i love how anthony is still an emo king and ian just evolved into a 1970's uncle
That shirt is insane but I like it
Pink shirts, khaki shorts, he’s just missing the gold chain and chewing gum to fully become golfing Florida bro
A worthy evolution 🙏🏻
CRYING why is this so accurate
@@ABCDyeahyeahyeah if you look closely, he does in fact already have the gold chain. That’s 1/3 closer to becoming a golfing Florida bro
This is honestly a great story. Two best friends torn apart by corporate greed, beat the system and reunited. Beautiful
Yup!
Werent they the corporate greed?
@@lampad4549 they're hitler of corporate greed!!
corporate greed, abstract noun@@lampad4549
@@lampad4549no they were both victims of corporate greed bc they were too trusting and naive - Anthony’s video with Ian on his main channel talks about it in depth. It’s pretty interesting
The separate aesthetics are giving Ian as a fully-committed uncle who's besties with his brother-in-laws, and Anthony as the youngest uncle who's still in college, isn't fully invested in family get-togethers but is pretty sweet with his siblings' kids
oddly specific perfect description
Your aesthetic is giving off pathetic vibes, with a hint of self absorbed narcissism
So,sorta like uncle Jessie and uncle Joey on full house?
@@Attackontrashcan omg that's so accurate!!
i love the weird synchronicity of rhett and link having distinct hair and ian and Anthony also having distinct hair. I'm sure the reaction to both was something they could relate to.
Ian and Anthony used to have really distinct hair back in the day, but in such a different way
Bowl cut vs Emo hair
The fact that these two look like complete opposites makes this so much better
yes
They got that Yin and Yang bro
I was gonna say this xD
As they say, opposites attract
american d&p
Major W for the teacher that put these two together in a class that one time. You changed internet history forever.
Actually tho
Imagine the teacher watching SMOSH today. She should be proud of it
7:12 poor Ian, I don’t think he was counting on smosh fans ageing and developing new attractions. I bet there’s a resurgence of smosh fanfic since Anthropology came back
I swear I meant Anthony, but his new name is now anthropology palaeontology due to circumstances
this is the best comment istg
Bro I'm literally dying of laughter my grandma looking at me like I'm crazy! 💀💀
Ao3 is eating up their crazy reunion storyline ngl 💀
“If Mythical didn’t get it, I wouldn’t of stayed” To think that the events that happened could’ve led to either having Anthony back or Ian also leaving Smosh is crazy. We truly got the best outcome, thank you Mythical Entertainment!
*wouldn't HAVE stayed
I never thought I'd see Ian and Anthony do a WIRED autocomoplete interview lol.
Yeah
Ian has done one before with Courtney and mari
Frfr wtff
We got the good ending
Complete
Wired is so smart for realising that they can also get youtubers on here instead of just celebrities and it will still get a lot of views, because the youtubers actually know how to be entertaining in these
It's almost like people who like watching RUclips... like people on RUclips 😅
I imagine they're gonna be inviting a lot more youtubers on, thanks to the strike.
They had the try guys on a while back
so true
These days I think the line between youtubers and 'real' celebrities is, if not blurred, not particularly important
Fun fact I lived next to the Smosh house and remember people walking around the house. I didn’t know what Smosh was at the time I was a little kid but I did see them film videos sometimes outside
no one asked
@@spiderfandom7592I'm no one
Must be funny looking back, not knowing what it would become 😅 just seeing a couple guys making videos and being weird and funny 😂
@@spiderfandom7592Did you say my name??!
@@spiderfandom7592this is literally a comment section
6:47 “Shaynes not long for this world” 🤣
I think we need to give massive appreciation to Rhett and Link for being the guardian Angel of the channel, without them I doubt Smosh would've ever returned to Ian and Anthony
Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:

I'm not up to date with this. What exactly did rhett and link do?
@@dzlmrn1450One of the last answers in the video covers this. Basically, when the company that had owned Smosh at the time collapsed in 2018, a lot of other companies were looking to buy that wouldn't have been healthy at all. Ultimately Rhett and Link bought it, essentially allowing them to continue doing what they do and later on keeping the door open for the recent buyback.
@@dzlmrn1450the parent company defy media was going bankrupt and Rhett and link bought the company before it would’ve went down then years later sold it to Anthony and Ian
@@dzlmrn1450 So smosh are bought by some company named Defy and they got bankrupt, Rhett and Link bought Smosh and letting them do whatever they want and most importantly, they keep the Smosh channel safe until Ian and Anthony bought it back.
