The very first trailer for the show has just arrived and you can see how Tig’s singularly dry, unflinchingly honest sense of humor runs through her show.

Dungeons and Dragons certainly doesn’t carry the stigma that it once used to, but that doesn’t mean that making it into engaging television would be easy.

From the looks of this trailer, Season 3 looks like it’s only going to double down again on that formula and we can’t wait for it.
