Chris Chan: A Comprehensive History
Chris-Chan: A Comprehensive History is a webseries created by producer and musician Geno Samuel, which began in February 2018. It is essentially a documentary about Chris's life, similar to Sachumo's. However, while Sachumo's film is an abridged summary of Chris's life for newcomers, Geno's videos go into greater detail, each video being around 30 to 40 minutes long. The series is in chronological order, taking several videos just to cover Chris's life before his internet fame, and Geno has said that he plans to step through the densely packed events of 2009-10 in increments of a few months. The series is still ongoing, and Geno predicts that it will be around 20 episodes long by the time he reaches the present day. He also mentions that when the series will be done, he will continue them if in case another event happens in Chris's life.
Copyright strikes
Sadly, on 13 June of that year, his GenoSamuel2 channel received three consecutive community guideline strikes, and as a result was terminated. The reason for the termination was because his content was considered a form of harassment and bullying, which is completely untrue. Geno confirmed that he did send an appeal form, but YouTube never gave him his channel back. He would later create a new backup channel, and fans have gone and reuploaded all of the episodes made prior to the striking.
It is speculated that many white knights flagged the videos, which eventually got YouTube's attention and caused the channel to be taken down. Some have even asked Chris himself if he had anything to do with it; he denied any responsibility and gave Geno his hopes for his channel to be restored.
Hiatus and return
A week later, Geno revealed on the backup channel he would be taking a long break from the videos, stating that he was getting tired of always having to have Chris in his mind when making the documentary. He said that he will continue working on them sometime near the end of the year.
On 3 January 2019, he announced on his Twitter in the form of a teaser poster that the series will be coming back on 24 February 2019, which also happens to be Chris's birthday. The new series contains updated audio, some corrected info and some modifications to prevent another takedown.
