After making their way to [[YouTube]] in 2006, Drew grew more in popularity thanks to the [[Drew Pickles Goes To]] videos, which had him going to random places and enacting his super swell shenanigans. User [[BooNube]] would popularize Drew's iconic catchphrase of "Bag, that was swell!" (though some users mishear "bag" as "bang"), which Drew still uses to this very day. His depiction in videos also shifted, as he became a lot more aggressive and dealt with his problems in a more planned out, tactical, and swell way. Other members would begin experimenting with other styles as well, such as [[Drew Pickles Does X]], where he tries to do a specific task | After making their way to [[YouTube]] in 2006, Drew grew more in popularity thanks to the [[Drew Pickles Goes To]] videos, which had him going to random places and enacting his super swell shenanigans.

Other members would begin experimenting with other styles as well, such as [[Drew Pickles Does X]], where he tries to do a specific task and fails horribly, [[Drew Pickles Explains His Reasons For Not Starring In]] and [[How To Unlock Drew Pickles In]], where he explains why he didn't star in a particular movie or show or the unorthodox methods of unlocking him in a specific video game respectively, and [[Drew Pickles Talks 'Bout Closing Logos (series)|Drew Pickles Talks 'Bout Closing Logos]], an endearing series of videos where Drew looks at various closing logos in a very chill manner, though he does throw in some swell commentary. | ||
Despite his popularity and being the main face of the Barney Bunch/Speakonia Community, many high-ranking members of the community began to look at Drew in a more negative light by the mid to late 2010s during the [[Barney Bunch Renaissance|Renaissance]] era, thanks in part to the oversaturation of Goes To videos and various interpretations of the character straying far away from what he once was, and serving as a mouthpiece for the content creator's opinions (most infamously by commentary channel [[DrewPicklesIsSwell1957]]). This shift caused many of the high-ranking members to turn to other characters, the [[The Wiggles|Wiggles]] especially, instead, although many users still continue to use Drew to this very day, especially as the Wiggles themselves became less utilized and ultimately fell back into obscurity following the end of the [[Second Barney Bunch Renaissance|Second Renaissance]], as well as many members reverting his personality back to being close to what it was originally. | Despite his popularity and being the main face of the Barney Bunch/Speakonia Community, many high-ranking members of the community began to look at Drew in a more negative light by the mid to late 2010s during the [[Barney Bunch Renaissance|Renaissance]] era, thanks in part to the oversaturation of Goes To videos and various interpretations of the character straying far away from what he once was, and serving as a mouthpiece for the content creator's opinions (most infamously by commentary channel [[DrewPicklesIsSwell1957]]).
