She's incredible and one of the most decent humans you'd meet.Most watchable? To me, definitely Anika Nilles
Yoyoka. How can you not enjoy watching this video.
well, lots of GREAT stuff here. my all time favorite is probably neal peart. but vinnie coliauta and steve gadd are just fantastic. as a bass player i have always enjoyed watching and listening to anton fig (esp with bonamassa, got to see anton live with him and he-and michael rhodes- were just fantastic) as well as a local drummer i love playing with- joe baldridge. if you are in the la crosse,WI/ northeast Iowa area and he is playing in a bar or fair type venue, go. you’ll have a great time!
Oh yes...and plays the piano.
All three girls are insanely talented and I absolutely LOVE their music. But Pau is the one that my wife refers to as my "girlfriend". LOL
Tony Allen - there's hardly any motion
Mark Craney
Spanky McCurdy
Mike Mitchell - he overplays, but his energy is unstoppable
Ramon Montagner
Erik Smith - total command of Thrust era Mike Clark linear approach. He doesn't get talked about a lot, so I'll add a video.

One of my absolute favorites. A joy to watch, either with Big Biz or Murder City Devils.
I submit that Brian Viglione of Dresden Dolls is hands down one of the most entertaining drummers playing these days. Observe -
Classic Rock is my favorite genre of music, and I have always enjoyed watching Todd Sucherman of Styx. Here he is playing Blue Collar Man. He throws a lot of stuff into his playing that some folks might not normally notice. I think he is one of the greatest rock drummers alive.

I'd go with Billy Cobham and Vinnie Colaiuta ... outstanding drummers who are cool to watch in action
Why? I'm sure some of the songs have been heard in passing (like on a store's radio or something) but most of the examples seem legit.
It's pretty likely Dennis Chambers has never actually listened to Tool for example, or some jazz/fusion drummer has never heard a particular metal or grunge song.
