> It's a smart satire with kinship to Falling Down or a Mike Judge project, but with the audience-engaging emotionality and physicality of Rowan Atkinson or Sasha Baron cohen.
I'm a fan of the projects and people you mentioned, and quirky/smart/satirical comedy in the style of Monty Python and The Whitest Kids U Know is my kind of humor.
And yet, the work of Tim Robinson does nothing for me. I found I Think You Should Leave unamusing to the point of boredom. It tries really hard to do what you mentioned, yet comes off as the opposite: not smart, poorly satirical, and plain unfunny. I saw the trailer for The Chair Company and I get very similar vibes, so I'll avoid it, just like all Tim Robinson projects.
Tim Robinson is clearly successful and has a following, but I think his work is nowhere near the quality of the projects he tries to emulate.
