DROPOUT By CollegeHumor 17+

Sometime early this year, I discovered college humor, and started watching their videos casually, and occasionally. Nothing dramatic. Then I discovered Fantasy High. Within a month I had watched all of season one, all the behind the scenes, every animatic I could get my hands on, and got started on season 2. Before realising... You had to pay to get it. And it was so worth it. So, so worth it. When I got dropout, I had watched one or two episodes of the game shows, a couple of hardly workings, and fantasy high. Now after 4 months of dropout, I've fallen in love with, and watched every episode of: Game Changer, Um Actually, Everything Fantasy high related (both seasons, one shots, etc), Crown of Candy, Misfits and Magic, Escape from the blood keep, Rank Room, everything related to Troopers, Breaking news, And every single episode of hardly working, from season 3. And that's just the stuff I've watched in entirely and fallen madly in love with. TL;DR Dropout is so so so worth the investment. These incredible artists and creators deserve all the support to continue making these incredible shows, and I don't think any person is capable of running out of things to watch on dropout. Yeah the interface is pretty good, little glitchy at times with not going to full screen, but that's the only flaw. Oh and you can listen to show's with the screen off which is awesome! Netflix doesn't do that! So uh..... Hoot Growl y'all!

I’ve cancelled all my subscriptions. Netflix? Never heard of it. Disney? Disgusting. It’s just Dropout all day every day. There’s mountains of good content to get through. There’s so many flavours of good comedy, and if that’s not for you, Dimension 20 is the best DND show I’ve watched. And if THATS not for you there’s so many other shows that are made with a lot of love and by a lot of clever people. I trust that Dropout isn’t exploiting a captive audience for profit, like every other major streaming service. I trust Sam Reich and I feel like everyone at Dropout really cares for their audience.

I cannot recommend it highly enough. It’s an affordable price for a fantastic service. Make Some Noise and Game Changer are also (in my opinion) the best shows i’ve seen in years, always new and exciting. I’ve watched the noise boys episodes hundreds of times over when i’m feeling down. I don’t think this review could be any more glowing. I truly cannot think of any issues I have with it!

All the content I’ve watched so far has been amazing and I don’t regret paying for my subscription at all. But there are a couple bugs/weird little things about the app that don’t work properly or don’t really make sense.

For example, the continue watching feature doesn’t work across platforms (you’re not able to quickly access shows you’re in the middle of watching) however you’re still able to continue by finding the show and individual episode and pressing play there. But sometimes the point I’m up to in the episode also doesn’t sync properly between platforms. Also, changing the playback speed kind of un-syncs the audio from the video, which is kind of annoying for 2 hour long d20 episodes when I want to watch on 1.25x. It’s not super annoying, it’s about a half-second delay between the audio and video but it’s definitely noticeable.

Finally, there is an option to enable/disable background audio but it doesn’t actually do anything, it doesn’t let you play your own audio in the background, and it doesn’t seem to change the audio of the show itself, so I’m unsure as to what it actually does. Maybe I just haven’t watched a show that used that feature yet. If that’s the case, perhaps removing that button when it doesn’t do anything for that show will encourage more understanding and usage of the feature in the future.
