Happy New Year Josh 🎉🥂 wishing you a great year ahead! Thanks for keeping the Sidemen going, we all know you’re the boss man out of all of you guys haha. Ps. Will there be any more Charity Match tickets being sold? Planning on coming from the US with my husband and son but we didn’t find any.
last to pee might be the best i cant lie. surviving in the forest had bigger moments for sure but last to pee just got better (which makes sense) as it went on
Bring in Lannan and Lachlan for some Australia content. Abandonned in Australia, Race from Sydney to either Melbourne or Brisbane. The Cheap vs Expensive holiday videos, there's some gem spots in Australia (North Queensland, Gold Coast, Noosa, Uluru, Great Ocean Road) and some absolute bin spots too.
instead of a race, maybe a proper road trip (no challenges or cheap vs expensive, more group activites along the way, combine it with a camping style video ran by Lannan and Lachlan). start it in perth and send it through to uluru, then up to the north of queensland. then for another video do a vlog trip style video with the whole group going through the gold coast, brisbane, sydney (maybe get a bathurst race in there or F1 in melbourne, a golf trip, amusement parks, just to mix in fun days out kinda vibes) and Melbourne. make that into a video more for them than for the views, and then at the end, they could do some sort of video starting there that ends with them flying out to other countries and do a holiday style video from there, maybe a bali and fiji video where they have equal budgets but experience different holidays aussies usually go on for cheap but not make it miserable type of cheap
Storage Units NEEDS a Part 2, the guest were on point, the boys were entertaining and involved, the host, Ethan was perfect, it was so entertaining 10/10 NEEDS a Part 2!
@@J55_ZRit felt like more than just a YT video while at the same time having that YT Sidemen video energy. I couldn’t tell you why, or point to any detail in the video. It was all just a virtually perfect blend. It absolutely needs a part 2
My top 5: 1. Survive the Forest 2. Europe Holiday (Ibiza) 3. How many countries can you visit in 24 hours 4. Most Expensive Car Challenge 5. Winter Holiday Honorable Mentions -> both Abandoned videos and Hunted Across the UK I would say that Josh, Simon, and Ethan had a very good year overall As for the worst 5, it would be 1. Kids & Grandparents brutally rate the Sidemen 2. Haunted House 3. RUclipsr Food 4. Fashion Show 5. Would I lie to you
My only except would be I quite liked the food one (not top 5, but not the worst), and would swap the expensive car challenge with the storage locker one
Best video for me is the JJ Negro Van Sunday video. That was a banger. Every moment on that was very memorable. From seperating the sidemen, to having Harry meet Behz to crack the code, to Viks kidnapping and having Toby to go rescue him, to having Simon think he was being tortured by flying him pass the villa, to JJ discovering his new hippie life in the bad team, just to many great moments in that video. It was amazing.
ehhh everyone glazes the forest one because it was “wholesome” (like they do with all sidemen vids with wholesome bits in it 👀) i’m backing josh the top two is 100% the holiday vids. regardless camping one was still good asf
@@bvrtdllit was wholesome, but I think people like it because it was like everyone is together, instead of two different teams. Probably my favorite vid of the year
The Vogue/runway one was one of my faves of the year, probably because it was most unexpected. I think it would have been better if the teams did more then one look each but i know it will never get a part 2 haha
Idk if it actually had hate. I think most people just didn’t care for the fashion show concept and didn’t give it a chance. It was disinterest that made it a huge L because as far as views it performed horribly. Idk if ppl actually complained about it
Same, i enjoy seeing them do things out of their comfort zone, though i do think the audience or rather, who was in the audience spoiled the end. I just think with a male majority audience, people saw 'fashion show' & didn't bother or were pre-disposed to dislike it.
@@unintentionaleffectiveness4393yeah. Didn’t see hate from people that watched it. Just think Josh talked a little too much about views of the video in his ranking rather than just the video itself. Models was a lot better than majority but because it has so little views he deems it as a failure
Sidemen GTA in real life, around the launch of VI... find a large area to make a paintball set, one building has an escape room-esque puzzle failed checks mean the 'police' response time goes down. Three teams, two work together as cops as the third tries the heist, goal is to then escape with the loot. Could work in vehicles like go karts, opens up for backstabbing, hostage negotiation etc, maybe even have roles like one person is a safe cracker, one is a get away driver etc... GTA is so core to the Sidemen origins would be great to see it in some way on the main channel and the launch of VI kinda feels like the best time
I get that views can sometimes give a misleading picture, but when people really like something, you can feel it. You can often tell who’s new and who’s been around for a while. Those who genuinely enjoy this type of content don’t always get the support they deserve. A lot of viewers tend to flock to what’s popular, while the ones who actually sit down and watch every video often discover those hidden gems that make each one special. Honestly, I believe comments speak louder than views. I totally understand that you want as many people as possible to watch your videos so you can keep creating, but it feels like comparing your older content to what you’re doing now might be more about appealing to newer viewers and boosting those numbers. I’m saying all this with love-there’s no hate here! I truly appreciate the content you’ve been putting out. But I think a lot of people want to see what you’re genuinely passionate about, rather than just what’s trending or seems to do well. It’s a bit of a sad truth that many viewers prioritize popular content over what’s real and authentic, especially on platforms like RUclips.
