I started out watching the Sci-fi Dig lady, but her TOS reactions became more sporadic and my attention started to drift. She wasn’t watching the series, but basically a sampling of episodes. I gave up.

When you get right down to it, very few youtube reactors have any insights worth hearing. They're just doing it for easy ad dollars, with no need to create content.
The only reactors I ever liked were a professional voice coach marveling at Karen Carpenter, and that only briefly. And also a female due called Popcorn in Bed who were great on their first few James Bond movies.
At the other end of the spectrum, some youtubers give you tremendous content that they work very hard to write and produce. Technology Connections and the Professor of Rock, to name just two.

That's probably a consequence of the format of reaction videos. It's pretty boring to just watch someone passively watching something, so I'm sure they feel an obligation to say something frequently, whether or not they have anything interesting or substantial to say.
