It's sad that unfortunately lost media like that are unlikely to get released, stuff like this is unlikely to be found. Either due to any leads reaching their end when you can't find anymore of them, or due to people thinking it's a lost cause when people just don't care about it anymore. It came and went, and no one had the hindsight to preserve this until it was too late.

[@paldiowebimbo6186]

For the cat animation, I don't think it's a segment, but rather a bumper. You see back in the early 2010s when the internet was starting off cats were EVERYWHERE, an dot me it makes sense that a kids network would do something similar to Dog with a blog where they used effects to make the lips move and have someone narrate them Honestly I can't decide if it was either Disney Channel or Cartoon Network, I know Nick could've done something like this but part of me slightly doubts it was a thing on their channel. I think if it was a bumper, then sadly it might be lost to time unless someone was recording that day and kept it on them for one reason or another, again, I highly doubt that the cat thing will be found

[@GuyNamedSean]

I agree entirely. It looks very familiar to me, but I feel like that's because there were just so many things like that. It so easily could have been a briefly used bumper or something similar.

[@averagewhiteguy2]

I agree as well. I vaguely remember something like this, but I could just be misremembering.

[@hauntingtale4773]

I think so too, especially if the bumper didn't give any info on the network it was on and was made to be wacky, and then was followed up by an oddball show, such as MAD. While it may seem odd now, doing wacky stuff like that was super popular at the time.

[@Minkfang]

Yep sounds violently familiar but I think it’s easy to visualise the chaotic randomness of bumpers

Man, if Me and My Friends would've gotten released at the end of that year, 2022 would've been the best year in lost media ever. I mean, last year was already insane, but that would've definitely been the cherry on top. It really sucks what happened. I get the whole Sesame Street leaking situation and how it was hugely frowed upon since it was basically in government archives, but this based on a show that's ended basically 13 years ago. At that point Nick shouldn't be as concerned with that property since the show is so old.

Being a lost media enthusiast has its struggles... On one hand, you want to find these pieces of lost media and have them properly archived but on the other, you sometimes just have to accept the fact that some pieces of media will never be found no matter how hard you try. I have personal journeys in involving finding and archiving personal pieces of lost media and many of them would unfortunately hit dead ends. However, sometimes by sheer luck, I do find said pieces of media and the joy in me re-discovering it again is something only people in the lost community can relate to. One such example is of a now lost spanish fandub of an anime I once stumbled upon years ago. I almost thought that I have exausted all the possible leads I could find but lo and behold, by just using a different browser and the wayback machine, I was lucky to have downloaded archived copies of this lost fandub and I couldn't have felt any happier. Being a lost media enthusiast is a double edged sword, but we as a community shouldn't loose sight of our past victories :3

There was lost media which I thought was kinda a dead end because I was not able to find anything online, aka the Animal Kaiser OST (2010). It was only now where I found out that the full OST was posted to youtube 6 months ago, and I thought it would never be online because no one was really that interested on it. I didnt make a post on reddit that time about it since i did not have a reddit account, but there was only one post about it 7 months ago about how someone's friend (possibly the guy who uploaded the ost to youtube) found the album. I kinda wanna know more about what happened since I also never looked into the discord. But if something like this is able to be found, then I believe older lost pieces of media can be found as well.

[@OmegaCorsair]

BROOOO YOU JUST UNLOCKED SOME MEMORIES FOR ME ABOUT ANIMAL KAISER

[@Account_Not_Applicable]

I wonder if that lost Spongebob Baseball animation is related to a behind the scenes clip I saw once on Nickelodeon back in the day. It showed Tom Kenny recording for Spongebob, singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." As far as I knew back then, this wasn't used in any Spongebob episode, nor was it in any advert shown on Nickelodeon, and since then I've always wondering what that recording session was for. If they're related, Nickelodeon definitely had some involvement making the animation, or at least allowed Tom Kenny to record his voice for it, as they've done so in the past with a sketch on SNL. If not, there might be another Spongebob Baseball related lost media animation or advert out there Edit: so the SNL skit was actually not approved by Nick and is actually the reason for Nick restricting Tom from using his Spongebob voice for outsider projects Edit 2: so at least one instance of the "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" recording was used at a Philadelphia Phillies game--no animation, just the song over the loud speakers--which says to me it's not uncommon for Spongebob to be used as a baseball promotion. Though I wonder what purpose would it be to have an official voice recording from Tom Kenny, which is a lot of effort to make and obtain given how protective Nick is of their golden boy, and only use it for one event

