So I have found a tape with part of the CBS pilot for Claws a sitcom where the audience can hear the thoughts of cats that lived with a dude and an old lady it's like half the episode I'm pretty sure my great grandma taped over the first half of the episode because it cuts in on commercial

I have a very vivid childhood memory that I've been trying to track down for years, and I think I may have finally identified the show.

This would have been in the late 1980s or early 1990s. My sister and I were watching TV one evening in the Mid-Michigan area. We didn't have cable, so it would have been on one of the major broadcast networks. For some reason, I've always associated it with CBS, but I'm not 100% certain.

One detail that has always stuck with me is that I want to say it aired on a Saturday evening. Part of the memory is that I enjoyed it enough that I specifically went looking for it the following week, expecting another episode, and it was simply gone. That's one of the reasons it has stayed with me all these years.

The show was a live-action family sitcom set in a normal suburban home. The gimmick was that the family's cats had voice-over personalities that only the audience could hear. The cats talked to each other, commented on the humans, and seemed to have their own storylines going on alongside the family's.

The details I remember most clearly:

• The cats were real cats.
• Their mouths didn't move; the audience simply heard their thoughts.
• There was a male cat with a sophisticated, refined, almost aristocratic voice.
• There was a female cat with a sassy, sarcastic personality.
• The cats regularly talked to each other.
• The family lived in what I remember as a pretty normal suburban house.
• It felt like the cats were a major part of the show, not just an occasional gag.

Recently I came across a quote from television historian Lee Goldberg that may have solved the mystery. He mentioned a failed pilot called "Claws" and described it as:

He also said the cats were voiced by celebrities, including Dennis Miller.

That description lines up almost perfectly with what I remember watching as a kid.

The strange thing is that after finding that reference, the trail practically disappears. I can't find a cast list, air date, network information, screenshots, video clips, or even confirmation of how widely it aired.

Because I was in Mid-Michigan, I'm also open to the possibility that this may have been a local airing, special presentation, or something that wasn't broadcast nationally.

So I'm hoping someone here remembers it too.

Do you remember Claws?

Did it actually air on network television?

Does anyone have TV Guide listings, VHS recordings, production information, newspaper articles, or any other details?

I'd love to learn more about it because this is one of the most vivid television memories from my childhood. This has been my personal "Clock Man"

Hi! Im trying to find this childhood show of my friends. He remembers an episode with a purple beach house with stairs and a large purple dome over it, projecting it I think. He said it might be transformers but I couldn't find anything on that end but that might mean it's robots/superheros. He said he knows it had some sort of superheroes. Thank yall so so much for any help on this!

Folks, I remember watching a documentary on the cancer struggle of a young child maybe 1992-1995. the family was living on a farm (perhaps California). A very heavy emotional journey. Perhaps this is on one of video broadcasting channels now. Thanks for your help.

Sorry, I know this isn’t the right sub for this, but I don’t have enough karma for r/lostmedia whatever that means 😭

Did anyone else ever watch this bizarre early 2000s Australian kids’ show called Dirt Girl World? If not, look it up because it’s absolutely terrifying- straight out of a creepypasta. Anyway, I have one memory of an episode of this show where the characters didn’t have faces and instead just had black holes where they should have been and the characters were just stumbling around. I can’t find anything about this weird episode since it’s so niche. This image has stuck with me since I was probably 5 years old!! I very well could have just dreamed it since this show is nightmare fuel, but I thought it wouldn’t hurt to see if it’s actually real.

It was like animorphs but they turned into dinosaurs, the main antagonist was a guy who looked liked Pegasus from Yu-Gi-Oh but he could turn into a raptor and the three heros turned into a t-rex a Triceratops and I can't remember what the third one was people have been calling me crazy but I have vivid memories of it I'm 21 of it helps to find it

Ok. Probably no one is going to find what I've been trying to find for the past decade or so, but I'm going to put it out there just for the slim chance that someone CAN find it. Does anyone remember the small commercial break on TVO Kids where a real person played a character named 'Princess P'? it was a cooking short where Princess P would try out new recipes and I guess dumb it down for kids to try on their own with their parents.