Top 3: Storage wars, Among Us Cooking, Try not to pee Bottom 3: Kids and grandparents, Haunted house, Sidemen pop the balloon. Special mention: Million pound drop 2. Love the concept but Harry was so ridiculously lazy with this one. Million pound drop 1 had a lot more effort put into it and it showed. East filler for the new year: Sidemen eat hot wings 2. Don't have to overthink it, just a bunch of hot wings and some questions and watch JJ be JJ again. Halloween idea: Sidemen Among Us at Dracula's Castle in Romania. The entire part of Europe could be an absolute gold mine for Sidemen content.
I’m one of the people that suggested the haunted video and it wasn’t great. I was thinking more of The Boys style of haunted video but as a Sidemen Sunday (Theirs get between 12-30 million views). But it’s better when it’s at a more commonly known haunted location like The Ram Inn or jamaica inn. Which you can also add in brackets in the title. And would be more better if it was focused on the investigation side more instead of being firmly based on entertainment. I suggest researching the boys haunted videos to understand why
Personally I enjoyed Pub Quiz more than Bingo among those 2 similar videos. The quiz was fun to watch because I was able to play along, whereas Bingo there’s no way for viewers to interact much
I liked sidemen survive 24 hrs in woods, we opened a 5 star restaurant was chaotic but I never laughed so much at a video. And my 3rd favorite is abandoned in Europe 2 I thought was so great tied with ibizia holiday
I'm not a fan of the dating/tinder vids as it feels like they are for the younger audience. I do like the hide and seeks though because most of the time it's just you guys and the guests just being themselves. Anytime you have lots of the extended sidemen like the recent pub quiz and bingo it's always a great time. The mystery boxes are great as well and anything with Stephen Tries hosting is great as well. Survive in a Forrest is the best vid of the year.
My top 5 would be: 1. Ibiza holiday 2. How far can you go in 24 hours 3. Abandoned in Portugal 4. How many countries in 24 hours 5. Abandoned in Ireland And honorable mentions to: Storage Wars, the race in the most expansive country, the foot golf, the food truck war, the island hide and seek and the youtubers pub golf Overall an amazing year with a lot of amazing Sidemen Sundays, you guys are always smashing it!!
Video ideas I came up with: 1. Sidemen Survive in a Castle for 24hrs (Include playing medieval games such as jousting with pool noodles, etc. Losing the games involves forfeits and they have to live as people in medieval times would’ve) 2. Sidemen Dress to Impress (Have a set that includes various clothing items, wigs, and accessories. RUclipsr judges that pick each category and the Sidemen have strict time limit to dress according to each category, the judges then decide the ranking and whoever loses has to do a forfeit or something). 3. Sidemen Survive in Heels for a day (the sidemen split up into teams all wearing high heels and try to do a series of challenges EX: football, golf, etc all whilst in heels, whoever gets the most points wins) 4. Sidemen hide and seek in a castle (could use the same castle from my first suggestion so you could get two videos in the same place and invite other RUclipsrs for hide and seek) 5. The Sidemen Try To Play Rugby or American football ft. a famous rugby, or American football player (pretty self explanatory) 6. The Sidemen Try to Survive a Ballet class (bring in a strict ballet teacher and have all the sidemen try to take a class with them, I think it would be hilarious seeing Harry try to keep his balance, etc) I’ll probably think of more later :))
I actually really liked the “last to leave football pitch” video because it almost gave me nostalgia vibes from old sidemen videos and the moments in that video ie. Josh’s freekick was sooo amazing
Storage Units was my favourite - loved the twists, deffo do this again with bigger budget and same judges, good vibes all round. An idea i would LOVE for them to do is Extreme Hide and Seek where they hire SFK people to blend them into backgrounds / crowds etc. Would be fun. Fasion show was solid, but i do agree the first half made it an L overall, but the end was funny. Haunted house was the only vid i didn't watch, couldn't get through it... i am okay with scripted vids, but only when it's intertwined better, it just wasn't for me.
The pop the balloon could have been the same concept but at the end of each guys girls, any girl who made it on to the throne(even if dethroned), for lets say george’s round, then afterwards compete for his date, not just the last on the throne, so you can dethrone and such for content but not ruin the actually date content with george in this case
Sometimes to be honest and not just in a I miss being younger way. I kinda hate how big RUclips videos have to be or how big RUclipsrs feel they need to be. Whenever I watch the moresidemen videos those are chill and really entertaining, the main channel is becoming so mr beast-like
Josh I hope you know you’re the most undervalued asset in the Sidemen. I know you lot have meetings and vote on things but it’s clear to me how you’re directing operations as you have the ability to see what videos will be worth putting more time and effort into. I really look up to you man. Been a fan for over 10 years, thank you for all the laughs and vibes.
need more camping/survival videos e.g camping in iceland and a desert. would love to see the sidemen in more non-european countries so theres a different vibe
my top 3: 1. Survive for 24h in forest 2. Storage Wars 3. Hide and seek at westfield Bottom 3 are: 3. Would I lie to you (i found this one different to the other gameshows) 2. Guess the criminal (carried by lizard guy) 1. Pop The Balloon (This is the worst Sidemen Video Ever Imo)
hide and seek in westfield is super underrated i kinda forgot how much better that was compared to the rest of the videos they did this year. probably not top 3 but definitely close
More cheap vs. expensive and more of all of you guys together this coming year please! The Ibiza video was incredible all around. & more Vik and Harry together, they are a killer duo.
