'Would You Rather?' gets a gross, funny twist with new Watchable show
Watchable is hoping to get viewers hooked to its new series with one simple, age-old question:
Would You Rather?
The Comcast streaming video platform has launched a new series from Cut.com called Dan and Dietrich Play Would You Rather.
In it, the two dudes tackle "would you rather?" questions with twisted twist -- because once they've made their choice, they actually have to go through with the task, no matter how gross, humiliating or potentially damaging.
For example: Would you rather eat the entire McDonald's menu deep fried or blended together into a smoothie? Take a poop in front of 10 strangers or live stream it? Get shot with a rubber bullet or get tased? Watch porn with your parents or fight an MMA fighter?

Comcast's streaming video platform has launched a handful of originals including projects from Refinery29, Buzzfeed and mitú.
All of Watchable's new series are available on Comcast’s Xfinity X1, at Watchable.com.com, and through the Watchable app on Android and Apple devices.
