Smosh is an American sketch comedy YouTube channel created by Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox. In 2002, Padilla created a website named “smosh.com” for making flash animations, and he was later joined by Hecox. Soon afterward, they began to post videos on Smosh’s YouTube channel in the autumn of 2005 and quickly became one of the most popular channels on the site. As of March 2019, the Smosh channel has over 9 billion video views and over 25 million subscribers, putting it just outside of the top 50 most subscribed channels on YouTube.

One of Smosh’s earliest videos, “Pokémon Theme Music Video,” was released on November 28, 2005. It followed the same style as their other earlier videos, featuring the duo lip-synching the original English theme song for the Pokémon anime. However, the video instantly became much more popular than any of their other videos; over the course of its lifetime, it gained over 24 million views, becoming the most-viewed video on all of YouTube at that time. It held that title until it was dethroned by Judson Laipply’s “Evolution of Dance”. It was later removed for copyright.

In January 2010, Smosh launched the “Smosh Pit” feature, a blog that consists of various pieces of pop-culture trivia, and written comedy. In addition, 2010 saw the channel launch 3 different Smosh-based web series: Ian Is Bored, which started as a collection of comedic videos by Hecox, but then turned into both Hecox and Padilla making vlog like videos, and renamed Smosh Is Bored; Ask Charlie, where people ask Charlie, from their January 2010 Charlie the Drunk Guinea Pig video, random questions; and Lunchtime with Smosh, a comedy series featuring Smosh getting and eating food from various places, and answering Twitter questions from their fans on Twitter. Some of Smosh’s most popular video series include Pokémon in Real Life and If ____ Was Real. Also in early 2010, Smosh created the “iShut Up App” for Android phones as part of a Google sponsorship; it eventually made its way to the iTunes app store.
