Get ready to sit down and lose it — HBO Max has just unveiled the first official trailer for its upcoming offbeat comedy series, The Chair Company, and it’s as bizarre and brilliant as you'd expect from creators Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin. Best known for their sketch comedy chaos in I Think You Should Leave, the duo is back with a full-blown series that blends awkward workplace moments with a deep (and deeply absurd) conspiracy.
The Chair Company stars Tim Robinson as William Ronald Trosper, a seemingly average employee who spirals into a rabbit hole of paranoia after a hilariously humiliating incident at work. What starts as a moment of shame soon turns into a madcap investigation uncovering secrets no one asked for — all somehow tied to chairs, corporations, and questionable decisions.
Joining the chaos is a stellar cast including Lake Bell, Sophia Lillis, Will Price, Joseph Tudisco, and the legendary Lou Diamond Phillips — because why not? With Andrew DeYoung directing all eight episodes, the show is set to deliver a mix of cringe, conspiracy, and comedy that walks the line between the surreal and the sharply satirical.
HBO Max is positioning The Chair Company as one of its major comedy drops of the year, tapping into that sweet spot between dark humor and corporate absurdity. If the trailer is anything to go by, expect office chairs, awkward silences, wildly unnecessary scheming, and a whole lot of Robinson-style meltdown energy.
The 8-episode series begins streaming on October 12, 2025, and if you're a fan of unconventional comedies with weirdly deep storylines, this one’s about to be your new obsession. Just remember: it all started with a chair.
