@dropouttv Last night, Dropout hosted our first ever FYC event -- Television Academy members were invited to join us at the Laugh Factory, for an evening that included an interview with Variety's Clayton Davis and our own Sam Reich, a condensed performance of Game Changer (featuring Brennan, Vic, and Lou as contestants), and us being VERY casual and charming and not seeming like we're desperate about wanting everyone to nominate for us when Emmy voting begins (on June 11th - mark your calendars! Vote for Game Changer and Very Important People!). Here's an exchange we think more or less sums up the night: Sam: "This is Dropout’s first-ever For Your Consideration event. I’m told these are usually elegant affairs, with champagne and canapés. So we got one glass of champagne and one canapé and gave it to Kimia. How are you enjoying those, Kimia?" Kimia: "I'm drunk Sam" Do we care about winning an Emmy? Not at all. We already have the greatest award there is - getting to make the shows we want for an audience that loves them (and, in some instances, even pays for them!). That being said, it would be VERY nice to at least be nominated for an Emmy. How else are we gonna get that WEGOT? ("W" is for Webby so we're already well on our way) We hugely appreciate all the wonderful people who made this event possible - the Dropout production and marketing teams, Collective Publicity, and westhaus! 📷 Savion Washington / Getty Images
