is that what he was always like? I thought in his interview on Anthony's channel he sounds so uninterested like he doesn't wanna be there at all... no emotion in that dude's voice whereas Anthony is super happy to have him there
I love that Jackie always hits the newbies with that "have you ever been with a black woman?" Like obviously Anthony isn't new to Smosh, but she always does this in the tntl and it's fucking legendary lol Always works lol
So proud of Ian for sticking with Smosh all this time and for Anthony finding his way home. You can tell they’re both very happy to be working together again with full ownership over their creation.
Honestly "so, you must be the new guy" directed at anthony is the greatest moment of tntl. It's a single line years in the making. Might not be the most laugh-out-loud hilarious, but best moment.
I love the instant change in Ian's demeanor as soon as they did one with Anthony, he seems 10x more invested and happier now compared to the last few episodes they've done of this
As others have said, he doesn't feel like the sad, divorced dad trying to have fun with the kids anymore. He feels and acts like the cool older brother now.
@@ishnapandit I was referring to the rest of the cast. They are sort of use to what Ian usually does on TNTL but now with him teamed up with Anthony they have 2006 RUclips to deal with
I have the distinct feeling that Anthony may have been behind the scenes in a few videos. Though not actively involved with the video itself, but just watching. That might be why some of the cast would make the where’s Anthony jokes from time to time. But again, this is just pure speculation.
Sometimes, if the bit that someone does is too much for RUclips, they'll cut that bit out of the video before posting it. It happened with Keith a lot in one of the videos.
@@DJNOTNICE4620I’m rewatching it now and I just noticed Ian and Shayne’s bits are missing from Damien’s turn lol. How bad (for RUclips) were they, I wonder?
This actually makes me sad haha, the fact that all this time Ian could have felt so depressed about Anthony leaving that as soon as he returned his mood changed that much
I feel like I'm having a fever dream seeing them back together...HUGE Thanks to Rhett and Link for keeping Smosh afloat and also, selling them their company back. It's come full circle!
fr. we can't forget about Rhett and Link being the internet dads who saved the day. real folks who really care about the entertainment world and the creators who make it happen. I think its so cool that they really kept smosh afloat and allowed it to come to this day
I feel like Ian and Anthony will just laugh at anything each other do because they haven't gotten to make each other laugh in so long and their chemistry is instant
I had this semi recently with a buddy of mine. We met in 4th grade and were best friends until about 20. Took time away and reconnected at 27. Bro, we make eachother laugh so hard cause that chemistry just never left
I missed seeing this Anthony 😭😭 I'm not a para social relationship type of guy but I was OBSESSED with Smosh as a kid. I watched every Ians channel video and it makes me so happy seeing this vibe back
Does anyone know what the tune was? I know he basically "laughed" his way to that tune but it's like some fanfare at the theatre when they announce the next act or something like that. I thought it was one of the movie studio fanfares, Universal/MGM Studios something like that but wan't any of them.
It's crazy how much the vibe changed. It's like Ian de-aged by 10 years. And everyone seems to be having a genuinely good time. I'm glad Mythical saved them and then allowed Ian and Anthony to buy the channel back.
I have been thinking Ian looks sooo much happier than a couple of years ago, obviously, because it was such a tense, terrifiying time for the whole team. I'm just so happy for them all
Had the same thought, a few years back I always said how it seemed like Ian’s personality got a lot sadder after Anthony left, and now we can see how much brighter he is after he’s back. Ian and Anthony really are the other half’s to eachother
@draisens it could, if interviewing was all he ever did... but old smosh came first, and thus its more of a renaissance in his comedy career instead. I def think you can do both and it not be cringe
I just realised Shayne and Damien's friendship gives off the exact same vibe as Ian and Anthony's - the whole 'one person just has to breathe and the other one cracks up' kind of deal, plus both duos playing off of each other perfectly when involved in the same bit.
