The year is 2010. "Just The Way You Are", "Your Love Is My Drug", "Like A G6", and "California Gurls" are all chart-toppers. In timeless Youtube fashion, it's an average day where you start off watching videos about puppies or your favorite band's latest music video and end up falling down the rabbit hole.

That, or you've just watched Shane Dawson's newest video with his eccentric characters.

I know that myself and tons of my friends were Shane Dawson fans in the years of late middle school/early high school. His videos were a source of laughter for anybody and everybody.

Flash forward to 2018 and he's making TV-worthy content like "The Secret World of Jeffree Star".

Admittedly, I stopped watching Shane's videos for a couple of years. I can't exactly pinpoint why, but it happened. One random day, I came across a video where he was trying a bunch of crazy foods and ended up getting hooked on him again. His conspiracy theory videos are phenomenal, but the content that Shane has been putting out for the past couple of months has been on another level of fantastic.

Along with his conspiracy and haunted location videos, he has others that range from reconnecting with his father to bringing someone who hated him into his home. These videos were the start of another area of entertainment from Dawson and they only got better.

He took it to another level when he did a collaboration with Grav3yardgirl (one of my personal all-time favorites #swampfamily) on helping her revamp her channel. After that, Shane started a series of what were arguably his best videos: "The Truth About Tanacon".

His content has been dubbed as TV-quality content by many people. Shane Dawson has gone from making short films with crazy, bold, brash, and hilarious characters to making content that keeps you on the edge of your seat, informs you, makes you laugh, and warms your heart. He's a Youtuber that genuinely cares about everyone he's had in his videos and his passion for what he's doing is as obvious as it gets.

I mean, you know you're doing something right when Kathy Griffin tells you that you're doing journalism, right?
