Now, comedy fans have a reason to celebrate as Emmy-winning comedian Tim Robinson is coming back to television with a brand-new comedy series. Moreover, HBO confirmed that the series will debut on the 12th of October 2025. Moreover, the new episode will stream weekly until the season finale on 30 November.
A Fresh Storytelling Approach
Unlike Robinson’s cult-favorite Netflix sketch series, I Think You Should Leave, The Chair Company is going to follow a continuous storyline. However, the eight-series storyline stars Robinson as William Ronald Trosper. He is a man whose life is thrown into chaos after an embarrassing workplace moment leads him to discover a bizarre conspiracy.
It blends workplace comedy with the mystery. Moreover, the show is set to deliver the signature mix of awkward humor, satire, and absurd storytelling for which Robinson is famous. In addition, it appeals to fans of The Office and others’ Robinson works.
Star-Studded Cast and Characters
The cast of this upcoming series has popular Hollywood names. We have listed the complete list of cast below:
- Lake Bell stars as Barb Trosper, William’s partner.
- Sophia Lillis plays Natalie Trosper, and Will Price portrays Seth Trosper, completing the family dynamic.
- Joseph Tudisco joins as Mike Santini.
- Lou Diamond Phillips has a recurring role as Jeff Levjman.
This strong cast is expected to boost the unique comedic narrative of the show. So, you can expect a more enjoyable show.
The Creative Team Behind The Chair Company
Tim Robinson and longtime collaborator Zach Kanin co-created the series under the executive production of Adam McKay and Todd Schulman of HyperObject Industries. Moreover, Directors Andrew DeYoung (Friendship) and Aaron Schimberg are going to bring the quirky tone of the show to life.
Tim Robinson legacy

Robinson started his career with Saturday Night Live. Moreover, he has built a strong legacy in comedy through projects like Detroiters and I Think You Should Leave. Now, his new HBO Venture is considered a bold step, as he moves from a sketch-based format to a serialized narrative.
Why This Matters
The investment of the HBO in Robinson’s comedy highlights the growing demand of fresh and offbeat storytelling in global entertainment. Moreover, the series adds to the rich lineup of streaming content that offers humor and intrigue for audiences in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and beyond.
