Laugh Line: (the captions actually say “nonsensical sounds”) Proma Khosla added the Season 3 sketches with limited supervision. Below, you’ll find IndieWire’s appreciation of every sketch from “I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson.” So let’s look back, remember, and laugh.īen Travers and Leo Adrian Garcia also contributed to this original article, which included four independent sketch rankings, averaging each ranking to create a master list, and a three-day debate before finalizing the order. After initially publishing our Season 1 list, we added Season 2 sketches when they premiered in 2021 and now 2023’s Season 3 sketches to form a complete ranking. But when we decided to rank the sketches, we decided first and foremost this wouldn’t be a ranking of every sketch from best to worst - because there is no “worst.” There are only sketches worth celebrating. While “I Think You Should Leave” is clearly not built to be a broadly accessible comedy, anyone who dials into its specific humor frequency are bound to appreciate aspects of every sketch. The writers at IndieWire couldn’t help talking about which were the best, and which were the very best. Still more might be forgotten, only to be rediscovered as fans power through Season 3 and drown their sorrows in an inevitable series rewatch. Season 2’s sketches quickly broke through, while others were repurposed based on news at the time. It’s doubtful anyone realized what kind of impact that first season would have on our culture a man in a hot dog costume is now visual shorthand for shunning responsibility, and an old man dabbing became someone to laugh with, not at. The full series (so far - fingers crossed for more) ranks as Netflix’s easiest and most satisfying binge with episodes under 20 minutes and endless absurdity. Thankfully, the wait is over, and now comedy fans can savor a whole new batch of sketches to join the previous 57, bringing the total to a whopping 85. “I feel like the story is in very capable hands.If you want to feel completely unmoored by the passage of time, here’s a fun fact: Nearly four years passed between Seasons 1 and 3 of “I Think You Should Leave” from co-creators Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin. “I know that their vision for this is really well-thought out and designed to honor what I’ve put on the page,” she told Mystery People. Whatever happens, Slaughter seems happy with the final product. It’s not impossible that Netflix might try for a second season if the series is wildly successful - maybe Andy’s father somehow breaks out of jail? But that would make it a very different story at that point. However, the show covers all of the events from the book, and things are pretty tied up by the end. This one also has that complex mother-daughter relationship at its heart. “I’m fascinated with stories of identity and of people who are not who they seem to be. You’re like, ‘What the f*ck is happening here?’” she told Forbes. “I knew I wanted to adapt this one within reading the first 20 pages. Pieces of Her producer Bruna Papandrea (who also worked on Big Little Liesand The Undoing) was instantly drawn in by the mystery. But Laura saves Andy in the end, and eventually gets Andy’s father to confess his crimes over a hidden wire, ensuring he’ll never be let out of prison. The reason she sends Andy on the run after the restaurant shooting is because the incident went viral online, and she knew the cult would find her. But once Laura realized she was pregnant and that the cult was killing people, she turned all the members over to law enforcement in exchange for witness protection. The novel jumps back and forth between the past and the present, and by the end of the book, Andy has figured out that her mom was in a shady cult in the ‘80s and had Andy with its leader. The show is based on a 2018 crime novel by Karin Slaughter and was billed as a limited series, so it’s unlikely that Pieces of Her will return for Season 2. With every bit of new information, she realizes she never really knew her mom at all. The incident sets off a chain of events that sends Andy traveling across the country in search of answers about who her mother really is. When a gunman appears and shoots his ex-girlfriend, all hell breaks loose and Laura skillfully kills him before he can hurt Andy. It kicks off with Andy (Bella Heathcote) going to a diner to celebrate her 30th birthday with her mom Laura (Collette), who works as a speech pathologist and is a generally respected member of the community. Spoilers ahead for the Pieces of Her book.Īfter starring in Unbelievable, Toni Collette is back to headline another Netflix thriller: Pieces of Her, an eight-episode series set in a sleepy Georgia town.
