Kassem, Very funny video which.. darkened a bit there as it went along, escalating from 'playful', seeing what you could get away with, towards breaking bad level entitlement, with a posible series of petty crimes at the end there. I'm hoping it doesn't add up for you! Haha, Happy to see a new one of these! I also have a few gray hairs now... BTW I know you are a man of utter confidence, and don't need to hear it yourself. But when Jessica Nigri is beginning to espouse on how you helped her out btw. Plz don't cut her off... I think she choked you out, because you interrupted her, preventing her from a chance to give you some roses, and for us from receiving the wholesome and nostalgic content we crave!
When the world needed him the most, he returned Feels just like yesterday that I saw him and Jessica Nigri just starting to get popular, what a chad this dude is
Yo, please make the "California On" series public again. It was a big comfort show for me, I used to rewatch it every year. Have really fond memories of watching your videos back in 2012. So many iconic moments and people. I'll never forget the "guard dog spirit animal guy" and the sir elton john cameo. I get that perhaps you don't identify with the videos anymore, but you shouldn't be ashamed of them. Even if you are no longer that person, they hold a special place in the hearts of thousands and in yours.
@@adaml7156 He explained on Ep 79 - Pajama Pants that it was purely personal and he simply found them cringy and some even offensive. I get it. And yet, true development would be acknowledging all of that but still proudly displaying them. Those videos are gems and many have incredibly wholesome moments.
@@TheDanorte I don't think "true development" would be displaying something you yourself find to be offensive after growing. That would just be defiance in the voice of reason. Why would he willfully put himself in the firing line for literally no other reason than to "proudly display" things he's ashamed of? That makes absolutely no sense.
@@DoobieFerguson Owning your mistakes means rising above the shame of having done them. Not that the videos were mistakes, they just reflected a time we were younger and stupider. What exactly is he risking by showing them? He's a millionaire, he literally doesn't have to work anymore. I stand by what I said. True development is not hiding your past imperfections. A lot of us really miss those videos, a lot of them were incredibly wholesome.
@@DoobieFerguson Your opinion is not a developed one. It's regressive and immature. Why would he wilfully put himself "in the firing line"? Maybe 'cause there's a shit ton of people who want to see them, and making hundreds to thousands to potentially even more people happy (even if briefly) means much more to a mature mind than hiding them because of insecurity over a person he literally is not anymore and has grown past anyway. EDIT: I didn't fully go through all the comments, and I see OP already responded to you with more or less the same sentiment as me. It still baffles me you needed to even be told all that, to be honest, but maybe you'll actually take it in considering it was said twice.
Why did a bunch of comic con interviews just make me reflect upon how much has changed in my life over the past ten years. This was an odd experience, thanks kassem
Kassem is the 🐐 TH-camr imo. One of those dudes who you just want to be around because of how infectious his energy is. Putting the "TH-camr" label aside, his comedic timing is just generally in a class with the greatest comics of all time. When I think of how at ease and naturally funny Dave Chapelle is, I also think of Kassem in that same way. Absolute legend. Your videos always, always put a smile on my face and that hasn't changed. Feel lucky to have watched you since the beginning my dude 🙏🏻
ALL THE STARS ARE HERE!!!!! I miss Kassemg, this gives me the warm and tinglies. Brings me back to a place in my life when things were much more simple.
G4 got me really into nerd culture back in the day, then Kassem made nerd culture fun a witty. The fact that they came together is awesome, and I couldn't have thought of a better outcome. G4 showed me Akira for the first time, a bunch of Kung-Fu films and Bruce Lee movies. Attack of the Show was amazing
When I saw this in my recommended, I legitimately had to double take and make sure I saw the date/time uploaded right. It said “13 hours ago” and thought it said “13 years ago” at first. I miss your content man! This was great!
How does Kassem only have 2M subscribers?? He's been on youtube forever and was even on transformers! Which was a cool surprise cuz I've been watching Kassem since 2008 or 2009 I don't remember. I just remember binge watching all the california on videos and would watch his vlogs too from which I discovered shay carl and started watching shaytards for years to come. Glad to know you're still here, kassem. I love you.
Crazy I was literally just thinking about the late 2000s-early 2010s era of TH-cam. Was wondering where Kassem has been! He was a pillar of the platform back then.
Well there was that one girl that kept having meltdowns over reality, Frosk or whatever. They messed up by letting that clown talk and agreeing with her
10:16 would have bee nice for you to stay around at the LAN a bit and cover what we're doing to keep LAN gaming alive. You didn't seem interested in chatting to LAN staff though.
I can't believe this is up, I come back to watch california on from time to time and when you removed them i was devastated. This feels like a gift from the universe. You're one of my favorite Humans Kassem. Been watching since i was 14, I'm now 27 with the same sense of Humor.
i've been waiting for this for so long, and watched a lot of the older videos now I'm so happy to see his return even his jokes are on point Kassem G welcome back,
Thanks for watching for all these years! If you guys want a more daily cadence join us M-Th on twitch.tv/kassemg
You don't understand how GASSED I am to see this pop up in my youtube feed. I'm getting flashbacks to when you and LAWHF ran the youtube comedy scene.
Thank you, for this. So good.
please bring going deep back
I’m just stoked to see JON FUCKIN NA back in the mix too

