The Guild was an early web series. The show was one of the earliest viral successes and helped establish Youtube as a video platform. It’s a love letter to nerd culture that help establish the online geek culture that followed.

The show follows Codex / Cyd, played by creator Felicia Day, and her guild The Knights of Good in their online and real world adventures.
