Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures—a free ad-supported (FAST) channel devoted to the ever-popular roleplaying game—launches soon, and Hasbro Entertainment has released new clips showcasing the three original series (including a cooking show!) arriving the week of November 13.
First up, Faster, Purple Worm! Kill! Kill!, is described as “comedic mayhem with tabletop gaming stars and celebrity guest players, including Seth Green, Anjali Bhimani, Skeet Ulrich, Sean Gunn, Mica Burton, Patton Oswalt, and series co-creator Matthew Lillard. Perfect for seasoned gamers and newbies alike, every episode features an improvised, stand-alone story along with epic, hilarious character deaths.” Faster, Purple Worm! Kill! Kill!’s schedule will feature new episodes on Thursdays and Saturdays at 9 p.m. ET and PT.
Then, there’s Encounter Party, in which “seven actors play Dungeons & Dragons to create an improvised high-fantasy adventure story. Over the course of 22 serialized episodes, Dungeon Master and co-executive producer Brian David Judkins and six talented players, including Khary Payton and co-executive producer Ned Donovan, guide their characters from the high seas to the dangerous streets of Baldur’s Gate, and into the very jaws of fate.” The schedule for Encounter Party is Tuesdays and Fridays at 9 p.m. ET and PT.
And finally, for some variety (and because gaming makes you hungry!), there’s Heroes’ Feast, in which “hosts ‘Chef Mike’ Haracz and actor/filmmaker Sujata Day prepare dishes, desserts, and cocktails from the Dungeons & Dragons cookbook with the help of special guests including Khary Payton, Michelle Nguyen Bradley, Jonah Ray, Freddie Wong and more.” The schedule for Heroes’ Feast is Mondays and Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET and PT.
While these original shows will launch the week of November 13, Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures will kick off with “a preview week of legacy Dungeons & Dragons content” starting November 8; the FAST channel will first pop up on Amazon Freevee and Plex, with more platforms coming in the future.
Once Dungeons & Dragons: Adventures officially launches, additional programming will include the cult-beloved D&D animated series from the 1980s, as well as third-party content like Actual Play series Rivals of Waterdeep, High Rollers, DesiQuest, and more.
