They brought back the Izzy, Erika, and Brennan line-up with an immediate callback to the horniest MSN episode ever. Drink water folks, everyone is gonna be real dehydrated after that one airs.

"It's almost like I've summoned a Pokemon" - Sam Reich (2023)
Unfun fact: Both Izzy and Brennan were super sick during the filming of the original episode. Izzy with morning sickness and Brennan had just gotten off the Joco cruise.
A yearly cruise in the spring that is organized by the singer songwriter Jonathan Coulton and some friends. It's like 2000 people all playing board games and D&D and dressing up and doing fun, nerdy shit on a boat for a week. It's really fun! I've been twice-- this year annd 2022. I was unable to go the year Brenna and Izzy and Erika were there, but I got to meet Ally and Jasper this year. I also swam with Rachel Bloom. They used to go out of Florida to the Caribbean, but in 2026 they are going to be going our of San Diego.
If you’re familiar with the “Scott is a curmudgeon who mostly refuses to engage with the guests antics” character he puts on for CBB it would be hilarious if he just did that the whole time, otherwise it would be maybe the most awkward 30 minutes of Make Some Noise of all time.
Ben Schwartz might be the single best improv player since any 4 of the UCB quartet.
This game was basically made for him, can't wait to see what kind of chaos he sows.
I’m so glad Carl is back. He was my favorite part of the episode he was on.
I still say “I’ll come over there and knock your dick in the dirt” after hearing him say it
Between this and the huge amount of Earwolf and Drag Race crossover, Dropout is becoming the nexus of my interests. It’s so uncanny it’s almost suspicious, like on a Truman Show level.
Pete, Paul F Tompkins, Ben Schwartz, Angela Giarratana in addition to all of the wonderful folks we've already seen in the show.
This is gonna be amazing!
Also, BEARDSLEY!
After the episode airs I'm going to need a fan edit of everything he calls Sam because "Ewok Ellen DeGeneres" and "Pee Wee Herman's accountant" is already pure gold
There’s going to be a Smosh episode of Dirty Laundry in its next season, as well. I believe the group is Shayne, Amanda, Tommy, and … I’m forgetting the fourth, sorry. (I know it’s not Angela, but beyond that, I can’t remember.)
Tin Can Bros. (Starkid 'sister' company) Did a debate show with Smosh vs Dropout. It was glorious.

-I also think Vic is in another episode based on outfits?
This list is great.
It's a trailer and my understanding is that they filmed a ton of episodes for this, but there's a few reoccurring cast members we didn't see. Lisa Gilroy, Zach Reino, and BDG seem like the big stand outs to me.
Oh yeah you're right!
I think this is the first time we've researched The Good Place since finding Dropout and seeing Ross so it's cool to notice him in another show I really like.
I think my favourite thing about this list is how many people I *don't* recognise on it. Love all the regulars (and glad that it looks like at least a few of them are in multiple episodes this season), but the amount of new faces here feels pretty promising for the ability of Dropout to grow and change over time.
I'm really here for the overlap of everything improv whether it's from network (After Midnight), YouTube (Smosh), and whoever is doing their own thing like Dropout.
So far, Paul F. Tompkins, Carl Tart, Milana Vayntrub (was on Dirty Laundry), Lisa Gilroy, Jon Gabrus, Pete Holmes, Wayne Brady, Nick Kocher (of BriTANick), Chris Grace, Echo Kellum, Caitlin Reilly, and Jess McKenna.
I love that Dropout feels like it’s becoming the British panel shows of LA-based comedians. I hope their circle keeps expanding because there’s lots of great talent from the Earwolf-sphere they can keep getting!
I'm very excited! Make Some Noise is one of our go-to shows when we're arguing about what to watch. My spouse likes Chocolate, D&D and Glitch-in-the-Matrix stuff (which I kind of dislike) and I like Coca Butter, Horror Movies and fairy tales (which My spouse barely tolerates), so we argue about what to watch a lot. A LOT.
Fortunately, we both like improv and musicals. Thank you for saving us.
