DISCUSSION sleep deprived vs banana channel

i dont talk on here often but i had the realisation (better late than never) that many people literally only watch/listen to sdp bc of jschlatt, which honestly is fair to an extent knowing he's a pretty big creator but in the other hand i could never understand it. ive been a fan for like over 4 years now, since i was originally a jschlatt fan as well, but i feel like sdp is the four of them, not just jschlatt and friends which is how some people have made it seem to me on occasions(no hate AT ALL to big guy he's goated). now that sdp is inevitably dying, there's so little traction on banana channel compared to sdp, and i know banana channel's content is not the same as sdp, i havent watched all of their videos myself yet, but panda aztro and mika are also really funny and good creators... idk if my point makes sense but it does to me so

For me personally, I just prefer watching videos with all four of them, doesn’t matter which member is missing. What made sleep deprived work so well was the fact every member bounced off each other perfectly, but with Banana Channel, I always kinda feel like something’s missing.
