact part though.

Hugh Laurie playing someone who refuses to retire and takes credit for other people work sounds like a very real type of person we all know in our jobs. I think this casting choice is smart because he can play difficult characters while still being likeable somehow.

Based on the novel Excavations, so the story already has a full arc planned out which usually means better pacing compared to shows made up as they go. Ten episodes feels like the right length too, not too long, not too short.