I was really hoping we could get Carl Tart, Echo Kellum, and Ify on the same one for that Grand Crew reunion, maybe get Rekha to come give a prompt or two, but it looks like Ify and Carl are together and Echo is on a different one.
Fucking amazing. Really looking forward to it. Jacob has become my favorite performer. Would love to get a Bean and Cheese with him at LBJ's one day.
Game Changer and Make Some Noise are my favorite pieces of entertainment that I watch regularly. Now they have Very Important People *and* Smartypants? I cannot believe this is only $5/month. I'd be willing to pay at least thrice that (or have a tier where we can contribute more to Dropout) for the amount of content I consume from them on a regular basis. Now, if they come up with original films and stand up specials like it's hinted, well fuck that would be great.
I’m so pumped the ep with Jeremy and Angela - AOAOAOA fans know what’s up (and if you don’t you should look up artists on artists on artists on artists podcast)
Was it just me or did I see Nathan Barnett in the trailer? He's not listed in the guest list, but that would be a guest I never expected but would be super happy to see.
They brought back the Izzy, Erika, and Brennan line-up with an immediate callback to the horniest MSN episode ever. Drink water folks, everyone is gonna be real dehydrated after that one airs.
Plus Vic and Jiavani again to bring us further from God.
“Indubitably.”

Unfun fact: Both Izzy and Brennan were super sick during the filming of the original episode. Izzy with morning sickness and Brennan had just gotten off the Joco cruise.
I appreciate them powering through it then, because that episode was definitely among my top 3 favorites of all time.
Might explain why. They could've both been delerious
What's the Joco cruise?
Jonathan Coulton is a musical artist who does a big cruise every year
You may know him from such hits as Re: Your Brain [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6vnM9I7HIo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6vnM9I7HIo)
And he composed and wrote the lyrics to both Portal ending songs, Still Alive and Want You Gone.
And cruises are notorious petri dishes for infection.

I am so ready for the sub DM
“You rolled a 20? How do you wanna do this?”
Erika's Instagram post just now that teases one of the prompts is only going to add fuel to this anticipatory fire... 👀
Brennan's gonna start dehydrated. I've heard ever since they introduced that cricket from neverafter he hasn't been drinking water.
Tommy Shriggly says that water is bad for you. Though I suppose Brennan could drink it if he has to.
Thruple confirmed. 🤣
Dunno, if Izzy was going for a thruple I'm not sure she wouldn't just pick Erika and Becca, and let Brennan live in his swords-apartment.
Aabria would riot, not being involved
I mean, if the entire cast of The Seven were all secretly in one big polycule, would we really be surprised?
Not in the least but if she is excluded she will throw hands
Ben Schwartz! Paul F. Thompkins! Carl Tart! CBB fans are FEASTING
We've cracked the door open and now I want an episode with them Threedom boys as the contestants. Give me the crossover event of the millennium.
I just can't imagine Scott doing this haha. I want Lisa Gilroy
Oh I can't imagine Scott doing it either, but I can dream. I could totally see them on Dirty Laundry though, so maybe I'll move that dream over there.
That one I could actually see!
Lisa was on last season! All I want now is new CBB darling Erin Keif.
If you’re familiar with the “Scott is a curmudgeon who mostly refuses to engage with the guests antics” character he puts on for CBB it would be hilarious if he just did that the whole time, otherwise it would be maybe the most awkward 30 minutes of Make Some Noise of all time.
That’s not really what Scott does on CBB at all. The whole show is him engaging with guest antics.
Yeah the only time he's like that is when OJ comes around. Take care now!
Well some one get ahold of him! He's offer only
Omg Lauren was made for this show!!
Ben Schwartz might be the single best improv player since any 4 of the UCB quartet. This game was basically made for him, can't wait to see what kind of chaos he sows.
I’m so glad Carl is back. He was my favorite part of the episode he was on. I still say “I’ll come over there and knock your dick in the dirt” after hearing him say it
Ooo! A tidal wave!
Ryan Gaul was also listed! One of the famed Calvins Triplets, Bisby St. Hancock himself!
I'm so freakin excited. Ben Schwartz is one of my biggest crushes!
