Impact of SAG-AFTRA Strike on Critical Role and Dimension 20
Critical Role and Dimension 20: Navigating the Strike with Style!
Attention all gamers and fantasy aficionados! It’s time to delve into the exciting world of Critical Role and Dimension 20 as they face a strikingly challenging situation. The Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) has gone on a multimedia strike against the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), and our favorite actual play shows are caught in the crossfire.
Different Approaches, Common Cause
Both Critical Role and Dimension 20 have come out in support of the SAG strike, amplifying the voices of their fellow actors. However, their strategies for navigating this stormy sea differ.
Dimension 20: A Pause for Solidarity
Sam Reich, CEO of Dimension 20’s parent company CollegeHumor, made an official statement outlining their game plan. Since several members of the executive team belong to the Screen Actors Guild, the decision was made to temporarily halt production on all new content. While Dimension 20 and other Dropout entertainment aren’t affiliated with the AMPTP, they stand united with their striking comrades. Production will resume once the SAG’s rightful demands are met.
Critical Role: Forge Ahead!
The vibrant world of Critical Role is also firmly behind their fellow actors in their fight for fair treatment. The voice actors on the show are proud SAG members and have vowed unwavering support. However, unlike Dimension 20, Critical Role has decided to continue releasing content as scheduled, as they are not directly connected to the AMPTP. The team remains vigilant and prepared to adapt if circumstances change.

“We fully support the strike and stand in solidarity with our fellow actors. Currently, our release schedule is not impacted by the strike, but we will continue to evaluate and take the necessary steps should it be impacted in the future.”
Independently Improvisational, Collaboratively Committed
Both shows, known for their improvisational nature, find themselves in a peculiar position within the strike. While they operate independently, the differing approaches to post-production add unique challenges. Rest assured, loyal fans, eagerly awaiting new episodes of Critical Role or Dimension 20, you can enjoy their content without crossing any picket lines!
The Adventure Continues!
Don’t fret, fellow adventurers! While the strike carries on, there is still much excitement to look forward to. Dropout, with its treasure trove of content, is armed with a backlog that can sustain us well into the year’s end, according to Reich. And as for Critical Role, their third campaign is set to reach unparalleled heights! With a monumental live show scheduled for October 25 and two thrilling panels at San Diego Comic-Con on July 20, fans can rest assured that the adventure has only just begun.
So, buckle up and brace yourselves for the incredible journey that awaits. Whether you choose Critical Role or Dimension 20, the magic of storytelling will prevail, uniting us all in our shared love for gaming, fantasy, and unforgettable adventures!
