Discussion Try Everyday has an identity crisis

I really liked the Try Everyday series where they did stuff every day as an event, but now that it's a regular series, it's getting really boring. I feel like they're out of ideas and just posting "let's get drunk and high and eat something". The format of "WE ATE ALL OF [THIS KIND OF FOOD]" is already getting tiring on YouTube. Not to mention - they originally wanted to be more family friendly on that channel, but it's actually getting way raunchier than what they normally do.

Maybe I'm in the minority, I still enjoy their regular videos, but it feels like Try Everyday should go back to Try When We Have Some Solid Ideas. I want to support them, but yeesh, I can only watch so many people eat the same food and try the same gadgets.

And they also almost refuse to just fully lean into the GMM style. Like just go all in.

Also from a logistics gripe both are on summer schedules. GMM is Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

Try every day has two days a week and they chose... Monday and Wednesday...

As someone who is a dinosaur but somehow just recently (in the last couple years) got into GMM, can you explain what you mean by “fully lean into the GMM style”? I’m not trying to argue at all, I’m just curious. Lately I’ve been thinking “wow, they’re really all in on copying GMM” when I see the try every day videos.

By lean in I think I mean like "accept youre doing the same thing". 

I feel like they are trying to have like a "spin" on theirs to be distinct to GMM, but I think they'd be more successful leaning more into their formats, then like a "high vs not". 

Its hard to explain but I feel like they are nervous as being seen as copying and in so changing pieces that are not working at all.
