Ad for Critical Recap aired during a Critical Role episode
Critical Recap is a series of blog posts summarizing the events of Critical Role episodes, written by Dani Carr and published every Wednesday on CritRole.com. The recaps began with Campaign Two and are ongoing. Before 2020, the recaps were presented in video format.
When Critical Role moved from Geek & Sundry's channel, Dani's recaps from "Labenda Awaits" (2x20) to "A Game of Names" (2x49) were lost and "The Endless Burrows" (2x50) was skipped. To fill the missing gap and help people catch up on campaign two, Critical Role Wiki listed fan-made, detailed summaries by James Haeck.

Between "Zemnian Nights" (2x11) and "Unwanted Reunions" (2x88), Critical Recap was a webseries hosted by Dani Carr.
