We explore YouTube Rewind’s humble beginning as a top 10 of 2010’s most popular videos. Rather than a cameo-filled remix of the year gone by, 2010 YouTube Rewind: Year in Review was a very matter-of-fact countdown more akin to Funniest Home Videos than later YouTube Rewind installments.
It’s a timely episode given the list features recently-covered creators like Schmoyoho, The Key of Awesome, and The Annoying Orange. We chat about how legacy media like television ads and film trailers couldn’t make today’s list, Max confuses one of the three late night hosts called Jimmy, and we go down a Cody Simpson rabbit hole.
