RWBY
RWBY is Rooster Teeths world-renowned, award-winning anime series that tells the story of four different girls brought together for one legendary purpose. Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang are students at Beacon Academy, an ancient school designed to train the monster-slayers known as Hunters and Huntresses. Unfortunately, monsters arent the only threat in the world of Remnant, and if these girls want to graduate, theyll have to learn to work together - both on the battlefield and in the classroom. The fifth volume (season) of RWBY premieres on Rooster Teeth FIRST on October 14, 2017.

Crunch Time
Critically acclaimed Crunch Time is a half-hour sci-fi adventure comedy starring Samm Levine (Freaks and Geeks, Inglourious Basterds), Nick Rutherford (Good Neighbor, Saturday Night Live), Jessy Hodges (Greys Anatomy, True Blood), Avery Monsen (Maron, High Maintenance), Brent Morin (How to Be Single, Undateable), Michael Hyatt (Nightcrawler, True Detective), Kirk Johnson (Lazer Team), and Burnie Burns (The Amazing Race, Lazer Team). In a highly classified location, four brilliant, jackass grad students are interrogated by government operatives. Why? Because after using reckless cutting-edge science for their own petty purposes, this rag tag team creates a small but potentially world-ending black hole in their college lab. The clock is ticking for this secret government agency to clean up the mess...and the students dont know what the hell they did to tear open the fabric of space and time. The solution? T- tell these government operatives EVERY illegal thing theyve done in the lab Season 1 of Crunch Time premiered in 2016 on Rooster Teeth FIRST.
