All the meat, witha little catch-up. These YouTube recappers are masters of the TL;DR universe

Tell me again, quickly

1 @ManofRecaps.

Anyone who can explain an Avengers movie in under 30 minutes is our hero. Their retelling of the Infinity Saga clips is under 24 minutes, but still keeps you hooked. Watch for season recaps of The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Ted Lasso, The Wheel of Time and Squid Game. They also recap the Harry Potter films. (486K subscribers)

2 @TheRecaps.

They squeeze in every detail, so a nine-hour season is still a one-hour recap. They've covered Cobra Kai, Lupin, The Witcher, Ted Lasso and Succession. They've also done episode-by-episode recaps of The Night Agent and Queen Charlotte. Some shows have 60-second quick takes. The narration: To the point. (42.2K subscribers)

3 @emergencyawesome.

Why recap a story backwards, end to beginning? To drop in relevant explanations when needed. Follow the seasonal and episodewise videos on House Of The Dragon, Game Of Thrones, The Boys, The Mandalorian, and the Batman movies. Most are under 10 minutes. The short, snappy and informative commentary is perfect. (4.46M subscribers)
