Cut Dat Commentary Is The Newest Addition To Weird YouTube

Weird YouTube is by no means a new phenomenon, but what keeps many of the most creative channels relatively unknown is that they're either so strange as to cause discomfort in most viewers — like How To Basic (probably the most famous of the bunch), CompansArchives and Alan Tutorial — or they're so adept at lampooning a specific genre — Henry's Kitchen, Miranda Sings, or How To Draw (With Detail) for example — that it's not immediately obvious ​to most viewers that they're parodies. (FYI, all of the above channels are worth your time, though your mileage may vary and some are NSFW.)

But once in a while something like Cut Dat Commentary comes along with a concept both bizarre and simple. After a few seconds any layman will realize by subscribing they'll be subjected twice weekly to a whispery narrator commentate on a man trying to cut various foods with a spoon, and yet it's grounded close enough to reality that you could probably send this to your mom. That's all there is, and the gag works.
