- "Smosh" is an online video comedy series starring Ian Hecox and Anthony Padilla. Cardboard Adventures is very loosely based off of Smosh, as well as features a few of Ian and Anthony's characters (including Ian and Anthony themselves) such as Boxman, Benny Jean, and That Damn Neighbor as well as having a similar intro. However, as the series progressed, it ventured further and further away from its smoshy roots and developed its own independent style and continuity.
- Smosh is a web-based comedy duo consisting of Ian Hecox (born November 30, 1987) and Anthony Padilla (born September 16, 1987). Padilla first began posting flash movies on Newgrounds in early 2003, under the name Smosh. He was later joined by his friend Ian Hecox. Soon afterward they began to post videos on YouTube in the autumn of 2005 and became one of the most popular channels on that site, with more than 5.0 million subscribers as of July 2012.
- Ian and Anthony are best friends who had regularly made videos together ever since high school, which they uploaded on YouTube and the website Smosh.com. At first, Smosh only consisted of half the pair. Anthony used to make flash games and movies on Newgrounds.com under the name "Smosh." The name Smosh originated when Anthony's friend was talking about a mosh pit, and he accidentally said "Smosh Pit" instead. This became an inside joke between Ian, Anthony, and their friends. Due to this, the comedy channel would become the most subscribed twice more, throughout 2007 to 2013.
- The franchise began when Anthony Padilla built a website in 2002, smosh.com, and made several different Flash animations. He has stated that the name Smosh came from an incident where he mistook a friend explaining a mosh pit, as a "smosh pit". Later, his friend, Ian Hecox, joined the venture. Padilla and Hecox first met in their sixth grade science class. They became friends, and quickly discovered their knack for comedy. In 2005, they joined YouTube and made several videos together, lip syncing to theme songs such as Mortal Kombat, Power Rangers, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. At first, these videos were not intended to be posted online, but after they sent them to their friends, they started a YouTube channel.

He has stated that the name Smosh came from an incident where he mistook a friend explaining a mosh pit, as a "smosh pit". Later, his friend, Ian Hecox, joined the venture. Padilla and Hecox first met in their sixth grade science class. They became friends, and quickly discovered their knack for comedy. In 2005, they joined YouTube and made several videos together, lip syncing to theme songs such as Mortal Kombat, Power Rangers, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. At first, these videos were not intended to be posted online, but after they sent them to their friends, they started a YouTube channel. One of Smosh's earliest videos, "Pokémon Theme Music Video," was released in November 2005. It followed the same style as their other earlier videos, featuring the duo lip-synching the original English theme song for the Pokémon anime. However, the video instantly became much more popular than any of their other videos; over the course of its lifetime, it gained 24.7 million views, becoming the most-viewed video on all of YouTube at that time. It held that title for about six months, but was removed by YouTube after the website received a notice fromShogakukan Productions Co., Ltd., claiming copyright infringement.[citation needed] The success of their Pokémon video and other videos led Smosh to be featured in the "Person of the Year: You" issue of Time Magazine, published December 13, 2006 and on Time.com. It also inspired them to expand their style beyond basic lip-synching videos, and eventually to start creating videos of various genres, such as mini-skits and sketch comedies.[citation needed] In March 2007, a user named Andii2000 re-uploaded the original Pokémon video; it has over 14.8 million views as of April 2013. Due to the channel's continued success, and Smosh's partnership with YouTube, the two recreated the video in November 2010, this time changing the words to be critical of The Pokemon Company taking down the Pokémon theme video.

- Ian and Anthony are best friends who had regularly made videos together ever since high school, which they uploaded on YouTube and the website Smosh.com. At first, Smosh only consisted of half the pair. Anthony used to make flash games and movies on Newgrounds.com under the name "Smosh." The name Smosh originated when Anthony's friend was talking about a mosh pit, and he accidentally said "Smosh Pit" instead. This became an inside joke between Ian, Anthony, and their friends. Their rise to fame started in the fall of 2005 during YouTube's early days. The videos they made then were extremely different to their videos now. Smosh's earliest videos were music videos of theme songs from video games or television shows recorded in Anthony's bedroom. One of Smosh's earliest videos uploaded on November 28, 2005 was the Pokemon Theme Song. It was an extremely big hit for the early channel as from March 12 to May 19, 2006, it was the most viewed video on YouTube from being at 4,300,000 views by the time it surpassed eggtea's "Myspace- The Movie" sketch comedy video as the most viewed video to 10,600,000 views before being surpassed by Judson Laipply's "Evolution of Dance" video. It remained on YouTube for at least 6 months with over 24,000,000 views before it was taken off due to copyright issues. Shogakukan Productions Co., Ltd. forced YouTube to remove the video for copyright infringement. All of this publicity made Smosh become the most subscribed channel on YouTube with nearly 3,000 subscribers however they were shortly surpassed by Judison Liapply. The duo soon stopped making music videos as often and moved onto comical 'episodes' which would become what they are most famous for. These started off with short videos such as Dolls and Stranded. But later on, they turned to full 3-5 minute long skits and shows. The plots of these episodes would be about anything, from Ian's birthday to Disney movies. Due to this, the comedy channel would become the most subscribed twice more, throughout 2007 to 2013. During that time, in July, 2011, Smosh was bought by Alloy Digital (now Defy Media). On August 21, 2013 they held their first ever live stream which was meant to help donation for Food Battle: The Game. In 2015 five new regular cast members were added to the Smosh family these being Keith Leak II, Noah Grossman, Olivia Sui, Courtney Miller and Shayne Topp. This gave Smosh the chance to have even more elaborate and detailed skits. They were also able to launch other side series such as Every Blank Ever and The Big What If which in many cases does not feature Ian or Anthony. After the addition of the five regular cast members, previous actors and actresses such as Lee Eisenhower, Travis Zeiler, Melissa Melancon and Brittni Barger have appeared less and less with most not appearing at all. Many iconic characters from the earlier Smosh days such as Boxman, That Damn Neighbor and Teleporting Fat Guy also vanishing from videos. On June 14, 2017, Anthony officially left Smosh, leaving Ian now as the leader of Smosh. Now, their videos are usually longer skits, with more detailed plots and an older audience aim. Recently, Smosh issued their first game show on the channel where it features other YouTubers. Over their twelve years on YouTube, Smosh has expanded from a single channel of two teenagers making short sketches into a brand with a full cast, five official channels, multiple awards and nominations, a fully scripted series and two films.
