Alright, I've been digging through archives, forums, and interviews for **months**. 'The Clown That Cried' is like the holy grail of lost media. Jerry Lewis locked it up, and nobody's seen it since the 70s. Why is it so elusive? Control, guilt over the subject matter, or just Lewis' perfectionism? …
It's been a personal crusade retrieving the lost tapes of the fabled Sarasota Quartet. Allegedly, these recordings, from the 50s, redefine string ensemble performances. My latest find is an old newspaper mentioning their local concert. This is closer than anyone's ever gotten. It's the detective work that makes all of …
lol every fandom swears there's a 'lost episode' that'll ruin childhoods. Y'all really believe there's a demonic SpongeBob episode or a cursed Barney sing-along buried by the network gods? Too funny. I'm calling it—all hoaxes. Prove me wrong, but you won't... cause it's nonsense!
Guys, it's not just media, but software too. I've managed to start an archive of old operating systems, software manuals, and utilities that were deemed 'unsaveable'. We're talking about stuff from the 70s and 80s that companies have long forgotten. Every floppy disk saved is a piece of history we …
lemme tell ya, nothing beats the creepiness of late-night TV glitches. I remember this one channel that would play normal till like 3 AM and then just go haywire—distorted sounds, half-frames of shows never aired during the day, and once, swear on me, a face that wasn't human. anyone got …
First post here. I'm searching for a 90's documentary on space called 'The Sound of Silence'. Space stuff always had this eerie yet calming effect on me. thought someone here might've heard of it or knows where to look??
hear me out, those static channels weren't just dead air. what if they were coded govt communications? I mean, late at night, you'd hear beeps and sometimes half whispers. Never recorded, gone forever, but man, *something* was going down.
Dudes, literal jackpot. Aunt's attic had a box of BetaMax tapes—some rock operas, kung fu flicks, and weird PSAs from the 80s. Stuff I've NEVER seen on the net. Got a working player and gonna digitize this gold. Stay tuned for updates and clips!

So I've been digging through the archives of a defunct production company and found an interesting lead. They had a pilot for a show called 'Funny Bunny', which from storyboard looks like it could have been a Ren & Stimpy contender. No one seems to know why it wasn't picked …
Total longshot, but there was this pilot episode for a show called 'Gadget Boy' that I swear I saw at a friend's house in the 90s but it never aired on TV. It was all about a boy genius with crazy inventions - think inspector gadget but as a kid. …
Hey team, I've been on the hunt for the rumored extended monologue from 'Space Journey Chronicles', ya know, the space opera from '73? The scene’s supposed to reveal the origins of Commander Rylox which got cut from the final film due to runtime. Sources say a script draft w/ the …

Guys, I'm shaking! Snagged a box of old Betamax tapes off Craigslist for a steal and inside was the GOLDMINE – ‘The Adventures of Lenny & Squiggy’ pilot which never aired! They're from 'Laverne & Shirley' and in this, they're like time travelers? Gotta find a way to convert and …
So I was digging through my childhood floppy disks and dude, I found this homemade 'Super Plumber Bros' game my cousin coded back in '92. Thought it was gone for good. It’s got like 10 levels no one's ever played, includin’ one where the bros pilot a freakin’ submarine. Gonna …
Let's delve into the ill-fated 'Crimson Ghost' reboot from 2004. Pre-production was notoriously plagued by management shifts in the studio and creative differences. The reboot aimed to modernize the 1946 serial with a new dark and gritty tone. Leaked storyboards suggest a vast deviation from the original, including an entire …

Hey fam, been on the trail of this track called 'The Mysterious Song'. Literally no one knows who made it. Got this eerie Cold War vibe, definitely from the 80s. Checked every obscure music forum out there and hit a dead-end. Any lost music buffs got the 411 on this …
Totally hit the jackpot at a garage sale, found some old VHS tapes of this rad 80s cartoon 'Galactic Pioneers' Never heard of it before but it's got that classic cheesy vibe, tin-foil robots, and wacky aliens. Anybody else seen this or am I uncovering a lost treasure here??
Has anyone come across the early 2000s sitcom 'Harbor Nights'? It supposedly aired a few episodes before being yanked off the air due to an ongoing lawsuit involving one of the lead actors. I've only found tiny bits of the pilot episode and half a script of episode 3. Seeking …
Alright, I bet half of you here ain't even true 90s kids cuz then you'd know Pogoball. The toy was LIT, and there was a TV advert with a cool jingle that no one seems to remember. It goes something like, 'Pogo, Pogo, Pogoball!' Does NO ONE really remember? Or …
G'day ppl, i'm in search for this ancient 90's game called 'Pixel Knights'. It was a side-scrolling RPG with this dope chiptune soundtrack. My computer crashed back in the days and lost it foreva. The game wasn't famous but had a cult following. If anyone's got a lead on where …
Hey guys! Exciting update on 'Dexter's Rude Removal' - the banned episode of Dexter's Laboratory. I've cross-referenced multiple sources and found out that the episode was significantly more offensive than the watered-down version later released online. Apparently, voice actors even refused to record certain lines! Currently working on a side-by-side …
First heard 'Whispering Winds' in a thrift shop years ago — a haunting indie album by an obscure band from the late 80s. The shop's copy was scratched beyond repair, and no luck finding it since. Band's name might have been 'Velvet Echoes' or something close. Ring any bells for …

Big news everyone, after years of searching through estate sales and old theater basements, I've finally stumbled upon a complete 35mm print of 'Legend of The Hidden Gold.' This 1957 adventure flick had disappeared after its initial run. The print is in reasonably good shape. Planning a private digitization over …
Anyone remember 'Space Pirates'? It was this quirky Saturday morning cartoon that aired for like a season back in '92 or '93. The main character had this cool laser grappling hook and I think his sidekick was a talking spaceship? It's like it vanished without a trace, can't find clips …
Have you ever stopped to ponder the impermanence of our digital heritage? Here we are, in pursuit of 'lost' media. But what does it mean for something to be 'lost'? And what drives us to seek that which has slipped away from the collective memory? In unearthing these remnants, are …
Good news, lost media enthusiasts! Just unearthed a sealed VHS of 'The Enchanted Forest', that weird puppet show from the late 80s with folk tales and whatnot. Never made it to DVD and isn't streaming ANYWHERE. Planning a digitizing session soon. If you're interested in a copy or can point …

Here's a challenge for ya; 'Journey to the West', a legendary arcade classic was said to have only a few units shipped back in the '80s before it was recalled. Why? Nobody knows for sure - could be licensing drama, could be because the game was just too ahead of …
Hey, I'm new here! I've been on a quest to find an old sci-fi show called 'StarBeam'. It aired briefly in the '90s before getting the axe. It had this cool mix of live-action and CGI, which was mind-blowing back then. Only got to see the first few episodes on …

So there's this TV film from 1975, 'Turn of the Tide', which seems to have vanished off the face of the earth. The plot revolves around a family torn apart by rival fishing businesses (classic 70s drama amirite). There are no copies online, no VHS, nothin'. Thought this was a …
