I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson
Netflix
Netflix's I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson is a perfect match for PEN15 fans. The sketch comedy perfectly matches the cringe comedy of PEN15. The show's cast includes: Tim Robinson, Matt Knudsen, Sam Richardson, Matthew J Cates, Conner O'Malley, Brianna Baker, Shellye Broughton, Artie O'Daly, and Brandon Wardell.
Netflix describes the show as:
"Actor Tim Robinson stars in this sketch comedy series -- which he also co-created -- that sees him trying to get people to go away. In each segment, Robinson and his guests do whatever they can to try to drive someone to the point that they need -- or desperately want -- to leave. Robinson spent several years as a writer on "Saturday Night Live," so it's not a surprise that the show's roster of guest stars includes a number of SNL alumni. Among them are Andy Samberg, Will Forte, Vanessa Bayer and Cecily Strong."
I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson is currently available to stream on Netflix.
