Sketches on Main Channel

On his personal channel, Ryan has been making short skits where he often talks to himself as another character. Earlier skits were only around 30 seconds or less, but more recent skits have been a bit longer, and more elaborate, being around 2 to 5 minutes long. His humor tends to lean towards the observational, deconstructing unquestioned aspects of everyday life. He usually plays multiple roles in his videos, using things like glasses, fake mustaches and hats to distinguish between characters. In December of 2018, he started a series called "The First Guy", looking at the supposed origins of basic things that people often take for granted.

Collab with Screen Rant

In November of 2017, Ryan George and Screen Rant launched the series "Pitch Meetings" which consists of Ryan George playing both a screenwriter and a movie producer. In the skits, he comedically summarizes movies and TV shows by "pitching" ideas to a studio executive, often pointing out questionable elements and plot holes. The series was successful, and the channel rose in popularity as a result.

The series has many running jokes and catchphrases said in almost every episode, such as, "Super easy, barely an inconvenience" when the producer character asks the screenwriter a question relating to the joke or "(blank) is tight" when both characters agree on the same subject, often being an inappropriate joke relating to it. Other catchphrases include "I don't know" when one of the characters is asked a question he doesn't have an answer to, and "whoops, whoopsie" (the screenwriter and the producer replying to each other).

TV Career

Along with his Moving Mind Studio partners, Ryan also created in and starred in the TV show "Campus Law" produced by superstar comedian Kevin Hart for the Laugh Out Loud Network.
