NBC is doubling down on comedy with its 2016-17 offerings and hopes to bring back its iconic Thursday block in the fall with Mike Schur’s The Good Place (the Kristen Bell and Ted Danson high-concept afterlife half-hour) and, at midseason, new series Powerless (DC Comics’ first half-hour) and the Tina Fey-produced Great News.
As part of the hoped-for comedy turnaround, Salke pledged, “we won’t cancel shows quickly.”