Video suggestions: -Sidemen cheap vs expensive boat trip (a proper deluxe yacht/cruise holiday of a couple days and the other team have to spend a whole day and night on a dingie/rowboat (obviously while being supervised in case shit goes south)). -Sidemen fear factor. -Sidemen poker/casino night. -Sidemen legends of the hidden temple (you can do like an additional game before starting the actual games to define the order to pick a teammate (another 6 youtubers/celebrities) so its like 6 teams with each a sidemen and a celebrity and the remaining sidemen will host). -Sidemen cheap vs expensive holiday asia edition (a team goes to dubai and another one goes to like mongolia or something) You can also do video variations (like holiday, roadtrip, abandoned) on africa and eastern europe to say the most affordable places to go other than the ones you have already done. Also do silent library, treasure hunt and spill your guts with youtubers
My Top 3: 1) How far can you travel in 24 Hours 2) 40.000 vs 400$ Holiday 3) Camping My Bottom 3: 1) Kids and Grandparents 2) Hounted House 3) Boat-Trip All in all a very enjoyable and great year of Videos imo :) Can't wait ti see what you're about to Cook in 25!!
Top 5 1.hide and seek on an island 2.Europe holiday(ibiza) 3.Abandoned in Portugal 4.Hunted 5. Abandoned in Ireland Honorable Mentions: RUclipsr pub quiz,hide and seek in stadium,hide and seek in Westfield
Top 3: Hunted - Bach was such a funny inclusion Restaurant - chaos we love so much from among us in real life. Tobi was phenomenal in this video. Camping - no brainer, 10/10 vibes
maybe it’s really unpopular, but my favourite was actually the canal boat trip video!! loved the wholesome vibes, lots of moments had me laughing so hard :3 also the guests were great
My favorite videos are by far the travelling / abandoned / holiday videos. Worst video (and potentially the worst Sidemen Sunday ever) was the Kids rating the Sidemen for me. Really liked the try not to pee video too, I think you're underrating it. All hide & seek videos this year have been really fun too, including the Harry's house one.
I loved the storage hunter vid , camping in the Forrest, hide and seek , there top vids also love the buying presents for each other videos (the chase too)
Hi Josh just thought of some American videos you could do. One - how many states can you visit in 24 hours. 2 teams, challenges to earn money. Allowing all forms of travel. Video idea 2- 4 corners monument. Drop 4 teams of 2/3 (get RUclipsrs in it preferably Europe) each team gets dropped into the a section of a state and start with very basic gear and money (100 dollars) and have to make it to the monument. Make the challenges similar to the Portugal one (one form of transport, must eat a certain food in that state) maybe use American RUclipsrs ie Logan or speed but I think they may know how to get there I think the video will be better if no one has a clue! Thanks for reading 👍🏼
Top 5 for me : 1) survive the forest 2) ibiza holiday 3) storage wars 4) how far you can travel in 24 hours 5) Abandoned in ireland Worst 5: 1)kids/grandparents 2) youtuber food 3) haunted house 4) fashion show 5) would i lie to you
Abandoned in Portugal was my favourite, haunted was the worst. The Airbnb video you rated too high, the Stuttgart and Croatian teams had nothing to do, I loved all the other travel videos though. The success of the balloon video will hopefully mean more dating videos. I think you should bring back PubGolf, but with guests replacing the non-drinking Sidemen in foreign locations. The PubGolf videos were rated all-time favourites by Side+ members. Mystery boxes should be left in the past and maybe gameshows, unless you do something like The Amazing Race. So travel, abandoned, PubGolf, road trips, hide and seek in impressive locations, cheap v expensive football matches international versions and new concepts like storage wars.
My top 5 are: 1. Survive the forest 2. Europe Ibiza holiday 3. How far can u travel in 24hrs & how many countries can u visit in 24hrs 4. hunted across the UK 5. most expensive car challenge honourable mention: youtuber pub golf, the chase, winter holidays!
Top 3: "How far can you get with you and Harry ending up in the Maldives" "Narrow Boats" "Storage Wars" Bottom 3: "Grandparents/kids" "Haunted House" "The last among us irl" Also, I hope you one day get the chance to make something for a big tv production. I think you would excel at that! Happy 2025 to everyone!
Genuinely i just love all the travel videos(Cheap vs Expensive/Races/Holidays/Hunted/Abandoned) especially when they are 2 hours+ long so we def need more of those next year
Tbh I just do not like the among us irls, don’t get me wrong I have watched most of them (haven’t watched the latest) and they do have their good moments (like Ethan on the stairs, the locking in the “med bay scan”) but something about them just doesn’t hit 🤷🏻♀️
You host some of the best Sidemen videos every year! The abandoned videos, race videos and cheap vs expensive holidays are always some of the best ones.
