I Think You Should Leave Skit Ranking: A systematic review and meta-analysis

June 12, 2023


Multiple websites have ranked the best skits in “I Think You Should Leave.” I wanted to analyze them a bit and compare those rankings to my own opinions. The plots and tables below show a few different rankings of all the skits from Seasons 1-3. I aggregated the data in this spreadsheet, which you can contribute your own rankings to. Plots were generated using this Colab Notebook.
