Offtopic, but for how interesting, and likely expensive, that series was, I'm surprised by its relatively low view count. That video didn't even break a million! Compare that with, oh, this random 3Blue1Brown video [1] that has 1.5M views.
Unfortunately, I suspect it is proof that YouTube is not the place for high production value documentaries.

- pkaye 4y agoI think their algorithms make it hard to discover this stuff. Another good set of documentaries is the "JPL and the Space Age" series by the NASA JPL channel. Also their Von Karman lectures. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTiv_XWHnOZqFnWQs393RhIMQoeCnwjhV https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTiv_XWHnOZqFnWQs393R... https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTiv_XWHnOZr-0Wz9ObrMlwSpb2e2CpTh https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTiv_XWHnOZr-0Wz9ObrM...
- lupire 4y agoMaybe more people are about about mathematical paradoxes than Antarctica poop?
- thatguy0900 4y agoI wonder what the ad payment rate is to be shown on TV vs YouTube.
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 4y agoIf the algorithm promoted videos like that I’d actually use YouTube. I honestly don’t understand how anyone uses YouTube regularly.
