How to read this channel

RICHARD TOMSON is a 16,700-subscriber channel (about 146 months old) working mainly in Sci-Fi / Time Travel, publishing first in English / Global. The radar tracks 1 of its uploads. Its strongest signal (breakout score 4.5× the dataset median) reaches 89.0× the channel's subscriber count and has averaged 9,171 views a day since it was published 162 days ago, on “THE SPACE APART - Full Scifi Movie” (1,485,636 views). That is a lifetime average, not a current rate — one capture per video means this dataset cannot distinguish a video that is still climbing from one that already peaked. The API reports the audio track language as en.

There is one statistic this page deliberately does not print: a per-channel “share of uploads that reached 3×”. Every video on this site cleared that floor before it could be tracked at all, so the figure would read 100% for every channel and would distinguish nothing. What is left instead: this channel has a single tracked upload so far, and it has pulled 1,485,636 views. Treat a one-video channel as a topic signal, not as proof of a repeatable format. The hook patterns the tracker infers from its titles are statement / cold open (1), and the production choices that repeat are no-face format (no host on camera), episodic series / numbered parts, single-sitting long-form (30min+).

What to copy and what to skip: copy the packaging pattern (title structure, the promise made in the first seconds, the episode length that keeps working) and skip the parts that only this channel can do — an existing subscriber base, cross-posting, or a back catalogue that feeds recommendations. Then compare this channel against the others on its category board: same niche, different market, different length. That comparison is where the transferable part usually hides.
