@mariojacobs​ Was this content specifically produced for YouTube or just something produced outside of the platform then posted later to its related channel? I'll accept the former but not the latter.

@Tsarstepan​ I don't know, it is a webseries that I watched on Youtube. Excellent by the way, the best star trek related sequel since the original series in my opinion. Entirely made by fans of the original. Their captain Kirk is perfect and he is not even an actor, he is a musician... 

Added to the list. Looks like the fan produced series was created with the intent to be added to YouTube (according to its wiki).

I'd never heard of Becky Smethurst, and I'm surprised that the YouTube algorithm has never recommended any of her work, but maybe that's because I rarely look deeply into astrophysics and cosmology, even though I'm often interested in coronal mass ejections (solar flares). heliospheres, cosmic rays, single event upsets, planetary magnetic fields and the James Van Allen radiation belts, not so much gravitational singularities.

I do somewhat track Derek Muller (Veritasium), Mehdi Sadaghdar (ElectroBOOM), Michael Stevens (Vsauce), Brady Haran (Numberphile), Jordan Harrod, Kyle Hill (Because Science), Zach Star, Presh Talwalkar (Mind Your Decisions), Toby Hendy (Tibees), Burkard Polster (Mathologer), Kevin Lieber (Vsauce2), Jake Roper (Vsauce3), Nigel Braun (NileRed), Alec Watson (Technology Connections) and Rob Braxman Tech, hence my surprise. I named several mathematics-oriented folks, though. So, that's bound to lead to subject matter separate from niche areas of natural science.

@dan_dassow​ Excellent choice. I like many of her science videos. I'll definitely add her very accessible channel to the list.

@jeorj_euler​ I love the Nilered (and Nileblue) channel. He doesn't seem to be producing very much new content these past couple of months.

I subscribe to Numberphile (https://www.youtube.com/@Numberphile) and I'm familiar with a few of the others. Your list of YouTube channels sound intriguing.

You may find these YouTube channels to which I subscribe interesting:

Anton Petrov (https://www.youtube.com/@whatdamath)
Veritasium (https://www.youtube.com/@veritasium)
PBS Space Time (https://www.youtube.com/@pbsspacetime)
NOVA PBS Official (https://www.youtube.com/@novapbs)
EXOPLANET (https://www.youtube.com/@EXOPLANETnews)
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) (https://www.youtube.com/@NASAWebbTelescope)
Physics Girl (https://www.youtube.com/@physicsgirl)
FoundationINTERVIEWS (https://www.youtube.com/@FoundationINTERVIEWS)

Wow. Thank you, Dan.

I did already mention Veritasium, by the way, as everybody might note. I do sometimes come across various Public Broadcast Station programs on YouTube. NOVA is a show that goes way back, of course. Neil DeGrasse Tyson has hosted various PBS shows about natural sciences. Quite a few PBS shows have YouTube channels to correspond with them. I've actually looked searched for Ask This Old House, Secrets of the Dead, Steven Raichlen and Rick Bayless. As to be expected from what I indicated earlier in this thread, I seek out a lot of political and historical material, so invariably I've come across Frontline, which is another one I had already been watching before YouTube rose to prominence. One episode, Generation Like, actually features several YouTubers, but some of them have sadly fallen in obscurity.

(Not a big deal, but I forgot to mention Tom Scott in when rambling off the names of those scientists, mathematicians, engineers, chemists and technologists.)

@TheOldJalapenoman​ ,

This is a YouTube channel I suspect you would like:

https://www.youtube.com/@soul-jazz-popmusic2532

Perry Como, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole 🎶 Greatest Hits Oldies But Goodies - old best songs

@dan_dassow​ While I do enjoy Sinatra and the others you name, my favorite musicians of all time are actually:

Karen Carpenter (best female vocalist of all time)

John Denver (best concert I ever attended)

Neil Diamond

The Beatles

The Eagles

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The most recent concerts I attended were for Celtic Woman and Gordon Lightfoot.  I enjoy some of the older country (Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, The Statler Brothers), some of the older Gospel, some instruments (Ashokan Farewell or Andre Rieu, for example), Early rock, folk rock, big band, and a lot of different styles of MUSIC (and I do not count (c)rap, hip hop, grunge, or heavy metal as music).

@jeorj_euler​ I adore Cecil Trachenburg and Good Bad Flicks. Let me know if you want this or another to be added to the list.

I recently found out that IMDb has coverage of Mark Bishop's Minty Comedic Arts: UCQNm-orYZ_Gv6rp2iTUoS7g.

@jeorj_euler​ There's a problem with the channel link you provided. His channels link is https://www.youtube.com/@MintyComedicArts

I've added that to the list. Can you also please confirm your other choice?

(There was a letter missing from the end of the  hyperlink, and that is what messed it up. I had deleted the entire post and created a whole separate one with the correct information.)

Yes, HISHE is pretty darn hilarious. I can't quite explain it, but the ones dealing with Star Wars movies had me cracking up.

@jeorj_euler​ My favorite one remains Infinity War, which is also the first one I saw, but I have had fun with many of them.

@Pencho15​ Added the HISHE to the list. I will likely allow for two nominations per user.

Yes, Toby Hendy is very nice to look at, and she also makes people think. I need to revisit the video about manually calculating square roots using a method to analogous to long division.

I'm also addicted to these "First Time Watching" videos but I wouldn't know which one to pick...

That's great stuff, but I think the idea behind this poll suggestion is geared more toward YouTube channels that host content that originated from the respective creators (persons, families or companies) of the channels.

...particularly content created for or debuting on the YouTube platform.

@ElMaruecan82​ Sorry. But I'm looking for channels that have original content and your first two suggestions don't really qualify. And weirdly, First Time Watching should fit that bill.

@BonaFideBOSS​ Limited to two per IMDb member. Both initial channels added to the list.

Maybe the post is simply hard to find rather than deleted? I've seen this happen dozens of times throughout the past several years. Something about the way that the forum loads threads with new posts in them, at moments seemingly when the site is receiving a lot of traffic.

@jeorj_euler​ Whatever happened. The post is now visible.

@jaf_ismael​ Your option has been added to the list.

@Breumaster​ 

Sorry, just saw - no poltics. Ok. But got another 2 for sure:

Semper Video

(tells professional things about tech in the internet and computer, German language)

and ...

Kino Check

Lino Check provides trailers and Top 10 lists for interested people.

@Breumaster​ 

One of them I loved was the channel FilmKritikTV from Franc Tausch.

Sadly Franc died in Los Angeles in August 12, 2012. He was THE BEST!

I tried hard to gather information on what happened. Seems like he had a bad

lung disease. But that's no safe information.

Ruhe in Frieden Franc, Du warst der Beste!

If it should be mostly reviews, I'd prefer Cinema Strikes Back.

That and Semper Video.

@Dibyayan_Chakravorty​ Sorry DC. It looks like there's way too much political content on that channel. That's a disqualifying content for this one.

Alas, one complication could be that some people's only favorite channels (that also have their original content documented on IMDb) are vaguely anything but divorced from political matters.
