The Chair Company release schedule: When do new episodes of the latest HBO show drop? 

The Chair Company is standing out as HBO's wildest and freshest show this fall.

From Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin, the comedic thriller explores the fallout from a humiliating workplace mishap that spirals into a conspiracy of absurd proportions.

The series follows Ron Trosper, an office worker who gets caught up in his own investigation, testing the limits of both logic and sanity. I Think You Should Leave's Tim Robinson delivers that same surreal sensibility throughout a story that combines paranoia, unease, and comedy in stunningly precise fashion.

In true Robinson fashion, the actor makes The Chair Company extraordinary. Initial reviews indicate that this confluence of bleak satire, office mayhem, and soul-crushing loneliness has resonated with critics and audiences. Spanning eight episodes, its rollercoaster mystery-comedy ride introduces us to Ron as he journeys into the maze of his own design.

The Chair Company release schedule: When do the new episodes release?

New episodes of The Chair Company will air on HBO on Thursdays, 10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT. They can also be watched on HBO Max. This season contains 8 episodes, running from October 12 to November 30. Each edition will further delve into Ron’s ridiculous investigation, making viewers question until the end. Here is the complete release schedule for The Chair Company:

Before its TV premiere, The Chair Company received a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics lauded its originality, sharp writing from Robinson and Kanin, and the manner in which it seamlessly integrates cringeworthy comedy with thriller tropes.

Tim Robinson continues to show why his brand of comedy shines. In the show, he brings that comedic intensity into a longer form, narrative format as Ron Trosper, a man whose small humiliation at work escalates into a madcap investigation.

Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin, creators of Detroiters and I Think You Should Leave, reunite with director Andrew DeYoung for The Chair Company. Executive producers include Adam McKay and Todd Schulman from HyperObject Industries, alongside DeYoung and Igor Srubshchik. Together, they craft a world that feels both painfully familiar and wonderfully strange. The synopsis of the show, as per IMDb, reads:

"Follows a man who investigates a conspiracy after an embarrassing incident at work."

The Chair Company is a modern workplace comedy about anxiety and image collapse. The “chair incident” which sets the series in motion has been kept secret by HBO, which has stressed that the incident is meaningless to everyone but Ron himself, a sign of how minor embarrassments can fuel major delusions.

Critics have compared Ron to Robinson’s previous archetypes: men who presumptuously think they know the rules of the world but who don’t play by them, and whose confidence shakes them into comedic paranoia.

As the season progresses, audiences can expect to see much of Robinson’s classic mix of absurd humor and existential dread. While divisive to some, the show is shaping up to be one of HBO’s most daring and unique sensations, capturing the comedic terror of self-sabotage as only Tim Robinson can.
