my new favorite Game Changer episode(s) for real petition to call for a ceasefire in Palestine: www.amnesty.or... other ways to help Palestine: afsc.org/news/...
@@Michaela_ZCI was going to write a comment about how Zac also makes a great foil for Brennan but ended up realizing that I could say the same thing about so many of the Dropouts. And I think that’s a big part of what I love about them-not only are they fantastic writers and performers individually, but they all work so well *together.*
@@Michaela_ZC "Emily is one of the best D&D players in the world. Endlessly creative, so fun to play with. She was also sent from Hell to kill me." -B.L. Mulligan
my favorite part of this game was ally trying to be as brennan-plausible as possible at the start before fully committing to making the real brennan mad instead
I think not only should Rekha have won for figuring out everybody SO fast but her table jokes were absolutely on point! "Ever have a one night stand with one night stand?" is an S tier joke 😁
she would have had a better chance of winning if she removed katie instead of brennan. sure brennan is very competitive but katie was her closest competition, and brennan wasn't guaranteed to figure it out. bad play lead to her downfall.
I think Rekha made a great point though - all she knew is she was the only player who guessed everyone right. She didn't know how many Katie had right/wrong, much less that she was _so_ close. (Or that the tiebreaker would be so stupid, sorry.) Which is a big tick in the "boot Brennan" column imo. I think bc we knew, as the audience, how close it was, we are accidentally biased since we knew what Rekha didn't
@@emma-di5ly It makes me sad because alot of Old Collegehumor fans said how much it reminded of Tim and Eric but I guess he really is just hard to work with
@@Silenceisrecording104In the BTS in Dropout, the reason Sam gives for not having the Ratfish at the table is that they felt the final shot’s of the season should just be the cast; I totes believe that.
I think it's telling that the Ratfish themself doesn't feature in "favorite moments". By far the weakest part of the show, but it was elevated by the seven cast members having an amazing time together.
Tbf she set herself up for failure by not choosing to eliminate Katie who was her biggest competition. Later, Brennan, who got eliminated by Rekha, got revenge by doing his classic monologue bit to Katie therefore revealing himself. By the end of that round, Katie was able to correctly guess everyone
@@CalmClamFamthat’s what I thought too, but Brennan couldn’t have been taking revenge because he didn’t know at the time which player was Katie! It was just a coincidence.
I think they would’ve gotten it if not for the fact that 2 people guessed perfectly. They said in the BTS episode that the tiebreaker was a last-minute fix.
The moment Brennan started that whole monologue I thought "Please don't send this. That's such a Brennan response. They'll know immediately." And what do you know.
They wound up using it as a tiebreaker, instead of the intended purpose, because they didn’t anticipate two people getting perfect scores. Still sad about it, though.
@@atlander4204 The tiebreaker was the best artwork, the best character award was a separate thing. In terms of the actual game, Zac was the first one out so he couldn't have won that regardless. Definitely robbed for best character though, I didn't even think Brennan (the character) was that funny.
