CollegeHumor Announces New Subscription Service, Dropout

CollegeHumor is launching Dropout, an ad-free, mixed-media subscription service that will include original series, animation, comics and other content, according to Variety.

CollegeHumor initial version of Dropout, which they are calling a public beta, will be available on the web and mobile browsers starting today. A full launch will add iOS and Android apps and additional content.

Dropout will be available for $3.99 per month for the first three months during the beta. After the official debut it will adopt a tiered pricing model: $47.88 per year ($3.99 per month); $29.94 for a six-month subscription ($4.99 per month); and $5.99 for a month-by-month subscription.

Dropout's slate of longer-form, premium programming will feature fan-favorite CollegeHumor alumni and reboots of popular series in scripted and unscripted shows.

The lineup on Dropout includes "See Plum Run," "Lonely and Horny," "Troopers" and more. Dropout's unscripted series include "Dimension 20: Fantasy High," and "Um, Actually."

Dropout will also provide mobile-first digital comics including "Dreadlord," "Cartoon Hell Presents" and "Ladies Book Club."

Dropout subscribers will have access to about 50 hours of content during the beta period, and by the end of 2018, the company expects to have over 100 hours, with 250 hours by the end of 2019.

CollegeHumor plans to debut a new original title on the Dropout platform every month in 2019.
