Loose Canon is a series of video essays by media critic and essayist Lindsay Ellis. The series covers the topic of what is 'canon', and how canon portrayals of characters and events change over time, making the idea of a singular true canon essentially impossible to identify. The series is both comical and serious in turn, and covers topics from Transformers to Greek Gods to 9/11.
