How would you reinvigorate old videos?

Hi everyone! So I manage a channel that has several hundred videos, that are pretty good, talking head style interviews around fairly interesting topics. Some of them generate a few views per month while others are dead in the water. Do you think it would be worth while to adjust titles, descriptions, and tags to reinvigorate them? What other advice would you give strengthen the channel? Thank you!
 
If you think the content is really valuable you can play around with better titles and thumbnails. I would focus my energy on new better content though.
 
I've seen a few cases where people reupload a new version of videos. That might be worth checking into. Shoot a new video with the same content but done in a more refreshing and new light. Maybe even add something you noticed you missed the first time around.

You can even turn a video private if you no longer wanted to keep the old video circulating but feel it is valuable to keep the video in your archives.

Thank you both for the responses! Due to the guests we had on the show it's unfortunately not possible to reshoot them. I'll try messing around with new titles/thumbnails. Any thoughts on places to share them besides Reddit, FB groups, and Niche forums?
 
I have over 700 videos on my main channel, so for some older videos with out a new 100 views, I might
change the thumbnail and with Tubebuddy I check all of my tag words and try to improve them.
 
I would take the old footage and condense them to key points, re-upload and optimize (getting tired of the word) your titles and thumbnails. Same content but more to the point. In a world of instant gratification, longer content suffers, especially informative ones.
