Auntie Charli's grown-up teenagers make a dash for the swings
The playground skit passes eight million views in a five-upload week that also brings naming jokes and scary confessions.
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.
How you see 16-year-olds at 8 Vs. At 16 #comedy #skit #relatable #funny
Juice boxes, silly phone videos and a race to the swings: being sixteen looks rather different once you've arrived there. Auntie Charli plays both sides of that discovery in "How you see 16-year-olds at 8 Vs. At 16 #comedy #skit #relatable #funny", the week's most watched new upload, with roughly 8.3 million views.
The sketch begins with a younger child's admiration for seemingly grown-up teenagers. Then the perspective switches, and their impressive maturity lasts only until someone suggests the playground. Charli plays all the roles, including the younger observer whose final verdict is a flat "Nevermind." Viewers keep returning to that delivery, while others recall discovering that adolescence doesn't end the appeal of swings.
Growing up supplied much of the week's material. "Parent's naming kids over the years #comedy #pov #skit #funnyvideo" is currently drawing the most daily views on the channel, with the teenage sketch and "Halloween as a kid vs now #comedy #skit #relatable #funnyvideo #pov" next. A nighttime childhood comparison followed, before "Reading Your Most TERRIFYING Confessions…" switched from short sketches to reading viewers' submitted creepy stories.
Across the channel, the week brought about 32 million views and continued subscriber growth, although daily viewing is a little below its usual level. That's a substantial week among nearby sketch channels: Godfrey Twins also drew a large weekly audience, while The Warp Zone had a quieter one. For Charli, the strongest new hook was the gap between looking grown-up and actually wanting another turn on the playground.
