Oh, I relate to that. I do like how well-subtitled Dropout stuff is, it makes life so much easier for me. I think my gateway drug to Dimension 20 was Escape from the Bloodkeep, although I never got around to finishing it - I'm half-into Critical Role (ie. I want to be into it but there's just So Much), and they made the sensible SEO decision of having Matt Mercer in the thumbnail for the first episode, IIRC. But I did watch all of Misfits and Magic! That one was fun!
(I'm seeing an option to change playback speed on my Dropout, but maybe it's a browser/app-specific thing. 😔)
I haven't watched much of Um, Actually; I have a terrible tendency to only watch episodes when someone I know is in them. Dirty Laundry also didn't quite click with me, but I still had fun - I feel like "people lie about ridiculous anecdotes from their lives" is a format that's hard to go too wrong with, and I liked Grant's drinks interludes.
Paranoia isn't one I'd heard of before! It sounds fun from the description, although I think it's 50/50 on whether I'd end up with second hand embarrassment from it. I'll definitely give it a go.
I'm pretty basic, to be honest. I really enjoy Game Changer and I liked Make Some Noise too. I've also had a lot of fun with some of the episodes of Breaking News, there are some of those that get me in hysterics every time.
My excitement for Emily's Red is one part excitement for Emily and one part a life-long enjoyment of creepy takes on Red Riding Hood. Siobhan's Aurora is also very interesting to me. I also always enjoy Zac's characters, so I feel like his Puss in Boots is going to be fun. I'm curious about what the overall tone of the season is going to be - obviously they're leaning horror, but I wonder what the balance with comedy will be.
