Thank God You're Here is an Australian TV show in which performers walking through a door into an unknown situatio are greeted by the line "Thank God you're here!". They then must improvise their way through the scene.

Episode 1.1

 * Shane Bourne: Frank, how are you feeling?
 * Frank Woodley: I’m feeling…I’m feeling… I’m feeling…good! Not cocky, but just feeling, well actually you know what? I’m feeling like I’m a spider of entertainment. And that’s because I’m going to weave a web of comedy from stuff I just pull out of my bum. We’ll see. Fingers crossed.
 * Shane: Oh, I can’t wait. Get the Mortein!


 * Heidi: These products are all good, as the slogan says...
 * Fifi Box: If you can do it, you can!
 * (hooter)


 * Frank: Does yours hurt as much as mine?
 * Gladiator: A little bit.
 * Frank: It’s like agh! (Hits metal on chest.) Far out! They could make them out of mink! It wouldn’t be so good in the battles of course. But in this bit, (Hits metal on chest.) the mink would be better. In the battle, agh, agh! You’re dead!


 * Dan: Tell me, what news from the Eastern Front?
 * Frank: Oh, the barbarians are going off their nut! Hairy, hairy, hairy bastards.


 * Frank: Rome glorious Rome! We root like rabbits.

 * Rome glorious Rome! We will one day rule the universe!
 * Rome glorious Rome! We will turn the barbarian’s scrotums into a purse!


 * Peter Rowsthorn: This one was the dolphin pad, which we have clearly marked ‘H’, because dolphins, they’re high intelligence beings, have their own alphabet. They understand D as an H.

 * Dan: Tom.
 * Heidi: Okay.
 * Frank: No, you are not my friends yet!

Episode 1.3

 * Shane Bourne: Before we start. Frank?
 * Frank Woodley: (Indicates bald head.) This is all I know, They’ve given me this. I’m not sure what that means. I dunno if I’m gonna be a baby or if I’m gonna be sort of um, “Whoa, the power and the passion!” (Dances crazily.)


 * Andrew: How much time would you estimate you’ve taken off in the last six months?
 * Frank: In the last six months?
 * Andrew: Yeah.
 * Frank: Oh, probably not more than six months.


 * Frank: Is your body a temple? I hope it is, although, I hope that a priest hasn’t entered it.


 * Frank: (Indicates clothes.) I must admit I’m starting to think I’m probably not going to be going “Whoa, the power and the passion!” I’m starting to think it’s a different direction.


 * Dan: Thank God you’re here master.
 * Frank: I’m glad to be here. Because I’m always glad for a master of the way always has a happy heart. Even once, I got a pimple on the inside of my buttocks and when I walked it would rub and rub! But that did not deter me from the centre of the way.

<hr width=50%>
 * Frank: (In accent.) Don’t try to eat a stone, you’ll... it’ll hurt! And don’t ever try to throw a feather at someone in anger for the will look at you and just go (Drops accent.)”Well what are you doing?”

<hr width=50%>
 * Dan: Master, lead us in a prayer
 * Frank: Okey, dokey. Great wall of china!

 * Frank: I’m... I’m Ken as well. But I’m Ken, the one who tried to conquer some stuff and didn’t work out.

<hr width=50%>

 * Glenn Robbins: It slices. It dices. But wait, there’s more. It also works as a... Ken?

 * Glenn: Let’s just say, she’s not great at coming up with ideas. She’s much better, Ken, and I think you’ll agree when I say this, at making love.
 * Dan: Ken the non-conqueror, but Ken the wise, tell me, some say the earth is round.
 * Frank: Ha!
 * Dan: Some say the earth is flat. But you say it is neither. Why?
 * Frank: Well, I’ve got a hunch. Because I think it’s like a big skateboard ramp and you head off up into the nothingness, do a bit of a trick, come back. That didn't make any sense, let’s get into the raping!
 * Glenn: Also, he’s not great with the ideas.
 * Dan: Enough! We only have time to pray now. And we must pray to mighty Thor, mighty Oden, please I ask of thee, give me wisdom.
 * Ed: I ask of thee strength. (Points at Glenn.)
 * Glenn: I ask of thee…
 * Akmal: He’s not great with ideas either!
