It's always so fascinating how much lost media is "lost" until some random youtube channel or filesharing website account just uploads it in its entirety. It's almost never a situation where a box of official vhs tapes, or film reels, or original recordings, etc. are found in a warehouse or storage room.

This is exactly right. I think we need to drop the word "lost" from anything made post-VHS era, including video games. FORGOTTEN, yes ... but never lost, not like silent film, for example, which IS found in old cool and dry storerooms where the found film - somehow - didn't magically deteriorate, crumble, or catch on fire and blow up a building. We don't talk enough about music when it comes to lost media, either.

I feel like one of the big reasons why we are fascinated by lost media, is we are fascinated by creation, things that we know/dont know exist, but are not understood, that crossed with the necessity when lost media is "originally discovered" that it turns into this treasure hunt to find the original media, that makes it so interesting.

Cartoon Lost and Found is really fascinating to me. The special was meant to teach the viewers how lucky they were to find the tapes of old shows before they were destroyed yet ironically the special itself was lost until September of last year.

Funny thing about Peppermint Park. The puppet segments had been uploaded quite a while before the episodes were uploaded, but ONLY the puppet segments. The original uploader was requested to have the full episodes or at least the missing other segments, only to reply by saying something to the extent of not wanting to upload them because the leftover segments were unremarkable. So the series was considered "lost" for a while because other than the cringe factor, there was just nothing else of value.

The uploads of the Peppermint Park clips were pretty old, and I can't even remember which upload even had that comment. But it was well before uploading anything around 30 minutes wasn't very common, and certainly before Lost Media was as big as it was. The uploader posted the clips as pure cringe and only cringe. I can see why he wouldn't want to bother posting the generic sounding segments by themselves, or why he wouldn't want to reupload everything as a full episode. The clips were there to say "look at this abomination," in bite sized chunks. If I can remember the comment, I think he was looking into posting the forgettable non-puppet segments, but never got around to it.

Did not pan out, I'm afraid). I can even quote certain parts of it still. I had no idea it had become lost media!

I'm pretty sure I've seen the Substitute before. When he mentioned that it was the debut acting role of Mark Wahlberg, when he was still a rapper, it brought back to my memory a movie, I saw some years ago, that had a young Mark Wahlberg in it, where he was credited as Marky Mark.

God, I saw Cartoon Lost and Found when it aired. I didn't realize it was lost. I just remember thinking "Adam West is weird and probably hard up for money." His advice at the end of the episode (delivered at low, dutch angle and looking off camera) was: "Don't throw batteries into a fire. They could explode." Weird.

Adam West is a treasure ❤🦇

I would love to find a couple of half-hour travelogue programs called "Leroy in N.Y." and "Leroy in L.A.", in which the title character, a rural Southerner somewhere between Jim Varney's "Ernest" and Jeff Foxworthy in silliness, takes viewers on a tour of sites and activities in Los Angeles and New York City. It ran on Ted Turner's WTBS Superstation in Atlanta during its early days.

You also have a piece of found graffiti in the background of Attack of The Giant Vulture. BUST form a crew called TOK was a Brooklyn, NY based graf artist who died young (he may not even have hit his 20's yet). He 'got up' in all boroughs of New York City and over time, it's probably all been lost to buffing (graffiti clean up) and general change/gentrification of the city. The fill-in's you have in this video, located in the Chinatown area of New York are certainly long gone. RIP Bust.

I remember those pilots on CN that competed to become a new show. Those were pretty big events at the time, I'm surprised that a lot of them became lost.

How nice of Tom Servo to upload that for us, all the way from space.

That's incredible that Kirby Family was found almost 19 years to the day of its intended US release, I love it when things line up like that

Huh, I heard "The Gay Blade" and thought "Wait, Zorro: The Gay Blade isn't lost media", then I learned about an obscure game I've never heard of before, and I like to think I'm pretty knowledgeable on obscure games.

Yeah so I looked into Attack of The Giant Vulture, yeah they just straight up rip out his feathers, murder, and eat him at the end. No punches pulled. That's...immensely messed up

holy shit i knew felixferret!! she was a collector of lost media and other obscure PC stuff. she dropped off the face of the earth a few months back due to personal reasons (at least that's what she told me)

Freaky aired on Australian TV. And the scene where the giant shark eats the kid wasn't graphic in the slightest. It was the cheapest, dumbest looking CGI you can imagine.

Gayblades made me laugh so hard. I think its fucking awesome that someone was making an LBGT themed indie video game that long ago, that's fucking rad. "You have encountered 1 homophobic cop" hahahahahaha

Yeah iceberg videos have gotten very out of hand, to the point where literally any subject matter can be turned into an iceberg post/video.

I remember watching 'Freaky' as a kid, and I can confirm, it is indeed nightmare fuel! I could go on about the episodes that I can recall; just to name a few, there was the one where a kid obtains a ventriloquist dummy that comes to life and ultimately the kid is turned into a dummy; one where a kid leaves junk mail in the letterbox of a creepy neighbour who is very particular about not having junk mail, in the end the kid is trapped in a white void of a shopping catalog, unable to escape. One I distinctly remember watching, was of this girl discovering a photo booth at a mall. When she enters it, there's this massive studio with a photographer and crew that prompt her to pose like a model. Once she leaves, she discovers her face on magazines and newspapers, I don't remember what happens next, but the mall they filmed the episode in is actually not far from where I live, so it was kinda surreal seeing a familiar location in a TV series. And that's all the ones I remember off the top of my head, there's plenty of other episodes that my sisters and I watched and have haunted me ever since. Crazy to think it was considered lost for sometime, considering that the last time I remember watching the series was back in 2011. So while it was easy to come across here in NZ, it never occurred to me that it was inaccessible elsewhere. I should rewatch it sometime, confront my childhood fears and all that.

lost media has such a huge mystique because it's nearly impossible for media to _become_ lost now. As most of you post-internet kiddies have either realized, or WILL realize soon, every embracing photo, every drunken late night quote, every dumb video you, or your friends, parents, etc have EVER posted is STILL THERE... SOMEWHERE, where it will be found and brought up with minimal effort. Pre-internet media, however has the wild superpower of being able to just... go away.

The PC version of Zeus Carnage Heart Second may have been extremely rare, but there was a PS1 version which even got a direct sequel of its own (the confusingly named "Zeus II Carnage Heart"). The PS1 version is uncommon here, but I've still seen it around at several secondhand dealers, as well as online auctions, for 3,000 to 5,000 yen. The direct sequel (both games are spiritual sequels to earlier "Carnage Heart" games) isn't super common but can still usually be bought for less than 1,000 yen.

A whole avenue of lost media that fascinates me is all those old music videos, many fo which from the 90's that aired on MTV AMP. A few of them are almost impossible to find these days including the original broadcasts which were really fun to watch because they mixed all the videos in together like a continuous DJ mix and played some really cool obscure music. One band on this show was called the Shadowplay and the music video was called The Undreamt Dream. i love that video and had it on VHS until it was lost. There is very little info about how to obtain this video, the song is only available in a couple of places on vinyl.

I didn't know it wasn't something supposed to air and was something supposed to be ordered, because I did see it air.
