    What begins as a corporate satire gradually transforms into something far more unsettling. The tone oscillates between dry humor and existential discomfort, carried by a finely calibrated lead performance filled with frustration, obsession, and a deep sense of emptiness. Professional success brings the protagonist no peace; this fragile emotional stability only intensifies his dissatisfaction, making the conspiracy-driven fixation sparked by a workplace incident feel more like a coping mechanism than a symptom of madness. As the narrative unfolds, ordinary situations devolve into grotesque encounters with increasingly bizarre characters, until the whole experience starts to resemble a circus act balanced on the edge of realism. The show can be awkward, draining, and deliberately uncomfortable to watch, yet it’s difficult to look away. I found myself laughing mostly out of second-hand embarrassment, often tinged with unease. Not everything works perfectly, but the series leaves a mark and offers the rare feeling of engaging with something distinct and genuinely thought-provoking.

    Avoid at ALL costs. One of those awful Yiddite ham acted flicks that makes you wonder who gave these idiots the money to make this terrifyingly bad shit.

    This show is brilliant. Favorite thing I've seen in years, especially since Barry finished. It's so weird and funny, so well shot and produced, the music choices are *chefs kiss*, it has this tone that's never really been done beore. In a world of rehashes and unoriginal concepts, this is something else.

    I loved "I think you should leave" and have been watching Tim Robinson stuff ever since. I am still waiting to be able to recommend a single thing to at least one other person. It seems like he is afraid to hire an editor so the end product is always a jumbled mess that makes little to no sense. All his stuff just ends without any satisfying conclusion. Which is fine for me when they are 5-8 minute sketches but when it is an 8 episode series it is a real let down. It seems like they just wrote until they either ran out of paper or it was time to start filming. If you like Tim Robinson this will make you laugh but I can not in good conscious recommend anyone watch this.

    You're either going to love this show or hate it. Tim Robinson has a very unique comedic style that is very polarizing. If you dont think the first episode is funny I'd stop there. If you do though - you're in for a fun absurd awkward ride.

    A man and a chair. Absolute cinema. Multiple times asked myself where the fuck is this going? No seriously, this is one of the most unique series I've seen in ages. Hats off to Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin

    Exhausting with literally no payoff.

    Completely original show that almost defies explanation. It's sort of comedy, sort of drama, sort of thriller, but not really any of those. Tim Robinson as Ron is fantastic and slots perfectly into the constant shift between suburban normality and a slightly-off version of reality. Nothing is ever clear and you're constantly led to question what's real and what's in Ron's obsessive mind. If you've watched his sketch show you'll be used to the mix of scenes where sometimes Tim's character is the normal one, sometimes he's the weird one in a normal world, and sometimes that dynamic changes through the sketch. In this show it changes constantly. The supporting cast are all incredible and also fit the mould of seeming 'normal' until they don't. The pacing is great and I'm actually glad it's released weekly because I wouldn't be able to resist binging it, but that would do it a disservice. Put simply, it is one of the most original and engrossing series' I have ever seen and I can't recommend it enough. Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin are masterful writers and I hope networks/streamers keep giving them money to do their thing, because everyone wins.

    This whole show feels like an inside joke that if you weren’t in on from the beginning, you just won’t catch on. I really tried to like it given that I keep hearing great things, but I think it’s just not for me.

    I read on here where somebody made the statement that it was one of the best first episodes of a series they never seen, while guessing that they have never seen a previous first episode or they're legally blind, being sarcastic, but honest to God it was everything I could force myself to watch that whole first episode all the way through before I deleted it and then went back to look at the reviews. I have a hard time understanding how somebody could take circumstances from current life that are ungodly frustrating and painful and anger producing and turn it into a comedy? Maybe everyday average folks who will watch just about anything, such as myself should write more reviews.
