Welcome To The Spacin' Life, Buddy | A Starstruck Odyssey [Premiere Episode]

[@dimension20show]

Just note that we are not planning on uploading the rest of the season for free to KZbin right now! But you can get every episode of A Starstruck Odyssey (and every Adventuring Party talkback) by signing up for Dropout at the low price of $6 / month! That's, like, the price of a just okay sandwich.

Remember the filler episode of Bebop where they get attacked by the alien parasite because they never cleaned out the fridge? That's basically the ending right there. I laughed my ass off.

[@KluelessTTV]

I haven't seen the season yet, but I've seen some clips, and I really like the idea of Lou's character going from "I've never been arrested, but I did get a stern talking to once for swimming where I wasn't supposed to" to wearing sunglasses and screaming "THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS" while happily swindling 4 random people out of all their money xD

[@swordkat1]

I'm always going to be there for more Starstruck. It has been a close companion for the last fourty years. Probably the most important piece of media I have devoured. Still regret I was too slow to get to see the play. Thanks for boosting the Zazzle site, my old shirt is long lost to time and finding Starstruck merch has been hard. Thanks for generating more material in my favorite universe.

[@scribojello3778]

Sundry Sidney's character introduction will go down in Dropout history as, perhaps, the greatest of all time. Emily is just an absolute peach blast of delight and Brennan definitely had so much fun with that scene.

[@splashdragon]

Love how Ally's voice is breaking when they laugh, congrats mate!

[@juliannehenry6852]

The fact the Elaine Lee is Brennan's mom makes so much sense! It explains so much about him

[@felixbermudez3782]

Brennan's natural ability to pull you into every scenario he imagines is legendary.

[@papriica]

Watching this again on youtube bc why the hell not, this season is only 2 episodes in and it’s so much fun chaos. In case anyones on the fence - highly recommend dropout to watch this live ! And also for all the other wonderful seasons they haven’t uploaded on youtube yet.

[@jondee7454]

I hope Captain Dan Scrap makes another appearance. One of the most hilarious NPC's I've ever seen. He definitely has a 20 charisma.

[@coolname-x7f]

I love that Brennan got to use his CEO breaking down voice on dimension 20.

[@BrotherHanan]

🚀✨👽IT'S FINALLY TIME!!! Folks, once again, I've had the distinct honour of working alongside Rick Perry and Katie McGeorge to create D20's TaleSpire battlemaps for you! WOOT! Now I get to watch it as a fan, and I CANNOT WAIT for you all to feast your brains 🧠 on what's coming. This is gunna be wild. Thank you, beloved nerds, and please enjoy!!!

[@rjoe3309]

I'm just in love with Sidney's accent. Emily, what are you doing to my poor little heart?

[@itimk0]

These main characters are incredible, and the fact Brennan is able to make the countless he plays feel just as fleshed out is iconic.

[@elizabethpage_]

These characters are GEMS. This might finally be the series to get me to buy Dropout

[@jills1472]

I've watched/listened to almost every season of dimension 20 and I have to say Dropout is COMPLETELY worth it I know we're all sick of streaming services but I do really recommend this one. A Starstruck Odyssey is so joyous and funny and hopeful and amazing, the combination of Elaine's world building, Brennan's dming, and the whole cast just firing on all cylinders the ball just keeps rolling up and every episode gets better and better

[@peonpoet]

Anyone else love that tiny opening animation change on episode three? Love this new ultra chaotic gang of characters, like everyone’s playing season one Fig

[@NovaBlueNova]

This is such a great way to start a campaign. Right into the action but still with time to explain everyone's backstory and motivation.

[@Melonberr]

I literally paused to look at the character designs for like five minutes they’re so good I can’t wait to see them in action

[@DrLur]

I still can't believe how GREAT episode 1 of this arc is and then episode 2 HAD ME CRY TEARS OF LAUGHTER AND WAS EVEN BETTER 😂😂

[@effiethefey]

Brennan just couldn't pass up the opportunity to play a disappointed ceo once again...

[@JayMick]

For those hesitant to still get dropout. I assure you, THIS is worth it. No spoilers, but if you enjoy a rag tag group who successfully fk over a DM SOOOOO many times while still having a captivating setting and intriguing story- this. This is it. Kudos. I plead eagerly they spin this off as much as Fantasy High was.