Zac is on a different level. I loved seeing how funny everyone thought he was, without knowing that it was him. I felt like Ally should’ve known just based on how funny they found Granma 😂
Having never watched the Circle, I thought the "look super fucking hot walking down a hallway" bit in the trailer meant that this episode was gonna be a heist
granma sweetie was Robbed, beardsley was excellent but zac was impeccable. 'runnin' 'says who' 'I have 50 thousand dollars and more in the ground' 'you might be my grandson mason if...' 'idiot' getting absolutely everyone with the whoopee cushion, iconic shit
It's a shame these episodes are rated so low on IMDb (7.9 & 6.0 respectively, compared to the >8.8 of the rest of season 6). The first episode was especially hilarious and fresh. But I guess I can agree that Part 2 loses the momentum and novelty, and the fact that they don't even reveal Eric to the rest of the cast is a bizarre choice too. Still, a very fun season finale
I loved the entire cast, but every time it cut to Eric I just didn't laugh. He wasn't funny to me, and I also had no idea who he was until I looked it up. The fact that he was also solely picking the winners sucked, I don't know if it's the way it was edited, but the people chosen didn't reflect who was funniest etc to me. But I get that we as the audience saw way more to judge from than just the group chat, so maybe that made the difference? Also, Rekha should have gotten something for getting everyone right first regardless of winning. The lack of reveal at the end also really killed the momentum for me, like what happened there? Just a weird couple of eps despite the god tier concept
@@call-rickeyIt was actually said by Sam that he wanted the end table to only be the main cast, i suppose to make it more intimate? But it was intentional to not have Eric be revealed
@@langiit Personally I don't buy it. I get the vibe that either something happened that made them just not want Eric at the reveal or Eric didn't want to be there. It just makes zero sense from a production perspective to pay for a well respected comedy actor/writer to come on your show and not have him ever interact in person with any of the Dropout cast. All that being said, I think the episode itself gets too much hate because I was thoroughly entertained the entire time
@@nukeninmgt1504 It wasn't just the closer of the two episodes - it was the season finale. That roundtable was a celebration of a whole season of going above and beyond, so I get why Sam wanted it to be just them. And also, it's Game Changer... fucking with the cast and not having them know who the Ratfish was until they get to see the episodes is such a bit.
The reveal of the Ratfish in ep 1 did nothing for me cause I never watched Tim and Eric. My reaction was "who the hell is this". And then he wasn't funny. Loved everything else about the episodes
I did watch Tim and Eric (admittedly, because of a friend) and I still hadn't even realized it was that Eric until talking to another friend and finally looking up his name. lmao. It's never been my humor type, and it doesn't really feel like the humor type that fit the rest of the cast and this format either. But all the castmates were so on top of their game, and I loved seeing the love and admiration for all of their humor language!
He just wasn’t quite the fit for the show. A shame because I love Tim and Eric a ton, and their humour is just terrific, it just doesn’t quite gel in this format.
I’ve never really understood that kind of humor. It’s so high risk mid reward. Some people find it funny, but also some people find it super uncomfortable. Especially today when some of the biggest names in that style humor have gone off the deep end in being problematic.
It's just a problem that the game relies on knowing each others personalities and then they brought in someone who (i think?) never met any of them before. Someone like BDG or SungWon Cho, maybe even a McElroy brother, could've done great in that position since they all have a little overlap. It's the complete disconnect between the Tim and Eric fanbase and the Dropout fambase that made it fall flat.
The fact that there are barely any Ratfish in this video, shows how badly they failed. If they ever do a game samer, hope they tweak it, maybe have multiple people handling that account so people are tricked.
They need to do it with the same premise but really it’s 1 person playing it normally and another person playing 8 other people while having a hidden cam on the one out of the know and fucking around with that 1 person
I loved the vibe of this show! Though it did kinda flounder towards the end... I feel like they shouldn't have had a celebrity guest, personally. Maybe someone from the office or another smaller online comedian that they know? Just to muddy the waters a bit? Still, I hope we get to see Ratfish again!!
It needed to be someone that the cast didn’t know very well, so another cast member wouldn’t have worked. But maybe they could’ve gotten someone more generally well known or something. I’ve seen a lot of people saying it should’ve been Robert Reich, and that would’ve been funny
@tbow13gbr22 That would be funny! I feel like their guest is well known, since he is a famous comedian, but probably not to Dropout's main audience. I saw someone in a RUclips Shorts comment say that he would be someone that the Dropout cast would know, so maybe if they'd been able to have him in the reveal at the end that would've been fun? Idk, lots to consider! But I agree that they should be a comedian (or just an internet person) more known to their audience at least.
@@riverr.659 if you’re saying he was playing a character, the character wasn’t a good fit. I agree, I do think he was playing a character. And in the same way that someone playing a goofy twerking character in a serious drama is a bad idea, it’s not generally a great idea to bring in disinterest and anti humor to a comedy show that’s primarily not that. And I’m fully prepared for this to not be Eric’s fault, but his part in the show sucked the air out of the entire episode.
