It is another animated series from Critical Role, this time, based on the second campaign. It takes place 20 years after the first campaign, which was adapted into The Legend of Vox Machina. It\u2019s not a 1:1 recounting of events, but formatted to make a good TV show instead.<\/p>\n<p>And it is a good TV show, as there are a full 14 reviews in, giving it a perfect score, not like, four. It\u2019s too early for audience scores yet. Will that chance? Well, probably not. <\/p>\n<p>The Legend of Vox Machina has a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score as well, but it did so managing to keep those perfect reviews for three seasons, which is no small feat. It ended up with a 94% total audience score as well. So it stands to reason that if the quality of The Mighty Nein remains the same, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/tv\/the_mighty_nein\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/tv\/the_mighty_nein\" aria-label=\"we should see similar results\">we should see similar results<\/a>, and this is one of the most acclaimed western animated series I\u2019ve ever seen, given these results across four seasons of two shows.<\/p>\n<p>The Mighty Nein brings back almost the entire voice cast of The Legend of Vox Machina, this time playing different roles. That includes the likes of Laura Bailey, Matthew Mercer and Ashley Johnson, three of the biggest names in video game voicework especially, along with Taliesin Jaffe, Liam O\u2019Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Reigel, Travis Willingham and more. <\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK, NEW YORK &#8211; OCTOBER 09: (L-R) Liam O&#8217;Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, Laurie Hernandez, Matthew Mercer, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham, Taliesin Jaffe and Ashley Johnson attend Critical Role &amp; Prime Video: A Decade of Adventure and The Animated World of Exandria during New York Comic Con 2025 at The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center on October 09, 2025 in New York City.

I would have to imagine they would be, given how beloved Critical Role is and how good these series are. But in the world of streaming, you just cannot take anything for granted. <\/p>\n<p>This is not a binge release. The first three episodes are out today, but the last five will air weekly on Wednesdays with the final on Christmas Eve. I\u2019m looking forward to it, and I imagine all Critical Role fans are as well. <\/p>\n<p>Follow me <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulTassi\" aria-label=\"on Twitter\">on Twitter<\/a>, <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ?sub_confirmation=1\" aria-label=\"YouTube\">YouTube<\/a><a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCg6K8i6OGobyZNoPIsCW9uQ\" aria-label=\",\">,<\/a> and <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/paul.tassi\/?hl=en\" aria-label=\"Instagram\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Pick up my sci-fi novels the <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08G1MRFTM?ref_=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_tkin&amp;binding=kindle_edition\" aria-label=\"Herokiller series\">Herokiller series<\/a> and <a class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B08KYDGG73?binding=paperback&amp;ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk\" aria-label=\"The Earthborn Trilogy\">The Earthborn Trilogy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I just wrote up a list of four recent 100% Rotten Tomatoes-scored shows you should be watching, but&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":271978,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[96,18685,111859,391,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-271977","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-rotten-tomatoes","10":"tag-the-mighty-nein","11":"tag-tv","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom","14":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271977","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=271977"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/271977\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271978"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271977"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=271977"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=271977"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
