Thought this might be a fun topic to discuss, who are your favorite youtubers? I've previously mentioned I enjoy watching Cultaholic for the comedic aspect they bring to their channel along with the good wrestling news. But here's some of my other favorites.

Brian Hull:
I'm seriously amazed at how good this guy can do impressions of Disney characters. He often does drive thru pranks with his impressions with the goal of just making the employees laugh as well as going to Disneyland to do impressions of the characters to the characters, which has led to some funny reactions like featured below. When I need a laugh, his channel is pretty good for that.

BrizzyVoices:
Another voice actor who does impressions, but I also enjoy her Harry Potter videos. I don't think she's quite as good at impressions as Brian but she does very well on some of the ones she does. I first discovered her channel through Pokemon and South Park impressions years ago and think she's come a long way from that and gotten better along the way even if those were also good.

So let's hear from you guys now, who are some of your favorite youtubers and why? I have some others I enjoy watching too but didn't wanna post too many so I picked my top 2 favorites currently. Feel free to post a video from said channel for others to enjoy as well.

I don't really watch anything on YouTube that isn't music videos but there are a couple of YouTube channels that I have happened across that I really like. First, it's important to mention that I am a massive horror fan. Before I met my fiance, I watched a horror movie every single day pretty much. She's not a fan of horror movies at all, so that's kinda feel by the weyside. Alas, I only manage to watch horror in little pockets. My first channel that I really like is called GloomyHouse.

GloomyHouse is a channel dedicated to bringing you some of the weirdest and creepiest stuff in the world. A lot of their stuff comes from Internet sources but they're still worth a watch. It's about as palatable as my fiance can really stomach because it doesn't tend to get too managing or too over the line. However, they do manage to pick some really cool subjects and delve right in.

Ozzyman Reviews is another personal favourite of mine. I've been a fan of this guy for what seems like years now but he is finally getting some exposure. I don't know what it is but I find the Australian accent to be hilarious and some of the slang is brilliant. Ozzyman does video reviews better than anyone else around I think. He also does reviews of Game of Thrones episodes after each episode and those are a real highlight. Well worth checking out if you haven't already.

I still don't understand how people who post YouTube videos are considered -stars-. Anytime Hollywood grabs one of these yahoos and tries to make a movie with them it bombs hard. The only Youtuber I follow is Angry Joe, there's a show that's watchable at least and funny without being mind numbingly loud like these other wannabes often try, just for attention. Anytime I'm watching Wrestling or a premier and they mention YouTube Star Bla Bla Bla is here, I never know who the hell it is or what makes them a star. The saddest part of all this is the obscene amount of money these nobody's make for posting videos and yelling at the screen, begging over and over to fucking subscribe to their channel. It's complete nonsense.

StarWarsTheory. He does an excellent job of reviewing all things star wars. Anything from video games to books and everything in between. For Star Wars fans, this is a channel that won't disappoint.

I follow a bunch of Borderlands Youtubers including Hayder Hyper & VinylicPuma Gaming.

My all time favorite though is SupMatto. I enjoy his speculation videos on BL3 as well as his history of videos on all the different characters. His Discord server is pretty fun too.

I tend to stay away from gamers. Tried watching but they all seem to overreact and that's a peeve of mine. It's a video game, not a fucking duel, you know?

I do love my movie reviewers though. Guys like Nostalgia Critic, Honest Trailers, Wisecrack, etc. At least when these guys overreact, it's not with a controller in their hands.

Milenko, scale of 1-10, how hard is your dick over Borderlands? Out of actual curiosity, which of the 4 games (counting TFTB as one entire game) is your favorite?

A Solid 9/10

I love them all for different reasons.

The fist one is awesome because it's the first one I ever played.

The 2nd has my all time favorite character in Krieg the Physcho

The Pre-Sequal is innocent fun if a bit to short. Also who doesn't love playing as Claptrap?

Tales i loves the episodic style of it that added a ton of lore when Grearbox made it Canon.

Gun to my head however I'd probably go with 2. There really isn't a bad character to pick and with the DLC you get hundreds of more hours and thecl 2nd tier difficulty in True Vault Hunter Mode which adds even more replay value. Not to mention the Headhunter packs i haven't been able to afford yet.

I watch more YouTube than I do TV, to be honest- hell, I hardly watch TV shows aside from Raw and SDL.

As for my favorite YouTubers, DashieXP takes the first slot. I don't care much for gamers on YouTube (ironic as I'm a Twitch streamer and have a YouTube channel, but whatever), but Dashie is actually entertaining. I could care less about whatever game he is playing (though he usually plays shit I like) and I'd still watch it. Funny guy. He originally used to do cartoon voiceover parodies and skits before he started gaming, however, and I hope he gets back to more of that soon, as he claims to.

At a very close second is idubbbz. Hilarious guy, enough said.

For the sake of ending this post, I'll cap it off with a third and mention Stryder7x. Guy is notorious for breaking Paper Mario, which is my favorite game. It's crazy to see the shit he and his buddies can do in that game.

I think 2 is the best as well. One, for me, had better playable characters personality wise but with all the DLC that came with 2, it told a much better and deeper story. Plus you got Tiny Tina and Mr. Torgue. The Pre-Sequel was fun, mostly because it was self aware and pushed the absurd factor of the series.

To stay on topic, one of my favorite YTers is Maddox. I used to read his site fairly regularly, and now I enjoy the videos he puts out.

Brendaniel is another I like. He does dramatic readings of famous threads from places like 4chan, reddit, and Facebook. Check out his channel for the Denko story if nothing else.

CaptainDisillusion is a decent watch. He takes famous viral videos and puts them through tests and science to test their validity. Sort of Myth Busters meets guy in a superhero costume.

