Robinson, who co-created (with Zach Kanin) and stars in the show, is an absurdist genius who pushes awkward comedy to its limits. His obsessive characters never back down, whether it’s the cranky guy in the focus group or the guy dressed as a hot dog, and in the process, all social decorum and structure…
