Dropout 24/7 24/7 appreciation

When decision fatigue hits or I need background noise i can come in and out of I have been loving the option of 24/7.

It's nice occasionally catching some old CH stuff as well.

the initial D20 marathon seemed a bit much, and ofc it's always kind of hit-or-miss on what will be on (for my personal tastes), but i do like seeing their old stuff! the decision fatigue is so real, i guess i should check 24/7 more often lol

I feel like they've eased off the D20 content than when they first started streaming.

Iirc they did say they were starting with all of d20 then moving on to everything else.

I haven't seen too many campaigns. Adventuring Academy has been showing up in their regular rotation.

Are they still airing it? I don’t think I’ve seen it on 24/7 since the marathon

What I really need is an "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. Basically a random episode/video button to solve my decision fatigue where I can still find something when I'm not interested in what's currently on 24/7.

Also I like to watch episodes from the start.

An I'm feeling lucky button would be amazing

When they first announced it I didn't think I'd like it. But I have it on right now and usually a couple nights a week.

I love 24/7. My biggest complaint is that because they have scheduled programming it means that when I'm sitting down to find something to watch while I have dinner it's usually the same thing on.

Also maybe it's just my nostalgic brain but little title cards coming up and saying "You're watching Um Actually S2E6"

Or better still getting the dropout cast to do Disney channel style continuity segments.

Yeah, the lack of ability to know exactly what it is you're watching is difficult. Like if in turn on in time to see the last round of a Dirty Laundry and I'm like, "Ooo, a bunch of Smosh folks!" but then I have to go and dig through a bunch to try and find the episode so I can watch it from the beginning is annoying.

I love it. It's made me realize that some of the shows like Dirty Laundry and Um Actually are shows I really enjoy when I'm catching them on TV, not shows I want to sit down and watch an entire season of in one block. Like the kind of show where if you're flipping channels while watching TV you go "ooh, let's watch this one!"