Middle school me and adult me have never been happier to see these boys back together again ❤
😅😅7u7vuhjj. Hui⁸juhhbhhhbhhhvhhhvhhvuuv jjbu jju jbu but bubh8u8vv jj i

Smosh inspires me.. My parents said if i get 35K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
Same 😁
they're close to 30 I think its a stretch calling them boys ahaha
Anthony and Ian are literally legends. The fact that they embraced the legacy of their channel fondly and reminisce about their earliest days warms my heart. I cannot express enough about how much I'm glad they're back together.
It was defined media that ruined them in the first place but it’s good to know they’re back and that’s what matters
I love how this totally ties into Ian and Anthony being the best ship on smosh (other than shartney)
@@CherryBlossom-lg9nq Okay, but first of all, it seems kinda weird to ship real life people. And second of all, I don't condone homosexual relationships. I'm not saying this to offend any homosexuals out there, but I cannot imagine Anthony and Ian ever being attracted romantically.
Just after 10:30 when Anthony whips around very defensively to say "the only time" was great. I laughed and am glad their back working together, how his statement is true.
Anthony felt so funnily offended HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ever since Angela insulted Ian's sense in fashion, he's been getting more drip each video he's in 😂
LEGITIMATELY TOOK IT TO HEART😂❤
You are so right!
I will, because his best friend is back, and he has a reason to do this channel again
who is angela
@@suicideistheanswer369one of the Smosh Talent
I can't believe Rhett & Link actually saved smosh and Anthony's friendship with Ian. That was a wild ride
Edit:
A lot of people will see this comment so I wanna add that I really hope Ian and Anthony will properly go through everything they've missed out on ❤️
rhett and link are literally youtube's dads
Aww 2 best friends saved 2 other best friends’ future
@@crimsonchaos5Smosh's dads too~🤣❤
I need context on this lol
@@alexshu1794 They bought smosh for a while. It was a godsent move because it was after smosh's dark age with their terrible and controlling parent company.
So glad Anthony fought off all those laser dolphins
8:45 That science teacher is probably the most responsible for making the internet how it is.
I love their opposite aesthetics. Ian is giving little boy and Anthony is giving his older goth brother 😂
😂
It's always been like that
just like in the old days
Feels like a Zack and Cody moment and I also love it!!
they always dress opposite yet their personalities don’t match their dressing at all 😭
So it's mutually agreed that we must get this video to 250K so that we can see Ian fight a child, yes?
I suppose we will have to see if 249k people agree
@@mr.conductor4938 thats some bad math right there
Hope to see him fight a manchild
Shayne is pretty short, he might count
@@chompyofacelol maybe he can dress up as a toddler again
Ian has such a dad energy these days and i am loving it
13:56 Anthony laughing at Defy crumbling is everything 😂😂
It's so nice to see you guys back together. That's what the internet has been waiting for all this time.
Smosh inspires me.. My parents said if i get 35K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally

Now we just need Jenna back.
@@faeri_hopefully not
thanks
Pack it up guys, the internet is finished
It’s so nice to see this dad supporting his son’s career

My brain is working overtime to figure out who is who
@@smiley3047running joke on smosh pit that ian is a tired divorced dad
@@josiebrennan9491he just seems like the type. And Anthony is the outgoing, extroverted son. Kinda fits.
@@josiebrennan9491 Anthony is the son who is definitely not going through a phase Dad!
This is THE calmest I have EVER seen Ian LMFAOOO!!!
"what's your moon landing?" made me laugh so hard lmao
Their chemistry is just as good as the old days
I hope this chemistry got used for smosh videos.
It's better because they're actually friends now
True Smosh fans know they basically did their own version of the autocomplete interview on the "Ian is bored' channel years ago
That's Smosh Pit
Are you referencing the "Finding Twitter Questions"..?
@@HafidzMurshidieI think they’re talking about when they did the “Google Search Fun” videos for Ian is Bored on Smosh Pit like a decade ago
@@MasterArcanine Ahh, I forgot the existence of that one.. My mistake... In my defense, it only has a couple of episodes..
@@oliveiradmdiogo back in the day it was known as "Ian is Bored"
I’d like to tell you Ian that a couple days ago the Smosh house was labeled a historic landmark. It is now back to being labeled as a place of worship.
seeing ian and anthony being genuine friends again makes me so happy
It’s crazy that teacher’s decision would make one of the greatest comedy duos of our time
Was thinking the exact same thing. Amazing really.
Butterfly effect fr
THE Greatest comedy duo of all time
More like the other kids’ decision for not picking them
@@ChronoMuneThe entire class made the decision easier for the teacher, and I'm sure NONE of them expected that to change the world for the better. That one day...
