Heh! Beat me to it, I was just about to make a thread on this, it looks really good.

An action thriller, “Dig” tells the story of a murder mystery set against the backdrop of modern day Jerusalem, a city shrouded in ancient intrigue. FBI agent Peter Connelly (Golden Globe nominee Jason Isaacs, “Awake”) has had his fair share of heartbreak. Anxious to leave his personal demons behind, Peter takes a job stationed in Israel under the guidance of his new boss, and occasional lover, Lynn Monahan (Emmy Award-winner Anne Heche, “Save Me”). When he sets out to solve the murder of a young American, Peter soon finds himself embroiled in an international mystery that delves into the Holy Land’s darkest secrets. What he discovers is a conspiracy thousands of years in-the-making that threatens to change the course of history. While Peter races to figure out what it all means, he quickly finds that he may not be the only one searching for answers.

The highly anticipated event series premieres on Thursday, March 5, 2015 on USA.

It does look good, I love Jason Isaacs as well.

They've also written an official prequel, to be found here: http://www.wattpad.com/60990671-dig-the-official-prequel-chapter-1

anyone looking forward to this starting tomorrow night?... it has the look and feel of an epic movie and I can't wait to check it out... I hope it does good from what I've seen, but jesus, can you talk about being overwhelmed and flooded with promos for the last couple of months?... I don't think I've ever seen any show being pushed as much as this one's been... it better be worth the OVER-hype... at least it has two good things going for it with Jason Isaacs and Anne Heche... we shall see...

I've heard it's a bit of a muddled mess.

I found the pilot an absolute chore to sit through, doubt I'll bother with episode 2.

I felt the same way. Lots of stuff happened yet totally boring. Weird.

I tried watching it last night and couldn't finish .

 

[THUNDERSTRIKE]

I don't know... I followed the story with no problem... agreed that it was slow at some points, but for a first episode, it need that time to get the story across and set it up for future eps... it looked like it was gonna be confusing, but I followed the entire thing with absolutely no problem... the next couple of weeks will make the decision for me as to whether I'll continue, depending how things go... I also think maybe the location of Jerusalem as a setting might be a little different and visually jarring for a weekly series...

It was just so dreary and bland, and mixed up in what it is actually trying to be. This and Fortitude have both been letdowns for me.

I hear the premiere ratings are not so hot .

Starts here in Australia this month. The trailer looks pretty good and I like the premise of addressing the prophecies in the Bible.
