Just go straight to Blizzard's overview.
Honestly, it's the best place to start. They got their cool little videos, and if you go to race overview they have detailed stuff about every single unit. Strengths, weaknesses, counters, etc. I'm sure people at the highest levels will point out flaws in what they have, but to learn the game it's a great place to go. Maybe if you want a bit more in depth as to the "why," check out the Liquipedia. When I started watching stuff I pretty much had that open at all times.
Day9's good and all, but he'll spend a good 20% of the time just wasting your time trying to be funny. I hate to say it since I used to watch him. But last time I tried I thought... get to the point. Plus he's got around 450 videos at this point so it'll take some time to find what you're looking for.
I guess you can't go wrong with the Artosis Hour for seeing the pros, although you said you aren't that interested in strategies right now. Only a handful of episodes so far but Artosis is one hell of an analytical caster. Maybe you'll pick something up.
This was the first introductory episode, so the game probably starts around 15 minutes in.