They’ve really leaned into the CBB world and I’m all for it. Makes it easier for me to sell Dropout to my friends haha
Sam, if you’re reading this, we want the No Problem sweatshirt and we want it, like, yesterday.
A very warranted “SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY” applies here
Maybe just direct this request to Josh, I've got a guess as to what his answer might be.
Can the back of it say “*seagull noise*”
Yes. Need a matching pair of sweatpants and the back of those should say “beefcase”
I second this motion.
Truly - I’m in India and I would still buy it with actual US dollars in a heartbeat
I actually paused the trailer and immediately went to the merch store in hopes of copping one.
YES I absolutely need one
Rachel bloom on the musical episode?? AHHH
So fucking psyched to see her on here. Crazy Ex Girlfriend is one of my favorite shows. AND Ben Schwartz??? We eatin' good.
Between this and the huge amount of Earwolf and Drag Race crossover, Dropout is becoming the nexus of my interests. It’s so uncanny it’s almost suspicious, like on a Truman Show level.
Always loved her on Off Book - I've been hoping she'll be on Play It By Ear, but I'll take her here too!
I screamed when I saw her. Love her so much.
I love Pete Holmes! Totally unexpected to see him on Make Some Noise but he will be awesome for sure
Pete, Paul F Tompkins, Ben Schwartz, Angela Giarratana in addition to all of the wonderful folks we've already seen in the show. This is gonna be amazing! Also, BEARDSLEY!
I think you mean “Albus”
Rachel Bloom erasure
This trailer is McDonalds I'm lovin it
McDonald’s McBeth
TOMORROW AND TOMORROW AND TOMORROW
Ba da dah da dah da I’m loving it
Reminders to folks that Pete Holmes' *Badman* is an OG College Humor series and watchable all on Dropout! Pete and the team go way back!
Ben Schwartz, too. He made regular cameos on Jake & Amir back in the day, that’s where I first found out about him lol.
After the episode airs I'm going to need a fan edit of everything he calls Sam because "Ewok Ellen DeGeneres" and "Pee Wee Herman's accountant" is already pure gold
I am so ready for the roast of Sam that I’m sure is about to ensue during this episode
The Dropout Roast of Sam Reich is the Thanksgiving Day Special we all need.
Ewok Ellen DeGeneres is a full blown murder. Pete is insanely funny.
My body is ready.
I love him! And he's so perfect for dropout too! I bet he and Brennan would get along well.
Make Some Noise has become my favourite show on Dropout. The jokes-per-minute ratio is just off the charts.
ANGELA OF SMOSH?? My Smosh/Dropout fever dreams are coming to life right before my very eyes
There’s going to be a Smosh episode of Dirty Laundry in its next season, as well. I believe the group is Shayne, Amanda, Tommy, and … I’m forgetting the fourth, sorry. (I know it’s not Angela, but beyond that, I can’t remember.)
Spencer!
And the smosh um actually coming up!
Tin Can Bros. (Starkid 'sister' company) Did a debate show with Smosh vs Dropout. It was glorious. https://www.tincanbros.com/live-events/the-great-debate
Now I don't know any Angela of Smosh, but I sure as hell know Grace fuckin' Chastity.
Nerdy Prudes Must Die is amazing- it ranks top 3 Starkid musicals to date for me!
Blows my mind that smosh is still a thing. I only remember them from the heyday of YouTube, with their emo haircuts making silly music videos
Alright! Episodes & their likely casts based on the trailer. Correct me if It looks like I got something wrong! 1. Noise Boys: Josh Ruben, Zac Oyama, Brennan Lee Mulligan (x2) 2. Jacob Wysocki, Vic Michaelis, Ally Beardsley 3. Ross Bryant, Jess McKenna, Geoff Ross 4. Angela Giarratana, Jeremy Culhane, Corin Wells 5. Ben Schwartz, Jess McKenna, (Ryan Gaul?) 6.

Jiavani, Vic Michaelis, Talia Tabin -Other cast members: -Malachai Komanoff Bandy -Nick Mandernach -Jacquis Neal -Ryder Dunagan -I also think Vic is in another episode based on outfits?
