In addition to being very funny, it presents a strange mystery that becomes increasingly real and unusual.
HBO Max continues to establish itself as one of the most original platforms of streaming, betting on content that combines satire, humor and social criticism. His most recent premiere, “The Chair Company” is now available and quickly gained public attention for its unique style and situations that are as strange as they are funny.
Recently arrived in the catalogue, this comedy mixes the everyday with the conspiratorial, presenting a story that mocks modern paranoia and the absurdity of working life. If you like series that surprise with each episode, this is a must see.

What The Chair is about, the new HBO Max original series
The story follows William “Ron” Trosperan ordinary man who sees his life fall apart after a work incident that goes viral. What begins as a public shame ends up becoming a delirious personal investigation where Ron believes he has discovered a network of conspiracies against him.
Throughout the episodes, the series takes the protagonist (and the viewer) on a journey full of black humor, unusual twists and moments that border on the absurd. The Chair combines physical comedy with a critical look at alienation and mistrust in today’s world, becoming a different proposal within the HBO Max catalog.
