Dear Festividder

This is the latest letter in the world, but posting in case helpful for any potential treat makers etc.

Fandoms:
BBC/Love Productions Reality Shows With Names Starting 'The Great' [UMBRELLA], Brennan Lee Mulligan RPF, Critical Role (Web Series) RPF, Dimension 20 (Web Series), Exandria Unlimited: Calamity (Web Series), A League of Their Own (TV 2022), Pride (2014) [SAFETY], Spy (2015) [SAFETY], Star Trek: Lower Decks (Cartoon)  





BBC/Love Productions Reality Shows With Names Starting 'The Great' [UMBRELLA]' is the incredibly clunky attempt to capture The Great British Bake Off, The Great Pottery Throw Down, and The Great British Sewing Bee!

I love these chill creative competition shows very much. Everyone’s just here to do their best! All the contestants are delightful! Most of the judges are also delightful (ugh, Paul Hollywood). Anything from any of these shows about the highs and lows, the camaraderie, or anything else that speaks to you would be lovely. If there was a way I could have framed the umbrella fandom to include the Great Canadian Baking Show as well I would have because that also delights me, so if you want to include it please do!

Brennan Lee Mulligan RPF

Brennan Lee Mulligan is a comedian and ttrpg actual play player/game master and I love him very much. I love his complete lack of chill, his incredible unhinged rants, his deep commitment to heartfelt storytelling and how much he loves gassing up his friends (and mom!), and he is SO funny.

I love his College Humor stuff like the CEO series, everything he does on Game Changer, and all the TTRPG series like Dimension 20, EXU Calamity, Battle for Beyond, TAZ etc.

Truly any vid would delight me. Some links to some favourite clips for inspiration:

Dimension 20

I love every season, but particular faves include Unsleeping City, Escape from the Bloodkeep, The Seven, Starstruck Odyssey, and A Court of Fey and Flowers.

Critical Role RPF

Truly anything here would make me happy, whether you want to focus on the main cast, guests, the EXU casts, anything you like.

Exandria Unlimited: Calamity

Unsurprisingly given my previous fandoms here, I LOVED this. Such a phenomenal cast. I have watched the whole thing maybe four times now? It’s just such a rich story in only four sessions, everyone is at the top of their game, and it makes me laugh and sob every time. Absolutely anything you wanted to do, about the players, the characters, the world, would delight me.

A League of Their Own

QUEER BASEBALL LADIES. I loved everything about this. I’d enjoy a vid focused on any aspect, but one thing I loved was all the different friendships like Max and Clance, Greta and Joey and Lupe and Jess.

Pride

A film of my heart, it’s just perfect.

Spy

Another perfect film of my heart! I adore Melissa McCarthy in this, and truly everyone’s on point. Jason Statham’s finest role for sure, everything he does is hysterical.

Star Trek: Lower Decks

When I signed up I was confident I would have completely caught up, which I have not done, oops! However, I don’t mind spoilers at all (I’m halfway through season 2) and I love everything the show does.
