It's ironic you name Captain Midnight/Vrillon episode as your biggest mistake, but that was the very first episode of Oddity Archive that I watched and got me to sit back and watch the entire series and subscribe.
Happy Thanksgiving! Seeing an Oddity Archive episode today reminds me of when there used to be a lot more parades shown on U.S. t.v. than just the Macy's one. Maybe you could could do an episode on that sometime.
As far as I know, PBS stations are allowed to use cuss words on the air according to the FCC, and Canadian stations can use cuss words on the air from 12-am to 5-am, according to the CRTC. Cable stations can use also can use cuss words. (A Law & Order: SUV, used the F-Word on USA...)
You also said the Rajway, NJ was not easily accessible through Google earth but I found it pretty easily. But good job! I still enjoy all your episodes.
There's one for Volume 2. During Ed (Geno Cuddy)'s diatribe about UAV, you forgot to bleep out an f-bomb. Then again you mentioned it in the description. CORRECTION: Geno said Telefunken TED.
I've done some reading up on Lulu from the Qube episode -- it really looks like it was a one-off and a parody of a lot of the problems of the format. The weird scene of Lulu and Mr. Ohio sitting in silence with the writers complaining was clearly a joke. As is the fact that the show wasn't named Lulu -- it was called The Chicken That Ate Columbus.
I didn't realize before, the intro is 42 seconds. Most television professionals try to keep it to 30 seconds. UA-camrs can usually stand about 15. I hope your view count isn't truncated by going to such great lengths.
Having watched the Max Headroom and Capt Midnight/Vrillion episodes recently, you seem a lot more disinterested in the topic than I've seen in horror UA-camrs when they discussed the topics.
I'll post 8 years later (although I'm sure I'm not the first) and remind you that Holland is NOT a country, 2:40. The country is called The Netherlands, which contains Holland, and the Dutch people. Update of fails: 3:50, that is NOT how you use the word "literally". That is NOT what it means. Continuing on: 8:30. This may seem pedantic, but it's actually important, as I will explain. The abbreviation for Hertz is "Hz," NOT "HZ." Case becomes important to avoid confusion such as MHz being megahertz, and mHz being millihertz.
Oh yeah, I remember the early "angry" days of UA-cam (when it was uer generated and not piracy). I think there are basically 2 reasons for that, James found major success with the AVGN character and everyone wanted to ride that wave with scripted content, and there was now a public platform to speak your mind and most people who have something to say tend to have something angry to say.

That was the first episode I saw too
Love that you are willing to critique yourself for your subscribers. I really respect that. Brilliant video as always
i thought that the way you absolutely ripped into those casino videos was great
Thanks for the special, Ben. Love the show. Happy Thanksgiving!

+Mr. EAS I mean, to be fair, there is an Arthur episode about curse words.
As for this episode, I might have subtitled it, "Oops, I made a mistake, that's all!"

At 4:54 , I hear "I feel like I got hit by a truck", but not "looks like you got foot prints on it". Happy late Thanksgiving, BTW.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Greatest miss was changing the main theme. I prefer Senses Working Overtime.
But copyright, blah blah blah, I know.
But there's nothing wrong with Pavanned either. It's not that big of a loss.
CookProductions1 Yeah, but I have a softer spot for 80s alt-rock.
don't get me wrong though, Senses Working Overtime is a fantastic song.
If it was just cut down to the last part where the slow notes happen and the weird actor and actress appeared, it'd be better.

Keep up the good job, benny boy.
i love "oditty archive"
10:45 D -isney- ! AH, that...
Scary logo was the first episode I watched and I got sucked into this channel

i enjoyed them all, maybe you could redo some of the episodes like maxhead room with a more experienced eye and be happy with it.

mistake in this video: the country is not called Holland it is called the Netherlands
Eksellent!
