CollegeHumor's DROPOUT Unveils Slate of Originals

CollegeHumor's DROPOUT today announced their upcoming programming slate for the remainder of the year, which includes six new original series and one returning series, in addition to the ongoing seasons of RPG-themed Dimension 20: The Unsleeping City, nerdy gameshow Um, Actually and culinary parody Gods of Food. October alone will have a new episode of an original show airing all but nine days of the month.

"When we launched DROPOUT, it was with one specific objective: to make the kind of show that couldn't exist on any other network," said Sam Reich, Chief Creative Officer. "The shows we're launching between now and the end of the year are some of our most innovative and compelling - with a dash of 90's nostalgia, a heavy dose of modern-day themes and a heaping dollop of sour cream. I mean comedy."

Building on the summer premieres of multiple DROPOUT original series, including crime comedy Kingpin Katie, Dimension 20: The Unsleeping City, Um, Actually season two and Gods of Food, the following seven shows will be premiering September through December of this year on the platform.
