In this week’s installment of our partnership with 5by, the video discovery and messaging platform that curates the web’s best viral videos, we take a look at the top five videos of the week from the platform’s TV category. For background on the videos selected, Theo Tabah, 5by’s Head of Content:The X-Files is coming back, and yes, so are the original lead actors. For all of you sci-fi lovers out there who grew up getting a kick out of Mulder and Scully’s paranormal investigative work, after 13 long years, they’re coming back to Fox with a 6 episode season.Inspector Gadget is also coming back (today), on Netflix. Although it looks like it will appeal more to the younger demographic. I’m still looking forward to seeing what they’ve done with a childhood favorite of so many.James Corden, who replaced Craig Ferguson on the late late show, is making a pretty significant impact in the online world of television in his first week on the job. He kicked it off with Tom Hanks, where they recreated every Tom Hanks movie in 8 minutes. With over 7.5 million views on YouTube, it was quite an impressive start to Corden’s late night career. Corden also had Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart on the show later in the week. Will Ferrell demonstrated his pitch-perfect voice, voluntarily singing the Star-Wars theme. Corden, keep it up.Jimmy Fallon snagged the last spot in this week’s top 5. He had Ariana Grande on the show, and her Celine Dion impression and shy demeanor won the hearts of millions this week. Enjoy!
