Comedian Tim Robinson's Chaotic New Series "The Chair Company" Explores Modern Conspiracies

In October 2025, comedian Tim Robinson released his latest project, "The Chair Company," which is being hailed as his most ambitious and incisive work to date. The series uses the trappings of ordinary office life as a springboard to explore sharp and surprising ideas about people and their deepening anxieties in the modern world.

At the center of the story is Ron, an oddball office worker heading up a project to build a mall. After an embarrassing incident involving an office chair, Ron becomes fixated on proving there is a nefarious conspiracy surrounding the chair that no one else can see. As he frantically investigates, the series delves into the emotional reasons behind Ron's descent into madness, blending the comedic chaos that Robinson is known for with an unexpectedly tragic dimension.

Through Ron's increasingly unhinged quest, "The Chair Company" taps into the distinct strangeness of the present moment, where people's anxieties can manifest into a need for grand conspiracies that give them a false sense of agency. The show's eccentric supporting cast, including a standout performance from fellow "SNL" alum Jim Downey, further propels the narrative into glorious absurdity. Yet, at its core, the series remains a sharp and incisive exploration of the human condition, challenging viewers to look at the often deeply messy people living through these strange times.
