As dramatic as this all sounds, The Chair Company is very much a comedy, and by far the funniest show of the year.

The Chair Company not only finds Robinson delivering some of his most gleefully inspired nonsense to date, but it’s also a vicious parody of so many TV conventions.

I haven’t laughed this hard at a television show so frequently & consistently in a long time. They nailed Tim Robinson’s humor with the direction and overall tone, it’s so unpredictable and irreverent and packed with delightfully quirky characters. I’m looking forward to rewatching this series already to catch all the little things I’ve missed from laughing hysterically. I’m so glad there’s going to be a season 2 of this, there haven’t been enough truly funny television comedies recently. If you like highly quotable absurdist humor & Lynchian mystery then you will probably love this madcap mix of the two.

Fans of I Think You Should Leave, Robinson and Kanin’s cheerfully bizarre sketch-comedy series, will find The Chair Company suitably weird. Even when the show starts to drag, as one lead after another dead-ends and new questions emerge, it’s hard to drop. What keeps The Chair Company engaging are its spurts of tangential lunacy.

All comedy is essentially about surprises and in The Chair Company, you can’t tell exactly when the next massive, stupid laugh is coming. Ron’s colleagues are just the right amount of wacky, too.

Tim Robinson returns with another hilarious cringe comedy, but the emphasis is on cringe, which makes “The Chair Company” an acquired taste that not everyone will want to acquire.

If you’re already on his vibe, you’ll find a lot to laugh – and scream – about in this hybrid comedy-thriller that exists at the midpoint of sitcom and extended I Think You Should Leave sketch. More than anything, it shows Robinson isn’t just a one-trick pony, and may in fact be the perfect addition to HBO’s comedy line-up alongside Danny McBride and Nathan Fielder.

It’s all just entertaining enough to make up for the show’s scattershot storytelling.

The Narrative is utterly gripping from the first frame to the last. The plot is cleverly constructed, avoiding predictable turns and keeping the audience completely invested in the journey of the central characters. It manages to balance deeply emotional depth with moments of genuine excitement and suspense. The pacing is impeccable, allowing the story to breathe while maintaining a forward momentum that never lags.

Not the biggest fan of Tim Robinson but some gags were great and the mystery was compelling.

I find it somewhat entertaining but not really funny. I guess the parts people find funny are the ones in which I find them kind of cringy. But even though I don't this show funny I am very interested where it ends up going so I will continue watching. Right now I am through episode 6.

You either like this guy's "humor" or you don't. I can't stand it, not even a little. Operates on a different wavelength, not a better or worse one. And it's no wonder critics liked it.

It's comparable to every scene of a sketch comedy show that was removed from each episode's script and then sewn together into an unenjoyable series that has little to no reason for existing.
