James Van Der Beek, or Dawson as he likes to be called, played Diplo in a sketch last year, and now that morsel of an idea has been stretched into an entire TV series: What Would Diplo Do?

It’s a six episode series created by Viceland, with both Van Der Beek, and Diplo’s manager Kevin Kusatsu sharing executive producer credits.

The show debuts on August 3. Check out the trailer below.
