Your favorite Dungeons and Dragons series is back with a new season. Dimension 20, the tabletop role-playing game show produced by and broadcast on Dropout, and hosted by comedian Brennan Lee Mulligan, just announced the newest storyline and it’s nothing like any D&D plot you’ve heard before. The latest season, titled Never Stop Blowing Up, takes viewers into the world of 1980s action blockbusters, Jumanji style.

The story of Never Stop Blowing Up centers on six strip-mall employees who are unexpectedly sucked into a magic VHS tape.

Never Stop Blowing Up is set to premiere on June 26 on Dropout TV. The announcement came alongside a thrilling first trailer that promises a blend of high-octane action and nostalgic charm.

Never Stop Blowing Up is set to span 10 episodes.

Hosted by the ever-charismatic Mulligan, who is known for his creative storytelling and engaging game mastering, Never Stop Blowing Up will take viewers on a unique journey through the lens of 1980s action movies, as in the players are actually getting sucked into the storylines of classic 80s films.

Mulligan, donning an array of increasingly incinerated outfits as the story progresses, sets the stage for a season that is as explosive as it is adventurous.

The story of Never Stop Blowing Up centers on six strip-mall employees who are unexpectedly sucked into a magic VHS tape. This motley crew is portrayed by a cast featuring long-time Dropout comedians Jacob Wysocki, Ify Nwadiwe, Ally Beardsley, Alex Song-Xia, Isabella Roland, and Rekha Shankar.

Once inside the VHS tape, these seemingly ordinary characters are transformed into larger-than-life action heroes, reminiscent of iconic figures like John McClane from Die Hard, Rambo from Rambo, and Dominic Toretto from The Fast and the Furious (this last one isn’t from the ‘80s, but we’ll forgive them for that). 

The players in Never Stop Blowing Up have one mission: navigate the perilous and bombastic world of the VHS movie to find their way back home.

Dropout’s news release teases that the transformation from mundane mall employees to action heroes will be filled with thrilling and comedic moments. The trailer hints at various tropes and clichés from the action genre, ensuring a nostalgic ride for fans of 1980s cinema.

Additionally, Never Stop Blowing Up appears to incorporate props typically associated with the action genre, featuring items such as a deck of cards, a dynamite bomb, and a pack of cigarettes, which rotate around the table and likely play a crucial role in the gameplay and narrative.

Never Stop Blowing Up is set to span 10 episodes, promising a season packed with explosive action, humor, and the innovative storytelling that Dimension 20 is known for. Fans eagerly anticipating the premiere will have to wait just a few more weeks to dive into this cinematic adventure.
