Geek & Sundry

Geek & Sundry was a commercial YouTube and Twitch channel and multimedia production company launched on April 2, 2012 by actress Felicia Day with Kim Evey and Sheri Bryant, which later was bought by Legendary Entertainment and merged into Chris Hardwick's Nerdist channel, another subsidiary of Legendary.

In November 2016, Legendary launched its subscription service Project Alpha, which featured original programming from the company's Nerdist and Geek & Sundry teams, including Critical Role's. Alpha shut down effective March 31, 2019, and some of its content moved to Geek & Sundry's Twitch channel.

In June 2018, Critical Role moved to its own studios and their split from Geek & Sundry was complete as of February 2019.

Geek & Sundry's last independent show, Lost Odyssey: The Book of Knowledge, aired in late 2019. With the rise of Covid-19 and global lockdowns in 2020, Geek & Sundry as a tabletop games-centered channel faced social distancing guidelines and took a сompelled and indefinite hiatus. In January 2022, the Geek and Sundry website started to redirect to nerdist.com.
