Favorite YouTubers?

What are your favorite YouTube channels?

Many A True Nerd is definitely my favorite. He's a British video gamer, who was originally working as a banker, with a classical history degree from university, who found that people really liked watching him do goofy things like runs of Fallout 3 and NV, where he kills everyone, or kills nobody. Then tries to play them without ever dying once, and no healing, (You Only Live Once runs). And other various goofy style gaming. He's got a funny sense of humor, an interesting, analytical look at gaming, and their pros/cons, and is just fun to watch for me. Plus he and I tend to have similar tastes in games, so it's pretty good odds that a game he highlights, and enjoys, will probably end up in my library.

The Atheist Experience. While it's difficult for me to watch the show these days, as it's the same, tired, lame ass type calls from religious types, it's still an informative show/channel.

Tiny Kittens HQ. It's a livestream of rescued cats/kittens, usually pregnant cats from a nearby wild cat shelter. You get to watch kittens growing up, being adorable, and playing. Pretty much everything great about the internet.

The Spffing Brit. He's quite fun to watch totally break games by finding their exploits, and highlighting them in a humorous manner. Even for games I have zero interest in playing, it can be a riot to watch him just jack everything up.

Dominic Noble (aka The Dom). He became known when he first was linked to TTWTG, but has since become his own platform. He does "Lost in Adaptation", where he compares book/movie/tv adaptations, and grades them on how accurate they are/aren't to the source material.

Legal Eagle. Lawyer that reviews law movies/tv, and grades them on legal accuracy in a funny way. Lately he's been becoming more IRL activist due to the crazy shit going on in the US, and how the laws are being flouted in ways that disturb him, but he still is an amusing content provider. His review of My Cousin Vinny is one of my favorites.

Matt Baume. LGBTQ content provider, where he reviews tv shows that touch on the topic of LGBTQ representation/subjects, showing them for what they are. He does it in a funny, yet also sort of a historical timeline manner. He also reviews movies with LGBTQ content as well.

I'm sure there are others, but that's the ones I'm thinking of.

There's more that I like, but I don't want to be subscribed to every damn channel.

 

[Catfood220]

Game Grumps: Need no explaination.

Kittisaurus: Korean woman called Claire makes videos of her 10 cats. Its adorable and funny.

Dangerously Funny: A funny deadpan Canadian guy making videos about either exploiting or breaking a game until it crashes or he becomes so over powered that the game is no longer a challenge. Or just doing stupid stuff.

Jim Cornette: Talks about pro wrestling after being a part of it for years. You might remember him in the WWF/WWE.

Jim Sterling: Who doesn't know Jim Sterling?

FTK Computer: Overwatch Youtuber.

Rag Tagg: Not watched in a while but used to play a load of Overwatch but now mostly does a lot of Apex Legends

What Culture: Infotainment about games, wrestling, tv and music.

Gaming/Cinema Sins: Comedy channel taking the piss out of games and films.

Passion of the Nerd: In depth analysis of TV shows, mainly Buffy and Angel.

I'm sure there are more but those are the main ones.

Dominic Noble (aka The Dom). He became known when he first was linked to TTWTG, but has since become his own platform. He does "Lost in Adaptation", where he compares book/movie/tv adaptations, and grades them on how accurate they are/aren't to the source material.

I've been watching him tear the Twilight saga apart, years after people stopped caring about it, it has been quite amusing.

ASMR: , Girlfriend Reviews,

Wait..wut? Girlfriend Reviews does ASMR?

 

[Chimpzy]

Wait..wut? Girlfriend Reviews does ASMR?

Whups, done a bad. Chimpzy fix

 

[happyninja42]

I've been watching him tear the Twilight saga apart, years after people stopped caring about it, it has been quite amusing.

