Audiences are finally getting their first look at NBC‘s upcoming series Sunset P.I., which brings New Girl favorite Jake Johnson back to network comedy.

Hailing from Brooklyn Nine-Nine‘s Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici, Sunset P.I. is an all-new workplace comedy following Mickey Wilder (Johnson) and the other private investigators at his Hollywood detective agency.  Set to premiere on Monday, February 8, 2027, the show also stars Jane Levy, Keith David, Langston Kerman, and Mary Shalaby.

Along with serving as co-creators and writers, Goor and Del Tredici executive produce the series with director Akiva Schaffer, making it a must-see TV event. When we caught up with Goor at New York Comic Con in October, he gushed over Johnson, saying, “Jake is like a generational talent. He is so funny, he’s so good on set, he’s just unreal to be around.”

While no major plot details are revealed in the newly released images that offer a clearer picture of what fans can expect, they certainly set a tone. Taking the title rather seriously, these first-look photos reveal a sunset glow over the Hollywood offices where Mickey and his crew operate their business.

In anticipation of the show’s premiere, get a closer look at the stars in character with the first photos from Sunset P.I. below, and stay tuned for more in the months ahead.
