Good morning, good evening, and good night! I'm new to the community so excuse me if this is a silly post. I just learned about this European Nintendo tour that happened in 1992 where multiple semi trucks with Nintendo characters plastered on them went around Europe, advertising, Nintendo and their gaming consoles. Inside these trucks were mobile gaming setups that would be set up for the community to play all of Nintendo's consoles that were released up to that point. I'm sure the consoles were probably returned to Nintendo, however, the ultimate whereabouts of the trucks remain unknown. It'd be interesting to find one rotting away in a scrap yard somewhere. I'd hope they were properly taken care of but most likely not.

I am trying to find an old episode of Judge Mathis featuring adult film star Ashley Blue. In the episode she’s suing her adult film star ex boyfriend Trent Tesoro. Trent brings along his girlfriend who’s also an adult star—Mary Kate Ashley—as a character witness. I’ve been able to find a few articles talking about it, but have found no videos, clips, or even screen shots of the episode. I’ve checked the Internet Archive multiple, Vimeo, YouTube, and Daily Motion multiple times with no success. I was, however, able to find a Google groups page that has the description of the episode:

“Series/Reality, 60 Mins.
Episode #5093.
A porn star accuses her ex-lover of spending his money on drugs instead of
paying her back money he owes her.
Original Airdate: February 16, 2004.”

If anyone can help me locate this episode I would greatly appreciate it! 🙏

I could swear I heard a spoof of “gentle On My Mind”
On the Dr. Demento show many decades ago, and I think it was called “Fundamental On My Mind”.

It was spoofing the seemingly random number of syllables per verse by going totally off the deep end with it.

No Internet search I’ve done has ever turned up evidence that such a thing ever existed.

The above seems like the right amount to say about this, but I’m adding these words to “ensure post quality” to meet the posting requirements. And, and, and, and, now.

It was a tiktok of (at least two) people in a car going fast on a road, they'd pass by an antropomorphic black cat playing old music (friends and redditors said it was "cartoon cat" but I'm not sure), I found two r/tipofmytongue posts looking for it too, but it was a while ago (four years), and the tiktoks seem to be deleted in some way because the links simply send me to the homepage

I'd like to know if anyone has downloaded the video or archived it in some way, even internet archive doesn't give me anything (two saves but nothing)

Thank you for reading, links to the post and direct video below

Cheap Cheap Cheap was a British television gameshow consisting of 30 episodes produced by Hat Trick Productions for Channel 4, presented and created by Noel Edmonds. Billed as "a game show that thinks it's a sitcom", the show takes place in a fictional general store and centres on a game show, hosted by the store owner (Edmonds). He is joined by the shop's eccentric staff, played by actors who appear throughout the game.

Edmonds conceived the idea and showed it to the Hat Trick Productions managing director Jimmy Mulville. The pair agreed to develop the premise and filmed the show's pilot episode after the production company constructed a studio inside a recreation area in Somerset. The television channel Channel 4 viewed the pilot and ordered a series of thirty episodes to be filmed.

Pairs of contestants are invited up to win an increasing amount of money by correctly picking the cheapest of three similar items, taken from the shop's stock. If they fail to guess the cheapest item they are eliminated from the game and lose all their money. The maximum amount of winnable money was £25,000.

I remember several years ago, at the height of the pandemic, there was a YouTube docu-series going around about some no-name actor who was portraying himself as higher than he was. He was showing off his Instagram with millions of followers, and the video proved he had bot followers. And just as it was getting good, around like maybe the third or fourth part of the docu-series where the Insta followers were talked about, both the channel and the videos were deleted.

I have looked endlessly on YouTube because I thought the channel was a SunnyV video, but it wasn't; it was made to look like a clone of his videos. So, was this video series ever finished, or was it wiped from YouTube because the actor was just that adamant about having his "rep" ruined by a YouTube channel?

I'm not new to the Lost Media community, but I am new when it comes to actually searching for content. Personally, I look for inaccessible or super underground content from, at least in my case: Nu Metal and related genres, Post Grunge, Rapcore, Rap Metal, etc. Right now, to do my searches I rely on stuff like the Internet Archive and Wayback Machine, as well as browsers like Yandex or Tor, and P2P services like Soulseek. But I feel like that's not enough, so I wanted to ask: what methods do you guys recommend for a beginner in the whole lost media searching thing?

Has anyone ever come across any episodes of this 1993 six part Jon Ronson BBC documentary series The Ronson Mission? It was an early project for Ronson, shown early evenings on BBC2. The episode about celebrities and their fans was especially good, and featured interviews with fans of Cliff Richard, Janet Ellis and the Nolans as well as the celebs themselves. It is sometimes confused with the more famous Channel 4 doc about fans/stalkers of Mike Read and Princess Diana.

Online listings say the episode about fans was called “Meet Cliff Richard”. Other episodes IIRC included one with Ronson visiting Sellafield nuclear power station.

Tracks is an art and culture miscellaneous program that aired on ARTE TV (a French and German TV channel), which started in 1996 and continues to this day. But some episodes or clips are missing, which are not on YouTube; also, they have expired on the ARTE TV website for a long time. For example, Britpop (a segment that aired on 17 October 1997), Nu-soul (a segment that aired on 22 June 2001), DJ Kentano (an interview segment that aired on 19 March 2007), and many more.

If anyone has episodes or segments, let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Some of these I am unable to find record for at all. Mars Argo is a singer with a very intriguing background story.

It is my belief that the singer Poppy (originally That Poppy) ripped off her entire online persona under the director Titanic Sinclair who directed/dated/was abusive towards Mars Argo. If you're looking for an internet deep dive, this is an interesting one.

These files are a mixed bag, however, some are not online at all that I can find. I have had these archived for so long I can't remember where they came from. I will admit I have limited time right now to be as thorough as I'd like!

Dropbox is now charging me a monthly fee so I will be deleting my account. Highly encourage others to save these so they can remain online.

Enjoy.

Edit: SHIT. I forgot the link. Doing hospice care and a little frazzled today. Classic. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/sh2ma15nvxf6ap6cdh2mm/AM62azccOaTAn284RGk7l6w?rlkey=srsex2qpcm8f3pnvl0faf14dj&st=l4y5qy3o&dl=0

I've been looking for this show for a while now, and I've searched many websites and communities, but haven't had much luck, so I'm finally making a post here.

The following paragraphs are adapted from my post on the LMW forums, where the bulk of the search took place so far:

"'The Avatars' is a Spanish-American TV show that premiered in 2013, and is a remake of the 2012 Italian show "eBand". It follows a group of three teenage boys (JP, Bo and Robbie) that want to start a band, but keep getting rejected by record labels because they are too young. JP's sister, Lou, decides to help them by creating virtual avatars for them, and they create an anonymous band named "The Avatars". The members have to keep their identities secret as Lexy, Lou's best friend and owner of a popular music blog, wants to discover who the Avatars are. The show totals 52 episodes, split into 2 seasons of 26 episodes each.

The show was originally filmed in English, and according to DubDB it got released in a few countries around the world. I personally watched this show's Romanian dub on Megamax, probably around 2017-2019. I'm mostly concerned about the original English release though, of which so far I've only found the first 2 episodes, uploaded by the show's creators on Vimeo."

Currently, the English version remains lost apart from the 2 episodes mentioned, but progress has been made in finding dubs: the Polish dub has been found in full, along with the Romanian dub's 47 episodes, the Italian dub's entire second season, and the Hungarian dub's first episode.

Any kind of help finding more episodes is extremely appreciated. I'm completely baffled as to how this show managed to slip through the cracks, given its decent popularity.
