Join the creator and cast of Netflix’s all-new comedy The Chair — showrunner and executive producer Amanda Peet, is joined by Bob Balaban, Holland Taylor, Nana Mensah, Jay Duplass, and Golden Globe winner Sandra Oh — as they discuss their hit new series with Variety’s Jenelle Riley.

The Chair follows the newly appointed chair of an English department (played expertly by Sandra Oh) at a fictional New England university — navigating her new role as the first woman to head the department and one of the few people of color on faculty. One of the most buzzed-about new shows of the season, The Chair’s dark wit is matched by its incisive observations about race, gender, and higher education. Hear Peet on the inspiration for the series and the cast on their brilliant on-screen chemistry — and find out how they expertly captured the dramatic machinations of university life, stories from behind the scenes, and much more.
