Platforms like YouTube have created opportunities for the sketch comedians of the world. Before, it would have been nearly impossible for anyone just starting out to convince a major television network to launch his script into production.
Today, distribution is no longer a huge issue -- anyone with a camera and creativity can produce potentially viral content, as we've seen time and time again.
That being said, YouTube may seem overwhelming for the people searching for that content. Eight years worth of content are uploaded to YouTube on a daily basis -- how can you possibly find the type of comedy you're looking for?
We've rounded up some of the best comedy channels on YouTube, each known for a different type of humor. Whether you like old school UCB-style sketch comedy, or outlandish, over-the-top humor, there's likely a channel to suit your needs.
