Blog : Favorite YouTube Videos (Volume 12)

This volume of my Favorite YouTube Videos is a mix of interesting vlogs and childhood memories.

  • The first video is another vlogbrothers video (and there's going to be a lot of these for the next little bit). John's discussion of Healthcare reform is interesting on its own, but I really like the visuals added by ThoughtBubble.
  • The second video is the theme to Today's Special, which I think was my favorite television show as a kid. I don't have much to say about the intro, but it makes me happy.
  • The third video is from another favorite show from my childhood, Under the Umbrella Tree. It's interesting in that the show's producer (Noreen Young) managed to get some of the rights back for the show and begin selling the dvds (sadly the shop is now closed) and posting the episdoes to YouTube. Unfortunately I don't remember why I've favorited the second part (rather than the first), but all of the episodes are still pretty cool, even when viewed as an adult.
  • The fourth video is another from the Hank's songs that were at a few times a weekly (or bi-weekly) feature of the vlogbrothers. This one was originally released for father's day (as the topic might make you guess). I think (although I'm not sure), that the animation was done by Hank's business partner Alan Distro.
  •  The fifth video is one of my all time favorite vlogbrothers' videos in which Hank describes to us the 13 movie canon arm removals of Star Wars.
