Topic: What do you like to watch on YouTube? (Read 468 times)

I usually watch about bushcraft, respectively, about traveling and cooking in nature.

Fun forum trivia: the Bargain Boys were the unofficial mascot of the WO thread in 2019-2020.


Along the lines of the same style of comedy, I also enjoy anything by Tim Heidecker (On Cinema at the Cinema was really good until they went to the premium subscription model), Flight of the Concords, and Zack Galfinakis, even if he's been pretty mainstream for quite some time.

I like watching science-related broadcasts.

I’m really into watching off-road car videos. I also love survival guides and videos, especially the ones where people show how to live off the grid. Probably, my fav one is Outdoor boys.

Also, as English is not my mother tongue, I practice it this way. So, I prefer watching something informative rather than just memes or complications.

And what exactly are you watching?

These days ? i love watching battle rap in which i found them genius and entertaining .

I can't say that I am, but I did enjoy that video. A 1987 rube cube for 4 hunge? Now that's a bargain!

Yeah, I enjoy this kind of stuff (though, I think you'd have to understand exactly what's being parodied to really appreciate it. I mean, that's a very obvious thing to say, but, I can see a lot of people watching that video and thinking "WTF even is this?").

The thing about this kind of comedy is that it's temptingly compatible with a fairly low-effort, just-having-fun style of content creation that I tend to not enjoy. I find myself more wanting to savor the high-effort, carefully-metered-out stuff. Something special happens when a seriously stupid (in the best sense) idea gets handled in a but-we-need-to-get-this-just-right kind of way (the stuff by The Lonely Island often gets there, IMO: "This is the second best idea that we've ever had!").

The stuff that really makes me smile though is when there's a kind of positive feedback loop between the material and the performer(s), and you just can't imagine anyone else ever being able to do the same job. Stuff like John Cleese as Basil Fawlty, or Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean. The best example of this that I can think of is Peter Sellers playing Inspector Jacques Clouseau...

Those old Pink Panther movies were before my time, so I probably don't appreciate them as deeply as I could, but they still make me really happy in a way that modern stuff just doesn't. The "Pavlova of the parallels" scene is one of my favorites. There are so many excellent scenes to pick from those movies, but one that I remember literally sending coffee through my nose was seeing Sellers (an Englishman) playing a French police inspector (Clouseau) emerging from the fog disguised as a Swedish sailor ("It's only an old salty Swedish sea dog, out there from the salty seas, you know!").

Travel, cars, tourism, food, and a lot of things for development

The Hardcore Hillbilly. LOL. I almost forgot people like this exist... or close to it, anyway.

Are you a fan of Aunty Donna? Seems like it might be something up your alley

I only like to watch short type videos on YouTube.

When I have free time, I like to watch short videos and listen to songs on YouTube. Among short videos, I like action movie scenes the most

"Just over the next hill, and right off the beaten path... you'll find Big Wayne's compound: a secluded mountain-top spot that plays host to the craziest bunch of thrill-seeking hillbillies you ever saw."

Well for me I do like to watch music videos on youtube. And when a new song does come out I can watch that on youtube.

And I watch some help videos to help my nephews win their video games. They are not good at doing that so when they can not advance a level or mission I will go on youtube.

I can’t really specific things I watch on YouTube. I’m thing that’s comes to mind I go there to watch it. But my Favorite channel is that of Mr Beast.

As you watch the series, some of the new trending series that you might like,

The Wire
Peaky Blinders
Arrested Development
Narcos
Dark

These are also much talked about and popular with the audience!

Give me some more stuff to watch on YouTube! I just finished watching Breaking Bad for the 2nd time and am now in Season 3 of Trailer Park Boys, rewatching that for the 3rd time. Whatcha got. I need something new.

Slices of the best moments in soccer

On YouTube, I like listening to music more. I love tracks with a good beat and bass. For a long time I had a problem listening to this kind of music because I didn't have a device that could capture the beauty of this music. But recently I bought myself some noise cancelling headphones https://treblab.com/blogs/news/earbuds-with-ear-hooks with a great sound transmission. It's the perfect choice for people who want to cut themselves off from the world and concentrate on their music. The earmuffs provide a comfortable and secure fit.

All kinds of clips from movies

Some mobile phone and tv reviews, music videos, A-YEON...

I like to listen to music on YouTube and watch some music MVs.

Nothing specific to be honest but I often use it to find out how to do certain DIY home tasks. I’ve figured out how to do a lot of stuff around the house like fixing leaks. I mean, I watch music videos & nature type, animal videos too. What I’ve been using it for mostly the last couple years is home DIY.

Video games

I like to read the very open speeches of some economists, as well as the speeches of psychics.

I always see and listen to Japanese songs

I like to watch funny videos that make me happy. Now watching videos on the Internet has long been a way of entertainment for young people. When I am tired, this kind of funny stuff can always relieve my fatigue.

If you like that, search repairing of damaged computer or check this channel "primitive technology". Those were my oddly habits

International gossip.

Yep, I like these as well... Especially the ones where an idiot driver does something dumb and then immediately gets pulled over by the cops.


This is hilarious and exactly what I was hoping for... Who would have guessed there was a whole genre of carpet cleaning videos on YouTube. Some videos have several million views, too.



Gonna watch one right now. Oh my that's a filthy carpet.

I sometimes always watch the Korean variety show, Running Man. There are many funny and entertaining scenes. When I'm tired, I always see something funny. or sometimes I see random videos on YouTube.

The videos recommended on youtube to me these days are all about carpet washing videos That videos are so satisfying but i can't pass without saying this: It's like they're keeping these carpets in the mud for a day or they record the carpets used by the dirtiest people in the world.

I'm a person who is always busy working, but when I have free time I always watch YouTube, and on YouTube I like to watch old movies like 1980's films and so on. and also I always see funny videos, which make me laugh.

My go to Youtubers are Mr Beast, Mark Rober and PewDiePie.

If you are interested in insane content, go for Mr. Beast.
If you are interested in learning stuff, go for Mark Rober.
If you are interested in general entertainment, go Pewdiepie.

Dude Perfect has great content as well.

Those are just my interests.

Anything "Instant Karma" or "Win Stupid Prizes" 

Looking for suggestions of interesting niches that maybe I haven't discovered yet.

Personally I'm always drawn toward

- humorous gamers (Xpert Thief, graystillplays, NerdCubed)
- scambaiters (Scammer Revolts, Kitboga, Jim Browning)
- car crash compilations
- plane crash breakdowns
- caving & diving gone wrong
- pretty much any kind of historical storytelling that involves mass casualties

but I'm looking to find new stuff to be interested in.

Crypto videos are mostly terrible, and when turning on the 'Tube I'm usually looking for an escape from thinking about crypto stuff.

What are your favorite genres of YouTube videos?
