Michael Reeves showed up??
Someone needs a problem fixed, a phone call goes out, and Michael Reeves arrives at the door. For a creator known for building robots with deliberately ridiculous purposes, it sounds like a plausible assignment. Smosh's sketch has a much shorter job description: introduce yourself, then leave when yelled at.
"Michael Reeves showed up??" was the most-watched of Smosh's two uploads this week. The cameo needs barely a dozen seconds to get through its setup and rejection. In the comments, viewers ask which longer video it came from, request a full collaboration and joke about having used up their annual allotment of Reeves appearances. Others turn the conversation toward wanting more Ian Hecox and Anthony Padilla sketches together.
The newer upload, "He's all set.", has reached roughly 270,000 views and is currently drawing the most daily viewing of any Smosh video. The older "I think he needs help..." also remains active, drawing slightly more views per day than the Reeves cameo despite being six weeks old.
Across the channel, daily viewing is about a third below its usual level, while the subscriber count was unchanged over the week. That quieter spell sits alongside a much busier week for fellow comedy channel Speed McQueen; BuzzFeedVideo's daily viewing, meanwhile, is close to its usual rhythm. Smosh's own newest material keeps things compact: two uploads, with an unexpected guest needing only a doorway to make his entrance and exit.
