Nearly three years to the day since the show premiered on Comedy Central, the adult animated comedy Digman! will bring the archaeologist’s misadventures to streaming through a new licensing deal with Netflix. Season 1 of the Andy Samberg-starring 2D series will be available to stream on the platform for U.S. subscribers starting Tuesday, March 17.
The Digman! acquisition is believed to be part of the licensing pact with Paramount announced by Netflix during its Q4 earnings call, alongside live-action hits like SEAL Team and Watson.
Written and produced by Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning actor and producer Samberg (Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Palm Springs) — in his first animated series venture — along with co-creator and showrunner Neil Campbell (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), the half-hour animated series is set in a world where archaeologists are massive celebrities and the coolest people on the planet, with Samberg providing the voice of the protagonist, Rip Digman.
The series follows Rip Digman, a once-legendary adventurer who was fired from the Smithsonian a decade ago. Along with his ambitious assistant Saltine, Rip embarks on a quest for legendary artifacts to reclaim his former glory and prove he’s still the world’s greatest swashbuckling historian.
Digman! also features the voices of Mitra Jouhari (Three Busy Debras), Tim Robinson (I Think You Should Leave), Dale Soules (Orange Is the New Black), Guz Khan (Our Flag Means Death), Melissa Fumero (Brooklyn Nine-Nine) and Tim Meadows (The Goldbergs). S1’s extensive voice cast roster included Clancy Brown (SpongeBob SquarePants, Fallout), Harvey Guillén (The Thundermans), Cole Escola, Jane Lynch (iCarly), Daniel Radcliffe, Maya Rudolph, Jason Schwartzman, Lauren Lapkus, Kirby Howell-Baptiste and Joe Lo Truglio, among others.
Season 2 of Digman! (packed with even more pedigreed comedy guests) premiered in July of 2025. The series is awaiting a full third season order from Comedy Central. In an interview with ScreenRant this month, Samberg shared, “We don’t know officially, but it’s not dead. It’s still being discussed. And I love that show. I make it with Neil Campbell, and the writers we’ve had are so incredibly funny. That’s a show where I know we’ve done really well by Comedy Central standards. I think they’ve been really happy with it[.]”
Netflix release plans for Digman! S2 and any international streaming territories are yet to be confirmed.
Digman! is created by Samberg and Campbell and produced by CBS Studios alongside Ali Bell and The Lonely Island’s Party Over Here banner. Titmouse Executive Produces, with their own Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio and Ben Kalina. The series is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
