Sketch comedy can be incredibly hit or miss. I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinsonis a relentlessly bizarre hit.
I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinsonis a new sketch comedy show on Netflix created by Saturday Night Live'sand Detroiters' Tim Robinson (obviously) and Zach Kanin that leans in hard to its strange characters and scenarios to hilarious effect. I almost spit out my coffee during the first episode.
I Think You Should Leaveis consistently surprising, and its sketches contain so many hard left turns, it's impossible to know where anything is headed.

But the majority of sketches are wildly funny without ever overstaying their welcome.
Robinson stars in the majority of sketches (with Kanin making some small appearances here and there) and consistently nails his characters and delivery. He frequently gets himself into embarrassing situations and doubles down instead of admitting his mistakes, leading to overly dramatic situations delivered with complete sincerity.

One of the best sketches, in the first episode of the show, stars Bayer at brunch with her friends. Her delivery of her shockingly mean lines is so perfect, she instantly creates an unforgettable scene.

What's better than that?
