For me, it's easy. September, 2012. A YouTuber known as the poparena had done "a loving ripoff of SF Debris" with his Animorphs reviews, and I found him in December 2010, and while he'd led me to the Nostalgia Critic in late summer of 2011, I didn't give in to my curiosity and check out who this "SF Debris" fellow was until then, and I'm glad I did.

Youtube, 2009 or 10.

Don't remember how.

came across a link to his outrageous okana review on the tvtropes page for informed attributes. i don't remember when that was, exactly, but he was still on youtube, and encounter at farpoint was quite recent.

Must have been a long time ago, as that page doesn't have any entries now.

@Slash Gallagher So you're one of his initial fans. Cool.

I used to chat on ConfusedMatthew's Youtube channel and a bit on his forum. He brought up SF Debris quite a bit, and that's how I became to know about him. I remember one person on Confused Matthew's YT channel comments section, AngryMovieGeek about 10 years ago, who was known for ripping off reviewers styles, namely Confused Matthew's own Youtube avatar. I remember checking out his Star Trek V review, and I remember thinking that he distinctly emulated Chuck's delivery in exposition.

Not sure witch review I first saw at this point, but that's the distinctive memory story.

Linkara talked about him in his History Of Power Rangers: In Space videos, I took a look, I liked what I saw. I kept watching.

I'm ashamed to admit that despite seeing the shout-out he got in Linkara's HoPR video I didn't get around to checking him out until he joined Channel Awesome. So that would be October 2014. Watched the first video posted there and was hooked.

Two years after me. You missed a lot of great stuff - at least when it first came out and was fresh. It's still great and always there to enjoy, but I mean when it was new, you know? Not attacking the show, just saying, for the SF Debris content, that was a great time, between 2013 and 2014. For one thing, he finished uploading all the former YouTube videos to the site. Second, well... Romulan Summer and KOTOR.

Must've stumbled across it on Youtube somehow but I can't remember when, or even how.
