Dropout has ordered its first new original scripted live-action series since it became Dropout.

The media company formerly known as CollegeHumor will launch a three-episode music video countdown spoof series titled “MP3” on its comedy streaming service Dropout this November.

Per the logline for the new show, “Welcome to the world of ‘MP3’ — a satirical music video countdown show from Dropout featuring three new absurd music videos each episode. Join hosts Dane Cartel (Jeremy Culhane), Dr. Muse-Tina, (Skye Townsend), and Chia (Aparna Nancherla) as they interview wild guests, get into spats with producer Thomas Cartel (Paul F. Tompkins), and introduce new music videos performed by Dropout comedians such as Lou Wilson, Lily Du, Katie Marovitch and more.”
