The first episode aired last night. Definitely interesting. Has a Curb-like cringe factor but it's not necessarily a straight comedy. I've never really watched anything Tim Robinson has done but I've known about him for years because of the hot dog suit meme.

We thought the first episode was hilarious. I've also been aware of Tim and lots of what he's done but the only thing we've actually watched (just in the last couple of weeks) was the Friendship movie with Paul Rudd, which was wild.

I especially enjoyed the part where he was on the phone trying to get in contact with the company that manufactured the chair that broke, that one and the opening scene where he was at dinner with the family and the servers kept trying to clear the plates. Then the egg that he insists on taking home winds up being a factor in the storyline.

The hardest I laughed was the the payoff to the guy unbuttoning his shirt in the chase scene. It’s One Battle After Another and then ep 1 of this show for chase scenes this year.

Oh fuck, and dabbing the hair with printer paper

Love it, this is exactly how you take a TR character and make it work with a longer format. Friendship failed to do that well enough to make it believable, and it showed. I like how he lies to get through difficulties with the normies, it helps hide his truly weird nature and will allow him to build up that steam inside until he ultimately explodes. It has a lot of potential, and I can't wait to see where it goes.

HBO said it was their best comedy premiere in 5 years with over 1.5m viewers. Don't you think that is really quite weird?

Why did he put toilet paper all in his pants? Did I miss something there?

I think the scream or whatever heard scared him so bad that he didn't bother to get himself good and cleaned up after having diarrhea so he just stuffed paper in underwear and got the fuck out of there. I thought for sure there was going to be a scat-related joke when he got to the office.

I'm not a Tim Robinson fan, but this show is fantastic. 

"Well, it really wasn't a well-behaved dog."

I don’t get this. This is basically a prolonged itysl sketch. Each scene could almost be its own sketch.

I don't understand it either. I tried to get through ITYSL last year and only watched a couple of episodes. I did enjoy Detroiters, but that was all because of Sam Richardson.

the first time i watched a few episodes of ITYSL i thought it was the dumbest thing i'd ever seen. a few months later i revisited and, while it remained amazingly stupid, i recognized that it's also genius.  it is absolutely an acquired taste and there was something about it that compelled me to go back and give it a fresh look.

Caught up with the second episode during lunch today. Anybody know how many episodes this is going to be?

Can somebody tell me what the absolute fuck was going on in the diner? I'm digging it. Pretty sure Tim Robinson/Ron screaming in the back alley will make for a well-used GIF.
