The Creators of Netflix’s Funniest TV Show Just Launched a New Series on HBO (And It Feels Destined to Be a Classic)

HBO and HBO Max are shifting their focus when it comes to comedy. With the recent conclusion of *The Righteous Gemstones*, which had been a leading comedy series for the network, there’s an opening for a new show. It looks like the creators of the popular Netflix comedy *I Think You Should Leave* might be taking on that role.

HBO recently debuted a new comedy series, The Chair Company, from the creators of the hit Netflix show I Think You Should Leave: Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin. This new series is their latest collaboration, and Robinson also stars in it. His unique comedic style is a big reason both shows have become so popular.

The new comedy series, *The Chair Company*, launched its first episode this weekend and is now available on HBO Max. While shows like *I Think You Should Leave* are sketch-based, *The Chair Company* tells one continuous story throughout the season. This makes it a strong contender to become HBO’s next major comedy hit, potentially following in the footsteps of *The Righteous Gemstones*.

The Chair Company Is a Must-See Series

Robinson’s latest series skillfully mixes dark humor with a playful, often disrespectful tone, injecting moments of lightheartedness into what could have been a very heavy story.

The show centers around a man convinced he’s stumbled into a conspiracy when a chair collapses on him during a crucial presentation. While everyone else sees it as a simple accident, he’s certain something bigger is at play, and his relentless search for the truth takes over his life.

What’s enjoyable about *The Chair Company* is how it keeps you guessing. Just when you think you understand what’s happening, new clues appear, hinting that a character who seems out of touch might actually be right. The first episode doesn’t confirm anything, leaving you to wonder if these clues are real or if you’re simply being led astray.

The series is off to a great start and looks like it will only get more exciting as the first season progresses. We hope the story allows *The Chair Company* to grow and continue for many seasons to come.

Besides *The Chair*, HBO Max launched a bunch of new comedy movies at the beginning of October. Here’s a list of all the comedies added to the streaming service on October 1st.