Anthony and Ian always had great chemistry, and I have not seen either of them have that kind of chemistry with anyone else, so I'm happy to see them together in videos again, it just feels right. These duos work 👍

I love how obvious it is that Anthony has been watching all the vids and how he knows the bits already. It makes the previous videos without him feel almost special, knowing he was also watching along and laughing too
All jokes aside, it does reassure me that when people talk about him bringing Smosh back to what it was, it doesn't mean purging all the faces we've come to love since. Let's be real, Angela at times is high school Ian and Anthony from another dimension
Didn’t help with all the constant “ Where’s Anthony” jokes that became popular for awhile. They were funny but ultimately ended in making me sad because he wasn’t there. The “ We found Anthony!” Though was so great and made all those earlier jokes both funny and worthwhile again.
"Found him" is the ultimate payoff to the where's anthony joke, love it. Loved some of the classic bit callbacks, they were perfect. Hoping Chanse's first on screen interaction with Anthony is asking who he is
i love how ian can always make anthony laugh and vice versa. their comedic sensibilities are so similar and thankfully we benefit from their shared sense of humor
ians pride watching the cast he created make his co-founder and bestfriend laugh was so special. u can just see him watch with absolute love as the effort and love he put into smash comes full circle. from the man he started it all with to the people that helped him let it grow and get through all the hardships. im so glad anthony is back and so excited to see where this era goes. (also og smosh squad, anthony and ian should do a try not to laugh just so the core people of the two smosh eras come full circle)
@@fortynights1513 i agree completely but i just feel like the og smosh squad was so instrumental in continuing smoshs legacy and growing their fanbase that i think that should be acknowledged and have its moment of the two core eras of smosh meeting at the start of the third !!! but i do love the new cast and it is amazing to see how smosh has grown and remained so cohesive since the intial split
I've watched a bit of old content but really only started watching Smosh after Anthony left. Still, him being back and him and Ian being able to own Smosh again just feels so right.
genuinely admire Anthonys willingness to put himself in the spot right out the gate as he returns to smosh, knowing its gotta have some awkwardness considering how much his absense has been used as the basis for bits and jokes, and the weird mixture of being both the new guy and simultaneously one of the OGs, he did great!
I love that this also feels like their way of making sure Anthony is caught back up on some of the shenanigans. Can't wait to see Anthony interact with Chanse, Angela, and Arasha
I want a Smosh Games video that is just Anthony, Arasha, Angela, Chanse, and Amanda. Anthony is just around the chaos and everyone else has no clue who he is XD
No idea who those people are 🤣🤣🤣. Haven't seen Smosh since Anthony left, in fact I saw it a little before he did it , and when he left I understood why. Hope this gets better, I love Ian and Anthony so much and Anthony's channel is amazing
Let's take a second to appreciate that Anthony didn't just come back to co manage the channel under The ownership of mythical but the fact that he came back and Smosh is it's own individual thing again , the fact that they bought it back is so precious and makes my heart full
0:04 Wow, I can't believe Antony actually left Smosh for years to make this punchline work. Gotta appreciate the sheer amount of dedication Smosh has to making a funny gag.
The addition of the BTS bits is absolutely huge, please keep doing that. From the tidbits Alex says to things said between takes, it's really feeling even more like a family with that stuff added in to the video. 🎉
The way tommy asks “that’s not bestiality, is it kimmy?” really makes me feel like there was a meeting once where they had to hash out banned topics and bestiality was a recent discussion 💀💀💀
Feels so overdone. Maybe its just me, but I felt like Jackie flopped this round and dude really bring anything that got me to crack. A lot of the jokes were low hanging fruit 😕
Yes, I1n is happy, that's a fact but I see the difference in Anthony’s eyes. He like accepted it but he may be not this enthusiastic about this. They aged after all
@@vlad_ruda4202 I think ian's happy cause hes got his best friend back and is no longer shouldering leading the company on his own not mention having complete control again. While anthony isn't super use to doing this kind of content anymore since his solo stuff was alot more serious but he seems to warm up to it abit more as this episode goes on.
