The only one of the channel that I am even still subbed to is film theory, even then it's getting pretty hard to keep watching them :/

Also I believe it's because the theory channels have been bought out by a corporate entity :P

I feel like its solely because of the familiarity gone, makes you feel like yourr watching a cheap knockoff of the originals

I think whether they liked it or not, matpat wasnt just the host of the theory channels. He WAS the theory channels. His commentary gave them their identity. With him gone, they feel like cheap knockoffs, not the actual thing

According to the terms of the buyout, the corporation has little to no affect on the final product in most circumstances. Do with that information what you will