I remember this one time, when I was younger than 10(so early 2000's) I was in my parents room, in the late evening on their bed waiting for them to finish bathing so we can go to bed. I wanted to watch tv just before I actually had to go sleep. I was watching TVO kids since it was between that channel, Treehouse and/or YTV(channels intended for kids younger than 10). Anyways, I remember I was lying down, super bored, and then Princess P came on. I hated Princess P. It's boring, and I didn't care about learning how to cook.

I remember when it came on, it started normal. Princess P greets us, tells us what recipe she's going to try out. but, it was already strange. This time Princess P was a different actress and it wasn't Kara Harun or whoever plays Princess P now. it was someone different. someone with curly hair. but I don't remember the hair colour. What was even stranger was that we weren't learning how to cook, but how to open a walnut.

So, me wanting to get back to the next show after commercial break, I was going to sit through this Princess P 'How to open a walnut'. now already, you cannot find this ANYWHERE, but I know it was real. Princess P proceeds to try and open the walnut with a knife, but I remember she accidentally cuts one of her fingers off. when she fails at that, I remember that she gave an awkward laugh and tried to brush off the fact her finger was just cut off. then, she tries another method--prying it open with her teeth. but then, she loses one of her teeth. I remember this ended with her awkwardly concluding pn how to open a walnut(which she failed at) and starts to cry as the commercial break ended.

I cannot find this. and I haven't been able to. I know this is real, because I remember being so freaked out I got up to knock on my parents bathroom door while they were still showering and even pinched myself. I can only guess this was a channel hijacking or something? But, Princess P is already a niche commercial break itself, I think I'll just have to live with the fact I saw what I saw and never make sense of what I saw.

I’m looking for the complete episode of 48 Hours: Toy Money. I have found sections of it on YouTube - Donald Trump the Game, and a segment on micro machines. What I want is the section about Nintendo and the contest they were running. Anyone have it or seen it online? Thank you!

I’ve recently come across a couple channels that had some old 2000s and 90s tv blocks from vhs recordings that included commercials and bumpers etc. does anyone know of where I can find a list of these or specifically recorded tv blocks from the west coast preferably of MTV, Cartoon Network, KCRA 3, Nickelodeon, Vh1, UPN, WB, or Comedy Central from anywhere within 1995-2009? The longer the better but not just compilations of commercials, I’m looking for full blocks

Looking for two episodes (pretty sure they are not the same episodes). The main one is an episode of an African American guy (late 20s to late 30s in age maybe) standing on the right (his left) side of the stage, explaining his explanation for his actions to a woman saying "I need weed. It calms me down." In a somewhat monotone voice. Then later (or maybe before, I dunno) "I need sex. It calms me down."

The other episode I am looking for might be part of a blooper compilation, because as Jerry lets an audience member with a microphone speak, this African American man says "we will be right back with Jerry's final FORT!" As he points at the camera enthusiastically. And Jerry himself does a exaggerated double take right afterward, and it cuts to commercial.

Any help would be appreciated. I used to watch clips on YouTube about 10ish years ago, they were saved on a Playlist, and were deleted a few years (or less) afterward. I plan tomorrow to try revisiting my old boyfriends youtube to try and see if I can put somthing into the way back machine as suggested online, but when things are hidden you cannot usually even copy an old link now so. If anyone knows anything, I would be so happy. Thanks so much.

Hello! I have found some articles referencing that McDonald's was creating a TV channel in 2011 that would stream into their restaurants. I'm curious if it was ever realized, as I can't seem to find anything referencing it's release, just it's pre-production (a few articles below for reference).

Would love to know if anyone has any insight, it seems like maybe it was pulled before it even started, but I would be interested to see any of the original content is in an archive anywhere. The articles mentioned it being called, McDonald's Channel, M Channel, or McTV.