This may have been the best year for Sidemen Sundays imo. Great guests, great concepts, and great moments. Only a few stand out to me as stinkers, like the Haunted House. Overall, an amazing year I can't decide a top 3, but I think my top 5 (in no particular order) are the Ibiza holiday, Winter holiday, Camping, and both Abandoned videos. Honourable mention to the Island Hide n Seek. Worst 3 videos of the year were Haunted House (probably my least favourite Sidemen video ever that I've watched), Pop the Balloon (I thought it was an incredibly shit concept and without Mark Henry and Tism it would have been worse than Haunted), and the Kids/Old People vid
Top 3 1. 24 hour camping/survival 2. Running a restaurant 3. Ibiza Bottom Videos where other people try to be as loud as possible, or in other ways try too hard to make themselves noticed. I watch The Sidemen for The Sidemen, not for Ishowspeed or Danny Aarons or Joe Weller or whoever.
Another version of camping would be good maybe two teams to mix it up with some guests and they have to make there camp type activities like build shelter, catch food and then end of the video is you bring a survival pro who rates the two bases based on like a couple of things.
Top 5 1.forest 2.Europe Holiday 3.both pub vids 4.among us chaos edition 5.last to pee Hounarable mentions Storage wars Foodtruck roadtrip Among us cooking W2S nd mall hide n seek Guess the crinimal
Next year needs to include a climbing challenge of some sort (Kilimanjaro/Everest Base Camp), a trip to Australia with Lachlan and Lannan as a sort of team guide and something like visit as many stadiums as you can in 24 hours and do challenges at each including furthest distance away from London challenge
Top 3: RUclipsr Hide & Seek On An Island, Chaos Mode Among Us and RUclipsr Hide & Seek In A Stadium. Bottom 3: Kids & Grandparents Rank The Sidemen, Haunted House and Fashion Show.
I think a good concept for getting hunted across europe is that whenever you get to a certain country you get some kind of reward for example: the other team can't move for 15 minutes, the hunters can only walk backwards for 10 minutes, you get to see the location of the hunters for a said amount of time. and to make the rewards more intriguing to get you can set it that the further the country is away the better the rewards may be.
My Top 5 were - 1-Most countries travelled in 24 hours 2-Garage sale vid 3-Last to Pee 4- Winter Holiday 5 - the chase Honourable mention to irl among us chaos mode
Happy New Year Everyone!
Happy New Year unc!
Happy New Year Josh 🎉🥂 wishing you a great year ahead! Thanks for keeping the Sidemen going, we all know you’re the boss man out of all of you guys haha.
Ps. Will there be any more Charity Match tickets being sold? Planning on coming from the US with my husband and son but we didn’t find any.
Happy New Year
Happy new year Josh
woo
Camping was easily the best video of the year imo
Camping and RUclipsr ones Clarkey pie Joe features were good
Because it reminded us of old times when they hung out as a friend group. It was beautiful.
last to pee might be the best i cant lie. surviving in the forest had bigger moments for sure but last to pee just got better (which makes sense) as it went on
Bring in Lannan and Lachlan for some Australia content. Abandonned in Australia, Race from Sydney to either Melbourne or Brisbane. The Cheap vs Expensive holiday videos, there's some gem spots in Australia (North Queensland, Gold Coast, Noosa, Uluru, Great Ocean Road) and some absolute bin spots too.
Hopefully not too hard for you to get out here. I know it's a big hassle
Sidemen get abandoned in Australia and stick them in Alice Springs I reckon
instead of a race, maybe a proper road trip (no challenges or cheap vs expensive, more group activites along the way, combine it with a camping style video ran by Lannan and Lachlan). start it in perth and send it through to uluru, then up to the north of queensland. then for another video do a vlog trip style video with the whole group going through the gold coast, brisbane, sydney (maybe get a bathurst race in there or F1 in melbourne, a golf trip, amusement parks, just to mix in fun days out kinda vibes) and Melbourne. make that into a video more for them than for the views, and then at the end, they could do some sort of video starting there that ends with them flying out to other countries and do a holiday style video from there, maybe a bali and fiji video where they have equal budgets but experience different holidays aussies usually go on for cheap but not make it miserable type of cheap
My favourite was Storage Units. It was so different from all of the other Sidemen Sundays
Storage Units NEEDS a Part 2, the guest were on point, the boys were entertaining and involved, the host, Ethan was perfect, it was so entertaining 10/10 NEEDS a Part 2!
Ethan really cooked this year.
@@J55_ZRit felt like more than just a YT video while at the same time having that YT Sidemen video energy. I couldn’t tell you why, or point to any detail in the video. It was all just a virtually perfect blend. It absolutely needs a part 2
Only thing I didn't like was how obviously staged the units were. Needs to be more real
@@jeff-zg6jy It's impossible to make it real.
Try Not to Pee is an underrated gem
definitely!!! i’ve watched it like 4, 5 times now, extremely entertaining episode!
