I felt the same way at first, but he's kinda growing on me. (quick google search says his name is Michael Aranda)

Scishow being under the same umbrella as the Vlogbrothers, one inevitably ends up comparing him to John and Hank Green. And, well, he doesn't.

BUT, as awesome as those guys are, it took some time for them to develop their "instant gravitas" ability, and they only have so much time to devote to Vlogbrothers and associated stuff. So, I'm kinda willing to give this guy the benefit of the doubt and think he can develop into another very good presenter.

Maybe.