[@sonicfanboy3375]

I've heard Nick had somehow trademarked SpongeBob's voice probably because of the SNL skit

[@Account_Not_Applicable]

@@sonicfanboy3375 I just looked into that and it seems they became more restrictive on Tom providing his voice to non-official Spongebob material due to the skit. My guess is they'd approve of him being part of outside projects so long as the project wasn't adult or inappropriate in nature. Regardless, it would seem like anyone who wanted Tom to use his Spongebob voice for other work they would have to get approval from Nickelodeon

[@andykishore]

@@Account_Not_Applicable These are the ones right? www.sbmania.net/spongebob-clips-214-Nicktoons-TV-Voice-acting kzbin.info/www/bejne/jp-Xc4hrqKd6pJo It's unknown what purpose the "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" song had or was even intended for because outside of two behind the scenes footage videos, this song wasn't used in any official SpongeBob related projects or media. The only purpose I could find was the "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" song being played at Philadelphia Phillies from at least 2008, but that didn't have any cartoon animation. All it had was the song being played over the speakers, a SpongeBob mascot running on the field, and the crowd being rude. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6eZZ4eFo9eHhKc

[@Account_Not_Applicable]

@@andykishore yep that's it! It seems odd that there would be all that effort just to play it at one sporting event, especially in Philly (Nick hq is in Burbank, so I would think some California team would be more logical). I wonder if maybe it was a sort of mass promotional thing, that the recording was lent out to various major league teams to use to promote the series or something. It already seems like it's not uncommon for Spongebob to be at baseball games. As for the lost animation in the original post, I'm starting to think there was some sort of deal made between Nick and MLB given it's happened a couple of times. Again I doubt it would be a one time thing for a single team, but I'm not a sport person. I dunno if certain teams are more "valuable" to do promotions like this with.

[@Plaprad]

Just something for the Sponge bob one. I was stationed in Texas in 2005 and remember this being brought up. There was a group of us on the launch truck heading out to the flightline and just chatting. One of the guys had just come back from leave, and I remember that because he HATED Spongebob. Apparently they went to a game and his kid started calling out that Spongebob was on tv. He told us the best part of his leave was where he had been staying had no cable, so he didn't have to see Spongebob for a while.... Then he shows up at a baseball game. That's all I got. One of those random memories that just popped up hearing about it. I can't even remember who it was. Just that we gave him crap about his leave getting "ruined".

[@mightyfilm]

At the risk of saying "well, it's better than nothing," I am grateful that we at least have more photos of Slamfest. It may not sound like much, but it's sure a whole lot more than what we started with. Really is a shame this wasn't a touring promotion. I'm sure every performance would have been unique to an extent, but if it had better press and a bigger presence, there would have been a more likely chance something could have surfaced. The one time promotion kinda doomed this to obscurity.

I think I might've seen that cat news thing that storyboard artist was talking about, as it sounds like the kind of interstitials/bumpers they were airing around that era of the network. It sounds like the kind of wacky, random skit they'd do during that time when Fried Dynamite was their Friday night block. No idea if it was a series of shorts, feel like it'd be more like a random one-off thing.

There was one hoarder I saw on a show that had a house full of boxes of recorded television channels. To the point where even if you watched it non-stop there was no way they could have watched everything as we’re talking decades of recording multiple channels every day. I think it was all thrown out, but I couldn’t help but wonder if there was any lost media that by chance happened to be recorded that is now sitting in a landfill somewhere. (And how it could have been gone through without driving someone insane.)

