An immersive, hilarious, exciting, fun, must-watch show. I'll admit, it's not going to be for everyone. But, those that don't like it, might not have a pulse!

I found this show a long time ago while browsing Geek and Sundry after finishing off a season of TableTop (another excellent series), at first it didn't click. I thought, "why would I, someone who has their own Dungeons and Dragons group, want to watch other people play it? It just wouldn't be the same". But, I started watching, and enjoying. Throughout the show, Matthew Mercer stands at the forefront of some of the best storytelling I have ever witnessed in both a D&D campaign and show in general. His vivid descriptions of the scene and true embodiment of his characters draw you into the game and world that he has created. The players are natural and their bond as friends shines through in their role playing, each character is detailed, engaging and enjoyable.The cast are hilarious and spout amazing scenes and one liners like its going out of fashion. Every episode engages and tugs on your emotions whether its joy or sorrow during the more role play intensive moments.The show is incredible and really only does it justice to watch and experience for yourself.Don't forget, the plan will fall apart quicker than you can shout jenga.

Critical Role is a great show suitable for anyone who has ever enjoyed watching Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones or the likes. The magical fantasy setting of Dungeons and Dragons is brought to life by these amazing voice actors. In time, these players will grow on you, and they will take you on an emotional journey, both sad and hilarious.I'd recommend starting of with episode 24, as things start to really pick up at this point. Start here, and after one episode, you will never look back.

This is easily the best visual experience of my life. The connection the community feels to each other, to the people in the show, and to the game itself is incredible and I've been hooked -- nearly obsessed -- since the first half hour I saw. The experience is one that will resonate with you throughout your life and I sincerely hope this group continues in one form or another for decades to come.This is the first and only time I've been tempted to send something to the actors, and even with only a fan letter I am waiting on pins and needles to know if they even got the letter.Less than three you guys!P.S. Includes more than a bit of swearing, some inappropriate humor and lots and lots of nerdiness.
