by Barbara

HBO has officially ordered the comedy series “The Chair Company,” which is both starring and co-created by Tim Robinson. Originally announced with a pilot order in April, the series was co-created by Robinson and Zach Kanin, who will also serve as executive producers alongside Adam McKay, Todd Schulman, and Igor Srubshchik. Andrew DeYoung, who directed and executive produced the pilot, completes the creative team.

The show follows William Ronald Trosper (played by Robinson), who, after a workplace mishap, finds himself unraveling a wide-reaching conspiracy. The cast includes Lake Bell as Barb Trosper, Sophia Lillis as Natalie Trosper, Will Price as Seth Trosper, and Joseph Tudisco as Mike Santini. Lou Diamond Phillips makes a guest appearance as Jeff Levjman.

Robinson is represented by CAA, Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment, and attorney Melissa Fox, while Kanin is represented by WME and Jackoway Austen Tyerman.
