The Chair Company

Tim Robinson & Zach Kanin · United States of America · English

A middle manager spirals into paranoia in this unhinged comedy series

Our take by Isabella Endrinal

After being promoted as a project lead, Ron falls down due to his office chair breaking. At first he tries to joke it off, but the work piles on, the expectations get higher, and all he can do is call The Chair Company. It leads him to an unexpected conspiracy that could be a combination of normal corporate bureaucracy, unfortunate coincidence, and stress-induced hallucinations, but the resulting journey is hilarious, cleverly combining Tim Robinson’s cringe comedic talents with a unique brand of thrill. The Chair Company is entirely unexpected, and that is why it might be one of the most original series airing right now.

What happens

After an embarrassing incident at work, suburban family man William Ronald Trosper finds himself investigating a far-reaching conspiracy.
