Tim Robinson’s new HBO series The Chair Company is making waves after its release and has quickly become one of the most talked-about shows of the season.

After briefly falling to number three on HBO Max's U.S. Top 10 list, the series, which debuted on November 4, has now risen back to number two. Robinson, who co-founded The Chair Company with long-time collaborator Zach Kanin and is well-known for his quirky humour in I Think You Should Leave, has produced another successful album.

The show is becoming incredibly popular all over the world, so its success isn't just in the United States. The Chair Company is currently ranked fourth in a number of regions on HBO Max's international charts, and it has peaked at number two in nations like Australia, Belgium, Iceland, Latvia, and Portugal.

Additionally, it will compete against other well-known shows like Rachel Sennott's I Love LA at Home, Smiling Friends, and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. Remarkably, The Chair Company has also achieved success on Amazon Prime Video, where it debuted at number ten in the weekly Top 10 list.

Its success can be attributed to some astounding statistics. The Chair Company was HBO's biggest comedy debut in five years, the strongest since Avenue 5, when it debuted on October 12. On average, 1.4 million people watched the show on U.S. platforms in its first three days.

Now, it sits comfortably among HBO’s most popular titles, alongside hits like Our Flag Means Death and And Just Like That, solidifying Tim Robinson’s reputation as one of television’s most inventive comedic voices.
