The first episode of “Dig” will be released on Peacock on Nov. 23. The series will have 10 episodes in total, and all are expected to drop on Peacock on that date.

The easiest way to watch “Dig” when it premieres is to subscribe to one of Peacock’s plans. Premium costs $11 per month and is ad-supported, while Premium Plus costs $17 per month and is ad-free. Both get you the full season as soon as it drops, plus the complete Peacock streaming library.
