I noticed this entry under CriticalRole:
Expy: The Call of Cthulhu one-shot has all the player characters line up roughly with the characters of Cluedo - Alexandra Elise O'Neill is the mature and worldly-wise Mrs Peacock; Hanako Hayashi is the younger Proper Lady like Miss Scarlett; Dr Mason Pocket is obviously Professor Plum; Cpt Bentley Badger is Colonel Mustard; Septimus Goodfellow is a non-Christian take on Reverend Green; and Ida Codswell is actually a recent addition, Dr Orchid, intended as a replacement for Mrs White.
The thing is, I can't find any evidence that this was done deliberately (there is an article from Taliesin Jaffe about the process of creating the characters, and it doesn't mention Clue at all), and honestly it seems like a stretch to me (especially Septimus, given that Mr. Green hasn't been Rev. Green in the American version of the game for a while, and the players are all American). I wanted to remove this for speculation, but I guess it's fine if Expies don't have to be deliberate on the part of the creator.
