Dropout Announces New Scripted Series that Spoofs MTV

Dropout announced a new series on Tuesday. Unlike most of the streamer's improv-heavy shows, the three-episode MP3 is a live-action scripted series.

Starring Saturday Night Live standout Jeremy Culhane, Skye Townsend, Aparna Nancherla, and Paul F. Tompkins, MP3 will spoof music video countdown shows, like MTV's Total Request Live. Each episode, Culhane, Townsend, and Nancherla's host characters will present music videos, interview guests, and argue with their producer, played by Tompkins.

Dropout favorites like Katie Marovitch, Lou Wilson, and Jacob Wysocki will appear as artists in the music videos. Jess McKenna and Zach Reino also play producers, and even appear in some of the music videos. They're also writers on the show and in charge of the music compositions. Very Important People fans will recognize Anna Garcia's Princess Emily making an appearance in the trailer, making us wonder if any other characters from across the Dropout network will cameo.

MP3 will stream its first episode Wednesday, Nov. 4. Like most other Dropout series, it will debut new episodes every two weeks, so keep Nov. 18 and Dec. 2 clear on your calendar. As the focus of the show is on music, each song performed on MP3 will be released on music streaming services after new episodes air.

MP3 is the latest foray into new ground for Dropout. 2026 has been a year of experiments, including licensed content and a new scripted animated show . "As far as Dropout is concerned, I want Dropout to be really all over the place in terms of what it's trying," CEO Sam Reich told Polygon recently.
