The show revolves around Robinson and his antics, but like the previous two seasons, it was refreshing to see some new blood. SNL alums Tim Meadows, Fred Armisen and Beck Bennett all made their debuts for the show and I think that their sketches were some of the most enjoyable. Robinson plays a talk show host who is addicted to his phone, and while that can be a relatable situation for most, it felt like some of the lines were intentionally made for a screenshot.Ī pleasant surprise was some newcomers that joined the ITYSL cast for this year. Some skits were written like they were intending to go viral and not the other way around. Season three felt like it was the reverse. The first two seasons became viral online because of Robinson’s wacky characters and bizarre moments. I’ll break down what I mean by processed. These newer episodes all ended with these types of skits that it just got repetitive over time. It just felt more processed than the first 12 episodes that launched in years prior.įor both seasons one and two, there would be an occasional ironic ending skit that would launch a character into a somber monologue set to emotional music (take for instance, a certain fan of a rare cut of steak with water poured all over it). For someone who has and will quote the show on command, it felt like it was missing something super memorable and the lack of two of the show’s stars didn’t help.Īnd that’s not to say that it wasn’t funny, it was. This past season, both of them were reduced to one skit each, with Harrison’s role being a side character that doesn’t even speak until the final minutes of the skit. O’Malley would also slide in as an actor who caught my attention as a loud, passionate music producer. Harrison was always the second-best recurring character behind Robinson, playing memorable roles as a table entrepreneur or a christmas joke enthusiast. The biggest gripe I had with the third season was the lack of two actors that helped make the first two seasons memorable - Patti Harrison and Conner O’Malley. The revolving cast and dry humor works perfectly with the former Saturday Night Live cast member Robinson. The show, which features a myriad of characters that all seem to get into awkward and uncomfortable situations, has exploded onto the scene as one of Netflix’s best shows.
However, the uber-popular comedy sketch show, headlined by former Saturday Night Live cast member Robinson and co-created by Zach Kanin, did not live up to the hype. Returning to Netflix to much excitement, “I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson” officially dropped on May 30.