If you are into political comedy, Trae Crowder is a hoot.

The only gamer/streamer I really like is DrDisRespect. Just watching a guy go out of his way to be a dick to those he encounters online really speaks to me.

A couple more non wrestling/borderlands related are WhatCulture's comics and gaming channel.

Since the wrestling guys left they're the only WhatCulture channels i ever pay attention to anymore

I follow the Screen Junkies pretty closely. Love Honest Trailers and Movie Fights. I always thought it'd be fun to do something like Movie Fights on the forums. Also, I love Screw Attack and their Death Battle. Just had Raven vs. some magical pony. Other than that I'm pretty much just watching movie and tv reviews, ESPN clips of their shows, IGN, video game reviews, and music videos.

EDIT: Can't believe I left off Team Fourstar with Dragon Ball Z Abridged. That shit is hilarious. It's going to take them another 20 years to get through the series, but what they have is awesome.

I usually limit myself to let's play youtubers. Markiplier, Jacksepticeye etc. Pewdiepie, but for different reasons. Fitz and SovietWomble for comedy (their gaming videos are completely different from let's play).

I stay away from anything news or politics on Youtube.

I don’t watch much on YouTube, but I do enjoy watching Dom Mazzetti (BroScienceLife) and Infinite Elgintensity. Occasionally I’ll watch Seth Feroce if something catches my eye.

VlogBrothers is my favorite YouTube channel. I think Hank Green should be president.

I also really like First We Feast, particularly Hot Ones, the talk show with hot questions, and even hotter wings. They get really great guests and the interviewer is very charming, very polite, and does his research.

For video game related stuff I watch videogamedunkey, AVGN, and Zero Punctuation. That's about it. I used to like Up Up Down Down, but I don't really follow wrestling anymore and 90% of their videos were uninteresting to me. I don't care about WWE 2k or Madden tournaments, Cesaro's Clash of Clans bullshit, Rocket League, etc.

Other than that, most of the videos I watch on YouTube are produced by media companies. Vox has a great YouTube channel with lots of informative videos about all sorts of topics, Vice puts out a few decent videos each week, Wired often does goofy interview segments with people I'm interested in, and MentalFloss is usually good for 10 minutes of random facts about random shit.

I follow 2 gaming channels and pretty much can't stand the rest I've looked at. I enjoy watching Gore and Perkins mainly for their WWE content but I've enjoyed some GTA content they've uploaded too. They're funny and keep things entertaining while they play, and their WWE universe videos have good storylines to them usually to keep me invested.

And I like Not The Expert for Madden videos, he's not one of those over the top gamers and I like watching his speed rebuild videos he'll do with other Madden youtubers and it's an idea I've wanted to steal to use myself with friends.

I'm not as big into YouTube but I'm a fan of the Channel Awesome people. You have Nostalgia Critic, Atop the 4th Wall, The Cinema Snob, and a former talent of theirs called Video Games AWESOME. The latter is a smaller show from Canada, mainly consisting of the host Fraser (imagine if Sly had a Let's Play) and his girlfriend Becky, who is rather adorable at times but isn't just there because she's a girl. They do a good mix of indy games and big titles but it's a lot of fun, especially with some of their lesser known titles.

Oh and of course Angry Video Game Nerd, who was doing this a long time before a lot of these names.

For one reason or another, I didn't realise that YouTube could also be the home to long form, analytical videos until about a year ago, and I assumed it was home almost exclusively to shrieking manchildren. That's still not necessarily untrue, but you can find the odd chunk of gold if you wade through the sewage for long enough. Let's Plays - as well as bringing an odd proportion of people of dubious character into the limelight - just never really appealed to me, except that one time I got stuck in Metroid Prime. YouTube was basically for watching movie trailers, old wrestling clips, and Dragon Ball Z Abridged. I've since discovered hbomberguy (videogames and pop culture), Foldable Ideas (films), Every Frame a Painting (films again), and noclip (in-depth interviews with videogame developers), which all make excellent Saturday morning viewing.

I haven't watched AVGN in a long time. Around the time he got his own game and he got a bit mainstream I feel like his videos became really infrequent and I just lost interest. Is it still good?

Yeah he's started doing more of them but they really come in spurts. He had a kid around that time and it slowed down his production, as it should have. He did however make time to do this one:

I used to have moderate interest in some of the YouTube populars years ago, but lately since it's gotten bigger most of them just annoy me.

I'm still a huge fan of Rhett and Link and their Good Mythical Morning show. I watch it now and then when I'm bored.

Jacksfilms I'll watch every now and then. Critikal is a pretty funny guy, as well as Jaboody Dubs. Remi Gaillard I'll check in on too.

Other than that I like to watch Jimmy Kimmel highlights too and the skits they do. Kimmel is one of my favorites, even more so now that all the comments on his videos are from salty Trump fanboys who are saying they hate Kimmel now because all he does is make fun of Trump. I like Jimmy more now.

Other than that though I mostly just use Youtube to listen to music. The channels I did name above are usually only watched as an alternative to Netflix whenever I'm laying in bed.

I like watching a lot of bodybuilding stuff, Animal's channel with guys like Evan Centopani and Frank Mcgrath among others just watching their training and nutrition is intriguing. I'm not anything like that nor will I ever be I still am a fan of it.

I don't know the exact name of the channel but it's something like "Star Wars Theories" that I watch almost every day of this guy discussing why certain things happened or didn't happen that we don't see in the movies or shows. Big fan of that one.

Julian Smith - One of the first big Youtubers. He used to do sketch comedy videos, and they were hilarious. His stuff from the last few years isn't that great though.

I also watch a few let's players, such as StephenPlays, JoshJepson, Chuggaaconroy, and NintendoCapriSun.