@@Notaforumguy007 i hope anthony doesnt get stressed out from having two youtube channels. I really enjoy his content in the other channel and it would be sad for someone else to take over
@@vlad_ruda4202 dude, if Anthony wasn’t stoked or happy about this, he would’ve not came back. He made it 100% clear this would of never happened if he wasn’t fully in on it. He is not gonna put himself back into this channel if it’s not what he wants.
Chanse, walking in the day after Anthony's return: "So... we've got a new guy? Cool, welcome, I can show you around. It's so nice not to be the only one who didn't know Smosh before! Don't worry, everyone here is mostly great. Have you met Ian yet?"
16:00 I love how you can tell Tommy already knows the punchline that is coming with this joke. I have a feeling he's actually had this exact situation happen to him at a bar/club before, lol!
Oh yeah Anthony and Ian bought Smosh btw ruclips.net/video/DwsZggwPRKc/видео.html
Congrats to them on owning the channels!

I love how the cast has learned Tommy’s sense of humor so perfectly that he can’t help but laugh
I love Tommy so much
Tommy is so damn funny man. Fave of the smosh squad (besides the kings themselves)
I love that Jackie and Shayne brought back some of their best bits for Anthony
I love how obvious it is that Anthony has been watching all the vids and how he knows the bits already. It makes the previous videos without him feel almost special, knowing he was also watching along and laughing too
All jokes aside, it does reassure me that when people talk about him bringing Smosh back to what it was, it doesn't mean purging all the faces we've come to love since. Let's be real, Angela at times is high school Ian and Anthony from another dimension
@@castleoffiction96 I could see her being compared to that.
We need a friendly battle of the bromances: Ian and Anthony vs Shayne and Damien.
The internet NEEDS that.
I think Shayne and Damien wold stomp. They are literal BRO-mance.
Then it needs to turn into a food battle tournament style.
Bro Battle 2023
I like this setup but I think ill love the finished product😂😁
This is so cringe pls do we really need this? Lol
Jackie getting Anthony with her classic joke and him coming with the “not yet”😳😳😂
I knew that was coming 😂
Anthony's " Not _yet_ " followed by Jackie's unicorn joke took me OUT 🦄🤣
hi
You can actually see the life return to Ian's eyes, he seemed so depressed when Anthony left glad to see that spark return
oh yeah! i didn't even realize!
I realized that too 😌
Didn’t help with all the constant “ Where’s Anthony” jokes that became popular for awhile. They were funny but ultimately ended in making me sad because he wasn’t there. The “ We found Anthony!” Though was so great and made all those earlier jokes both funny and worthwhile again.
I said the same!!
It's really nice because he gets to make his old best friend laugh again
I want there to be a sketch where Anthony sees only the post-leave cast and freaks out asking "WHO ARE YOU PPL"
"Post-leave cast" 😆
Brilliant!!!
“Who is this chanse guy”
I hope it's like a haunted house kind of thing
I was tryna remember if Damien was post-leave cast. I remember he came AROUND the same time but I don’t remember if it was just before or just after.
Ian just looks like he’s got his spark back, y’know? Like his best friend came back home and it’s complete again lol I’m so happy for them :)
Anthony finally meeting The Chosen is something I've always dreamed of loving Classic Smosh and Try Not to Laugh
"Found him" is the ultimate payoff to the where's anthony joke, love it. Loved some of the classic bit callbacks, they were perfect. Hoping Chanse's first on screen interaction with Anthony is asking who he is
THATS the nxt moment i need
LMAO STOPP i needed chanse to comment under the insta post “who’s anthony” 😭
I think we're all waiting for this LMAO!!!
ian and anthony are like the perfect example of friends who can spend x amount of time apart and act like it's been 5 minutes.
well someone sure didnt watch the new video on anthony padillas channel
@@Solbashio my brother in christ. it is a satire comment.
