Permanently Lost Media That You'll Never See (Vol. 3)

The beauty of lost media is that not all media is completely lost and still has a chance of reocovery, but some media, for one reason or another, is irretrievably lost, and will never be seen by the public again. Here is a list of just some media that may very well be lost forever.

You know what's a deep mine of lost media? Radio. It's almost always live and the pre-casette days (aside from some pre-produced shows) are just freakin' gone. Today I suppose a lt is recorded, but you rarely hear of repeats or re-releases. Once when going on holiday we caught this hilarious local station outside London. They were talking about a crazy charity event in the USA (something something people slapped with dead fish to raise money for a talking fire engine), and commented "they wouldn't even use that as a plot in South Park!", then the rest of the show went in and out of being a South Park parody, including the credits all being delivered in Cartman's voice.

[@QuikdethDeviantart]

You could fly out into space slightly faster than light and eventually you’ll catch up to the radio signals… and possibly go back in time as well, allowing you to listen live!

[@BigFeet-id7ro]

I would literally flip out if anyone finds that Spider-Man lost film. Would be amazing!

[@worldcomicsreview354]

If it s found, Disney should just buy it out and put it on a DVD as an easter egg. It deserves it after all this time / noteriety.

[@BigFeet-id7ro]

@@worldcomicsreview354 While that would be cool, Disney don't deserve the credit or revenue from that fan film. It deserves to be preserved and free for all to see.

[@misseselise3864]

what part of “you will never see” did you not understand

[@theturkeychild]

Regarding the erasure of old episodes of TV shows: it wasn't just that it was expensive to keep the tapes around, it also had to with the fact that cultural ideas about performance were really different back then. Even in the 60s, film and television were still quite new and virtually everybody working in the industry would have had their roots in live theatre, where archiving one particular performance of a script just wasn't all that important. The idea is pretty alien to us today, but there was even some resistance to recording early TV shows at all because people were thinking that the network, cast, and crew might want to perform it again differently, as if it were a play, and they didn't want to have to compete with another version floating around

[@TheZackofSpades]

I think about this often. All live theater (even when filmed) becomes a type of “lost media” after its run because it’s presented and intended as a live experience. Should we consider every night of a theatrical run a type of “loss” once it bows? It’s just a philosophical thought for me.

[@GamingTeacher]

It doesn’t help that contracts sometimes made it cheaper to redo productions rather than re-air them.

[@brianwilhelm3777]

Yea Im really burning a hole in my pocket keeping those old VHSs in that box in the closet🙄

[@ionamoebam5931]

The truth is there is more lost media then there is archived for the future .Those old film tapes before digital tech and electric storage devise's came into play in are world, the old magnetic tapes used for filming was expensive and often reused and taped over for other projects ,Even NASA reused and taped over hours off the original moon landing tapes we will never see or hear the waffles they tossed on that trip .

[@JMFabiano]

Ironically, the thumbnail for this video reminds me of a lost media of my own: PLAYING CHICKEN WITH THE TRAIN. Apparently it was a filmstrip on train safety, and ends with a group of teens being decapitated (!) when playing too close to a passing train. Why Spider-Man? Because that's the one detail I can remember from the film too...a kid was reading a Spidey comic book.

[@waynevia6976]

I love lost media. It is my favorite topic to talk about.

[@michaeljensen1817]

After you have a decent library of videos built up, I'd love to see an update on some of the topics you've covered if there's been any new info. Well done so far, very informative.

[@bagi365]

Fun fact, author of R.U.R. (with help from his brother) invented the word Robot. We use that word today because of that play.

[@rubberduck306]

From the Czech word robota meaning labour. I think the only other Czech words in common use in the English language are pistol, polka, and since its creation, Semtex

[@baroncalamityplus]

Of all of those, I think only Spider-Man Vs Kraven The Hunter has a good chance of still existing. We know the only digital copy was lost with Cardozo's computer but there was at least one film copy that was made plus the original film itself. Also there was a clip film that was given to Marvel. It's possible that other members of the production crew had production footage that may be still with them or their families. Of course all of that could have been destroyed or is no longer viewable.

[@LikaLaruku]

I'd really like to see more stuff like this from the lost media community. I'm quite tired of lost media for popular well-documented shows that are less than 20 years old getting all the focus.

[@spiderfan2003]

It's always sad to think something is completely lost, I would definitely love to see spider man vs kraven and the sad story of Henry 1953.

[@charlottestreet3301]

Didn't Thomas the tank series done the episode where Henry was bricked in the tunnel

[@spiderfan2003]

@@charlottestreet3301 ya

[@coyoteartist]

As a Thomas fan, I'd love to be able to see that broadcast. At the very least to see more photos of the trains. As a odd side note, I have often wondered if as they were using Julia Lang, if she was to begin the story in her customary manner from Listen With Mother.

[@krustaceanSG]

The E in RTE is pronounced "Airen" just letting you know

[@hauntednetwork1521]

Recently discovered your channel, absolutely fantastic coverage on lost media.

