A New Comedy Show Tackles a Problem with School Prayer

Comedian Jerrod Carmichael has a new show coming out this fall on NBC and the first trailer tells us three things:

1) Whoever makes the trailers doesn’t even know how to spell the title character’s last name.

2) Based on this clip, I’m giving the show a half-season before it’s canceled. (What’s known in the comedy business as a Full Mulaney.)

3) Prayer in school is fodder for humor. The joke in the trailer isn’t bad, and if the religious mother serves as a comedy source, there’s plenty of material to work with. It would be entertaining to see a primetime show that isn’t afraid to poke fun at religion.