They seemed genuinely happy in this video. I’m so glad they’re back
Being more mature

So weirdly proud of them for getting a wired autocomplete interview. The parasocial relationship is real.
Ian seems much more happy and lively now that Anthony's back
Finally after ten years, they're finally on wired
Smosh inspires me.. My parents said if i get 35K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
they already made one but Anthony wasnt on it
Well Wired wasn't relevant till 2016 or 2017
@@namantherockstar you don't need a pro camera for good content, go deserve ur 35k without begging
Love the completely opposing aesthetics they have and the fact that their personalities don’t match their aesthetics at all 😂
Lmao why is this is so accurate 😂 Ian's definitely the more chilled/dead pan stoic one whilst Anthony's the more sensitive and emotionally aware one - yet their aesthetics say it's the other way around lol
10:53
Little did they know there's actually a rapper called Lil Toe 😂
The way Anthony whips his head so fast at Ian saying he left the first time
Kind of off-topic but it is genuinely heart-warming to see the relationships Anthony has with his previous interviewees. The amount of trust they have in him is great.
I love this
great perspective
So happy to see Ian slowly finding his own style! :) their fashion is true barbenheimer
Oh my gosh that is the barbenheimer fit 😭
yes but ironically their personalities are barbenheimer in a way opposite to their respective aesthetics 😭😭
Ita good seeing them friends again. These guys were a massive part of my childhood
‘’The first time”
‘’The fir- the only time mothafucker”
Anthony unfiltered is the best 🤣🤣😭😭
Thank you for this Wired! Classic smosh is back and the hype is realll. FRIENDSHIP ALWAYS WINS!!! 🙌
Smosh inspires me.. My parents said if i get 35K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
True
@@namantherockstar commenting those won't help you tho
@@namantherockstarnah. begging like that ain't a good look, man
God, the fact Smosh is back makes me so incredibly happy.
So proud of them for buying their company back
Ikr? Never thought it was possible and it makes me so ridiculously happy.
smosh never left tho, just anthony /nm
@@izzayy_Smosh isn’t Smosh without Anthony…
Their outfits give the vibes Ian is a boomer dad and Anthony is his teenage son. Jokes aside it’s great to see the two happy together again :)
The fact that i can say “ian and anthony” again in 2023 makes me so happy. The last 6yrs of smosh felt so incomplete, anthony leaving is such a vivid memory and now him returning as well.
Im so happy man
I just love how everyone is so excited for Ian and Anthony to be back, but no one more than Ian and Anthony themselves. they are just so clearly STOKED to have smosh back and be together again, they talk about their reunion with shimmer in their eyes. this is amazing.
now all we need is for Jenna to feel comfortable coming back to RUclips and the balance of the universe will be restored
Y E S
And for nigahiga to come back. He hasn’t uploaded in 3 years :-(
@@deefhead9684I think he does a podcast now
@@deefhead9684he stream more on Twitch now…
@@deefhead9684 he still uploads on higatv, mostly gaming stuff
4:42 shows that Ian will always have a direct link to Anthony’s funny bone.
It’s so beautiful seeing these two back together
The fact that after being not friends for a couple of years and then reconnecting again and they’re better than before is just so sweet. It proves how strong friendship can be sometimes 😕
I for one would love to see Ian fight a child for content.
Belive it or not, this is actually my first video watched fully on wired. Lol.
same
Their company is such a cool thing that exists on the internet and Ian is such a badass for down playing it, Smosh Pit has been putting out absolute fire lately
I like how they instantly mention Shayne as a talent
THE talent lol
If Anthony and Ian is THE face of Smosh than Shayne is the face of Smosh pit
@@ariqsyafwan4987My dude carry the later Smosh for a very long time.
Crazy to think that there's a timeline out there where a different company bought Smosh which would've caused Ian to leave.
Or it would've been a good company
@@tumultuousv Highly doubt it. With Ian gone, most of the other staff would've left as well and the new company would hire a whole new team and the channel would've gone the way of equals 3 after RWJ left.
10:07 Anthony finally living up to his latino roots
I remember when Ian and Anthony would go on a computer and type in the first half of a question and read out the autofills. My sister, brother and I would basically watch that series on repeat.
