Dropout Announces New Animated Shots Series Toonout
Dropout is getting back to animation with a new series, as Toonout will drop new animated shorts every other week throughout the year
Article Summary
- Toonout is a new animated short series launching on Dropout, premiering March 24, 2026.
- Every other Tuesday, a new original animated short by independent artists debuts exclusively on Dropout.
- Toonout features work from acclaimed animators like Matt Braly, Victor Courtright, and Violaine Briat.
- Dropout returns to animation, moving beyond previous shows like WTF 101 and Cartoon Hell with Toonout.
Dropout announced an all-new animated short series coming to their platform as they dropped a preview trailer for Toonout. The premise of the show is to showcase original animated shorts created by independent artists, all created specifically for the platform and not featured anywhere else. Also, it looks like these will be original from any other Dropout show, so no animated versions of content you've previously seen.
This isn't the first time the platform has done animation, as they have created shows such as WTF 101 (a twistedly sick parody of The Magic Schoolbus), and hosted programs like Cartoon Hell (featuring the talent of Drawfee). But this feels like they're taking things into a different direction as the idea of having animated shorts feels more like an Adult Swim kind of move. You can check out the teaser trailer and info here as the show will start airing shorts on March 24, 2026.