Yeah, I ran into him back in the Nostalgia Critic days, when he dabbled with video game reviews, and he reviewed one of my favorite games of all time Homeworld: Cataclysm. He found that it didn't get much traffic, but his LiA reviews were super popular. And yeah his Twilight videos, are directly because of him reviewing the 50 Shades books, per his patreon supporters. And people were like "Hey, if you think those are bad, you should totally read the original source material those were plagiarized off of!" If you havent' seen his 50 Shades, and enjoy his Twilight ones, you totally need to check those out. They are great. He hates them, like a LOT, so much so that he basically redirected the proceeds from those videos to various charities that support abuse victim groups. But yeah, super funny.

 

[Gordon_4]

MovieBob, Binging with Babish, Atop the Fourrh Wall and Linus Tech Tips are the big favourites

However I get a great deal of joy out of Forgotten Weapons - let Gun Jesus into your hearts - and Spacedock is a wonderful little channel about breaking down ships of science fiction and the guys running it have started doing their own Sci-Fi audio book series called The Sojourn.

 

[Wintermute]

99% of the stuff I "watch" on youtube is either about movies or SPOOKY GHOSTS. I'm sure there's more but, Red Letter Media, Good Bad Flicks, Bedtime Stories, Nexpo, Whang, Stuff Made Here, ChrisFix, etc., any one of these is pretty decent background noise.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

Pretty much just Red Letter Media. Don't spend much time on the Youtube.
I liked Yahtzee's Let's Drown Out series and occasionally rewatch the channel but that has been dead for years now.

Champion Analysis

 

[EvilRoy]

A lot of old goons like:
Supergreatfriend

• has a delightful deadpan approach to games, doesn't swear like a sailor so he's safe to watch around kids, and plays eclectic games of the type I like

"The Posse"

• rode off into the sunset but were composed of a few people, most often Kung-fu Jesus, Medibot and Pokecapn who were a friendly interesting group composed of very divergent personalities. Best known I think for playing the entirety of Sonic 06 straight with a single break to sleep.

Kuvo, Geop and Vicas

• who have decent senses of humour and sometimes approach games in a very entertaining way. My favorite would be Geop playing Dark Souls for the first time, while receiving active advice from Kuvo and Vicas who would often lie or misdirect him about what was about to happen. Each of these guys does solo stuff or stuff with others as well, but this is the grouping I enjoy the most.

Retsupurae,

• which did reasonably solid commentary on longplays leading to some pretty funny moments. Sometimes it can be a little harsh but usually at least entertaining

Research Indicates,

• Did a super informative and interesting of Jurassic Park: Trespasser, a game that was a crazy ambitions experiment that blew.

From Earth,

• I unironically still read screencap letsplays. This was the first run through of Silent Hill I ever saw (read), and were pretty funny. Long since gone from active creation.

TheDarkId,

• Same deal as From Earth, except with Resident Evil this time.

Some more mainstreamers who need no introduction:
Markiplier,
Game Grumps
DBZ Abridged in character playthroughs

Other Stuff
Accursed Farms - Freemans mind, and some of the other "Mind" LPers who popped up as he got popular (Sheperds Mind, Barrys Mind)
Yahtzee - the odd stream and the old Lets Drown Out

 

[Worgen]

OneyPlays - They are idiots but entertaining idiots
Gamegrumps - see above
Destiny - hes mostly pretty smart (his food takes suck) and is a very good debater who even makes listening to him do research entertaining.
Legal Eagle - Really entertaining lawyer who goes over multiple things
Philip Defranco - as far as youtube news sources go, hes one of the best
Overly Sarcastic Productions - They do awesome history and mythology videos
LockPickingLawyer - an expert lock picker who will even gut a lock to show you how the pins work
Late Night with Seth Meyers - A great comedian who covers current evens and politics
Civvie 11 - does playthroughs of classic and no so classic fps games with a nice cynical attitude
SNES drunk - covers old snes and nes and genesis games, just kinda neat
Lindsay Ellis - a great media commentator
RedLetterMedia - an entertaining group that covers new movies and old crap movies.