Only L for me is giving Beavo a feature
@@LeytonWalker-c5u he wasn't in try not to pee, you're thinking of the laughing one I think
@@Renoir. yeh read it wrong try not pee was decent
everyone hated it because of the title, but it was really a banger
Harry reading "u can not use a mode of transport more than once "gotta be moment of the year
My top 5:
1. Survive the Forest
2. Europe Holiday (Ibiza)
3. How many countries can you visit in 24 hours
4. Most Expensive Car Challenge
5. Winter Holiday
Honorable Mentions -> both Abandoned videos and Hunted Across the UK
I would say that Josh, Simon, and Ethan had a very good year overall
As for the worst 5, it would be
1. Kids & Grandparents brutally rate the Sidemen
2. Haunted House
3. RUclipsr Food
4. Fashion Show
5. Would I lie to you
my list would be exactly the same haha
My only except would be I quite liked the food one (not top 5, but not the worst), and would swap the expensive car challenge with the storage locker one
I like that
goated top worst list haha
You having 2 chefs cancel last minute makes so much sense as to why a few of you didn't seem right in that video
Best video for me is the JJ Negro Van Sunday video. That was a banger. Every moment on that was very memorable. From seperating the sidemen, to having Harry meet Behz to crack the code, to Viks kidnapping and having Toby to go rescue him, to having Simon think he was being tortured by flying him pass the villa, to JJ discovering his new hippie life in the bad team, just to many great moments in that video. It was amazing.
ayo
Seemed a bit too staged and scripted for me but was still a good watch x
i know josh has to back himself, but the forest video was the best of the year
ehhh everyone glazes the forest one because it was “wholesome” (like they do with all sidemen vids with wholesome bits in it 👀) i’m backing josh the top two is 100% the holiday vids. regardless camping one was still good asf
@ it was wholesome but I also really liked the structure and I can just recall more funny moments from it than any other vid. To each their own tho
@@imhaqueward tbh i only remember jj getting whatever item was on the island. it’s still a good vid simon did well
@@bvrtdllit was wholesome, but I think people like it because it was like everyone is together, instead of two different teams. Probably my favorite vid of the year
@jaspertipping9083 true. I like videos with teams so prob why I prefer the holiday ones!
The Vogue/runway one was one of my faves of the year, probably because it was most unexpected. I think it would have been better if the teams did more then one look each but i know it will never get a part 2 haha
The problem is a large portion of the audience didn’t give it a chance. It was a totally hilarious video and I wish more people appreciated it
@@ZachWilsonsMomsFriend Couldn't agree more to be honest!
they chose the worst possible themes, everything related to death/murders/ it was horrible to watch 🫣 also the crowd was extremely judgmental
@@Alacica the crowd definitely could’ve been better. That’s a fair assessment
It wasn’t the best but it didn’t deserve such low view count. I enjoyed their banter and creativity in the video. Sucks that it didn’t do better
Disgraceful there wasn't a Sidemen tierlist of these on Moresidemen
that list would be long af and have basically zero gta vids
What he’s saying is that they should have ranked the Sundays on moresidemen, not rank the moresidemen vids.
I don’t understand the fashion show hate. One of my top videos of the year for sure
Idk if it actually had hate. I think most people just didn’t care for the fashion show concept and didn’t give it a chance. It was disinterest that made it a huge L because as far as views it performed horribly. Idk if ppl actually complained about it
Same, i enjoy seeing them do things out of their comfort zone, though i do think the audience or rather, who was in the audience spoiled the end. I just think with a male majority audience, people saw 'fashion show' & didn't bother or were pre-disposed to dislike it.
@@unintentionaleffectiveness4393yeah. Didn’t see hate from people that watched it. Just think Josh talked a little too much about views of the video in his ranking rather than just the video itself. Models was a lot better than majority but because it has so little views he deems it as a failure
Faishon show was good
@@unintentionaleffectiveness4393 I haven't seen so much fan hate but the sidemen themselves seem to shit on this video constantly
Sidemen GTA in real life, around the launch of VI... find a large area to make a paintball set, one building has an escape room-esque puzzle failed checks mean the 'police' response time goes down. Three teams, two work together as cops as the third tries the heist, goal is to then escape with the loot. Could work in vehicles like go karts, opens up for backstabbing, hostage negotiation etc, maybe even have roles like one person is a safe cracker, one is a get away driver etc...
GTA is so core to the Sidemen origins would be great to see it in some way on the main channel and the launch of VI kinda feels like the best time
Yeah for example on 6:38 , I can watch all sidemen videos but the dating ones. I just cant stomach the 2nd hand cringe on any dating videos😂
The Vogue/runway video is actually quite good, was a very enjoyable watch
We need a silent library 3 next year
I get that views can sometimes give a misleading picture, but when people really like something, you can feel it. You can often tell who’s new and who’s been around for a while. Those who genuinely enjoy this type of content don’t always get the support they deserve. A lot of viewers tend to flock to what’s popular, while the ones who actually sit down and watch every video often discover those hidden gems that make each one special.
Honestly, I believe comments speak louder than views. I totally understand that you want as many people as possible to watch your videos so you can keep creating, but it feels like comparing your older content to what you’re doing now might be more about appealing to newer viewers and boosting those numbers.
I’m saying all this with love-there’s no hate here! I truly appreciate the content you’ve been putting out. But I think a lot of people want to see what you’re genuinely passionate about, rather than just what’s trending or seems to do well. It’s a bit of a sad truth that many viewers prioritize popular content over what’s real and authentic, especially on platforms like RUclips.
Try not to pee was a certi hood classic that vid was jokes ngl just pure banter
Top 3: Storage wars, Among Us Cooking, Try not to pee
Bottom 3: Kids and grandparents, Haunted house, Sidemen pop the balloon.
Special mention: Million pound drop 2. Love the concept but Harry was so ridiculously lazy with this one. Million pound drop 1 had a lot more effort put into it and it showed.
