I thought it'd be interesting to know what channels you people are into.

I personally watch quite a lot of TotalBiscuit's stuff, mainly the WTF is and Hearthstone series.
Another person I watch (which I know a lot of people here probably don't like) is YogscastSips, cause he's funny as fuck. I haven't watched his stuff since he started doing that shitty prop-hunt thing but whatever.

Mainly though, I'm watching RoosterTeeth and AchievementHunter (channel name is LetsPlay) stuff.

Other than that it's just silly german rap battle tournament stuff and things like Numberphile and that whole network.

sips seems like such a nice guy, and his commentary is always interesting so yeh i watch his stuff a bit. the rest of them can get a bit annoying at times

the only channels i regularly check up on are twobestfriendsplay, ashens and broteampill

i havent really been following thebestfriends nuzlocke run or their yakuza playthrough tho

"He was shown the smallness and tinsel emptiness of the little Earth gods, with their petty, human interests and connections - their hatreds, rages, loves and vanities; their craving for praise and sacrifice and their demands for faiths contrary to reason and nature."


"...it stimulates the part of the brain called "shatners-bassoon", and that's the bit of the brain that deals with...time perception..."

TBFP's Earth Defense Force video was cool. Also, sips is super laid back and just funny. I started to dislike most of the other yogscast nowadays. I used to like them during Tekkit but after that (and obviously SoI which is great) it went to shit.

I like a guy called 'Werster', who does pokemon speedruns. Apart from that don't really watch much.

my current top three are AllShamNoWow, Dunkey, and Notslaya49

ASNW is really sarcastic and likes to make fun of bad video games. he also makes the occasional montage that makes fun of "serious montages"   
dunkey... well im sure a lot of people know who he is through his LoL vids, but i watch more of his other videos. his halo recapped stuff was my favorite.
notslaya has this silly casual charm to his commentary. he does not have much of a fanbase, but i know him personally and hes a nice guy.

i watch a little of sips. hes the only yogscast related thing i still watch after lewis and simon stopped making shadow of israphel.

penguinz0, vinesauce, dunkey

cr1tikal has a beautiful voice and his infomercial spoofs are the fuckin best
dunkey's e3 2013 video was what sold me, and i've been tuning in ever since
vinesauce: came for vinny, stayed for joel
[12:59 AM] elm: yea honestly if you dont want to cum on elmer fudds bald head whats wrong with you
[07:49.46] <+slack> cum erupts from the dick at an alarming rate
[07:49.59] <+slack> it will blast off and slap the wall at like 40 mph

rtil

huskystarcraft - only youtube caster who consistently makes entertaining starcraft content
nonstampcollecter - crudely drawn cartoons about atheism that are really well made. unfortunately he rarely updates
THE BEST GAMERS - no description available
redlettermedia - the guys who made the star wars reviews. but their rss feed updates videos on their site way before youtube

nothing else worth noting, most of the popular channels are complete shit stuffed with clickbait

Flash

I agree with thebestgamers, penguinz0 and vinesauce as fine choices. I wouldn't have included TBG in my list if rtil hadn't mentioned it because they're on quite a hiatus and I'll only mention the active channels I sub to

I also sub to a whole buncha dark souls uploaders, mega64, lowtax (his LP shenanigans with shmorky are often hilarious), Ratboy Genius (why the fuck not?!), and The Onion.

Some of these channels also have a bunch of "associated" channels that I sub to, like with vinesauce.

Here's a few more unique ones -

Funker Tactical - Videos on paramilitary tactics or martial arts (usually Kali) and whatnot. A lot of focus on wisdom / meaning to practice these things.

Flow - Parkour stuff, generally they have pretty high production values and some cool POV stuff.

Bob42jh - Chill beats.

rtil

here's a cool one i forgot about - tskobaya. this guy goes on 'pilgrimages' to real life locations referenced in anime.

here's an example of him visiting the city that was used in reference for Kyoani's Hyouka
【聖地巡礼】氷菓の舞台となった飛騨高山市を訪れてみた【紅葉】 (Hyōka ~takayama)

he'll travel pretty far to find these places. here he went all the way to this isolated village that was the setting for Non Non Biyori
【聖地巡礼】のんのんびより の舞台となった旧小川小学校下里分校を訪れてみた

That seems to be a typically KyoAni thing by the way... I dunno if it's because they usually really faithful in their adaptations of actual places /their pretty nice style or if it's just because of their insane fanbase.
An acquaintance of mine from Japan does similar things. He was at the K-On school and travelled to the place where Elfen Lied was set (hey, that one aint Kyoani). Oh and he showed me some K-On! Movie locations in london too, but I think I already posted those pics at some point.

funny stuff but
after that brony dating sim thing
i dunno man

Idunno... it seems really hard to tell when that guy's actually being... serious.
Might've just been an attempt at something everythingisterribl-ish


Posing channels that I follow would be lame because I got most of them from the videos that rtil posts in the newsfeed...
oh and I follow a total of 5 people
I should kill myself
:3

Going with MillionDollarExtreme. I thought that whole brony dating sim scam was actually really funny though.
