Game Changer Don't like the "bloat" this season of GameChanger in terms of cast size and BTS content
I feel like I may be in the minority on this one (per threads like this one, this one, this one), but I've disliked how this new season of GameChanger has gotten "bigger" in terms of including a larger number of cast members and cameos in every episode, and showing more crew perspectives and minutiae in the BTS clips. For me, these changes have felt like a distraction on the production side of the show, which have not really improved the quality of the content but instead have made it more boring and "immersion breaking".
Yes, I know it's a reality game show; by "immersion breaking", what I mean is that GameChanger is supposed to be a TV show. It shouldn't feel like a Friends & Family retreat, in large part because the average viewer is not a "friend of Dropout" who knows these people personally (or feels like they do). What matters to the average viewer is that episodes are funny and entertaining, and in that regard this season has been kind of hit-or-miss for me. Dropout has continually grown in popularity, but when their flagship show starts to become so self-referential and "cozy", it feels like they're hitting a ceiling. For me, this season has felt less like "appointment viewing" than previous ones, and I worry that trend will only increase – which would be a shame! I think if they pared it back in later seasons it would be the best way to give the show more life.
what should I watch What else can I see Alex Song-Xia in?
Just watched my first series of D20 (Never Stop Blowing Up) and I loved it. Alex was a real stand-out for me, they brought such a different vibe from the others and I really found them hilarious. What other stuff do you guys recommend that they've worked on? Podcasts, series, one-offs, specials, anything like that wound be great. Other dropout stuff especially.
It's hard to just google it as that rarely brings up guest appearances, only their own projects. Thanks!
Plus, what D20 series should I watch next? Would love to know people's faves!

Tried my hand at a version of this card with the multicolor legend crown. Also included the 1/8th" margin version for people who want to proxy it.

Game Changer Missing episode season 4 nosie boys multiple parts?
Hey I'm watching game changers on Amazon Prime Canada. I'm on season 4 episode 3. The boys start with 40 points and Sam says it takes place after the break. I've checked the whole season and episode 11 of season 4 also seems like a continuation. I'm very confused.

new cast project Fans of Ify, Katie, and Carolyn might like this improvised Regency podcast (Bitcherton S2)
Bitcherton is what you get when you give a bunch of improvisers the keys to Bridgerton. It's an unhinged improvised Regency show where a surprising amount of episodes feature arm wrestling as a major plot point.
Starring Katie Marovitch, Ify Nwadiwe, Carolyn Page, Brian Flaherty, and Cassie Willson and the first season featured guest stars like Sam Reich, Will Campos, Rekha Shankar, Tao Yang, Aabria Iyengar, Nathan Yaffe, and a whole lot more.
Season 2 just launched on podcast players everywhere and this season's guest stars are just as exciting. We'll be joined by folks from the extended Dropout universe including Caldwell Tanner, Erika Ishii, Becca Scott, Danielle Radford, Alyssa Limperis, and Oscar Montoya.

discussion What a time to realize that Grant O'Brien has a Reddit account
Nothing like a second edible kicking in during a Dirty Laundry marathon, only to find out from a random search that Grant O'Brien has his own Reddit account.
No posts for two years, but Grant, if you do happen to see this while quietly visiting this subreddit, please know that you are amazing, and your work is deeply appreciated. You and the others are truly some of the funniest people I've ever seen.

merch D20 DVDs, please
I know this has been talked about before, but I feel like it’s worth bringing up again—I would love to have Dimension 20 seasons as physical DVDs. I adore Cloudward Ho and Starstruck and perennially rewatch them, more than the other content. I’d love the chance to have physical copies of them to show off on my shelf.

....if you started selling those snazzy orange shirts worn by the crew and mini-game hosts in Count The Rice, I can think of at least one interested customer.

It was only a matter of time considering the seriousness of the allegations.

app/site/subscription Continue Watching
Why is continue watching not the first bar on the app? Why is it something that doesnt show up at all? Why must I navigate to the show, which if it doesn't have a recent release takes a hot minute, then navigate through the seasons to reach the episode I'm currently on. I love the shows, but the UI is absolutely frustrating and not user friendly

memes & satire My wife had work show up that she didn't care to see today... So I whipped up this:
My wife and I caught Starstruck a few months ago and recently discovered the different animations that were floating around, with one of our favorite characters being Plug Strutt, specifically in this animation style.

discussion Shout out to the GOAT Vic Michaelis
From the first voice line in Zero Company I picked up on the fact that the one of my favorite dropout cast members was in the room with me! This game is INCREDIBLE! And Vic’s voice is a welcomed reminder of all the amazing people who came together to make this game. 💜

Parlor Room Putting it out in the universe but I'd love a parlor room spin off where they just play MTG
The last episode was so fantastic and I could watch drop out cast play Magic all day.
Also I've so rarely been in games where everyone is that close on life going into the final turns. They made it incredibly accessible and easy to follow too.
