There is a ton of professionally produced content on YouTube. Mr. Beast for example spends between $1 and $1.5 million to produce each video. By comparison your average TV documentary costs only $500k for an hour of content.
NileRed, a popular chemistry focused channel, quoted one of their videos as taking 4 months of production time for their multi-person staff.
I think you might not like the artistic style of YouTube, but in terms of production value I'd wager more is being spent on YouTube than broadcast TV at this point (remember that the vast majority of channels make no money but people sink money into them anyway).
- permo-w 3y agoso you've cherrypicked two examples, one of which-Mr Beast-is basically just a tv variety gameshow but better presented for a younger audience. the sums of money may well be high but that doesn't change the fact that it's not pulling in viewers jumping ship from HBO/BBC/Netflix/AP dramas. NileRed and Kurzgesagt are the same in a different way >I'd wager more is being spent on YouTube than broadcast TV at this point you'd lose that wager
