In 2006 NBC launched a comedy show called Thank God You're Here that featured various comedians do funny skits and had a team of comedians including Newsradio alum Dave Foley formed a panel judging them on their comedy skits. Thank God You're Here was hosted by David Alan Grier and lasted one season but this show was the funniest show NBC had ever done in history

"Thank God You're Here was hosted by David Alan Grier and lasted one season"

Actually it barely lasted one month, it ran from early April to mid-May of 2007. It did not perform well in the Nielsen ratings and received a mild thumbs down from the TV critics.

"this show was the funniest show NBC had ever done in history"

NBC has had a few other comedy series you might want to consider before making an outlandish statement like that:

The Tonight Show, Parks and Recreation, The Office, Frasier, Seinfeld, Cheers, The Golden Girls, Sanford and Son, Laugh-In, Get Smart, I Dream of Jeannie, Hazel, Your Show of Shows, Texaco Star Theater, just to name a few.
