Stuck on what to watch on the box? Take a look at these no-spoiler trending TV reviews…
The Chair Company, Season One
Tim Robinson returns with The Chair Company, a brilliantly absurd comedy that starts with a small office accident and spirals into full-blown madness. Ron Trosper, a mild-mannered property developer, suffers an embarrassing fall during a company presentation and becomes convinced he’s part of a sinister corporate cover-up.
What begins as a simple workplace mishap turns into a strange, fast-paced mystery full of eccentric colleagues, late-night paranoia, and laugh-out-loud awkwardness. Robinson’s trademark mix of embarrassment and defiance is on full display, but here it’s darker, sharper and surprisingly emotional.
With its mix of slapstick, tension and genuine humanity, The Chair Company feels both ridiculous and relatable. It’s a show about how quickly frustration can tip into obsession – which almost all of us can associate with. Streaming on NOW TV.
The Long Walk
The Long Walk is not an easy watch, but it’s an incredibly powerful one. Based on Stephen King’s early novel, this dystopian drama follows fifty young men forced to walk non-stop through rural America. Slow down for more than just a few moments, and soldiers shoot you dead on the spot. The prize? Whatever the last survivor wishes for.
Directed by Hunger Games veteran Francis Lawrence, the film keeps things stripped back and tense. Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson give deeply moving performances as two young, single men who find friendship and hope in the middle of despair. Their bond gives the story heart, even as the world around them grows more brutal.
It’s dark, gruesome, thought-provoking, and beautifully shot. It’s a story about survival, sacrifice and holding onto your humanity when everything else is lost. Watch now on Netflix.