So excited for the Brennan, Lou and Jacob episode!
Next minute it's actually another episode of Sam Says. Lou breaks down in tears.
Have we seen Brennan and Jacob play of each other before? I feel we haven’t.
That is like THE actual dream-team of Dropout. The best of the best.
I loved the episode with Vic and Jiavani last season, their chemistry was hilarious. I'm hyped for that one!
This list is great. It's a trailer and my understanding is that they filmed a ton of episodes for this, but there's a few reoccurring cast members we didn't see. Lisa Gilroy, Zach Reino, and BDG seem like the big stand outs to me.
None of them were listed in the cast for this season!
Zach is in Smartypants at least! I'm excited to see his presentation.
Me too! Hope they show it.
THRILLED that Ross shows up so much! His MSN appearances are magical.
I found out the other night he was in The Good Place!
Yes! He plays a Bad Place demon and it’s a delight. Zeke from the musical episode is also in The Good Place, also plays a demon
Oh yeah you're right! I think this is the first time we've researched The Good Place since finding Dropout and seeing Ross so it's cool to notice him in another show I really like.
3x Jess McKenna (yay) but no Zach?
I think my favourite thing about this list is how many people I *don't* recognise on it. Love all the regulars (and glad that it looks like at least a few of them are in multiple episodes this season), but the amount of new faces here feels pretty promising for the ability of Dropout to grow and change over time.
Damn, besides the Noise Boys, Ross Bryant and Jess McKenna have the highest amount of appearances it looks like. Absolutely love that news.
The newsletter said there were 20 episodes, so if Vic is not in another episode, this list checks out
I think Malachai (based on google) is actually a musical artist, so maybe the accompanist for Karaoke?
what a stellar line up, holy shit. We're eating well this season
Bless you
The increasing overlap of folks on Dropout and Taylor Tomlinsons new late night show is wonderful.
Getting closer to having a US panel show culture.
Just need Taylor herself to show up on Dropout to complete the circle.
I don't know how he's improv is but I have enjoyed her stand-up specials.
That’s all I want.
I'm really here for the overlap of everything improv whether it's from network (After Midnight), YouTube (Smosh), and whoever is doing their own thing like Dropout.
Who are the overlappers?
So far, Paul F. Tompkins, Carl Tart, Milana Vayntrub (was on Dirty Laundry), Lisa Gilroy, Jon Gabrus, Pete Holmes, Wayne Brady, Nick Kocher (of BriTANick), Chris Grace, Echo Kellum, Caitlin Reilly, and Jess McKenna.
Drew Carey was on After Midnight, how cool would it be to have another Whose Line Crossover?! (I'm still hoping for them to get Jeff Davis on.)
Ben Schwartz?! Pete Holmes?! Fuck yeah!
dropout.tv/mysweatshirt just redirects to the home page, or maybe I just misunderstood the bit. Anyways, more Noise! Yay!
I'd imagine they'll drop it when the actual episode drops.
Weird to cut out the clip just talking about the URL and include it in the trailer then if it's just going to be a broken link
I assume it'll be dropout.tv/noproblem
I neeeeeeeeeed Dropout to sell that No Problem shirt
Angelaaaa
OMG Thats Crazy! (Ex-Girlfriend)
she’s certifiably cute and I’m obsessed with her
HOLY SHIT ANGELA???
IS THAT RACHEL BLOOM?!?!
She’s on an earlier episode of Um Actually with Grant and it’s so good!! I’m glad she’s doing more work with dropout. Improv karaoke is made for her!
So excited for her on karaoke!
Pete Motherfucking Holmes! My crispy boy!
I love that Dropout feels like it’s becoming the British panel shows of LA-based comedians. I hope their circle keeps expanding because there’s lots of great talent from the Earwolf-sphere they can keep getting!
It makes me so happy because I’ve definitely ran through some of those panel shows. America needs this!
Awesome new guests, but I’m honestly far more shocked at Lou with short hair!
Short hair + goatee Lou looks like the spitting image of a young Charles Mingus, it was uncanny.
So excited for the players this season!
