The Star Wars fanbase may be one of the largest in the world. This, combined with the endless number of YouTube videos about anything relating to Star Wars can make it hard to find a channel to follow that will give fans what they are looking for.
Narrowing it down to the best is a good start. For those in the fandom looking for the Star Wars channel for them, be it about games, lore, or reviews, these are the best out there and perfect for any level of fan.
Nerdist
The YouTube channel Nerdist has content that fully fits its title: anything and everything a nerd could want. As far as Star Wars content goes, they have a decent amount considering the vast amount of other content they have concerning other properties.
Among their many playlists, they have one dedicated to The Mandalorian and Rogue One, to name just a few. They also have a whole playlist just called "May the 4th Be With You," which is a compilation of all of their Star Wars-related videos. Their content ranges from short informative videos to funny spin-offs that any fan could get behind.
Star Wars Culture
Hosted by Hannah Raeside and Jordan Chaffer, Star Wars Culture is a Star Wars podcast created by fans, for fans. In a laid-back fashion, they discuss their favorite and least favorite moments, characters, and creatures.
The two also talk about characters in the Star Wars franchise that they loved in the shows and want to see in the movies/shows that Disney is working on. They have also been able to get some guests on the show to talk about topics ranging from cosplay to books. Their podcast has a very friendly nature to it, which makes it seem welcoming to fans of any level.
Galactic Empire Explained Star Wars
While there are tons of videos on all the Jedis, the varying worlds, and of course lightsabers, the Galactic Empire is a topic that doesn't get nearly as much coverage. Gaining knowledge on the members, the ships, and the overall story of the Galactic Empire is made easy with the YouTube channel, Galactic Empire Explained Star Wars.
From the comics to the newest trending shows, this channel makes sure that everyone can be in the know of which officer did what and why they did it.
The Stupendous Wave
There are a lot of things that happen in the Star Wars universe that can be confusing to newcomers or even fans. The Stupendous Wave is the perfect YouTube channel to check out to get a better understanding of things. Their videos are on the shorter side, with most of them being around five minutes, and they get straight to the point.
On top of doing reviews where they include their own opinion on things, they also have some announcement videos from when new shows, movies, and games drop some new information on what they will release and when. They have a sister channel called The Marvelous Wave that is about all things related to Marvel, too.
Leia's Lair
For fans looking for some more interactive and funny Star Wars-related content, Leia's Lair is the channel to follow. While this channel has the usual live streams of games and episode reviews, there are also many video quizzes where fans can find out which color lightsaber they would have or which character they would be.
Leia's Lair often will break down episodes of shows, like Lego Star Wars: Terrifying Tales, and show the best clips from each. More recently, though, they have taken many of the scenes from The Book of Boba Fett that Grogu is in and subtitle what he might be saying. This is the type of content that die-hard Grogu fans have been asking for.
The Lore Master
Between all the movies, comics, and shows that come out of the Star Wars franchise, there is a lot of lore to keep track of. The Lore Master has all of this and more. In a professional, mini-docu-series-like style, their videos help explain facts, answer questions, and confirm suspicions fans may have had about the Star Wars universe.
While some of their older content may seem to have been made just to educate fans, their newer content seems to follow topics of what's new and trending.
Star Wars Theory
Star Wars Theory has all the usual content of book reviews, theories explained, and more. With their videos ranging from about five to 15 minutes, it makes it easy for fans to learn what they may need to know before they watch the next episode, or read a new comic.
On top of all that, Star Wars Theory also has fan-fiction videos that are really well made. From their logo, which is Anakin Skywalker as Darth Vader without his mask on, it is safe to say that they are big Vader fans, which makes sense as to why their fan-fiction movie is primarily focused on Vader.
Star Wars
The official Star Wars YouTube account can always be counted on to have the most up-to-date and accurate information on any and all things Star Wars. They will always have the newest trailers and announcements for any new content coming from the franchise, like which characters might show up in Rogue Squadron.
They have a wide variety of mini-shows that cover all different topics. From their book club show to "This Week! In Star Wars," the channel can provide any level of fan with whatever it is they may be looking for, pertaining to official announcements from the franchise.
Star Wars HQ
Star Wars video games have been a fairly big part of the franchise as it has grown over the years and the YouTube channel, Star Wars HQ, is the place to go for all things related to Star Wars video games. They cover everything from new gameplay features to new trailers for games.
Star Wars HQ releases videos on games from the Star Wars Lego games to Star Wars Battlefront and all things in between. They have branched out a little bit and are starting to do reviews on other games, as well as on episodes of Star Wars shows.
Sarlacc Digest: A Star Wars Podcast
The Sarlacc Digest is a podcast run by six guys: Marco, Kris, Scott, Ernie, Joey, and Mike, who met while waiting in line to see The Force Awakens. These guys talk about everything related to Star Wars. From fan theories to episode reviews and merchandise unboxing, these six seem to have the best time talking about anything and everything related to the topic.
With reference to the Sarlacc from Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, their channel name is quite clever. Seeing as the Sarlacc typically ate whatever fell into its mouth, this can translate to this group of guys digesting everything that has to do with the franchise.