@@riverr.659 He definitely could’ve been. Personally, I just got a weird vibe from the times we cut to his room and he was talking to the camera. If all of that was just playing a character for the camera, then he was playing an unlikable, boring character.
To me, the characters are hilarious but Eric as the Ratfish was really disappointing and kinda ruined the rest of the concept unfortunately. He wasn’t funny, didn’t reward who were clearly the funniest characters, and it messed with the pacing
Wow, won't even pretend to say that he didn't reward a more "worthy" favourite instead just going straight to funniest in a somehow objective sense. It's actually kind of refreshing.
I didn't care about who he rewarded what, that's personal taste, but it did make everything feel off. I think the concept can be iterated on and we'll get a better Ratfish episode somewhere down the line.
There's also only so many times they could do it before everyone would know each other's tells. I could see, if budget were no object, a sequel a couple seasons down the road, but that's about all they could do without making it less special.
@@Arkatox Ah, yeah that is fair. I was thinking for a show idea that it'd be five an episode (all Dropout cast, no random celebrities) and to just last the longest without being caught by a majority of your group (everyone gets one guess a round or something). Problem is like you said, group knows each other enough and it instead becomes who do they want to vote out first rather than an actual detective's game.
I’m very much considering a Dropout subscription after this and all the shorts that they’ve posted. I just need more granma sweetie in my life And I need this to be a show not a one-off thing, please!
Dude do it. Their new season of Dimension 20 (their ttrpg series) is fucking amazing. Never Stop Blowing Up, check it out, it’s got more Rekha and Ally and Brennan is the DM. Zac is on other seasons of Dimension 20 and he is equally as funny and unhinged in his roleplay characters.
It's the most bang for buck I get out of any of my streaming services. Also Dropout is very password sharing-friendly so if you can't do $6/month you can always split it with a friend.
@@igotbeans recently got some shorts recommended from their D20 Questing Queens campaign and that sealed the deal for me. Waiting for my next paycheck and then having a very fun week watching every single thing I remember from every RUclips short! Ooopoo very excited Do you recommend watching them on the website or using the app? I saw some comments about how one might be better than the other
What i love about ratfish is just how unique every single character is and how funny the ideas are. Like, a side table?? thats peak comedy. Brennan, the sophisticated monologuer? Of course hes A Bug With A Big Ass
Jess and Zac's characters were absolutely my favorites, they were so hilarious. Jess's character intro made me crack up and her jokes for the stand-up challenge were actually really good while staying in character. and graNma sWeetie coming in for the heckle was like the cherry on top.
I had this playing in the background and then I heard my name when they started talking about grandson Mason and the way I turned, around so fast I gave myself whiplash😂
Watching all of them just flex their comedy skills and making each other laugh was delightful. I hope theres more episodes that have this energy in the future lmao
i loved this so much but i wish there was another twist where sam was almost being played by someone else and the final win determiner was identifying who sam really is
7:32 this is gonna sound dumb but I'm not usually someone who laughs out loud while watching things. like i laugh irl a lot, but not when it comes to watching media for some reason, even though i'm very entertained by it. this part where Zac sent a fart sound with just the word "idiot" makes me laugh out loud literally every time i think about it
Ratfish was one of my favorite things Dropout has ever done, but it makes me so fucking infuriated that Zac was an unstoppable comedy machine and Eric did not give one single shit about him

@@igotbeans recently got some shorts recommended from their D20 Questing Queens campaign and that sealed the deal for me. Waiting for my next paycheck and then having a very fun week watching every single thing I remember from every RUclips short! Ooopoo very excited
Do you recommend watching them on the website or using the app? I saw some comments about how one might be better than the other
What i love about ratfish is just how unique every single character is and how funny the ideas are. Like, a side table?? thats peak comedy. Brennan, the sophisticated monologuer? Of course hes A Bug With A Big Ass
Rekha did in fact look super fucking hot walking down the hallway!