@@elizabethblack742you don’t know what satire is
@@OptAlexanderyall know how to kill a joke
@@Solbashiotbf, they said that they fell back into their old pattern like no time had passed
Two things;
1. So happy to have Anthony back
2. You strut your stuff for Anthony, Jackie. Do it for women kind and make us proud
It’s so funny seeing Jackie’s heart skip a beat after Anthony said “Not Yet”
he has a long term girlfriend
@@sera6168 It’s a joke.
“And I…and I can DJ.” 🤣🤣🤣 the delivery was perfect 🤣🤣🤣
i cant stop smiling at anthony and ian’s chemistry, it never left
hey
It was always in their Biology
Because they became friends in Biology
Eh, I’d say it left to grab some milk for a few years, but came back the same
The amount of Damien and Shayne duo bits this ep feels like they were wanting to step up against the incredible duo that reunited
Can't even come close to the OGs
And made fun of themselves instead
@@insomniactm7528 bro they are also a funny duo
@@insomniactm7528hello fellow insomniac
Oh please, let's not compare both duos. They're both amazing in their own rights.
i love how ian can always make anthony laugh and vice versa. their comedic sensibilities are so similar and thankfully we benefit from their shared sense of humor
ians pride watching the cast he created make his co-founder and bestfriend laugh was so special. u can just see him watch with absolute love as the effort and love he put into smash comes full circle. from the man he started it all with to the people that helped him let it grow and get through all the hardships. im so glad anthony is back and so excited to see where this era goes. (also og smosh squad, anthony and ian should do a try not to laugh just so the core people of the two smosh eras come full circle)
It’s definitely cool to see the more recent people interacting with Anthony.
And yeah, Ian’s look and general vibe says it all.
@@fortynights1513 i agree completely but i just feel like the og smosh squad was so instrumental in continuing smoshs legacy and growing their fanbase that i think that should be acknowledged and have its moment of the two core eras of smosh meeting at the start of the third !!!
but i do love the new cast and it is amazing to see how smosh has grown and remained so cohesive since the intial split
Better yet, they should do a 2 teams version with Ian and the newer members, and Anthony with the OG Smosh squad. That would be pretty wild.
OMG, that would be EPIC!!!
The fact that to some viewers this might be their first smosh video with anthony is mind blowing to me
I've watched a bit of old content but really only started watching Smosh after Anthony left. Still, him being back and him and Ian being able to own Smosh again just feels so right.
I also love that Anthony's coming back knowing that the cast and crew and fandom, while all have changed and grown, still love him.
It is for me firsthand.
Always wanted to see him on TNTL
@@fortynights1513 oh wow, really hope you enjoy the new content with Anthony!!
The fact that Anthony already knew some of the new Smosh details and jokes is heartwarming
I love Anthony's pure commitment to physical comedy.
genuinely admire Anthonys willingness to put himself in the spot right out the gate as he returns to smosh, knowing its gotta have some awkwardness considering how much his absense has been used as the basis for bits and jokes, and the weird mixture of being both the new guy and simultaneously one of the OGs, he did great!
TRUEING I CANT BELIEVE OUR BOY AND ALL OF HIS PIERCINGS ARE BACK
I hope the cartoons would make a comeback as well
I love that this also feels like their way of making sure Anthony is caught back up on some of the shenanigans. Can't wait to see Anthony interact with Chanse, Angela, and Arasha
oh gawd the chaos! give meeeee ! [said in invader ZIM voice lol]
I want a video of Chanse meeting Anthony and thinking he's a new cast member and having no clue. 😂
O boy
I want a Smosh Games video that is just Anthony, Arasha, Angela, Chanse, and Amanda. Anthony is just around the chaos and everyone else has no clue who he is XD
No idea who those people are 🤣🤣🤣. Haven't seen Smosh since Anthony left, in fact I saw it a little before he did it , and when he left I understood why. Hope this gets better, I love Ian and Anthony so much and Anthony's channel is amazing
we NEED a Ian and Anthony vs Damien and Shayne episode now
omg yes please O_O
o fuck I'm goin insane
May the best *besties* win! 😂
YES
YESSS
12:29 Damien's joke was a fucking highlight for me "you're one step removed, youre fine" killed me
Let's take a second to appreciate that Anthony didn't just come back to co manage the channel under The ownership of mythical but the fact that he came back and Smosh is it's own individual thing again , the fact that they bought it back is so precious and makes my heart full
I'm actually weirdly sad that they're not part of mythical -- I hope we still get crossovers with the two casts and they can be neighbors still haha
@@avryantoinetteI mean, they would probably be doing skits with Rhett and Link
Thankful for Mythical. Wouldn’t be here without Rhett n Link
@@shayneletendre9451 for sure that's a given
@@avryantoinette i hope so too , it's always fun when they Collab
0:04 Wow, I can't believe Antony actually left Smosh for years to make this punchline work. Gotta appreciate the sheer amount of dedication Smosh has to making a funny gag.
