Dropout unveils Toonout, 25 animated shorts from Spider-Verse and Amphibia talent

Dropout will present an original series of short-form cartoons under the banner Toonout, commissioning 25 independent animated shorts to be released biweekly. An advance teaser gives off "Cartoon Network, but, like, back when it was cool, man" vibes. The service already hosts several animated series produced by CollegeHumor: WTF 101, a gross-out educational parody of The Magic School Bus; Cartoon Hell, in which two animators die immediately after signing a contract with the devil and must produce a series in hell; and Troopers: Animated, following hapless stormtroopers through minor entanglements on the Death Star.

Toonout will be the first animated series produced since the streaming service Dropout launched in 2018.
