Invader Zim seriously only had 27 episodes?!?! WOW I felt like it was so huge! Maybe that’s just my nostalgic feelings for it. Either way, I probably saw all of them at least once.
It has been already confirmed that The butcher was just a confusion, in reality it was just a locomotion short Locomotion was a channel dedicated to adult animations. That and the fact that Locomotion sounds similar to Nickelodeon explain it all
And fun fact, Locomotion premiered and aired the first 7 seasons of South Park in LATAM when it still existed, long before moving to MTV given that Comedy Central didn't exist in LATAM until 2012.
When I think of what "The Butcher" actually is based on the description, I'm reminded much more of the Canadian short film "How Wings Are Attached to the Backs of Angels" rather than "Butcher's Hook".
Just a little correction, SpongeBob as a series itself premiered on May 1, 1999, not the episode shanghaied. The episode came out sometime in 2001/02 I believe
Finally, the Lost Media video Blameitonjorge never done on his channel. (He done Disney and Cartoon Network, but you finish the Big 3 with Nickelodeon)
Something that might make an interesting episode is lost musical loops on software like Garageband, Logic, and others. I can think of a number of loops that have been removed over the years, some of them only surviving in projects I made before they were taken out. A series of loops like "___ drum beat" or something will jump from 1 to 9 to 27 because all the ones in between are now gone.
What about the original cut of _Rugrats Go Wild?_ Originally the film was planned to be a television film, but test screenings were so positive they reworked it as a theatrical film. Ironically, the theatrical version wound up being shorter than the planned TV version, and one character that was cut was voiced by LL Cool J. It's entirely possible the original cut only existed in unfinished/animatic form, as it would be weird if a fully animated film just never saw the light of day (apart from Ralph Bakshi's Hey Good Lookin', which _was_ fully completed but never released), but it's still an interesting story nonetheless.
Let's not forget about the original version of the Hey Arnold movie - sure it got made eventually as the Jungle Movie but I'd be curious to see more content from the original version
@@CaptainJZH I think a 4:3 uncropped version of Hey Arnold The Movie exists but hasn't been released. They literally gave it the Simpsons on FXX treatment when it came to converting a TV movie into a theatrical movie.

There's one super obscure segment on Nick that I can't believe can't be found anywhere on the internet. I remember back in like 2004-2005, there was this interview with Butch Hartman on future Danny Phantom episodes where he shows a few animations, including Fright Knight. However, in this early concept art, he had a pumpkin for a head as opposed to the helmet with the darkened face that we ultimately got. I also remember him hinting at the title of 4 future episodes, two of which were Fanning the Flames and Shades of Gray. I know this is extremely niche media but my brother and I were hardcore Danny Phantom fans at the time and this was exciting for us. Fast forward to now, I talked to him a few weeks ago about this and he clearly remembered that segment because of how cool we thought the concept art was. I tried googling it but was unable to find a single trace of the video or art. Not sure if anyone has any recollection of this or something similar. Thought it would be cool to see it again. Great video!
Dude I had no idea Finn Wolfhard is a lost media enthusiast that's pretty dope(I also wonder if he watches you or BlameitonJorge). Great video as usual Mike! Nickelodeon lost media is something that you don't see full videos on. So I actually had a copy of j-14 magazine and it actually mentioned Gibby(this issue came out before Sam and Cat was announced)

Unless the star is upside down it's just a common magic symbol, with some ties to Paganism IIRC But you're probably too deep in believing in baby-eating lizard people or something
honorable mentions: An airing of The Rugrats Movie featuring commentary from the Rugrats themselves but All Grown Up. Noah Knows Best. An live action sitcom starring Phillip Van Dyke(the second voice of Arnold from Hey Arnold!) in which the entire show is found but its in Russian making an odd case of lost media. Music Video Split Screen Credits. Basically Nickelodeon made AMVs that serve as promos to shows that were coming up next. Slowly but surely they being found but a few are still missing.
I wasn’t born until 2002 but I swear I remember watching the episode of SpongeBob in its full entirety on tv, even though there’s no way I would’ve seen it live
You're not the only one. I remember seeing the entirety of the episode as well, including the two alternate endings. I was born in 1997 and the episode aired in 2001, which would make me very young at the time, but I remember being around 8-9-years-old at the time, not 4-5. Some people have suggested that I watched it from a VHS or DVD, but I've never owned any _SpongeBob SquarePants_ media, so it had to have been a rerun.
