I watched all the original content on YouTube's big Netflix competitor - and it's irrelevant for anyone over 13 years old

YouTube Red's pitch is that provides "premium," (relatively) big-budget content from your favorite YouTube stars. For that, you pay $9.99 per month, though you also get access to perks like ad-free YouTube.

YouTube Red technically delivers on this promise, it's just boring and irrelevant for anyone over the age of 13.

If you are the type of person who enjoys the high-quality dramas and comedies coming out of Netflix, HBO, Showtime, Amazon, and so on, you will not like YouTube Red. The only way I could imagine an adult truly falling for YouTube Red is as part of a strategy to bond with his or her kids over goofy videos. For the record, I think that's a completely valid reason to pay $9.99 a month.

The stars are good-natured and fundamentally kind, the type of people that might really help a kid battling with low self-esteem. And they certainly aren't vapid.

If you are an adult, however, these videos are a chore to watch. They are straight-to-DVD camp, where lines like, "Dance is about being on time, so that's what I expect from you," are par for the course.
