People to Subscribe to on YouTube
1. sxephil
Philip de Franco started off small, much like every other YouTube sensation, but now he's one of the bigger names on the daily Most Viewed lists. If you want to stay up to date with the news that matters to most people between 16 and 25, then the sxephil channel is the channel for you. He covers new in an amusing and satirical way that reminds you that not all American's are idiots; though a lot of them are. He's hosted shows dedicated to films, women, games and most recently; other YouTube videos, so if this Monday to Thursday news show isn't enough for you, then be sure to check those out too!
2. SHAYTARDS
Generally, I hate reality shows. Watching people live their lives in annoying and stupid ways just annoys me, so I have never been a fan. So you would presume that a daily vlog channel following of the lives of a bearded man, his wife, four children and extended family would annoy me equally as much. Except, the Shaytards (as you will end up calling them whether you like it or not) aren't a bunch of vacuous rich people who long to show the public that they aren't arseholes (except they are), instead what we have is a real family. Their lives are eccentric and far from normal, but the core family values behind each upload have amassed a humongous following. Shay (the father) shows me, as a young man, some of the best ways to raise your children, and he does so with a manic laugh and no fear of public rebuttal. You have to watch the regularly to understand why it's so addictive, and ever since the Shaytards graced my desktop monitor I've watched it as my morning show with my breakfast - a perfect and cheerful start to the day and I can tell I'm going to be incredibly depressed the day that Shay decides to hang up his camera.
As a kid, Dragon Ball Z was the show to watch on Cartoon Network. That isn't to say that it wasn't ridiculous, and because of this it is perfect material for parody, and they don't get better than this effort. So far following through to the Frieza saga, the dubbed over parody of DBZ always amuses and I for one am looking forward to following TeamFourStar through to the Buu saga and beyond.
Most people who have been on the internet for more than 5 years will have seen the Charlie the Unicorn videos (search if you haven't), and SecretAgentBob are the group behind it. Incredibly surreal but incredibly funny, the only problem is that these guys don't release media nearly fast enough.
5. collegehumor
Collegehumor are the big wigs of the internet now, and so they have cameos from some real Hollywood actors in their skits. A hell of a lot of media to browse through, and not all of it stays up on YouTube long enough, so you'd better subscribe to their channel if you want to keep up to date.
6. HISHEdotcom
HISHE (How It Should Have Ended) have released a number of good takes on some of the most popular films out there, something that has inspired others to do the same with other forms of media such as books or video-games. If I'm honest, the material has been less inspired of late, but there are quite a few in the back-logs that are worth a watch, though at the expense of probably ruining any film that you hold dear if you are overly sensitive.
7. KassemG
Kassem G has a, well, I guess you can call it a show where he approaches the fine people of California to discuss their thoughts on topics such as sex, drugs, films, etc etc. More often than not these Californians don't manage to present themselves in such a fine light, but Kassem G himself as the host is even more amusing in his ability to confidently create social awkwardness; welcoming it even. Now Kassem can be found in a variety of other YouTube media, most interesting being his one-on-one interviews with pornstars. He's hilarious in a 'oh my gawd I can't believe he just said that' sort of way, and definitely worth a follow as he is amongst the YouTube elite.
8. schmoyoho
I'm pretty sure you can't attribute the schmoyoho channel to the wave of 'autotuning' any weird, embarassing, or even completely ordinary videos to upload to the internet, but they are certainly the best at it. They have no shortage of classics, and if you've seen a funny person on the internet, be it Charlie Sheen or Antoine Dodson, you can bet that schmoyoho have got their own infinitely better and more musical version up, and you don't want to miss it.
9. Machinima
This channel is more for the geeks out there who love videogames. Mostly reviews and fan-videos; it can be hard to find what to actually watch amongst the masses of uploads. I particularly like the take on the normally speechless character from Half-Life (above), and there are definitely other channels to subscribe to. If you're a hardcore fan to a certain type of game, you'll likely find some sort of homage to it here.
10. klaatu42
Okay, this might just be me, but I find this sort of thing hilarious. I don't know if it's just how well the dubbing seems to be, or if I'm just weird enough to find talking animals really funny. And no, I'm not high at the time. If you like the idea of cats and dogs talking, then this is for you...I just realised how crazy that sounds
Sound off any other suggestions!