East filler for the new year: Sidemen eat hot wings 2. Don't have to overthink it, just a bunch of hot wings and some questions and watch JJ be JJ again.
Halloween idea: Sidemen Among Us at Dracula's Castle in Romania. The entire part of Europe could be an absolute gold mine for Sidemen content.
Completely agree
I’m one of the people that suggested the haunted video and it wasn’t great.
I was thinking more of The Boys style of haunted video but as a Sidemen Sunday (Theirs get between 12-30 million views). But it’s better when it’s at a more commonly known haunted location like The Ram Inn or jamaica inn. Which you can also add in brackets in the title.
And would be more better if it was focused on the investigation side more instead of being firmly based on entertainment.
I suggest researching the boys haunted videos to understand why
You can bring back Silent library and spill your guts
Hot ones as well although some may not want to redo it
Personally I enjoyed Pub Quiz more than Bingo among those 2 similar videos. The quiz was fun to watch because I was able to play along, whereas Bingo there’s no way for viewers to interact much
I liked sidemen survive 24 hrs in woods, we opened a 5 star restaurant was chaotic but I never laughed so much at a video. And my 3rd favorite is abandoned in Europe 2 I thought was so great tied with ibizia holiday
Exact top 3 for me as well.
2025 travel videos are about to go off. I’m looking forward to InSide season 2 as well.
Has there been any word on how that will go? I’m scared it’ll be like their documentary and won’t be on Netflix in the US
The licensed music really elevated the winter video!
I'm not a fan of the dating/tinder vids as it feels like they are for the younger audience.
I do like the hide and seeks though because most of the time it's just you guys and the guests just being themselves. Anytime you have lots of the extended sidemen like the recent pub quiz and bingo it's always a great time. The mystery boxes are great as well and anything with Stephen Tries hosting is great as well. Survive in a Forrest is the best vid of the year.
Portugal video was peak. When harry misread the rules😂😂
My top 5 would be:
1. Ibiza holiday
2. How far can you go in 24 hours
3. Abandoned in Portugal
4. How many countries in 24 hours
5. Abandoned in Ireland
And honorable mentions to: Storage Wars, the race in the most expansive country, the foot golf, the food truck war, the island hide and seek and the youtubers pub golf
Overall an amazing year with a lot of amazing Sidemen Sundays, you guys are always smashing it!!
Video ideas I came up with:
1. Sidemen Survive in a Castle for 24hrs (Include playing medieval games such as jousting with pool noodles, etc. Losing the games involves forfeits and they have to live as people in medieval times would’ve)
2. Sidemen Dress to Impress (Have a set that includes various clothing items, wigs, and accessories.

3. Sidemen Survive in Heels for a day (the sidemen split up into teams all wearing high heels and try to do a series of challenges EX: football, golf, etc all whilst in heels, whoever gets the most points wins)
4. Sidemen hide and seek in a castle (could use the same castle from my first suggestion so you could get two videos in the same place and invite other RUclipsrs for hide and seek)
5. The Sidemen Try To Play Rugby or American football ft. a famous rugby, or American football player (pretty self explanatory)
6. The Sidemen Try to Survive a Ballet class (bring in a strict ballet teacher and have all the sidemen try to take a class with them, I think it would be hilarious seeing Harry try to keep his balance, etc)
I’ll probably think of more later :))
thats shit noway people would click on it
every one of them is shit!
Also, why would they post an American football vid when it is an English RUclips channel?
Please don't think of more ideas
ideas are kinda shit(no offense)
I actually really liked the “last to leave football pitch” video because it almost gave me nostalgia vibes from old sidemen videos and the moments in that video ie. Josh’s freekick was sooo amazing
My fav video will always be the camping and I don’t know why but it always will I’ve watched at least 8 times
Loved both of Ethan’s especially the storage containers. It was so simple but hilarious
We need to see a holiday video in Australia with the 2 Aussies and another video like the cheap Christmas vs expensive Christmas
We definitely need a video of how sidemen videos get planned/organised from start to finish!!
Storage Units was my favourite - loved the twists, deffo do this again with bigger budget and same judges, good vibes all round.
An idea i would LOVE for them to do is Extreme Hide and Seek where they hire SFK people to blend them into backgrounds / crowds etc. Would be fun.
Fasion show was solid, but i do agree the first half made it an L overall, but the end was funny. Haunted house was the only vid i didn't watch, couldn't get through it... i am okay with scripted vids, but only when it's intertwined better, it just wasn't for me.
