Peacock has released a new teaser trailer for Craig Robinson‘s new series Killing It.
So, Duke, are you saying that you want Craig Robinson to work on Craig Robinson and stream it for free?
Yes please! When the teaser starts with Robinson talking about how the kimono he’s wearing was made for the Emperor of Japan,
He just hangs there, hard to miss.
Here is the synopsis for the show:
“‘Killing It’ is a comedy about a man who pursues class, capitalism and the American dream.
And he hunts really big snakes.”
Well, there’s definitely a really big snake in the teaser.
I don’t know why it’s there, but does it matter? Obviously this show is about a man who once made a lot of money,
wears a kimono in a very nice house, and for some reason a snake appears.
That’s all I need to know.
Killing It came to us from the folks behind Brooklyn NineNine, including Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici, and will start streaming on Peacock this April.
 They are listed as co-showrunners, writers and executive producers. In a statement, Gur said:
“We love all the ambitious, challenging, thematically-rich series that populate the current peak-TV landscape. We also love jokes. So, we tried to make a show that could deliver both. We wanted ‘Killing It’ to explore America’s quasi-religious obsession with entrepreneurship and wealth, and we also wanted it to be funny. Really, really funny. Plus, we wanted it to have big snakes.”Â
Robinson, Mark Schulman and Mo Marable are also executive producers for the series.
Marble directs the first three episodes.
Produced by Universal Television.
In addition to Robinson, it also stars Claudia O’Doherty, Rell Battle, Scott MacArthur, Stephanie Nogueras, Wyatt Walter and Jet Miller.
The first season of Kill Him has 10 episodes.
“It’s a daunting creative balancing act, but lucky for us, we were writing for Craig Robinson, aka the most likable man in the world. His hilarious, effortlessly charming performance grounds even the wildest comic moments in something deeply human and relatable.”
Del Tredici
Filming began in New Orleans, Louisiana.
