asking seniors what they paid in rent
What did people pay for a place to live decades ago? That question is the center of NowThis's week. "asking seniors what they paid in rent" went up on September 27 and has passed 11,000 views. Three days in, it is still gathering views faster than anything else on the channel.
The rest of the eight uploads lean playful. Two belong to the same idea, people reading for famous parts: "andrew reads for dolly parton" opened well two days earlier and has since calmed down, while "zach reads for noah in the notebook" took on the romantic lead of the Nicholas Sparks story and made a brisk start in its first nine hours. There is also a club-dating short with @tinashenow and a spotted-on-the-street feature on Aliyah's Interlude, billed in the title as the it girl from Atlanta.
The subscriber count held still, with no movement either way. Among the news broadcasters of similar size, most had a softer stretch. ITV News ran at about half its usual daily views and AccuWeather at a fraction of its norm, so a sleepy spell was common company. For NowThis, the rent question did the heavy lifting, and a Notebook read is the next one showing some pace.
