Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor Indie streaming platform Dropout, formerly known as CollegeHumor, is vying for a spotlight at this year’s Primetime Emmys with an ambitious campaign to secure its first major nominations.
With a passionate and niche audience, Variety has learned exclusively about Dropout’s top contenders submitted for Emmy love, including the innovative game show “Game Changer” and the unique interview series “Very Important People.” “Game Changer,” a standout series hosted by Dropout CEO Sam Reich, turns the traditional game show format on its head.
Each episode introduces a new game, but the twist is that the three comedian contestants are clueless about the rules until the game begins.
The blend of improv comedy and fierce competition has not only captivated audiences but also spawned three successful spinoffs: “Dirty Laundry,” “Make Some Noise” and “Play It by Ear.” Two of the season’s funniest episodes, “Sam Says 3” (featuring Jacob Wysocki’s epic ‘Super Saiyan’ transformation) and “Bingo” (featuring two separate, secret trios of contestants), are the episode submissions available on the TV Academy’s viewing platform. “Game Changer” was submitted for the first time last year when the TV Academy moved the outstanding game show category from the Daytime to Primetime ceremonies.