Zac Oyama is one of the funniest people on this planet
I love that they all fell for Zac's whoopee cushion every single time and they all loved it
I'm gonna be so honest, when the trailer first came out, I thought it was just a Sam thirst trap till it showed everyone else lol
honestly? wouldn't complain
And then it's a thirst trap for all eight of them
@@dallydaydream true!!
My thirst is so trapped it will never escape. Help. 🤤
two moments that made me crey laughing were "runnin" and "Brennan?"
Jess and Zac's characters were absolutely my favorites, they were so hilarious. Jess's character intro made me crack up and her jokes for the stand-up challenge were actually really good while staying in character. and graNma sWeetie coming in for the heckle was like the cherry on top.

"Knock, knock. OUCH! That's my head buddy." isnt "actually" good, it's not good "in this context", it's just Good, very good at that.
I love that Zac and Brennan made each other laugh so much, they were so in tune even when they couldn’t see each other’s faces
Grandma Sweetie = greatest character/performance
hearing Brennan say Ligma balls had me actually wheezing, like my roomie asked if I was okay, cuz I sounded like I couldnt breathe
Jess was so fun the whole time! Perfect for her energy
At this point I'm just curious what Ally used their billboard for
It was Katie who won! Check her website, and you’ll see the billboard!
@@ZephyrysBaum
But Ally won second place for being the Ratfish's favorite character
@@Nanaten they didn’t get a billboard though? Did they?
@@ZephyrysBaum They did, it was stated that the ratfishes favourite gets a billboard on (iirc) Fountain but we never got to see it.
@@fillername6996 oh ok!
I had this playing in the background and then I heard my name when they started talking about grandson Mason and the way I turned, around so fast I gave myself whiplash😂
This episode only increased my crush on Rekha
"help i am so bisexual"
mood
ally sprinted down that hallway like they wanted to be the first one on the playground
11:33 oh I so feel you 🥲
9:40 immediately after getting him out, brennan gives a huge clue as to who he is to rekha's biggest rival. iconic
Can’t help but notice the ratfish was only tangentially here. Not a single Steven post :)
i absoultely LOVED graNma sWeetie they were my favorite character XD
I'm hindsight I'm not sure how more people didn't know right away that Zac was graNma sWeetie.
was waiting for the Brennan trying to sit at his name card expletives, you're completely correct A+++
Would help but I'm also so bisexual.
Watching all of them just flex their comedy skills and making each other laugh was delightful. I hope theres more episodes that have this energy in the future lmao
sometimes i wonder why brennan lee mulligan didn't go as "brennan lee mulligan" and pretend to be himself to throw everyone off
Zac with the whoopie cushion was one of the funniest things I've seen all year.
Ally SPRINTING down the hallway is peak gold imo I love them so much
"help i am so bisexual" same bestie
I am far too bisexual to survive the hallway walk 🥵
i loved this so much but i wish there was another twist where sam was almost being played by someone else and the final win determiner was identifying who sam really is
Granma Sweetie is some of the funniest Zack comedy I've ever seen!
Criminal granma sweetie wasnt fave character
7:32 this is gonna sound dumb but I'm not usually someone who laughs out loud while watching things. like i laugh irl a lot, but not when it comes to watching media for some reason, even though i'm very entertained by it. this part where Zac sent a fart sound with just the word "idiot" makes me laugh out loud literally every time i think about it
and that's the power of Zac Oyama
beardsley sprinting down the hallway is probably my favorite moment of the entire season. it's just comedy gold to me
I had to pause the first time I heard "the mark of any good Game Changer episode." 😂
This was such a brilliant game for these guys to play
I remember when the trailer first came out someone said “it’s just 45 minutes of them walking down the hallway”
Zac was on fucking fire this episode
Ratfish was one of my favorite things Dropout has ever done, but it makes me so fucking infuriated that Zac was an unstoppable comedy machine and Eric did not give one single shit about him
At least we can all agree on one thing:
*Medecine*
"help i am so bisexual" Same, buddy, that montage destroys me every time
Zac was my favorite by far
Zac needs to be studied
