Going back to this and compare it to how Watcher announces their new platform, it really highlights how good of an announcement video this is. First, they show you how big their team and production is, to show that CollegeHumor is not "just a YT channel". Then they explained the cost reasoning, why YT and traditional TV doesn't work, and show Dropout as a solution. Sam showed you that they will be making bigger and better shows, with large ensemble cast, and assure you that free content would still be available. And most importantly, he acknowledges the sellout comments, and that not everyone can afford it, and assure you that it will be worth it. That is almost the most important point, and what Watcher got wrong about - among other things.

I like the title, "Dropout". Perfect name for an upgraded College Humour.

Not going to lie it was awesome to see Jake and Amir again

This is actually an excellently made advertisement. I appreciate the tact and openness with which this service was introduced. I'll be honest, the risk of people thinking y'all are sellouts and college humor is hiding behind a paywall was very high with how the internet is. But by explaining the reasoning behind the service, and outlining pros for EVERYONE, I am definitely super open for this service than I probably would've been if any other channel was advertising it. Hope to see more from y'all and hope to subscribe soon.

report from 2022: Dropout is still going strong! They've pared down to the shows people were watching the most and it ended up being d&d liveplay and gameshows, which is exactly what I wanted! I want MORE though so go give them money about it.

Tried to sign up by it’s blocked in the UK. A glitch or is life just unfair?

Oh that's clever. It goes with the college brand, and it references "Tune in, drop out". Buy your marketers a beer.

The saving of CollegeHumor genuinely is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen business wise.

I was confused where you were going with this, but once I saw Jake and Amir, my wallet was already out. I'm sold.

Jake and Amir? Precious Plum?? Thomas Middleditch??? Mia Malkova???? This might just tap into enough nostalgia to be worth it!

Sam here. I'll be hanging out in the comments all day to answer your burning questions about DROPOUT, such as "Are sketches going away?" (they're not), "How do you sleep at night?" (on my side), "I hate you now" (not a question), and "How tall IS Grant?" (no one knows). So go ahead! AMA.

Answer to the most popular question so far: In the beta period, we're unfortunately US only -- but don't despair! Over the course of the next year, we're working hard to get DROPOUT to fans all over the world. In the meanwhile, you'll be able to enjoy some of the content right here on the YouTube channel.
