The Best Game Show You’re Not Watching Releases Season 6 Trailer
Game shows are a television staple across all networks, streamers, and cultures, with some series such as Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune becoming mainstays in households across the world. One series, Game Changer, truly lives up to its name by serving as one of the greatest game shows of all time, despite airing exclusively through the lesser-known Dropout streaming service. The upcoming sixth season of the hilarious series is set to begin streaming on February 12, 2024, with the latest trailer available to view below.
During the run of the show, Game Changer has provided impression and sound effects challenges, escape rooms, and even their own take on Survivor.
Game Changer is a comedy panel show created by Sam Reich, former President of Original Content at CollegeHumor. Under the direction of Reich, who now owns and serves as CEO of the prolific comedy company, CollegeHumor has rebranded to Dropout in recent years, including the rollout of a number of streaming-exclusive shows available to preview through the corporation’s YouTube channel.
Reich previously served as a producer on a number of comedy series for both television and the internet, including Adam Ruins Everything, The Traveling Bong, and Rhett and Link’s Buddy System.
On Game Changer, Sam Reich hosts a panel of 3 or more contestants, often other CollegeHumor alumnus, as they navigate a different game or challenge each week. The show has made waves on the internet, with a handful of free episodes available on YouTube. During the run of the show, Game Changer has provided impression and sound effects challenges, escape rooms, and even their own take on Survivor. The unfortunate truth of the matter is that the series would easily be as huge as The Price Is Right or Family Feud if it were available on a more accessible service.
Choosing not to partner with any major media brands allows Game Changer to remain unbound by any corporate media gatekeepers, making it one of the most interesting and boundary-shattering shows of its kind.
Dropout TV serves is an independent ad-free streamer that currently touts a subscriber base of somewhere in the few hundred thousands, according to Sam Reich. The YouTube channel, however, which has been providing humorous content to fans on the platform for over 17 years, touts over 14.7 million loyal subscribers.
While the barrier for entry to watch the entire five-season run of Game Changer on Dropout TV is only $5.99 per month, it is highly difficult to entice a YouTube audience to sign up for a streaming service outside of Netflix, Hulu, and Max.
However, choosing not to partner with any major media brands allows Game Changer to remain unbound by any corporate media gatekeepers, making it one of the most interesting and boundary-shattering shows of its kind. In the past, the series has included challenges requiring contestants to share embarrassing posts on social media, destroy pieces of the set, and even perform various acts with the explicit intention of upsetting the show’s producers.
With a line-up of contestants that leave nearly every episode looking like a Mount Rushmore of internet comedy pioneers, Game Changer contains quite possibly the greatest rogues gallery of comedic minds known to television.
The unfortunate truth of the matter is that the series would easily be as huge as The Price Is Right or Family Feud if it were available on a more accessible service.
Frequent guests include Brennan Lee Mulligan, Josh Ruben, Grant O’Brien, Mike Trapp, and Adam Conover, with special guest appearances from big names such as Michael Winslow, Wayne Brady, and many more. Though the show may not provide fans with an opportunity to share their love for it at the water cooler, there is a dedicated fanbase for Game Changer and other Dropout TV shows on the internet.