In México, nickelodeon aired the special & Squidward was actually the winner there HOWEVER like the video mentioned the public acces chanel usually re-raned the episode with all the endings at random
I also just remembered! rather than the phone number, the episode had bumpers made between the comercial segments where they ask you to vote ON THE WEBSITE! so yeah, that election was legit lol
I remember when Canal 5 showed those live action segments I was quite surprised as I had never seen them on Nickelodeon (even Canal 5 itself hadn't shown them until that moment) I really didn't expect this channel to end up showing something that was a lost media
As for the Zim thing, if I remember correctly someone said it used to be available on UA-cam (?) in like 2008 or something. Obviously it's not on UA-cam anymore but it goes to show someone has (or at least had) it
That Butcher short appearing around the same time as a Canadian cartoon makes me think that it aired on O Canada, which was a block on Cartoon Network for a short while.
I have a feeling there's a lot of lost unproduced media for Rise of the TMNT, considering Nick bullied the creative staff to cut the second season in half. Oh, and thanks for NOT restating the "Kurt Cobain wrote an unused Ren and Stimpy theme song" myth for the thousandth time. That's how you can tell this is a quality channel. Besides, ol' "I hate everything made past the early 60's" (not counting the obvious) John K wouldn't have used anything that sounded like Kurt's stuff.
It's interesting how a channel that was a part of so many childhoods can have this much lost media. In particular re: All That, another part of it might be that licensing issues make it difficult to release episodes officially. When it was being rerun on the 90s Are All That block and its successors, the musical performances were cut out.
@All Things Lost 16:43 Correction: The You Wish Special/Shanghaied actually aired on March 9, 2001 as part of its second season, not May 1, 1999. Help Wanted was the premiere season 1 episode of SpongeBob SquarePants and it aired on May 1, 1999, as a sneak preview following the Kids Choice Awards. Had to point that out Mike. Good video anyways! 👍😊
I have a distant memory of watching the Shanghaied episode of SpongeBob in Mexico as a kid. And it just so happened to be in English and was the version where Patrick won the last wish. It was a long time ago when I saw it on TV, but I don't think I can fully remember what was said. 😕
There's an animated SpongeBob Got Milk commercial that aired for a short time on Nick back in 2001 as a tie-in to the Shanghaied You Wish special. Sadly, only a single screenshot of it has been found and it's on the SpongeBob Wiki. I'd definitely recommend this to be the next Holy Grail of SpongeBob lost media finds!
I remember an ad campaign nickelodeon did in 2007 where Patrick and Larry the lobster ran for president. It all culminated on president's day where a live broadcast for the vote count took place. Patrick swept Larry in the end, and 7 episodes starring Patrick followed immediately after. I specifically remember the broadcast calling Patrick after he one, and it sounded like they just called Bill Fagerbach on his personal phone line without giving him a script with terrible audio quality and awkward line deliveries. I have yet to find a recording of the event and the only proof of its existence is a page on the spongebob wiki and a few screenshots.
Does anyone remember Nickelodeon Sports Theater with Shaquille O'Neal? It was a series of 5 TV movies hosted by Shaquille O'Neal that premiered on Nickelodeon from 1996 to 1999. Each one told an inspirational sports story. I've been able to find 3 out of the 5 episodes: Four Points, Broken Record, and Give & Go. The episodes entitled First Time and Scrubs appear to be missing, so I think this qualifies as another example of Nickelodeon lost media. Great video btw.
@@Arg69420 The Four Points episode is split into five parts on UA-cam. The Broken Record and Give & Go episodes are on Dailymotion. I wasn't able to find the other two episodes though.
Invader ZIM 3D pilot = a short clip that can be found probably in a video game as an ad (on GameCube) Spongebob Squarepants "Shanghaid" episode endings in English = can probably be found here in Canada IDK where because it aired live in the early 2000s on YTV and I even got to vote for Spongebob. You may be able to track down a link to the website on a forum somewhere.
What happens in America apparently takes a few more years to happen here in Canada it seems. Contact some Canadian companies and you'll probably find most of the lost content easily.