It’s actually kinda wholesome seeing two buddies reunited again after years of being apart.
the fact that smosh "fanfic" got on there is WILD.
like there's not just a lot of fanfics, but apparently there are A LOT of people searching for them dear lord😂
11:22 when Anthony said bread head it reminded me of smosh babies
ME TOO oh my god i got so many memories
imagine being the teacher that paired them together on their assignment
anthony looked so proud to say "together we are smosh"
Seeing Ian and Anthony together still puts the absolute biggest smile on my face and I don't think this feeling is going to wear off anytime soon
I love how in the beginning the first question they answered it with full confidence 😂😂
I can't help but love the differences in their outfits, it's so funny to me
I didn't grow up with Smosh, I liked different stuff when I was a kid. But every time I see these two, it puts a smile on my face
I just realised whilst watching this that Anthony will probably appear only very rarely in unscripted videos. He’ll probably be spending his time doing sketches, running the company, and keeping his own channel going
I wouldn’t say rarely - they pump out a lot of content on the other channels and he’s already been popping in for a number of them, although to your point nowhere near the extent of Ian or the others.
I love seeing them together after all these years. Even if they didnt do videos I'd just be happy knowing they are friends again.
I like learning about them and hearing them talk about their time being creators. It's really varied and neither of them is conceited or selfish about any of it. They're both very open.
That would be an amazing smosh pit video, a journey to find their wax figures.
I basically learnt English by watching these guys when I was a little kid :,)
Same :,)
Kinda the same but I started watching Smosh only 5 years ago. XD
Saaaame omg
Nothing new but always refreshing to see them sit down and reminisce and talk about their past
You guys were the first OG RUclipsrs I watched and I’ve been WAITING for this day for forever. So happy you two are back. Sometimes breaks are needed. You guys are amazing. ❤ the OGs back at it again. Thank you so much to Rhett & Link 🥺❤️ whom I’ve come to find and love after og smosh left.
I'm so glad that I re-discovered Smosh a little more than a year ago and I fell in love with it again. The new cast members are hilarious and the videos are great. Also, I'm so happy Anthony is back now and again is owner of the company together with Ian.
I rediscovered it in the spring and I too and so glad and have been loving it.
So many of these types of channels just naturally fade out over time, so seeing Smosh reform and develop alongside of its creators really feels like something special
I’m so happy for them and the RUclipsverse. Honestly I love their channels and the staff there are really funny in all their channels. Improvs and comedy are hardwork!
These guys were my jam back in high school, and I'm glad to see that things have worked out between them!
"Friendship always wins" brought a tear to my eye..
The legends themselves.
Friendship always wins !!
0:15 omg this is gold
It's hard to think I grew up with these two and Rooster Teeth. Definitely shaped my humor
Ian realizing he was about to challenge the most passionate and toxic fan group in the form of the critters is decently hilarious.
12:35
Ok they need to put that Moon landing joke in a sketch somewhere that is hilarious
bro i was dying im a grown ah man😭
I love Ians fit
Love seeing these two back at it again. Brings me back to my middle school days watching OG youtube videos. Shout out to rhett and link for fostering smosh so that this could be a reality again.
I love it to hear they just let Pit and Games be their own thing.
"You just have to wait until one of the current smosh members dies" proceeds to pick probably the healthiest member of the cast to die next.
It's a joke about him being old, not unhealthy.
Ive missed these two man its just nostalgia and at the same time seeing their growth as people has been a really fun
I Was Today Years Old When I Found Out Watching Food Battle 2009😊😊😊
🤣 The comedy chemistry is amazing! They are a perfect balance, contrasted yet harmonious.
can we talk about how fire anthony’s fit is tho
Anthony trying to avoid the emo label as he sits here, still looking like a pop-punk frontman
13:02 you said it perfectly on cold ones!
I haven't watched smosh for ages, but i've watched it so much since they bought it again. Loving this return!
I personally liked the new old smosh better: the big cast and improv content are the best smosh era, but I'm glad Ian and Anthony are back together, I can't wait to see Smosh continue thriving ❤️❤️
That content isn't going anywhere
since Anthony came back I've been binging their content on all of there channels ive very much enjoyed almost all of there recent content in the past year or so.
The cast and crew have such history and lore with each other its genuinely just fun to see them all interact with each other.
@@aadil999 I hope so! my favorite series, the funerals, seem like they're gone for now!
@@MoonWolfMate I'm so happy you're liking it! it's so fun because most of them go way back so you can see their friendships developing and the beginning of the inside jokes and all of their dynamics are so fun it's like hanging out with a group of friends lol
@@blazehaze233 they just put out merch related to the funeral series, theyre not gonna just stop making those videos.
it's bizarre now that i always see anthony as an interviewer being the interviewee
Wishing the best for Classic Smosh’s return. Can’t believe my childhood is here to stay, go Ianthony!
I love that these 2 are considered celebrities! They've been my favorites since day one
This has to be the best year ever for Smosh
