I'm not sure it's fair to say that someone succeeds Bob Ross when they have less than 5k subscribers. They could have 500k and still be virtually unknown. That's not to nitpick at popularity, but rather to point at how, well... there's a million Beyonces out there who become nothing. Talent alone isnt what made these people great. They came into our homes and touched lives. If 5k is all it takes then I'm Bob Ross too.
edit nevermind TVs still exist im dumn
He's succeeded Bob Ross because he's literally hosting the Joy of Painting. Who cares how many subscribers he's had.
Oh okay! I thought it was just about the YouTube channel. Like someone was advertising a random YouTube channel that used the Joy of Painting aesthetic. I didn't realize PBS was airing this show again! That's amazing.
