This week on Dropout: on Monday, go behind-the-scenes of Game Changer's latest episode ("Deja Vu"); on Tuesday, welcome to an all-sports Breaking News with anchors Jess Ross, Oscar Montoya, Ally Beardsley, and Ruha Taslimi; on Wednesday, get ready for the 3 hour long 17th episode of Dimension 20: Fantasy High Junior Year (don't miss it); on Thursday, a chaotic Adventuring Party talkback; on Friday, the trailer for new Dropout series, Thousandaires, and a new Very Important People with guests Rashawn Scott and Ross Bryant.
If you like the weird surreal vibes of the time loop episode you should watch Very Important People (also on dropout) a show where comedians are given and extreme makeover and have to create a character on the spot and give an improvised interview on a a talk show with host Vic Michaelis. It’s funny, weird, random, sophisticated, and all around a good watch
Dropout.TV really has the vibe of "What would SNL look like if you tried to invent it today" and I really dig that. I've yet to see a show I didn't find hilarious and they're all incredibly unique. I love that they're not only showcasing all of these up and coming comedians, but they're also giving them opportunities to create shows of their own that wouldn't necessarily fit on a typical network.
Dropout is great because while on a traditional network nowadays you would have one knockout concept and be done with it never revisiting it again dropouts like “okay we love doing that now let’s do it AGAIN and AGAIN and make it BETTER and more COOL and more ENJOYABLE and let’s keep doing it until our hearts tell us to stop and we love doing it so that might be never so long as we’re passionate about it” and that’s so fucking cool, in an era of commodified creativity the enthusiastic passion for the arts that drives dropout is not only refreshing but heartwarming and cathartic as a fellow creative who would love to have the chance to do what I love to do like that.
i love that brian david gilbert's penchant for strange comedy horror mixed with very important people that well. that episode was so much fun slkdflsdkj also shout out to his gender euphoria over being a cyborg mad scientist
