At the end of 2025 I did some analysis of how Jimmy’s social accounts were performing and all links, to previous reports, are at the bottom of these new posts.
Earlier statistics related posts had a lot of caveats and explanations on them that were getting repetitious. To improve efficiency I’ve moved all of that text to a Reporting page (hidden from search engines) so that I can link to it from within posts.
If you want to know more about why some comedians are not included in reports, how I gather the data, which I stated with 100+ names and am now down to only 29…then see here.
BTW – apologies to Andrew Schulz. I keep spelling it Shultz and don’t want to redo all of the spreadsheet images (I knew someone of that name, years ago, and have a mental block). Will change for next time.
YouTube – Most Subscribers
This one is fun as Jimmy now has 5 YouTube channels. As they are all related to his stand-up or TV content, I’m quoting the one total. I’ve not done this with anyone else as I can’t think of anyone running a secondary channel.
Some comics have podcasts within their channel but that can muddy the water as the podcast may not be remotely linked to comedy. I’m aware that Jimmy’s channels include his TV stuff – but those are comedy shows and he’s often a writer on them.
This first image (for Jimmy’s 5 channels) shows how many videos have been uploaded, how many subscribers and how many views (per channel).
In row 18 I think the main channel Views growth of 199,904,524 (in 4 months) is pretty good going.
Overall, Views are 1,143,953,506 which, compared to someone like Mr Beast, is fairly low – but he’s the most watched British Comedian.
I assembled this data 2 days ago and his main channel is already up another 3.2m views (see here).
Back in November I’d had a look around YouTube (plus some in Linear TV viewing) and I’d estimated more than 4.225 billion (here) and that number will have risen substantially since then.

Sorting the comparison spreadsheet list by column O we only have 25 names again as comics such as Kevin Hart don’t utilise YouTube.
The Zero (cell 8p) for Andrew Schulz was a long-term stuck counter in December. The n/a for Nate Bargatze (25q) is due to data absence in October.
The other negative numbers are accurate. Or as accurate as these free counters can be.

Below is the view of “most growth” in 4 months.

YouTube – How Many Videos?
Not much to add to this other than Jimmy gives away a LOT of content! 1,125 videos in 4 months is a mind boggling number of viewing hours…hard to keep up with his output.

YouTube Views
As alluded to in the first image, above, Jimmy’s accounts give him the highest total for a Brit comedian and he’s even crept past Matt Rife.

And sorting by most growth (in 4 months) Jimmy’s accounts are way above other Brit artists. Ricky Gervais (not shown) is down in 22nd place with growth of 2,670,863 views.
