Quinton Kyle Hoover (born 1996),[1] known online primarily as Quinton Reviews, is an American YouTuber. Hoover produces video essays on various topics, usually pop culture. His best-known work includes his coverage of the Garfield franchise and a series of hours-long videos covering iCarly and its spin-offs.
YouTube career[edit]
From 2019 to 2020, Hoover published two videos detailing his discovery of archived copies of Jim Davis's past work Jon, a precursor to Garfield. Hoover traveled to Muncie, Indiana, in order to get scans of the historical strips, and published a video about his trip on the channel.[2][3]
In June 2021, Hoover published a five-hour video called "iBinged iCarly", with a recap of the series with his own commentary.[4][5] He also published a video with a discussion on the career and works of YouTuber Lucas Cruikshank, who starred in an episode of iCarly,[3][6] and a series of further videos on iCarly and its related series Victorious[4][5] and Sam & Cat.
In April 2024, as a late April Fools' joke, he posted a 38-hour recap video of The Beverly Hillbillies hosted by his father, Russ, who had experienced a serious car crash prior to recording the video. A week after it was published, CBS issued a copyright claim on the video, and on April 11, Paramount Global Content Protection sent an email to Hoover disagreeing that the video qualified as fair use, leading Hoover to take the video down to avoid risking a court battle.[7]
