Shane Dawson has quickly transformed himself from quirky Youtuber to documentarian, as seen in his drastic shift from splashy challenge videos to feature-length series. As he's about to release his latest doc, "The Beautiful World of Jeffree Star", I took it upon myself to definitively rank each of Shane's series. Because why not? Here it is, ranked from worst to best.
6. The Three-Part Grav3yardGirl Series
Many don't know this, but Shane's dip into the waters of documentary-making actually started with a three-part series on Youtuber grav3yardgirl, who was popular at one point but whose subscriber count drastically dipped. Shane made a series about trying to revamp grav3yardgirl's channel. Although funny at times, this series still has remnants of Shane's older, more cheesy videos, and fails to hit the mark.
5. The Return of Eugenia Cooney
Although I really enjoyed the message of this short documentary (an hour long--relatively short compared to other series' Shane has made), in comparison to every other doc it falls flat.
4. The Secret World of Jeffree Star
This was so interesting to watch purely to see how rich Jeffree Star really is. Other than that, Jeffree's rise to stardom and his controversy are handled well.
3. Investigating Conspiracies With Shane Dawson
A conspiracy video series complete with Chuck-E-Cheese pizza theories, this doc was wild from start to finish.
2. The Mind of Jake Paul
SO many people were secretly interested in Jake Paul behind the scenes. This doc really dug deep into Jake's family life and scandal, so much so that at the end of the series you could see where Jake gets some of his erratic behavior.
1. Tanacon
Ah yes, a classic. The Tanacon series truly started it all, and although many criticized Shane for being too forgiving towards Tana, watching Tanacon come crashing down and throughly analyzed was quite entertaining.
