Reaction video? So a video of someone watching a video, so the viewer can see how they react?
Have you literally just bought your first PC, gone to some evening classes and got the Internet? Shmee hasn't just invented this style of video - there's tons of them! They're a piece of piss and super cheap to make (even better in Tim's case!) and can get loads of views, so I can see why they're popular. Some of the posts on here just make the authors seem old and out of touch with the internetz.

Yes, this GT reaction vid was seriously ropey, but it won't put me off future Shmee videos. Why would it?

Please tell me I'm not the only person on here who doesn't understand why anyone would want to watch that.
So I'm guessing you're not a fan of Gogglebox? hehe

Saw Shmee's McLaren parked up on King's Road on Friday night; stunning thing in the flesh.

Just watched it and I can't see why the negativity. I'm a 40 something ph'r but still get how social media/youtube has such a varying appeal. That means not everything will suit your tastes. Yes it's a paid placement...so what? What it has done is get people talking, and the grand tour is at the root of it. That to me is the PR has had an effect.
Keep it up shmee, you'll never please every one. That goes for any business.

To a certain extent, it doesn't matter why they want to watch it. The point is, they do, them watching it is what generates the revenue, so you knock out a similar video to capitalise on it.

Remember this ad? It's pretty much how the game's played on youtube for this stuff:

Are you sure you had your eyes open and speakers turned on?

Just went to have a look at it to see what you meant, what a weird little line - I can't even decide what I make of it. Thanks for the heads up.

Outside Line by Richard Meadon - EVO said:
The year is 2018 and Hollywood has released a remake of Bullitt to mark the movie's 50th anniversary. Desperate to remind audiences that Steve McQueen's gritty character, Frank Bullitt, drove a Mustang in the original film, Ford's produce placement marketeers have paid millions to ensure YouTuber Shmee150 - in his debut movie role - also rides in a Stang. Only this time, in a contemporary twist aimed at showcasing the Blue Oval's commitment to a self-driving future, the Mustang is autonomous.

Like the original, the redux's pivotal moment is the car chase. But instead of stalking our hero in a black Dodge Charger, the baddies summon a driverless Uber and shadow McQueen, sorry, Shmee150, around San Francisco absolutely on the (speed) limit. The 'chase' climaxes when a pedestrian steps into the road, triggering the Uber's moral algorithm and sending the baddies to a high-voltage end as they veer helplessly into a Tesla Supercharger station.

What does Shmee say to his girlfriend when he wants her to go down on him... "Suck my Shmick Shmitch!" I believe she also works as a CEO of the just announced Shmuseum.

Saw the latest LT video. Really do love that colour and wheel combination the more I see it.

However, I did notice at around the 2:40 the driver seat bolster looks to be quite badly worn or perhaps the fabric isn't fitting the seat as well as it should. I had similar issues with my car and it's currently back with a firm specialist having new seat covers fitted. Could be the lighting but that fabric definitely looks like a bad fit. Anyone else see this or is it just me? Screenshot below:

You must be a Shmoupie, or a Shmanboy?

I think that oversteps the mark.

Back on topic, Ive recently been watching Joe Achilles videos on youtube, which while very BWM heavy in content, are really insightful. To me, thats one of the better channels of its type.