The pop the balloon could have been the same concept but at the end of each guys girls, any girl who made it on to the throne(even if dethroned), for lets say george’s round, then afterwards compete for his date, not just the last on the throne, so you can dethrone and such for content but not ruin the actually date content with george in this case
Sometimes to be honest and not just in a I miss being younger way. I kinda hate how big RUclips videos have to be or how big RUclipsrs feel they need to be. Whenever I watch the moresidemen videos those are chill and really entertaining, the main channel is becoming so mr beast-like
Josh I hope you know you’re the most undervalued asset in the Sidemen. I know you lot have meetings and vote on things but it’s clear to me how you’re directing operations as you have the ability to see what videos will be worth putting more time and effort into. I really look up to you man. Been a fan for over 10 years, thank you for all the laughs and vibes.
need more camping/survival videos e.g camping in iceland and a desert. would love to see the sidemen in more non-european countries so theres a different vibe
my top 3:
1. Survive for 24h in forest
2. Storage Wars
3. Hide and seek at westfield
Bottom 3 are:
3. Would I lie to you (i found this one different to the other gameshows)
2. Guess the criminal (carried by lizard guy)
1. Pop The Balloon (This is the worst Sidemen Video Ever Imo)
Agreed wt pop the balloon cuz it was js some OF models(reason for the views obv) and our boys werent that involved yk.
hide and seek in westfield is super underrated i kinda forgot how much better that was compared to the rest of the videos they did this year. probably not top 3 but definitely close
More cheap vs. expensive and more of all of you guys together this coming year please!
The Ibiza video was incredible all around.
& more Vik and Harry together, they are a killer duo.
If the majority is did the job then in my eyes the year was meh, also josh is ranking them on doing instead of watchability
Video suggestions:
-Sidemen cheap vs expensive boat trip (a proper deluxe yacht/cruise holiday of a couple days and the other team have to spend a whole day and night on a dingie/rowboat (obviously while being supervised in case shit goes south)).
-Sidemen fear factor.
-Sidemen poker/casino night.
-Sidemen legends of the hidden temple (you can do like an additional game before starting the actual games to define the order to pick a teammate (another 6 youtubers/celebrities) so its like 6 teams with each a sidemen and a celebrity and the remaining sidemen will host).
-Sidemen cheap vs expensive holiday asia edition (a team goes to dubai and another one goes to like mongolia or something)
You can also do video variations (like holiday, roadtrip, abandoned) on africa and eastern europe to say the most affordable places to go other than the ones you have already done.
Also do silent library, treasure hunt and spill your guts with youtubers
My Top 3:
1) How far can you travel in 24 Hours
2) 40.000 vs 400$ Holiday
3) Camping
My Bottom 3:
1) Kids and Grandparents
2) Hounted House
3) Boat-Trip
All in all a very enjoyable and great year of Videos imo :)
Can't wait ti see what you're about to Cook in 25!!

Can’t believe how good this is, you rock!
Would love to see illuminate in 2025….or maybe in 2012 but beggars can’t be choosers
Other than the Mark Henry clip, balloon dating was an L
Top 3:
Hunted - Bach was such a funny inclusion
Restaurant - chaos we love so much from among us in real life. Tobi was phenomenal in this video.
Camping - no brainer, 10/10 vibes
Storage unit was definetely a banger. WE NEED A PART 2 OF IT!!
maybe it’s really unpopular, but my favourite was actually the canal boat trip video!! loved the wholesome vibes, lots of moments had me laughing so hard :3 also the guests were great
Canal boats was my favorite of the year vibes were perfect
My favorite videos are by far the travelling / abandoned / holiday videos. Worst video (and potentially the worst Sidemen Sunday ever) was the Kids rating the Sidemen for me. Really liked the try not to pee video too, I think you're underrating it. All hide & seek videos this year have been really fun too, including the Harry's house one.
5: Europe holiday 2
4: abandoned in Portugal
3: storage wars
2: last to leave football
1: race across riches country
I loved the storage hunter vid , camping in the Forrest, hide and seek , there top vids also love the buying presents for each other videos (the chase too)
Hi Josh just thought of some American videos you could do.
One - how many states can you visit in 24 hours. 2 teams, challenges to earn money. Allowing all forms of travel.
Video idea 2- 4 corners monument.
Drop 4 teams of 2/3 (get RUclipsrs in it preferably Europe) each team gets dropped into the a section of a state and start with very basic gear and money (100 dollars) and have to make it to the monument. Make the challenges similar to the Portugal one (one form of transport, must eat a certain food in that state) maybe use American RUclipsrs ie Logan or speed but I think they may know how to get there I think the video will be better if no one has a clue!
Thanks for reading 👍🏼
Top 5 for me : 1) survive the forest 2) ibiza holiday 3) storage wars 4) how far you can travel in 24 hours 5) Abandoned in ireland
Worst 5: 1)kids/grandparents 2) youtuber food 3) haunted house 4) fashion show 5) would i lie to you
Abandoned in Portugal was my favourite, haunted was the worst. The Airbnb video you rated too high, the Stuttgart and Croatian teams had nothing to do, I loved all the other travel videos though. The success of the balloon video will hopefully mean more dating videos. I think you should bring back PubGolf, but with guests replacing the non-drinking Sidemen in foreign locations. The PubGolf videos were rated all-time favourites by Side+ members. Mystery boxes should be left in the past and maybe gameshows, unless you do something like The Amazing Race. So travel, abandoned, PubGolf, road trips, hide and seek in impressive locations, cheap v expensive football matches international versions and new concepts like storage wars.
I loved the Hide and Seek on an island, the camping video, and special mention for the abandoned in Ireland video as I'm Irish😂
I would love for you guys to do Extreme Tag again but do it in a different city and maybe with some rule changes to mix things up a bit
My top 5 are:
1. Survive the forest
2. Europe Ibiza holiday
3. How far can u travel in 24hrs & how many countries can u visit in 24hrs
4. hunted across the UK
5. most expensive car challenge
honourable mention: youtuber pub golf, the chase, winter holidays!