i feel 5 years younger watching Kassem again^^
no wait...10years^^
i feel 55 years younger
@@nochsoeiner yup lol thats how long
Yoooo same here ! Its been a while
seeing kassem with those grey hairs has the exact opposite effect on me.
Thanks kassem, this made me feel like I was back in middle school and not a depressed 26 year old with massive debts
Hey, man. All you gotta do is chop your bits off and take pills. Then you'll be happy. Vote blue!
Real
Dont worry man strong will and mind will get u thru anything. U got this brother
Dude really hit spot on
Real
When the world needed him the most, he returned
Feels just like yesterday that I saw him and Jessica Nigri just starting to get popular, what a chad this dude is
@Life as we know it he's still rich your poor? or your sense of humours changed IDK ❤ no pajama pants pod plug 😔
@Life as we know it Oh i see the problem. You're an idiot.
He is the sigma male incarnate
@Life as we know it every1 else was saying similar sh1t, guess I'm a follower
I am so happy to see this. We always wanna see you Kassem. Definitely the good content side of TH-cam, one of and still my big inspirations
Man I forgot how much I missed these. Don’t ever change Kassem
Love you, Kassem. I couldn’t stop smiling throughout this entire video. ❤️
This makes me realize how much Kassem G paved the way for Channel 5/Andrew Callagan and street interviews.. feel like I’m 14 again watching this!
I started watching kassem when I was in high school.. now I'm a broke 30 year old living with my parents
Relatable lol 🫂
You are not alone
Yep me too mate
Shout out
So was I three years ago. Now I'm still broke but living with my gf! Moving up in the world!

I’d echo that statement, especially as someone young in Southern California at the time, it was a unique experience for sure.

I will never unsubscribe from this channel. I just hope the need to build twitch continues to forces him to put more videos up here. 🤣
Kassem's just like my father, comes back into my life once I'm an adult
And doesn't look a day older... God damn what a legend
This is the last channel I expected to see in my sub feed, but damn am I happy about it!
Why did a bunch of comic con interviews just make me reflect upon how much has changed in my life over the past ten years. This was an odd experience, thanks kassem
Here to pay homage to one of the absolute OG's of TH-cam. You are a real one, Kassem. Thanks for all the lovely memories.
OMG it has finally returned! I f-ing love you Kassem 🥳
Never change Kassem we missed you so much
Thank you for this Kassem. This made me feel very nostalgic. Loved watching these every year as a kid.
I've been watching your videos since I was 9, I'm so happy you uploaded as I've just got out of prison

You deserve all the gifts given to you, Kassem! Now, time to rewatch all your old videos!
seems to me that a good amount of the old content is g one to private... sad :(
He hid it or removed it all because it was "offensive". Basically, he actually is G4. Hope he has knee pads.
He’s definitely holding back on his comedy, I miss old TH-cam :,)
Fuck these vids used to be so amazing, it's nice to get a new one, I'm still subscribed and so are 2million others! We miss you bro.
This video opened some kind of door to a hidden-away part of my youth with happy flashbacks. Glad to see you again Kassem!
HOLY SHIT THE KING IS BACK
Bruh he deserves it. Kassemg is a legend. I would pay to watch "California On" again.
That and askassem for me (assgasm)
ALL THE STARS ARE HERE!!!!!
I miss Kassemg, this gives me the warm and tinglies. Brings me back to a place in my life when things were much more simple.
The world is healing! He's back baby!
It's 2023, I am 28 and watching California on. Fantastic.
G4 got me really into nerd culture back in the day, then Kassem made nerd culture fun a witty. The fact that they came together is awesome, and I couldn't have thought of a better outcome. G4 showed me Akira for the first time, a bunch of Kung-Fu films and Bruce Lee movies. Attack of the Show was amazing
morgan webb was a babe too
Brooooo I love that he's just kept the exact same video style as the old days. Total nostalgia trip, much love kassem.
I am so happy you are posting again. I kept you in my subs all these years hoping this would happen! KASSEMG IS THE GOAT 🎉
When I saw this in my recommended, I legitimately had to double take and make sure I saw the date/time uploaded right. It said “13 hours ago” and thought it said “13 years ago” at first.
I miss your content man! This was great!
Was literally telling my friends the other day how much I miss kassem. you returned when we needed you most.
Wow, one of the classics is back. Great to see Kassem again. Now you just need to start making "Going Deep" again.
what a throw back! makes me feel like i'm back in college!

