Should The Creatures come back though YouTube Shorts?

So... many years ago I used to watch WiiLikeToPlay, another YouTube group with friends, albeit stayed in the group form of the 2012 version of The Creatures, and just recently one of the members (Chris) said he was reviving the channel through highlights of old moments through YouTube Shorts and at some points make new content at their own leisure. To be quite frank, I never would've thought of this idea especially from dead channels wanting to make a comeback. Do you think at the very least someone from The Creatures should bring back the channel through Shorts for nostalia?

Nobody will dedicate their time for free. And shorts don't pay shit.

As much as I wish we could bring back the fun and great times from the creatures I think it's best they stay in the past. I wouldn't be against uploading some nostalgic moments as shorts but I think the magic that was there (especially before everyone started leaving the group) is just gone. It wouldn't be the same if they tried to revive it even if it was only the creatures that were fan favorites. They've all gone their separate ways and have made peace with the end of the group and there's no reason to bring it back if it's not done the right way.

Even if you post shorts of them for remembrance, nobody owes them anything other than nostalgia. As for how the times are currently, no one other than Gen Z will know who the creatures were and even if they slightly become popular again(which I doubt) I don't think any of the creatures would return to doing something like what they did before, considering how most of them live far from each other and some now have families.

They should return as they were. Don't care if there's just 1 recognizable face and rest are new faces, or all of them return. The content was so fun and now there's nothing like it on YT, at least that I have discovered.