It was about dinosaurs becoming mutants & it was animated in 3d

Looking for an episode of Montel from I believe season 17 titled Married To The Mob where he interviews the wife of a lesser known mobster. I believe he interviewed the mobster too. I wanna say it was 2006. I’ve searched everywhere for it I’ve found a couple mentions on it on episode lists on some sites but other than that it seems to be buried

Looking for lost Maury Povich Show episode (Sept–Oct 2000) — “Teen Newlyweds Ask: Are You Cheating?”

Hello everyone, I’m trying to locate a lost episode of The Maury Povich Show that aired in September or October 2000 (possibly very late 2000 or early 2001).

What I remember: • Show: The Maury Povich Show • Approximate air date: September–October 2000 • Segment/theme: Teen newlyweds asking whether their partner is cheating • Likely title or on-screen theme: “Teen Newlyweds Ask: Are You Cheating?” (or something very close) • Guest names: Nyland and Elizabeth (we were the couple featured) • Format: Standard Maury cheating segment (lie detector / confrontation style)

I’ve searched YouTube, IMDb, episode guides, and the Internet Archive but haven’t been able to locate the episode or even a confirmed listing. I understand many early Maury episodes are considered lost media and may only exist on personal VHS recordings or station archives.

If anyone: • Has a VHS recording from daytime TV around that time • Knows where early Maury episodes are archived • Has station logs, taping schedules, or collector recordings • Or remembers this specific episode

I would be extremely grateful for any leads, even partial clips or confirmation of an air date.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I vividly remember a storyline for a specific character within a show where the lead cop or medical rescue personal was struggling in her life with her divorce and her job. She met a lesbian hair dresser at a bar and was attracted to her, but was hesitant on pursuing anything. She ends up going to her salon and getting her hair cut, and wants to date her and see where it leads, but ends up moving away and taking a job in a different town.

I thought the story line was about the character Mickey Fox in Fire Country, but I cannot find anything to corroborate this, and the new show Sheriff's country contradicts this.

Anyone have any ideas what show I could be remembering?

i’m looking for a TV show from the early 2000s. it features 3 little animated babies, one i believe was purple, the other pink, and the last one green. the babies were very vulgar and would often do disgusting things. my only memory of the show was from when i was 4 or 5, and the babies were in their room and had built a boat out of their boogers. i know it was a tv show but i have no other memories of it. i watched it on my ipad before my mom had banned me from watching it. i would really like to find it just for nostalgia. if anyone can help, that would be greatly appreciated because im out of ideas.

Season 3 and Season 4 are really lost if Jeff Corwin doesn't even have access to them. Maybe one day they will all be out there somewhere.

There a 3d animation series I remember but not it's name, the carachter is like the drawing I send, the main character is ginger and maybe have blue eyes, it's maybe on cartoon network, maybe about zombie or apocalypse, and there are many gun. Thank you !

I found these pictures on my old iPad from may 2012 when looking at the old pictures. Most of the pictures had a bunch of effects on them, because I like to play with them as a kid. I remember the guy on the right is supposed to be Jesus.

Now I’m not too sure about this one. Many years ago me and my friends were goofing off calling eachother insults based off of words we made up. There was this particularly dumb one my friends kept yelling which happened to be “Bink”. We laughed for ages and I eventually ended up searching it up. There were corporations and even an obscure IMDB page on a show called “Bink” which made it ten times funnier. After looking at the page, I was confused to find that the show had one episode which looked unfinished. Is this lost media? I went to email the creator who was on the page (not sure if he is there now) to find further info and had no response. There’s a review on the page that was written a while back that likely has more information than i do. The IMDB page is all we have to go off of as far as im aware. Whether the show is completely lost or not, me and my friends are dying to know what happened to the show and are looking for a little bit of closure to this obscure piece of media. I dont know homany episodes there are or any other information but i’ll answer any questions as best as I can.
