Thought that maybe he won everybody over. What do you think: Was his intention to crash his car and steal the suits, or did he seize the opportunity? That whole sketch is good as well.Īnother really bad guy.
One of my favorite visual gags is the guy accidentally dressed as a hot dog. Then there's Sam Richardson in “Baby of The Year,” and Vanessa Bayer, in the first episode, who both. Those sketches just happened to end up in the same episode. We knew we wanted to say mud pie a few times, but in this world, people just say mud pie, but the fact that they're back to back was not on purpose. The fact that mudpie ended up in the same episode was not on purpose. Once I got comfortable as a writer I really fell in love with the place. I moved my family, I had kids, moved them from Chicago to here.
I THINK YOU SHOULD LEAVE WITH TIM ROBINSON TV
It was just scary, to go on live TV was scary. I really wanted to do a good job and I was putting a lot of pressure on myself. It's not like there's an atmosphere, I think I was just trying to figure it out. My time as a cast member was scary and sad, and was not fun. In the end, I feel like it worked out really well. I really felt it helped me a lot, where I gained a lot more confidence. I do think that when I became a writer, I felt more comfortable. I do think that if I would have stayed in the cast over time I would have gotten comfortable and been able to do okay. You were on SNL for a year before moving backstage as a writer. She's an electrical engineer for Chrysler. All my family's there, my wife's family's still there too, in the suburbs.
My kids are sad because we got to go back to Detroit every summer, they got to be with their cousins. I'm sure it was important to you to shoot in and pay tribute to a city that's probably the most misunderstood in America right now. It was a dream, I got to do it with Sam, my best friend in the whole world, and it was a dream, in the city we started doing comedy in together, in the city we met in together, so yeah, I was certainly disappointed. Were you disappointed not to get a third season? Even if Netflix asked for season two specifically, I'd have to think about it. Obviously, there are other factors besides myself with Zach, and the Lonely Island guys, and stuff. I need to clear my head and figure it out. Would you wanna do another season I Think You Should Leave, or would it look different? Would it be a different title, would it be a different format?Īgain, that's a great question, and I don't have an answer yet. It starts off as a commercial it turns into a scene where it's just two guys arguing over who got ripped off, and whether I'm a star. One sketch starts off as one thing, and can be turned into a completely new thing. Over the course of an hour, we explored the psychology behind avoiding embarrassment at all costs (even if it means embarrassing yourself further), his too-short stint on SNL, and the many subtle narrative turns of a seven-minute sketch entitled “Honk If You’re Horny,” which ends with an original song performed by Robinson at his mother’s funeral. Often the manic driving force of his sketches, the 37-year-old in person is a quiet, gentle speaker who is just as amused by and invested in the stories the show tells as his fans are. GQ sat down with Robinson to discuss the sudden unexpected cultural phenomenon of I Think You Should Leave. In another, an aged-up Will Forte attempts to get revenge on the baby who kept him awake on a seven-hour transatlantic flight thirty years ago… by tracking down the man the baby became and crying nonstop on his flight. In the first episode, the televised finals of the “Baby of the Year” competition devolve into bloodthirsty chaos.
I THINK YOU SHOULD LEAVE WITH TIM ROBINSON SERIES
The six-part sketch series features some of the boldest and most creative comedy we’ve seen in years, thanks to the sensibilities of creator/star Robinson himself, as well as co-writers Zach Kanin and John Solomon, not to mention the guys behind The Lonely Island, who produced this beautiful monstrosity.Įach sketch in I Think You Should Leave adheres to its own batshit logic, sometimes twisting conceits and changing directions completely out of left field to occasionally deliver scenes that feel less like comedy bits, and more like warped, relentless Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf scenarios. It’s only been a couple of weeks, but I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson has already staked a claim as one of Netflix’s most original and well-received gambits.
