For each show, two teams join Thank You, Robot to perform sets of unscripted comedy, never seen before and never to be seen again.

Thank You, Robot have been performing long-form improv comedy in New York City since 2006, when the members met as students at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater training center. In 2008 TYR debuted their twice monthly show Summer Fridays at Under St. Mark's Theater, a showcase for independent and established improv teams. For each show, two teams join TYR to perform sets of unscripted comedy, never seen before and never to be seen again. In Fall 2010, Summer Fridays became an official presentation of Horse Trade Theater Group.

Thank You, Robot includes members Jeremy Bent, Seth Lind, Matt Little, Christopher Scott and John Robert Wilson. Collectively they have written for The Onion, David Letterman's Monologue, and SNL's weekend update, and appeared on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, This American Life, College Humor, and in numerous shows at the UCB Theater. Their former teachers include Chris Gethard (Comedy Central's Big Lake), Zach Woods (The Office), Dominic Dierkes (Derrick Comedy) and many other talented folks who are all over film and television.

Christopher Scott (Performer) Chris grew up in Los Angeles, went to college and spent nine years in Minneapolis before moving to NYC in November, 2001... because is timing is impeccable. He's written three unpublished novels the range from mildly amusing to totally incoherent. He was a finalist in the 2010 New York Television Festival Fox Comedy Pilot competition... a pilot which remains unproduced. Beyond TYR, he can be seen in the improv duo Against All Odds with Nicole Drespel. The litany of improv projects teams he's been involved in includes musical improv with Veal and Gusto!, genre-based improv with The End Of The World and Clue: The Improvised Edition, and the imaginary one man epic "Philip K. Dick's Room of Not." He can be seen for fleeting moments in the first episode Project Improviser and runs the blog Obamarama which is just photos of the President with odd captions.

Jeremy Bent (Performer) Jeremy was born and raised in Rhode Island, where he started doing stand-up at age sixteen. He spent four years writing and performing sketches with Boston University's award-winning Slow Children At Play. He started studying improv at UCB in 2006, and has taken classes with Will Hines, Doug Moe, Charlie Todd, Chris Gethard, Anthony King, Kevin Mullaney, Shannon O'Neill, Eliza Skinner, Kevin Hines and Matt Walsh. Jeremy is a member of the UCB Harold Team Very Good Kiss, and plays regularly with his team Thank You, Robot. He can also be seen extremely late at night on local television announcing for women's flat-track roller derby.

John Robert Wilson (Performer) John Robert has been performing and studying long-form improv in New York since 2006. Before that he was a member of Main St. Improv in Houston, TX. Before that he was a founding member of Baton Rouge improv troop The Family Dinner. His prodcution credits include short videos for maxim.com, blender.com, rejectedjokes.com, superdeluxe.com and moveon.org. His sketch performance credits include videos for LandlineTV, Quiet Library and comedycentral.com. He has also directed and written for several late night variety shows at the UCB Theatre. John Robert is a native Louisianian and a webby award winning software developer. He has appeared in bit parts from time to time on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Matt Little (Performer) Hi, I'm Matt. I'm not gonna write this bullshit in the third person, because we both know I wrote this, right? Anyhow, I'm an improv actor, stand-up comedian, and comedy writer. I was a founding member of Thank You, Robot, and have been studying improv at the UCB Theatre since 2006. For the past 2 years, I have been coaching improv all around New York City, to rave reviews. I attribute this to me being lucky enough to have great teachers. As a stand-up, I perform all over New York City, and along the East Coast. I have been a part of the New York Underground Comedy Festival, the Laughing Skull Festival, and the North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival. The biggest highlight of my career so far was getting to open for Patton Oswalt in Youngstown, OH (sex capitol of the midwest! [the opposite]). I am also a comedy writer who has written for The Late Show with David Letterman, Saturday Night Live, ToyFare Magazine, Dorkly, and countless other websites that no longer exist. I hate bios because no one decides someone's talent based on a bio.

Seth Lind (Performer) Seth Lind hosts the storytelling show Told, performs long form improv with the group Thank You, Robot, and is director of operations at the public radio show This American Life.
