Our Favorites

The playlists available from this page provide a good starting point for those new to BestArts. The first group of playlists reflects our preferences while the second group of playlists reflects our viewers' preferences.

Viewer Favorites

Of course, our opinion is less important than that of our viewers. We decided the most accurate measure of viewer preference is based on the number of times a video is designated as a "Favorite." For the pages below, here are the current definitions:

  • Tier 1 - 300+ favorites from viewers
  • Tier 2 - 150+ favorites from viewers
  • Tier 3 - 100+ favorites from viewers

We hope you'll favorite the BestArts videos that mean the most to you.
