List of Dungeons & Dragons web series
Wikimedia list article
Wizards of the Coast has created, produced and sponsored multiple web series featuring Dungeons & Dragons. These shows have typically aired on the official Dungeons & Dragons Twitch and YouTube channels as well as the Dungeons & Dragons Adventures FAST channel. Some have been adapted into podcasts.
Overview
In 2008, the creators of Penny Arcade partnered with Wizards of the Coast to create a podcast of a few 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons adventures which led to the creation of Acquisitions Incorporated. After the podcast was well-received, the players began livestreaming games starting in 2010 at the PAX festival. Academic Emily Friedman, writing for Los Angeles Review of Books in 2023, discussed the origins and evolution of this show, noting that "every iteration has included D&D staff as part of its cast"; she explained the show "was 'official' but never acquired by" Wizards of the Coast and remains independent with its creators owning the intellectual property. According to Friedman, this model – "with a few exceptions" – became Wizards of the Coast's "playbook" for engaging with actual play productions.
Greg Tito, a senior communications manager for Dungeons & Dragons, explained he wanted to develop actual play shows after watching the success of the independent web series The Adventure Zone (launched in 2014) and Critical Role (launched in 2015) which led Wizards of the Coast to develop and launch Dice, Camera, Action in 2016. Tito said that show was "insanely popular" and "the success of that allowed us to create relationships with smaller tabletop roleplayers that were in front of an audience. The entire ecosystem began to grow from there".
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “List of Dungeons & Dragons web series” as wikimedia list article. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as wikimedia list article. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q107600178. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2008, 2010, 2023 and 2014.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