gotta commit to the bit
Crazy dedication to the bit
I can’t wait for all the Damien & Shayne vs. Ian & Anthony challenges. New Smosh vs. Old Smosh.
YEEEEESSS
Yes!!!!!!!!
Add Amanda & Angela for Newer Smosh
@@adewilliam9047 Yes!
I love how from the first moment ian and anthony do a bit together it becomes apparent that they are just having so much fun
NOW there has to be a series with Anthony and Ian explaining SMOSH history to Chance 😂😂😂
YES PLEASE!
A smosh crash course!
@@stellslab7944 Totally hope they see this and go with that name 🤣🫰🏾✌🏾🤞🏾
NOW there is has to be series there new ones explain new bits to Anthony.
There needs to be a BEOPARDY
The deliverymen bit at 8:30 deserves a full blown sketch of its own, that was SO good
seriously!
omfg that bit was GREAT.
The image of them just standing there together looking at each other is enough to make me bust out laughing
I wanna know more
Anthony and Ian being on Smoth together makes me smile so much, legends have created this channel in 2005
old smoth is back!
Looks like I can't escape you
I LOVE SMOTH!!!😍😍😍
Smoth is so many people's childhood!
smoth is life!
It’s so surreal seeing Anthony back again, especially with Damien, Shayne, Jackie and Tommy. Ian definitely looks like his soul has been restored.
Just wait until he has to work alongside Olivia, Angela, Amanda and Courtney. All chaotic weirdos who may be too crazy or just as crazy as he is.
@@dylancole1910 oh yeah dude, it will be a nice reunion with Courtney, but oh man, can’t wait for the others.
... Ian? Soul? In the same sentence, without the words "has a void instead of a" between them? You're not making any sense, friend.
9:57 “The double-decker twerk, we’re bringing it back!”
I can say that without a doubt the best thing about Anthony being back is that Ian makes waaaayyyyy more sense now 😂
Right? The other half of the crazy. It's just balance.
The fact that we have Ian and Anthony as a team and also Shayne and Damien as a team this is going to be great
The Food Battle potential on this!!!
Or a Smosh Summer Games theme…
The fact that anthonys response almost broke jackie was hilarious
The addition of the BTS bits is absolutely huge, please keep doing that. From the tidbits Alex says to things said between takes, it's really feeling even more like a family with that stuff added in to the video. 🎉
The way tommy asks “that’s not bestiality, is it kimmy?” really makes me feel like there was a meeting once where they had to hash out banned topics and bestiality was a recent discussion 💀💀💀
ok
ok
ok

Jackie bringing out one of her best bits for Anthony and him uno reversing it while beet red is ICONIC
If that’s her best, she shouldn’t be in Smosh

Anthony with the "Not yet" is the BEST response I have seen to Jackie's bit yet 😂
Everytime there is a new guest in the seat and Jackie is in the cast, I’M JUST WAITING for the horny Jackie joke!
