Nuns with Guns posted:CBS as a network has always trended towards catering to an older audience afaik. In the 60s up through the Rural Purge that meant lots of folksy country-themed shows. Nowadays it's a lot of dry cop dramas and really broad sitcoms it can milk for years and years. If you would have asked me which network would have had the highest number of viewers between ABC NBC and CBS, I would have figured CBS would be dead last. turns out it's the exact opposite. CBS is so far ahead of the competition that it's insane. Practically every show that they have on there is a ratings monster. And I think a major reason for that is because they tend to skew older compared to the other networks.

Basically all episodes of Kitchen Nightmares can be found on YouTube. Never watched the show when it aired, but it turns out to be great white noise when you're doing monotonous tasks

It is a good troll, yes. Though it makes me a bit sad, because if I weren't so lazy, this fuckery would finally motivate me to make a channel called Quin-Ton Shorties, and then I'd download all of Quinton's videos, rip them apart into roughly 30-minutes sized bites and re-upload them after editing. Both to make them more watchable, and to counter-troll Quinton.

I have no intention of ever watching Quinton's videos but I hope they learn to edit better and be more concise because it's important for people to grow and develop especially in terms of their hobbies.

As I understand it, and as you might guess, it came down to advertising. There were a lot of shows set in rural settings because they got a lot of views. However, as advertising analytic technology advanced, the networks discovered that these shows were more popular among older people, while younger people preferred shows set in an urban setting. Such shows may have gotten less viewership overall, but they would have been seen by a higher proportion of the youth demographic, which of course is the holy grail for advertisers. Thus they could sell ad spots for more money despite getting fewer viewers. This period in television history is called the “rural purge” if anyone wants to look up more about it.

His older videos already were edited better and more concise lol. But the youtube algorithm rewarded him for making a stupidly long video once so he decided that's just his gimmick now

SpiritOfLenin posted:i will never watch more than the first five minutes of this video, but it was very funny that quinton's dad is pretty much just quinton but older. Same; I think I got what I needed to see just by seeing that Quinton's dad is just him. I don't think making videos that long is actually interesting; comparing the time devoted to videos to anything else is kind of bad, but for this case in particular, I do think that I'd rather read a book or play a short videogame than devote hours to something I don't care at all

I actually think it's cause he was doing it himself. It's a lot easier to cut down 45 minutes of footage to 20 than 6 hours to 2.

The CNN docu series about culture through the decades has one on TV, and talks about how the show thirtysomething was one of those first data driven successes, as it was determined that while low in ratings it was very popular with that critical 25-35 financially well off audience who spend way more then all other demographics.

Noah Gervais is the closest I can think of beyond the ones you've described. He definitely does multiple takes and the background footage is cut together from multiple gameplay sessions but it feels like a guy just reading an essay to you.

In multiple videos, especially older ones, you can hear when he pauses and moves on to the next page, sometimes you can even hear the mouse clicks.

Clerical Terrors posted:In multiple videos, especially older ones, you can hear when he pauses and moves on to the next page, sometimes you can even hear the mouse clicks. Yeah, but he's also said (I think in a channel update video or maybe on twitter) that in addition to that he IS doing multiple takes and what we gt in the videos is the best ones even if there ARE clicks and pauses in there.

One of the most insanely detailed and ridiculous tech projects I have seen. Man builds own Macintosh Classic using an old Wyse terminal, screen from a supermarket checkout and hodge podge of custom PCBs and old usb hubs. All in a perfect recreation case which he lovingly 3D prints. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N9oz4Ylzm4
