I was browsing around and saw that nobody had made a thread for this.
So this thread is to take a look back at youtube channels you used to watch that you stopped watching for whatever reason. Whether it be you "grew out" of their content, they stopped posting, or any other reason. They can be forgotten gems, lolcows or just channels you enjoyed for a while in the past (even if you are embarrassed to admit it.
To start off, for me one of these channels is Friday Night Cranks they were a team of cousins Jared (the host), Kristen (co-host) and Kristen's brother (I can remember his name, who ran the stream and did alot of behind the scenes stuff). Their channel and weekly livestreams that they did on Stickam (along since defunct streaming service) where they prank called various stores, tech support, customer service and relatives of viewers. Some where hillarious to me at time (and some still now) and others were absolute garbage. They tried branching out by creating Psycho Laughing Chipmunks (Facebook page) (archive) an attempt at making an Alvin and the Chipmunks style music career with cover songs (all the songs have since been lost to time and pulled down from everywhere, though I am sure someone out there has copies) that were speed up that went absolutely no where after making a couple songs. They also some IRL pranks on fans families but that also never went anywhere. Eventually after Kristen and her brother left the channel and Jared trying to continue the show with a dwindling audience it was stopped entirely given up on last year and last I heard Jared is doing some late night talk show thing on Facebook.
My History With them: back 10-11 years ago when I was first really starting to explore the internet and youtube I stumbled across them. Being in my very early teens I thought that they were the funniest thing and tried to watch their livestreams on Fridays and watch every uploaded clip until I eventually stumbled upon the Call of Duty community (back in the early MW2 days) and after a little over a year from when I found them and watching all the time I eventually slowly stopped watching them entirely. I occasionally looked back to see what had happened to them and cringe at my past self for actually watching it.
when I first found them this is a call I thought was so funny at the time. Though I admit I still find the dolphin noises being made in the background pretty funny even now.
Looking back, I get why young me liked them and I also understand why I stopped, alt of their stuff was really repetitive but I enjoyed it and still like looking back on what once was my favorite youtube channel.
