Due to the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, this week's episode of Critical Role's Campaign 3 is cancelled. The impact on the cast, crew, and community has necessitated this postponement. While a return on January 16th is hoped for, further delays are possible.
Campaign 3 is nearing its thrilling conclusion, with the recent episode ending on a dramatic cliffhanger. The exact number of remaining episodes is yet to be determined, but the end of this campaign is imminent, potentially paving the way for a new campaign utilizing the Daggerheart TTRPG system.
The January 9th stream was canceled due to the wildfires' direct impact on the team. Matt Mercer and Marisha Ray were forced to evacuate, while Dani Carr narrowly escaped the flames. Sadly, producer Kyle Shire lost his home and belongings, though he and his pets are safe. Other cast members have shared their relief at being unharmed.
While a one-week delay is planned, further postponements are understandable given the ongoing situation. Fans are urged to be patient and support those affected by the fires. The Critical Role Foundation is reflecting this spirit, donating $30,000 to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund. The Critical Role community is embodying the show's message: "Don't forget to love each other."
