  • No, no, don't do that.

  • - ♪ Faded, faded, faded, baby ♪ - I just want to be him so bad.

  • I should just delete my YouTube channel now.

  • I have seen so many GIFs, and I thought, "I can get

  • through life without this." But here I am!

  • Will wins.

  • - Will's the best. - (Rafi) They never announced the winner.

  • (Benny) There was no winner. They just moved on.

  • What's the point of that? That's awful!

  • It's like yoga.

  • Like, you can't win at yoga. That's why I don't do it.

  • (audience cheers wildly)

  • I used to come home every day from school and watch this.

  • (Zack) Bayside High...

  • Oh, he still looks so bae.

  • Holy crap!

  • Definitely had a photo of her in my room.

  • You and I have to talk.

  • I'm pregnant.

  • (gasps sarcastically)

  • (Belding) Hey, hey! What is going on here?

  • I see Belding!

  • (Slater) Jimmy, he's gonna be leaving Bayside.

  • (chuckles) God, Principal Belding.

  • (Belding) Just stay here.

  • How many kids watching this would not even understand?

  • (Fallon) Friends forever?

  • (everyone) Friends forever!

  • Perfect!

  • My childhood memory bag.

  • ♪ (dramatic chord) ♪

  • (Finebros) Do you watch The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on TV?

  • Not regularly.

  • I do not.

  • I don't.

  • Who watches TV anymore?

  • (Finebros) What did you think of that lip syncing battle video?

  • I really enjoyed the lip sync battle.

  • It just made me want to sing, which I think I did.

  • Sorry, world.

  • I mean, Will crushed it, obviously.

  • I consider myself a pretty good lip syncer.

  • I did that also in the very, very early days of the channel.

  • When I look into your eyes

  • So I approve of their skills.

  • (Finebros) And how do you think they did in recreating

  • - Saved by the Bell? - So good.

  • I don't think anybody who watched that not love it

  • Just Zack Morris showing up was probably the best part.

  • I thought it was good. They all looked pretty great.

  • Mostly. Most of them.

  • They did a good job in re-creating Bayside,

  • and the fact that they were able to get so many people together

  • under the same roof, at the same time,

  • that's impressive.

  • (Finebros) So these two videos we showed you came out in the same week.

  • Combined, it had over 60 million views on YouTube during that time.

  • Holy [bleep].

  • (Finebros) What is it that makes these videos that are clips

  • from a TV show do those kinds of numbers on YouTube?

  • Oh, celebrities.

  • People like seeing celebrities do stuff that's not normal,

  • that celebrities won't do 'cause they're like, "I'm a celebrity.

  • This is beneath me."

  • You have the super pool of celebrity, you have the super pool

  • of nostalgia, and I see how that's appealing to a lot of people.

  • Is it exciting or thought-provoking content?

  • No! Us YouTubers have been doing this stuff for so long.

  • (Finebros) How do you feel, as a creator, when you put out a video

  • and then you might be on a list on YouTube somewhere,

  • but you're being beaten out by Fallen, or Kimmel, or Ellen,

  • compared to how you feel if you're being beaten out

  • by a fellow YouTube creator.

  • Honestly, it's happened to me. All the time.

  • You know, I put out a new video and I'm like, "Damn!

  • I would've been number one."

  • To me, it's kind of the same thing. It's like Vevo being a part of YouTube.

  • Obviously, the top 100 YouTubers includes tons of Vevo accounts.

  • I mean, it's fair game. Everybody can make a YouTube account.

  • Why not Jimmy Fallon?

  • There's a little part, I think as a YouTuber,

  • where it's like, "Hey, this is our space."

  • You know? We were the ones that were here to build this space.

  • Now it's like, "Oh, the TV people are coming in."

  • The silver lining of that is that it shows you how powerful YouTube

  • and this medium is now.

  • (Finebros) Do you think that when they go viral on YouTube

  • it brings viewership back to their television show?

  • Not so. I think it hits a new audience, people that don't really

  • watch television. Young kids who have access

  • to iPads, but not really the remote control for television.

  • I don't even know what channel that's on or time it's on.

  • I've seen a lot of these clips. I've laughed at a good many,

  • but has it ever inspired me to go watch The Tonight Show? No!

  • (Finebros) Due to what Fallon and the other talk shows

  • have done, they are talked about in the media a lot as innovators

  • in new media, and they even are involved in things like YouTube Rewind.

  • They put all the talk show hosts in there.

  • Do you feel they deserved to be considered

  • part of the innovation of new media?

  • Uh, no.

  • No, I think that in their media, they should be like,

  • "I can't believe we didn't do this before."

  • It's a natural progression. It makes sense that you would do it,

  • but is it super innovative? I think it's just the way things are going.

  • I want to say that they're innovating, but more so they're keeping up.

  • They know that if they didn't, then they would be left behind.

  • (Finebros) What's your prediction for the future of how television

  • programs will utilize YouTube to evolve their entertainment?

  • Do you think there's more coming?

  • Absolutely. Yeah, the future of YouTube's gonna become

  • even more corporate, in my opinion.

  • YouTube is becoming the new television.

  • TV's on its way out, you know, as far as cable and stuff like that.

  • It'd be kind of silly for them to not use this as a footing

  • to get in there and make content on the web that's not on TV.