Obligatory, “the list is fucked”
13:53 I really liked this video. It was something different and JJ acting possessed was really funny.
Me too. The whole video felt like a sidemen spinoff, in a good way😂
Top 3: "How far can you get with you and Harry ending up in the Maldives" "Narrow Boats" "Storage Wars" Bottom 3: "Grandparents/kids" "Haunted House" "The last among us irl"
Also, I hope you one day get the chance to make something for a big tv production. I think you would excel at that!
Happy 2025 to everyone!
Genuinely i just love all the travel videos(Cheap vs Expensive/Races/Holidays/Hunted/Abandoned) especially when they are 2 hours+ long so we def need more of those next year
Tbh I just do not like the among us irls, don’t get me wrong I have watched most of them (haven’t watched the latest) and they do have their good moments (like Ethan on the stairs, the locking in the “med bay scan”) but something about them just doesn’t hit 🤷🏻♀️
I dont think irl among us could be better then 'Did the job'
For me the top three videos this year were try not to laugh, winter holiday, and camping.
Josh as the rat in Sidemen Among Us IRL was hands down my favorite part of any video! I agree with your ranking of the Michelin Star Cooking videos.
Cheap vs expensive Spain was the best but gifting presents was definitely underrated
Winter holiday easily best of the year. My favourite oat
You host some of the best Sidemen videos every year! The abandoned videos, race videos and cheap vs expensive holidays are always some of the best ones.
This may have been the best year for Sidemen Sundays imo. Great guests, great concepts, and great moments. Only a few stand out to me as stinkers, like the Haunted House. Overall, an amazing year
I can't decide a top 3, but I think my top 5 (in no particular order) are the Ibiza holiday, Winter holiday, Camping, and both Abandoned videos. Honourable mention to the Island Hide n Seek.
Worst 3 videos of the year were Haunted House (probably my least favourite Sidemen video ever that I've watched), Pop the Balloon (I thought it was an incredibly shit concept and without Mark Henry and Tism it would have been worse than Haunted), and the Kids/Old People vid
Honestly try not to pee was one of the best videos. Super random concept, but turned out to be really good.
Top 3
1. 24 hour camping/survival
2. Running a restaurant
3. Ibiza
Bottom
Videos where other people try to be as loud as possible, or in other ways try too hard to make themselves noticed. I watch The Sidemen for The Sidemen, not for Ishowspeed or Danny Aarons or Joe Weller or whoever.
fashion show was actually pretty cool
The chase was one of the best sidemen videos of the yeareasily
Top three is 1. Try not to pee 2. Last to leave the football pitch 3. Sidemen 11 year gift
Honorable mention: Among us cooking challenge
Try not to pee was such a good video in my opinion. I loved seeing all the guys together just having fun, those are def my fav types of videos
1.)Most Countries in 24 hours
2.)Camping
3.)Storage Wars
4.)Spain Holiday
5.)Ethan's Road Trip/Abandoned in Ireland
Another version of camping would be good maybe two teams to mix it up with some guests and they have to make there camp type activities like build shelter, catch food and then end of the video is you bring a survival pro who rates the two bases based on like a couple of things.
try not to pee was so good its top 2 tiers for me
Top 5
1.forest
2.Europe Holiday
3.both pub vids
4.among us chaos edition
5.last to pee
Hounarable mentions
Storage wars
Foodtruck roadtrip
Among us cooking
W2S nd mall hide n seek
Guess the crinimal
Next year needs to include a climbing challenge of some sort (Kilimanjaro/Everest Base Camp), a trip to Australia with Lachlan and Lannan as a sort of team guide and something like visit as many stadiums as you can in 24 hours and do challenges at each including furthest distance away from London challenge
The one when your rat is the best one fs
34:47 Bingo you're thrown into it and feels chaotic for the first 10 mins I didn't bother watching
Based on how I found videos enjoyable to watch there is a lot of difference from what Josh ranked them
Solid year. My top 5
-How Many Countries can you visit
-Survive the Forest
-Stadium/Island Hide & Seek
-Mobile Home Roadtrip
-Try Not to Pee
Absolutely love any travel style video.
The Harry and Jj moment in the haunted house got me crying 😂
I hope they go to Portugal again this year
fav video was the camping one it was so funny.
worst was probably haunted house
Survive in a forest,food truck and storage wars were my favourite and haunted house,grandparents VS kids and boat trip were my least favourite
Top 3: RUclipsr Hide & Seek On An Island, Chaos Mode Among Us and RUclipsr Hide & Seek In A Stadium.
Bottom 3: Kids & Grandparents Rank The Sidemen, Haunted House and Fashion Show.
pop the balloon was shit tbh. The concept to begin with just isn't very good
I think a good concept for getting hunted across europe is that whenever you get to a certain country you get some kind of reward for example: the other team can't move for 15 minutes, the hunters can only walk backwards for 10 minutes, you get to see the location of the hunters for a said amount of time. and to make the rewards more intriguing to get you can set it that the further the country is away the better the rewards may be.
Top 3
1. eu cheap vs expensive
2.Who can go the farthest
3.Sidemen camping
Bottom 3
1.The Fashion one
2.The kids one
3.The Christmas cook off
