Critical Role - Ep97 Animatic: Fjord and Beau Detective Adventures Collab

Ugly is a matter of perspective my friend. Personally I like it, it's something fresh. :)

"I assumed you could hold your shit" is the funniest line coming from Caduceus.

[@IrregularCharlie]

He must teach Beau the way of chilling.

To be fair, that was Taliesin, not Caduceus. He wasn't even in the same room.

DnD really is it's own fantasty improv workshop.

[@davfree9732]

There's a British space comedy called Red Dwarf that played in front of a live studio audience. When the actors told the joke, they could hear the audience and let the audience ride it out... then pick up from their next line. Then one day they went big budget and switched to canned laughter. The whole show lost it's charm despite going for bigger and flashier stories and FX... Then they switched back, and the actors breathed a sigh of relief. They had the audience back to gauges their work off.
