Sam Reich isn’t expecting an Emmy nomination this year. He isn’t expecting to lose, either.
For the CEO of Dropout, the indie comedy streamer’s first-ever FYC event at the iconic Laugh Factory was never about a single outcome. It was about getting in the room.
“All we’re trying to do is get a little better every year,” Reich tells Variety.
The venue seats roughly 150 people. Dropout’s RSVP list topped 900. But the biggest surprise of the night wasn’t the turnout. It was the appearance of former “Dance Moms” doyenne Abby Lee Miller.