I think one lost media search that has hit a dead end yet no one talks about is the original unaired 1986 pilot of Power Rangers known as Bio-Man. The closest that it's seen the light of day is a few clips that were on a MMPR pitch promo and two shots of people running away that were shown on the original MMPR pilot episode. Miguel A. Nunez, Jr., an actor who was in the Bio-Man pilot, said he has a copy of it but it's buried in a storage unit. Paul Schrier, the actor who played Bulk in MMPR, said he has seen it but he doesn't have a copy of it.

There was a German music show that aired throughout 1969 to 2000. Episodes 2-25 were recorded on shoddy tapes, which resulted in them dissolving and the videos being lost to time forever (with a few select examples). However, numerous people had recordings on many of these lost episodes, allowing for episodes 4-25 to be reconstructed fully! The 17th episode had the first twoish minutes preserved due to a magazine and an award show discussing the show. Episodes 21-25 had an amateur filmmaker recording, with the 21st and 22nd episodes being of the afternoon test run, and the 23rd to 25th the live show itself! The 2nd episode exists online thanks to only **one** recording, resulting in one of the songs and the moderation of the presenter becoming lost to time. As for the 3rd episode, it has no known recordings to this day. Pictures of the broadcast exist, but it’s likely the episode has been lost forever. This one is especially tragic since it had one of the last live performances of a singer (Alexandra) who would pass away from a car accident only a few months after the episode’s airing. The show itself was unique for numerous reasons, which has made it have a somewhat notable fanbase years after its cancellation. The reconstructed episodes exist on KZbin (the channel “lautfm HITPARADIO), but the third episode is expectedly missing. I don’t expect much to come from this, but I reckon it’s worth a shot

It’s not real. It sounds fake

I believe it was confirmed to be a real thing by some people from Nickelodeon themselves

Who’s here after Super Why’s pilot was found… gives me hope for Me and My Friends! :)

[@sonicbootlegplush]

I love the super why part and me and my friends, the super why one feels like getting a hair in a hay pile, I have a very lost piece of lost merchandise, the Pop'nstep, The snoopy one, he is pretty much worth a bank. comment if you wanna request anything. ( edit ) well he isn't really a prototype but he can never be found anywhere and mostly are scams, Maybe the real Me And My Friends were the friends we made along the way

[@Onest00p1d_vampire]

4:23 I’m glad this aged like milk

[@SuperDavidBrothers]

My most wanted pieces of lost media that I want to become found are Slamfest, Shrek HP commercial, Blue Prints, Me and My Friends, Mess O Blues, Down the Mine Pilot, The Wiggles Pilot, and Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce.

i remember your now deleted me and my friends was the first video of yours i ever watched, and i was always so interested on how mysterious it was. It sucks to see how difficult and infuriating the search has become

[@flowerzforsaturn]

I think Nickelodeon just doesn’t want to share the MAMF pilot I remember a similar thing happened with the blues clues pilot. People were searching for it and then during blues clue’s anniversary they tweeted screenshots of the pilot proving they have it. When people asked if they could upload the pilot they either didn’t respond or straight up said no I don’t remember. The only entires I think we won’t find (or at least have a very hard time) is the SpongeBob or the CN cats one as we don’t even have any pictures. People have also suggested the cats one is a bumper if that’s true it’ll probably be impossible to find

[@Mooms]

I’m pretty sure Angela Santomero said she had a tape of the pilot. Though I’m assuming legal reasons is why she can’t upload it

[@ravenova5314]

Well, the super why pilot just got found, so there’s still hope for the others!

[@Johnmightbehere]

Hasn't the SuperWhy pilot found? I thought I had found it on KZbin a few days ago.

Sorry. That was after the video was released.

I’ve already lost faith in finding the Super Smash video. And if we’re being honest, so have you.

[@JamesLawner]

With something like that being shown on online over 20 years ago, how would it ever be archived in any way shape or form? Even if it were to have been saved somehow, the quality would be horrendous by today’s standards (something like 140p or maybe even lower). The only thing that could redeem this, is if someone from the event recorded it on a camcorder and held on to it after all these years, otherwise, this lost media hunt is a lost cause.

[@VirtualKermrade]

I think one that everyone used to be obsessed with before people inevitably gave up on it was Pink Morning Cartoon (PMC)

[@pastaraccoon1991]

That was found awhile ago wasn't it?

