On the heels of theGoing Dutchtrailer released earlier this month, FOX has teamed up with Collider to share an exclusive first look at the series' poster. With a release date set for January 2, the comedy series starsDenis Leary(Law & Order: Organized Crime) as a U.S. Army Colonel who is tasked with reinstating discipline and professionalism to a group of military officers who are loose cannons. The problem is, they are stationed on a base that has no guns, no weapons and no tactical purpose whatsoever.
The poster teases that the characters, or at the very least Leary, are stuck in afish-out-of-water situation. They’re all immersed in a vast yellow tulip field. In a previously released teaser,FOXdubbed theGoing Dutchmilitary base the “least important” in the world, so you can imagine the kind of useless missions they’ll have to deal with on a daily basis. The title of the series hails from its starting point: Patrick Quinn (Leary) is sent to the Netherlands as a punishment for being an arrogant loudmouth and going on a rant that practically erases his three decades of servicein war zones.
The cast ofGoing Dutchsuggests this might be one of the must-watch series from 2025. Aside from Leary, it featuresTaylor Misiak(Dave),Danny Pudi(Community),Laci Mosely(Florida Girls) andHal Cumpston(The Artful Dodger). FOX also announced thatJoe Morton(Terminator 2: Judgment Day),Catherine Tate(The Office) andDempsey Bryk(Willow) have been cast in “heavily recurring roles,” which suggests that we’ll see them several times throughout the season.

“Going Dutchcaptures Denis’s comic genius and in-your-face storytelling style. Denis, Jack and our showrunner and creator Joel have brilliantly envisioned this original, offbeat take and inherently funny salute to the military workplace comedy.