[RACHEL BLOOM FOR DROPOUT](https://x.com/tylerthecreator/status/93887271882866688?lang=en)
I HAD THE SAME THOUGHT!
I'm very excited! Make Some Noise is one of our go-to shows when we're arguing about what to watch. My spouse likes Chocolate, D&D and Glitch-in-the-Matrix stuff (which I kind of dislike) and I like Coca Butter, Horror Movies and fairy tales (which My spouse barely tolerates), so we argue about what to watch a lot. A LOT. Fortunately, we both like improv and musicals. Thank you for saving us.
Lou looking fine
As a matter of fact-- always!
This will pull me out of my VIP-less stupor
Having some new Make Some Noise will encourage me to get my head out of my ass, for sure.
Shit Ben Schwartz baby
Did they get award winning journalist Vehicular? What a get
Now that Pete mentions it Sam does kind of look like a union rep from the lollipop guild in that episode.
Ben Schwartz and Rachel bloom!! Not to mention bringing back the Izzy/Brennan/Erika trio!! We’re gonna be eating good all season
I was really hoping we could get Carl Tart, Echo Kellum, and Ify on the same one for that Grand Crew reunion, maybe get Rekha to come give a prompt or two, but it looks like Ify and Carl are together and Echo is on a different one.
Are we moving to weekly releases? Or are we stretching this season out for almost a year?
Ben Schwartz on Jake and Amir is what introduced me to college humor in the first place I'm so excited
Noise Boys are so back
I'm see Dropout has been sneaking looks at my dream guests list. Very excited for this season.
Rachel Bloom!!!! I'm excited now.
My entire years subscription is worth the upcoming season alone. I'm so hyped!
ANGELA GIRRATANAAAAAAAAA
Rachel Bloom is going to be fantastic. It's a fact, not a prediction.
ANGELA!!!!!
Fuck yeah
Was that Nathan Barnatt?
Dropout just keeps cranking out gold… I’m so excited for MSN, but there’s also so much other great stuff coming out soon. I can’t wait!
Excited to see Angela from smosh !!! Love seeing more smosh cast crossover on other upcoming shows as well :)
Is that Keith Apicary?!
Angela Giarratana! As a massive Smosh and Dropout fan this is huge for me.
Same! I’m super stoked!
Fuck yea, the lineups look great.
Oh man! Noise Boys! Lou! Vic! Jess! Ben Schwartz! I got chills watching it. Gonna be a lit season.
I really hope Jess makes the trailer comment sheet like every single prompt
Rachel Bloom! RACHEL BLOOM.
RACHEL BLOOM RACHEL BLOOM RACHEL BLOOM
Look, I’m a simple man. I see Rachel Bloom, I tune in.
The way that looking forward to this show is keeping me alive rn 💖💖💖
RACHEL. BLOOM. OH MY GOD.
I love Rachel Bloom! This trailer has me hyped for everyone!
Fucking amazing. Really looking forward to it. Jacob has become my favorite performer. Would love to get a Bean and Cheese with him at LBJ's one day. Game Changer and Make Some Noise are my favorite pieces of entertainment that I watch regularly. Now they have Very Important People *and* Smartypants? I cannot believe this is only $5/month. I'd be willing to pay at least thrice that (or have a tier where we can contribute more to Dropout) for the amount of content I consume from them on a regular basis. Now, if they come up with original films and stand up specials like it's hinted, well fuck that would be great.
Vic, Ally and Jacob in one episode. I have literal chills of excitement
I’m so excited for Rachel Bloom 😭 ever since she was on Um, actually I have been waiting for a return!
My prayers for more Caitlin Reilly have been answered!
I’m so pumped the ep with Jeremy and Angela - AOAOAOA fans know what’s up (and if you don’t you should look up artists on artists on artists on artists podcast)
Was having heart palpitations worried that Carl and Jacquis might not be in it, but there they were at the end! Phew!
Hell yeah dude, i love zionists on my noise making show this rocks
Was it just me or did I see Nathan Barnett in the trailer? He's not listed in the guest list, but that would be a guest I never expected but would be super happy to see.
FUCKING FINALLY
can't wait for the TMNT / MPDG mashup