[@LiaaaaaaaaAAAAAHH]

They take more BIG swings in this season than all other DnD shows combined 😂 I love it

[@KraggFair]

Operation Slippery Puppet!

[@kennethmcculloch8360]

Brennan has officially inspired me to become a dm for a couple friends of mine! I love how much creative freedom he allows. I've had some pretty boring dms and it sucks!

[@Notbatman374]

Wow. Wow. Wow. Best season of d20. I love this group of intergalactic bozos.

[@jdjack519]

Just finished the Deadeye arc of naddpod. Handy Annie warms my heart.

[@MorbidlyInfuriating]

I would 1000% watch a game show where celebrities dip themselves in paint and you have to decide which celebrity is under the paint.

[@DreadPirateRobrt]

Brennan is a phenomenal and multi talented GM. Bravo to him, the players, and the production crew.

[@AlexEatingChicken]

I hope Margaret comes home to the small town she grew up in for the holidays and throws her ringing phone away after discovering the real value of life. It’s going to be beautiful! I missed them ❤️

[@vickylikesthis]

She does need a break. Spoiler for episode 2: she starts eating yogurt! We know what that means in dimension 20!

[@athenalorenzen]

She'll remember what christmas is all about...family

[@frodomolecule779]

I started watching, Made it halfway through, and suddenly remembered: Wait, I'm already subscribed to DropOut.. Imma go watch it over there.. Loving it so far..

[@pudgeploppins4734]

When I couldn't read Lou's pc name quick enough in the titles, I immediately knew it was gonna be a wild ride.

[@IBQ1]

Literally only started watching 4 days ago as a means to learn to DM but have already consumed somewhere in the region of 25 hours of campaigns. Brennan you are a gift to the D&D community

[@vandama0mossadegh]

The pleasure putty MLM had me and Emily BOTH dying, oh nooooo Riva

[@DubbzDaGod]

Love this crew -- and the fun they're having is mad infectious. I realized 8 mins in that I'd been smiling the whole time.

[@Eldergloom]

"I found myself rapidly leaving my state of arousal."

[@RegstarRogstar]

THREE NAT 1S AMAZING HAIR HOTDOG SPACESHIP IM SO HYPED RN

[@Numb_45]

I love ally so much and I love that we got to see the transformations they have gone thru from fantasy high, the unsleeping city, and everything else to lead to this and its amazing

[@nakenmil]

For the last like, six months or something, I hunted down the Starstruck comics, as they were recommended to me by other comic book enthusiasts (I'd just been binging on Moebius) and so I dug into them. Then, literally as this campaign was announced, I read the last issue of one of the more recent series (the 2009 or something, I think), and there was Brennan's face in it! And then I google, and it turns out his mother is the creator of the Starstruck play and comics! And THEN I find out Dimension 20 is doing a Starstruck-themed campaign. Super weird and cool.

[@quakingphear]

Brennans many CEO critique videos prepared him so well for the droid CEO character ballbusting his way around the boardroom.

[@atticcreationz9475]

I love this spaceship full of enthusiastic bozos so much ❤️ Me yelling excitedly at my TV every episode so far! Dropout has always been so worth it, and somehow, more and more worth it with every season. Amazing work Brennan, Intrepid Heroes, and crew!

[@LiquidxBlack]

Emily's southern accent reminds me to much of Gillian Anderson as Media in American Gods. Great stuff, everyone is fantastic as always!

[@HeroKnife1999]

I just started playing Outer Worlds for the first time, this is fitting perfectly with the setting and humor and stuff.

[@cr820]

That's one of my favorite games! And I fully agree, this game very much fits the vibe, with the whole mega-corporate comedy-dystopia vibe.

[@benzxdrine]

I can't believe more people haven't commented on the incredible artwork! Does a lot for the tone-setting.

[@meltedpoo]

"No thank you insurance "Your intestines are floating in space" 💀💀💀💀💀

[@smiklosovic8971]

Fantasy high has been my favorite Dimention 20 series from the beginning, but I have a feeling this one may top it. I'm so excited to see where this season goes :)
