A pair of glasses, a missed forehead and nineteen million views for 5PM
The short about a boyfriend who takes his glasses off at the table led fifteen uploads, as the skit channel closed in on a million subscribers.
5PMStory of Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
He needs glasses for sure🤣
On an ordinary day 5PM, a channel of short scripted skits, draws something like eleven million views. It is a big baseline, and this week the channel ran a little above it, gathering close to 87 million views in seven days. Among similar-sized channels in its stories and curiosities group, that was the most of anyone, ahead of Gravity Dreams, which had a strong week of its own.
Fifteen shorts went up, and one carried the rest. "He needs glasses for sure🤣" is a dinner-table gag: a man without his glasses tries to share food with his girlfriend, who sits across from him, and aims for the wrong part of her face. Six days on it has passed 19 million views. The comment section has settled into a running joke about how close he came to trouble under her stare, and a sharper question keeps coming up: how could he spot the glasses themselves so easily?
Behind it, "It was just a social experiment👀" is still gathering pace at four days old, and a car short about the reaction when someone else takes the wheel had a strong first day. The newest, "he learned something new💯," is only a day old and already moving quickly.
The about page is clear that every story here is fictional, written for entertainment. The audience grew alongside the views: about 30,000 new subscribers this week, which leaves 5PM roughly six thousand short of a million.