[@dave3657]

Old VHS tapes may be the last hope of finding lost media. I can’t count how many tapes I’ve seen at flea markets that people had recorded television shows on.📼

[@zarach9459]

I am from Venezuela, here romantic soap operas used to be an institution and a tradition, when my grandmother suffered a stroke she was unconscious for 3 days between life and death, when she regained consciousness the first thing she told me was to record the soap operas 9 and 10 at night, this is what I did after buying several blank tapes, by the time she returned home she had dozens of episodes behind and I continued doing it like this for several years because she could no longer stay awake after 8 at night night, she watched the episodes in the morning, I think I still have a dozen tapes with episodes of those soap operas, but the VHS in my house was damaged many years ago.

[@Batnano]

imagine actually wanting to make a "thomas the tank engine" show LIVE lol

[@emoscotchtape]

ok but what if they used real trains 😍😍

[@Corpse_Wires]

insane that i went to sixth form with you and now i have your content unironically recommended to me -matty

I enjoy finding out things about lost media, and the possibility of any footage that might surface. Thanks for sharing this mini--doc! 😁🎥🇬🇧🐨

[@harrisonallen651]

The Spider-Man vs Kraven The Hunter short film is something I would like to see, The Sad Story Of Henry is likely lost forever, but thank god we’ve got evidence that it did exist.

[@faherty87]

Duuuuuude it is f'in wild and awesome that you covered the Riordans. (Pronounced Reardans) My dad always talks about watching it when he was younger. I didnt really know much about it apart from Gabriel Byrne being in it.ill be very happy to show him this video. Great analysis and research. RTE are horrendous for mismanagement. Have you seen Bachelor's Walk by John Carney who made Once and Sing Street? It was unavailable for years after it first screened. I heard both disagreements between Carney and RTE and issues with music rights being the cause for it being locked away. I actually bought copies of it off someone on facebook who happened to tape every episode. I think it's the best Irish produced show. It was thankfully added to RTE player a few years ago but the quality isnt great

[@islandhorizonvideos8230]

I remember reading that article about the Spider man movie in an issue of Marvels Fan Magazine, Marvelmania, that I got when I joined the Marvel fan club. I also got a fan club card, a poster and some stickers.

Wouldn't say "permanently". All it would take is for someone to invent a time machine, then go roughly to the time of the original release and get it.

[@tonyeckman4822]

The Spider Man movie is like the London After Midnight of the comic book world.

there is one episode of Starstuff on youtube, it was a saturday morning live action tv show with kids communicating via televisions from the early 1980s it had puppet scenes and laurel and hardy shorts and maybe the little rascals too, and the boy was on earth and the girl was in a space ship? far far away and the boy somehow made a communicator by putting a tv connected to a ham radio and came up with a telescreen commuicator ages before zoom calls.

[@futuramayeah]

the star of the show, the boy grew up and got copies of the episodes, and i tried to contact him to get the episodes but he said he lent them to his friend and then never got them back, and so only one episode made it to youtube and the tv station taped over the tapes that were at the station. so those tapes the star had were the only copies.

[@jmen4ever257]

I believe that foom issue 3 carried the story of this spidy fan film. It sure looked good at the time. As well, in a later issue, marvel posted the news of a marvel Christmas show, with songs in it, circa 74-75, that was to air on tv. Never another word on it after that.

[@beowulf1417]

Including short fan films would literally make for thousands of examples of lost media

[@DarkStar-wu9nq]

Kravem was played by Harvey Kartel . He mentions it in an interview

[@FLM-nn8ms]

really appreciating the work here, but next time you come across any Irish surnames or Irish language names you might want to just check the pronunciation before diving in. Riordans isn't Ree-ord-dans. It's pronounced Rear-dons. The people talking about it in the clip you include are pronouncing it correctly. And the state broadcaster is pronounced Rad-ey-Oh Telly-Fish Erin. Remember, vowels in languages that aren't English tend not to make the same sounds. Had no idea about that Spider-man project, it sounds fascinating.

[@AstileDohertyProductions]

Thank you

[@rakondite]

Impressive research and editing- I worked in documentary for some years and it’s an art form that you only learn with hard work. A constructive bit of advice is to double check pronunciation of words and names. You made some fundamental errors. The producer/director/writer Barry Letts was caught out on an episode of Doctor Who when he told Jon Pertwee to pronounce Chitin with a ‘ch’ - he was corrected by a viewer - also a university lecturer - that it should be a hard K like Kite followed by ‘in’. Too late to be corrected! Anyway, keep up the good work!

The real lost media you'll never see is Local things that only aired in one area and the stuff too boring to have a following. I question if fan made and film school projects count but they would be among the things you'll never see.

I really like your lost media stuff but I can't say i care much for the other content on your channel, and judging by the view counts of videos that have lost media vs ones that don't, have you thought about creating a separate channel for miscellaneous stuff and keeping this one purely as a lost media channel? I say this because I tend to prefer having my subscription feed purely made up of things I want to watch, and I've actually unfollowed people before for having a lot of miscellaneous videos uploaded to their channel and only once in a blue moon uploading one that's more relevant to my tastes. I also feel like if you rebranded to being strictly a lost media channel it'd give people just finding you a better idea of what to expect and why they should subscribe to you. You make a lot of unique lost media videos and I'd say it's up there with lsupersonicq in terms of the uniqueness of it, so I could easily see this channel becoming bigger, especially if it's more focused to a certain niche.