MY MAN IS BACK!!!
Ive missed you man! Every few years i go back and watch all the California Ons! Also, JOHN FUCKING NA!!!!!
Cool to see the G4 merch got so much recognition after all these years, sad to see it shut down shortly afterwards tho.
Well there was that one girl that kept having meltdowns over reality, Frosk or whatever. They messed up by letting that clown talk and agreeing with her
The Pepsi opening is quite possibly the best way to open lmao
That's Kassem for you a straight savage. Ah how I missed him.
0:26 The bald spot censor!!!! You did him dirty!! 🤣
Perfectttttt. Now let's rebuild this channel again. ❤️
Rebuild what? He has over 2 million subscribers 😂
@@alexcorona You've had your channel for 15 years. Don't be stupid.
I missed tf outta your comic con vids Kassem so great to still see you doing them
Kassem
Let us freaking go!
@@KassemG no!
Kassem doesnt exist to be easy on the eyes for you
Wow, this felt like time traveling. Mainly because Kassem aged 15 years in 5 years.
Kassem walked so Channel 5 could run
When we needed him most, he came back.
I cannot describe how excited I felt seeing this pop up in my recommended.
Bring back all the California On videos! Those were my favorite thing on the God damn platform.
Kassem dude you still have it lmao the Pepsi gag from the start I knew this would be a classic
10:16 would have bee nice for you to stay around at the LAN a bit and cover what we're doing to keep LAN gaming alive. You didn't seem interested in chatting to LAN staff though.
Literally cheered when he said I’m in the thick of it
FINALLY!!! You made me laugh so hard back in middle/high school 😢 felt great nostalgia watching this
AND THE LEGEND RETURNS!!!
I can't believe this is up, I come back to watch california on from time to time and when you removed them i was devastated. This feels like a gift from the universe. You're one of my favorite Humans Kassem. Been watching since i was 14, I'm now 27 with the same sense of Humor.
I didn’t think going onto TH-cam, I would see KassemG in my recommendation, BUT my god, I needed it! 👏🏼 Welcome back Kassem!!
Lol the G4 logo and shirt. Thank God you're back
I used to watch Kassem in my teens, it feels so nostalgic to get one last episode in before I turn 30 next month.
This put the biggest smile on my face, made my morning Kassem
i've been waiting for this for so long, and watched a lot of the older videos now I'm so happy to see his return even his jokes are on point
Kassem G welcome back,
i was thinking about how much i loved your vids a week ago AND WERE FINALLY BACK
its great to see you bring back the comic con videos again
it take me back to the good old days of youtube
He's an acid tongued Arab in our hearts
G4 died a second time so Kassem could come back a second time. Worth it.
Oh man how I’ve missed this. Please bring back the bangers and Unarchive your going deep videos 😢😂
Dude it was awesome seeing you on again....brought back some good memories and laughs. I used to watch you while i was working lol
Kassem made TH-cam for me. First 'youtuber' I watched religiously. I'll always be a fan. Love this.
WE NEED THE OLD EPISODES UPLOADED SOMEWHERE! MY POOR, EMPTY CHILDHOOD!
Holy guacamole. The man, the myth, the LEGEND is back!! Feels like I'm in high school all over again. haha
waking up and watching california on like its 2012 all over again. Miss you Kassem
I was gonna leave a comment for John but I feel like Kassem deserves it more. He did all the work!
SLAM DIEGO baby
Kassem’s confidence in his videos taught me a lot back in middle school 😂😂 so happy to see you again!!!
Kassim and g4 man that's nostalgic. Thanks for making a classic Kassim now maybe my kid and laught at your interviews with me lol
Welcome Back Kassem G! Keep posting, love your humour! Was subscribed for over 8 years probably and finally you are back!
Kassem I've always loved watching your California on. Glad you uploading video again!
Like a fine wine. Kassem still has the best nose for free stuff
This brings back memories to 2010 playing Civ5 and watching Kassem's videos
I like how kassem is like yay free stuff immediately then goes to no GIVE ME FREE STUFF in like 10 seconds lmao
What a great feeling seeing Kassem meeting Jessica Nigri in Comic-Con after so many years, great video, thanks
I never clicked so fucking fast in my entire life. the GOAT is back
Nice to see this on your channel! Loved this on attack. Your on the streets segments were always my favorite parts of the show.
Omg the boys are back! Lol I really had to do a double take when your name popped up in my subscription box. I've missed your videos man!
The return of our king, lord and saviour Kassem! I missed you man!
Can’t believe tension between those protesters was completely put out by that Pepsi. Great job Kassem.
KassemG upload? Today was a good day.
Never thought I'd see you in anything more than Norm McDonalds compilations. Glad to have you back
hell yeah kassem. i prayed for your return. no man on the street has been as funny as you
Seriously cannot believe it. This was a trip! Kassem you magnificent wolf!
High chance your gonna disappear again soon but real nice to see this kind of stuff again man, thanks Kassem!
The original goat of TH-cam is back with his best series? I can finally die happy.
WE...NAY...THE WORLD...MISSED AND NEEDED YOU!!!! WELCOME BACK!!!!!
ahhh come on, be nice to Jon!
Jon; "Yeah, be-"
Kassem; "They Were talking about John Constantine! GOSH, JON!!! NO MANNERS!!"
im happy you're back, missed you man
