Due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, Critical Role's Campaign 3 will be skipping its scheduled episode this week (January 9th). The cast, crew, and community have been directly impacted by the fires. While a return to streaming is planned for January 16th, further delays are possible depending on the evolving situation.
Campaign 3 is nearing its highly anticipated finale, leaving fans on a major cliffhanger after a pivotal episode. The exact number of remaining episodes is yet to be confirmed, but the conclusion of this campaign is imminent, potentially paving the way for a new campaign using Critical Role's Daggerheart TTRPG system.
Several cast and crew members have shared their experiences with the fires. Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray had to evacuate quickly, while Dani Carr was thankfully safe, and Kyle Shire unfortunately lost his home. The Critical Role community has expressed relief at the safety of those involved and is offering support.
The Critical Role Foundation, supported by community donations, is contributing $30,000 to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund to aid those affected by the fires. The show's motto, "Don't forget to love each other," resonates deeply as both the cast and the Critters navigate this difficult time. Fans are urged to be patient and offer support where possible.