Feels so overdone. Maybe its just me, but I felt like Jackie flopped this round and dude really bring anything that got me to crack. A lot of the jokes were low hanging fruit 😕
@@alecm8232 damn don't watch then
@@alecm8232"Overdone" lol she's done the joke like twice before. Bet you really don't like Shayne then.
@@alecm8232bro has a problem with jackies iconic joke but not with the countless other repetitive jokes👁️👄👁️
Loved Jackie's bit as Shayne's manager, worried that "the hot one" is now back 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Ok Anthony’s “not yet” KILLED me, I’m so happy he’s back
That was the best part of this whole thing
And... And I can d... I can DJ.
As someone who has only recently been a smosh fan, I have never seen Ian this happy. Its refreshing to see honestly.
Yes, I1n is happy, that's a fact but I see the difference in Anthony’s eyes. He like accepted it but he may be not this enthusiastic about this. They aged after all
@@vlad_ruda4202 I think ian's happy cause hes got his best friend back and is no longer shouldering leading the company on his own not mention having complete control again. While anthony isn't super use to doing this kind of content anymore since his solo stuff was alot more serious but he seems to warm up to it abit more as this episode goes on.
@@Notaforumguy007 i hope anthony doesnt get stressed out from having two youtube channels. I really enjoy his content in the other channel and it would be sad for someone else to take over
@@vlad_ruda4202 dude, if Anthony wasn’t stoked or happy about this, he would’ve not came back. He made it 100% clear this would of never happened if he wasn’t fully in on it. He is not gonna put himself back into this channel if it’s not what he wants.
I didn't even watch Smosh before Anthony left, but I can't help getting caught up in the excitement of him returning. Thanks Smosh, very cool.
Same,it’s like watching an old friend seamlessly integrate with new friends
@@samstribridexactly!
facts
Same here! I'm so excited for them!
Ive been watching since the start
11:28 gotta love how anthony reprised his role as the mime from mime fail
"Mime win?!" Lol
@@kelvinhow1965 what anthony is doing is from the scene where the mime is stuck in a invisible wall on a house fire
Poor Chanse must be so confused. Anthony needs the saxophone and the blue smosh funeral suit so everyone can take turns saying “who’s that guy?”
Chanse, walking in the day after Anthony's return: "So... we've got a new guy? Cool, welcome, I can show you around. It's so nice not to be the only one who didn't know Smosh before! Don't worry, everyone here is mostly great. Have you met Ian yet?"
I thought of this immediately after the announcement and got very concerned for him. Also loved the idea of him having zero clue who his new boss was.
The Damien and Shayne pageant bit was actually incredible. You can just feel the positive energy in this video.
I re-watched the bit because of this comment and laughed harder on every re-watched. So many little details. 😂
We need a Beopardy with Chanse, Arasha and Angela being quizzed by Shayne about Anthony and Ian/Smosh history.
@@jonnbonn y'all gone be complaining about something later on if they do that
@@jonnbonnI really thought your kind would get out of the comments once he came back, I see I was wrong.
@@jonnbonn or you can just stop watching. you won't be missed
AHAHAHA PLEASE
@@jonnbonnthat’s literally what the main channel is about to be dude, let Pit and Games be
Ian looks like he's glowing, i'm genuinely so happy for him
Jackie being excited to be in an "old Smosh sandwich" is a mood.
😂😂😂😂
I like the fact that Anthony actually made all of them laugh/spit out water. Just shows they were not ready for the wonderful crazy ideas in his head.
And Anthony did that with less talking, more to action. It was more impressive tbh.
After seeing Anthony make basically only chill content through the years, I forgot how goofy he is🤣
16:00 I love how you can tell Tommy already knows the punchline that is coming with this joke. I have a feeling he's actually had this exact situation happen to him at a bar/club before, lol!
It would be funny if they do a skit where everytime Anthony gets out of sight they start freaking out and asking where's Anthony
Deeemn hahahaha
No!!!! Do not reignite that trauma! We just got him back yesterday after like 10 years! Lmao 😢no
