What is Critical Role?

Critical Role is a group of nerdy-ass voice actors who sit around and play Dungeons & Dragons.

Streams every Thursday at 7pm PT and then rebroadcasts the following Friday at 12am and 9am PT on Twitch.

trigger warningDue to the improv nature of Critical Role and other RPG content on our channels, some themes and situations that occur in-game may be difficult for some to handle. If certain episodes or scenes become uncomfortable, we strongly suggest taking a break or skipping that particular episode.

They are all actors, so do you think they will go on hiatus while the strike is active?

They are all SAG-AFTRA members as far as I know, and LoVM is a covered work so anything related to the show is likely on hold including con appearances (though it’s an animation work which seems to be in a grey area based on what I’ve read on SAGAFTRAs website). The stream though is not a covered work so can likely continue (and since they all need to make a living I would assume they will continue).

Pretty much what I think as well.

Good point on con appearances. I just saw Felicia Day post that her SDCC appearance has to follow SAGAFTRA strike and they won't discuss anything related to TV/movies. I wondered if this would impact CR's SDCC appearance as well. But if as you said, animation is not covered, then I think they should be ok?

Doesn’t seem like it. Not sure if you ever got your answer, but this article says CR and D20 won’t be affected.
