[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7767403, member: 7006"] Last I heard, both Geek and Sundry and Nerdist were owned by the digital wing of Legendary Entertainment and operated under their Project Alpha wing... which means that like with all corporate movie studios the people in charge can and do change on occasion, and when that happens all manner of other changes / cancellations / reworkings can occur. So I have no idea what kind of rules/pressures/changes Legendary and Alpha may have put onto G&S, which in turn may have changed things internally with Critical Role. And thus CritRole made the move out from under the G&S umbrella to open their own studio and make their own additional content. Obviously because the primary CR show is still released under the Project Alpha banner there must be a contract and/or agreement to do so (either for the time being or the long term)... but for everything else the eight CritRole cast must have wanted their own autonomy for the other projects without needing to run things through the G&S/Nerdist/Alpha pipeline. There could very well be something going on internally over at Alpha, because Kyle Hill also started his own Because Science channel through which his shows also get released in addition to Alpha. So its a safety net to keep the show online if something happens at Alpha at some point which results in cancellations or the stoppage of funding for certain programs if the Legendary board decides to divest themselves of the channels.