[@migueldiaz2050]

I copy paste them repeated. Also, that so sad and messed up. Let's hope her songs isn't too late of Lorie Salvatera's Album ( It's a Groove Thing )... 😔 The Lost songs pieces of Lorie Salvatera. Hi L Super Sonic Q, I have been seeing your videos through out a year. I first remember your video when you talked about a lost plush toys Cartoon Network characters that haven't been released in the USA, I just hoping that all of the plush toy characters, if Cartoon Network announce these products, will be released real soon, I just really really wanted these each characters so BAD. Also, there was something I want to tell you that there was a lost album or each songs that have been forgotten. There was this album that called "It's a Groove Thing" to a young star singer named Lorie Salvatera, and I believe it was released in Hawaii or USA year 1996, but all I know that I found it was only released in the 90s? There were four songs that are found on KZbin and I love listening to them so much (love/like). One of my favorite song that touches me deeply was a wonderful music, and I listen to it for a very first time in 6 weeks, here the name of the song " I'll always be your friend " it really touches my heart listening to her song and her voice was so beautiful, very soft and smooth jam. I just don't really know why she hasn't been released so soon when it haven't been public and other social network / media, like it almost been forgotten. There's one thing that's been forgotten was 7 different songs that haven't been in public, those are the songs I have never been listen to and it's not on KZbin, I'm hoping each & everyone must have the album with them. It's not very easy to find them and I try. So I was hoping if you could please maybe help do a little research, explain about what happened, and find them, that would be very helpful and get a chance to listen to these more songs of Lorie Salvatera, including everyone who has one, that would be great/awsome (This needs to be heard), but if you can't, I'm very appreciated that you try and did your best to find. I hope your read my comments very well ( sorry I write too much and slow, due to a learning disability, hope you understand ). All my best and Thank you for sharing of your videos of the lost media. 😊 Here is the rest of the list of Lorie Salvatera songs ( If you haven't heard these music, hope you guys will enjoy it ) : 4 Found: "I'll Always be your Friend", "Music and Me", "143 means I Love You", & "Love Is". 💖🎶😊🌈 7 Lost: "Ones Upon a Kiss", "If We Try", "All Coast Flava", "Everybody, get on up and Dance", "It's a Groove Thing", "Could this be Love", & the second final one is "I'll always be your Friend ( with Reprise )". 😔😭

I remember watching the animated version of backyardigans (me and my friends). I had a bunch of DVDs I would play in my grandmother’s car with those little tvs that hung on the back of the seat. Edit: I also remember super y. Oh the nostalgia is getting to me 😭

[@steelcrocodile5495]

I don't follow lost media, but I recently subscribed to this channel because I love the way you present and articulate! However, I do have a piece of potentially lost media that I want found. I used to hear radio disney every bus ride to and from school in 6th grade, the 03-04 school year. There was a bumper where I think a female voice told a raspy voice that sounded like krusty the clown to practice various healthy habits, but the only specific I can give you is one of the replies that the Krusty like voice gave was "We already eat lots of fruit! Fruit flavored candy, gum, and soda pops!" I've tried multiple times to find it through archived recordings of radio disney from the time but to no avail. Maybe it was a different radio station?

[@-Takisusa-]

Well if Me and My Friends was a pilot, there must have been editors. Perhaps you could reach out to anybody who may have worked at the Nickelodeon place where it was worked on in 1998 and especially on the pilot, like editors.

[@trey9382]

Hello there. I really enjoy watching your videos and i'm sure I've watched them all by now lol. I wanted to mention a piece of lost media to you that i've wanted to see in years. There used to be a show called "disney pixar's cars toons" which ran from 2008-2014. But season two episode five; "to protect and serve" was cancelled before airing. But not before a read-a-long book version of the plot released in shops. There is proof of its existence and a lost wiki page about it, i just hoped to bring more attention to the topic because this would mean the world to me if the episode did one day appear.

[@CloverCutieASMR]

Could the cats with ties thing been made by Aaron Benitez from Aaron's Animals? He's worked with lots of companies and mainly does stuff with cats.
