There are tiny moments that save this sketch, in which Robinson’s character tries to lighten the mood of a party by doing a Blues Brothers routine, only to make things way worse by freaking out a family dog: Conner O’Malley playing the world’s most aggrieved husband the banal discussion about why the dog is losing its shit, which ends with O’Malley yelling, “What?! We know what the problem is” and a second dog coming out of nowhere and nearly running through a glass door. “The Blues Brother” (Season 2, Episode 4) Ranking the Characters From ‘I Think You Should Leave’ The Ringer Guide to Streaming in July 49. There must be a third one coming, though the winner will never be Troll Boy. No matter, Richardson hosting failed competitions is a clearly rich vein for ITYSL. Obviously, the boss has some qualms about evaluating minors in front of all his employees, and the thing falls apart in quick order. Instead of Sam Richardson making three judges pick a perfect baby, he’s making one office manager select who he thinks is the buffest little boy (they’re not actually that ripped-Richardson has just put the boys in “goose suits”). “Little Buff Boys” is Season 2’s spiritual sequel to Season 1’s “Baby of the Year.” For that reason, it lacks some of the original’s absurd shock, but it’s still ridiculous and quotable. “Little Buff Boys” (Season 2, Episodes 1 and 5) It’s not a peak sketch it’s still pretty great. It just doesn’t have the specificity and knotty plotting of “The Gift Receipt” or the surrealism of “Calico Cut Pants.” What it does have is Tim Robinson being scolded by his boss for hiring a guy who looks like his coworker to take huge dumps he could then blame on said coworker-a gag that, with all due respect, worked “150 times.” It also has Robinson arguing that Jerry from Tom & Jerry probably sniffed women’s panties (“You weren’t with him 24/7 in the cartoon!”) and interrupting his own scolding to complain about how a guy who lives too far away wants to buy his bike stand. “Huge Dumps” (Season 2, Episode 6)Īs far as ITYSL sketches revolving around bathroom humor go, “Huge Dumps” is probably the weakest. “FUCK! I SHOULD HAVE LIED! I should have said there was some reason I couldn’t pay and not just said right away I’m not gonna.” Yes, Leslie. Maybe if I got a bite of everyone’s meal, but I just don’t want to do it.” Hal, the friend who proposed the game, attempts to diffuse the situation by saying he’ll pay the check, but Leslie is just getting started. Like Pavlov’s dog, upon hearing his name, Leslie immediately replies with an all-time hissy fit: “I’m not paying the bill. The credit card gods can always sense the most vulnerable bank account, and in this case, Leslie is smote with a 10-person tab at a fancy restaurant. “Credit Card Roulette” (Season 2, Episode 5)Ĭredit card roulette is an objectively terrible game. It’s just a 90-second sketch about horse dicks. But that’s, uh, not the case with this one. Plotlines morph into unrecognizable tangents, the smallest details are latched onto and beaten into the ground until the dotted line from setup to punch line becomes a twisted thread of confusion and hilarity. “Fenton’s Stables and Horse Ranch” (Season 1, Episode 6)Ī trademark of most Tim Robinson sketches is that where they start and where they end up often have nothing to do with each other.

It wasn’t easy to do-nearly every sketch in the series deserves praise and has an argument for being the best-but after much deliberation, here is a ranking of every sketch in I Think You Should Leave.ĥ3. With the second season of I Think You Should Leave now streaming on Netflix, we asked our staff to sit down, have a sloppy steak, and judge every sketch in the show’s run with the same rigor they would use in a Baby of the Year competition.
