Family Friendly's extra comedy means longer videos and looser deadlines
A release-schedule update brought far more comments than usual, with viewers discussing longer uploads and the wait to finish them.
Why this story? The video drew 1,113 comments in its first day, 13 times a normal first day on this channel (84).
Thank you guys ✊🏿
Next story: Family Friendly turns its stranger pitches into playable video games
Family Friendly's writing sessions have produced an awkward editing problem: more comedy than the team planned to fit into a video.
In the short update "Thank you guys ✊🏿", the host explains that upcoming uploads have stretched to around eighty minutes, well beyond the group's usual three-quarter-hour format. Finishing that much material can push a release back by hours or a couple of days.
The practical change is that viewers should no longer expect a temporary social-media story explaining each delay. If an upload misses Friday, the host says, it will arrive over the weekend or early the following week.
That explanation prompted more than 1,100 comments on its first day, over thirteen times the usual response to a Family Friendly Short, even though views were ordinary for the format. Viewers are discussing the longer running times, saying they can wait for the edits and joking about giving the team more time to cook. One recurring point is that a longer gap matters less to them than letting the group finish the video.
For a channel whose recent projects include pitching deliberately offensive video games to strangers, this is a look at the less visible work behind the joke. The host says the team has put earnings from its videos toward new computers to speed up rendering. He ends the update by heading straight back to work.

The numbers
The unusual response was in the comments, rather than the views: this schedule update drew a much busier conversation than a typical Family Friendly Short.
