The 10 Best Episodes of *Game Changer* You Can’t Miss Before Season 8

Dropout’s chaotic flagship show returns May 18, 2026, with Season 8 promising even bigger stakes. But before you dive in, these 10 standout episodes prove why *Game Changer* is more than just madness—it’s a masterclass in comedy, creativity and heart. From improv battles to emotional tributes, here’s what makes the series unforgettable.

10. Whodunnit (Season 1, Episode 4)

The series’ debut season laid the groundwork for *Game Changer*’s future, and Whodunnit stands out as a murder-mystery game that’s as clever as it is silly. Rekha Shankar and Grant O’Brien play detectives solving a fictional crime, with Shankar’s comedic timing stealing the show. The twist ending—revealed through a series of rapid-fire jokes—proves that even early episodes had the DNA of the show’s later brilliance.

9. Like My Coffee (Season 4, Episode 2)

A game of innuendo might sound tame, but *Game Changer* turns it into a high-stakes improv battle. Grant O’Brien, Jess Ross, and former Um, Actually host Mike Trapp compete to deliver the most suggestive (but not *too* suggestive) lines. The episode’s rapid-fire delivery and the cast’s chemistry make it a fan favorite—and it even returned as a “game samer” in Season 5.

8. Second Place (Season 6, Episode 1)

Brennan Lee Mulligan isn’t the only contestant in this episode, but his ultra-competitive persona clashes deliciously with Sam Reich’s scheming. The premise? Players earn points for being the “most mid”—a concept that spirals into absurdity as Reich manipulates the rules. The tension between Mulligan’s frustration and the cast’s laughter makes this a highlight of Season 6.

7. Don’t Cry (Season 4, Episode 7)

Not every *Game Changer* episode is a game—sometimes, it’s a celebration. This episode was created to uplift Jess Ross after a demanding period (including a postponed wedding and surgery). What starts as a silly “don’t cry” challenge evolves into a heartfelt fake wedding ceremony performed by Bob the Drag Queen. It’s a rare moment of sincerity in a show known for chaos.

6. One Year Later (Season 7, Episode 1)

A follow-up to Sam Says 3, this episode gives Vic Michaelis, Lou Wilson, and Jacob Wysocki 15 assignments to complete over a year. Their creative (and sometimes absurd) solutions—like Wysocki donating nearly $3,000 to a domestic violence nonprofit—highlight the show’s ability to balance comedy with kindness. It’s a testament to the cast’s bond and Reich’s knack for turning challenges into something meaningful.

5. Noise Boys (Season 4, Episode 3)

The legendary trio of Brennan Lee Mulligan, Zac Oyama, and Josh Ruben return for another round of noise-making chaos. While their first appearance in Make Some Noise was iconic, this episode shines with Oyama’s impeccable comedic timing. The group’s dynamic—equal parts competitive and hilarious—makes this a must-watch for fans of their improvisational brilliance.

4. Rulette (Season 7, Episode 7)

Pure, unfiltered *Game Changer* chaos. Players are stuck in velcro suits with absurd rules (like speaking in a sing-song voice or being extra polite), and the episode culminates in Jeremy Culhane taking over as host from Reich. The ending—where Culhane’s antics spiral into madness—is a perfect example of the show’s unpredictability. It even returned as a game samer for Season 8.

3. Sam Says 3 (Season 6, Episode 3)

A game for babies becomes a nightmare for adults. Reich’s devious twists—like letting the players think the game is over, only to bring them back for a post-party deduction—are pure genius. The episode’s mix of physical comedy and psychological manipulation makes it a standout in the Sam Says trilogy.

2. Escape the Greenroom (Season 5, Episode 9)

This episode introduced many fans to *Game Changer*, and it’s easy to see why. Reich traps Brennan Lee Mulligan, Siobhan Thompson, and Lou Wilson in an escape-room-style greenroom, forcing them to solve puzzles while venting their frustrations. The blend of problem-solving and comedic rants makes it a fan favorite—and a perfect example of the show’s meta-humor.

1. Bingo (Season 6, Episode 5)

The pinnacle of *Game Changer*’s layered chaos. Players perform comedic prompts to earn bingo draws, but the real madness comes from behind-the-scenes behavior bingo cards tracking their actions (like Mulligan making D&D references). With three tiers of gameplay, this episode delivers the show’s most complex—and hilarious—mindfuck. It’s no surprise it inspired the *Game Changer* board game.