Great video and keep it coming please! My suggestion would be Kids’ WB! lost media. I know there’s some and I’m a huge fan of Kids’ WB! Ty again and keep up the awesome work please!
shanghaied was one of those episodes i had on vhs, and as soon as i learned how to work the vcr, i wore the tape down lol. i don't remember the contest, but i remember being really confused why the endings were different on the vhs than on the tv. same with the episode where squidward got covered in gasoline and lit on fire
I was at the filming for the pilot of Guts. I was 7 or 8, and there were a ton of technical problems with the bungie. They did complete the shoot but it took a long time; we weren’t expecting this as we were waiting for the tour but got pulled out of the queue to be an audience member. We got the time and date for when it was supposed to air, but we didn’t recognize any of the contests. I watched that show religiously as a kid and never saw the episode I was at. I’ve always wondered if there is a lost test pilot for Guts. Those pieces of fabric the audience were whipping around with the contestant’s colors were washcloths 🤣
Little correction,The you wish episode aired on March 9, 2001. You can tell by the animation style, this was already when the switched to digital,post season one.Because SpongeBob first aired may 1st 1999.
I never watched as much Nickelodeon as my brothers did growing up, my parents were a little edgy about their content (my dad especially, who *prohibited* us from watching Spongebob Squarepants for reasons unknown). That being said, Drake & Josh and iCarly were two of the fewest Nickelodeon shows I was into back in the day and I must've missed out on All That. I had no idea Gabriel Islegias had anything to do with it! Not a huge fan of his, but I loved when he appeared on Modern Family a few years ago (especially since season 9 of MF is sadly a very underrated season).
@@NemesisOgreKing yes, but I don't remember if that was the reason. All I remember is him threatening to block Nickelodeon from our DiSH if we were caught watching while he was around. I vaguely remember them having a bias against Rugrats too, but we never cared much for that show anyway. I think in general their stance against the crazy, gross humor and surreal side of Nickelodeon had a lot do with it. In fact, as far as I know, my family was exposed to Nickelodeon and it's preschool block Nick, Jr. only because my mom used to record The Elephant Show and Richard Scarry from there and The Charlie Brown & Snoopy Show (which was also recorded, but not as often) was the only really appropriate Nickelodeon show that wasn't on Nick, Jr. that my parents approved of. Allegedly, my brothers secretly got away with watching all the cool stuff while I was mostly cottled with the kiddie stuff (typical youngest sibling issues) and PBS.
What about 101% Whizbang? It is a programming block hosted by Henry and June from the Nicktoon "Kablam!" whos pre-show segments revolve around fall related topics. It first aired in September 1999, before being discontinued after October 29th of that same year.
There’s 2 things I want to find. One was a skit from All That where a bunch of characters get stuck in an elevator. I think it was from season 10 or the one season 11 episode from 2005. And the other was a skit from The Amanda Show called The Wrestlebergs. I remember them somewhat but would love to actually see them.
It's ironic in a way that this video came out a day or two before the revelations from Jenette McCurdy revealed what many people knew all along 5 years ago .. the Dan "The Creator" was and is a creep. I forgot if it was reddit or someplace else that had listed a bunch of scenes that he had written, which was specifically obsessed with young ladies feet. And here, in the stills from the Gibby pilot, produced by "The Creator" there are 4 kids standing there shirtless. Yikes!
You should do a video talking about some of the lost media from Nick's early years, so much of the early history of the channel and programming and promos are completely lost due to lack of available home recording options and viewers at the time
I’m curious as to what the gibby spin-off would have been like but I’m not disappointed in it’s cancellation. Gibby’s charm was that he was weird and goofy, him being the mentor/wise character wouldn’t be as funny. It’s the same reason Dwights pilot from the office failed. I do wonder why it was shelved if it was already filmed
@@flowerzforsaturn probably before since like the pilot is from 2012,Sam and Cat was teased in like really late victorious episodes (late 2012-early 2013)
Can you please maybe do a video talking about the lost 1974-1977 "Spidey Super Stories" Spider-Man skits from the Electric Company? They were live action segments from the show that were later adapted into short comics, some of the episodes with the skits were reissued in dvd box sets while some skits were edited out of the re-releases and have never been re-released due to rights issues. One of these lost segments that was also adapted into a comic was "Spidey Meets the Funny Bunny", which featured a black woman as the president, and is apparently the first ever portrayal of a black woman as a fictional US president. I've never seen any lost media UA-camr talk about this so I would really love if you could slightly cover it and maybe spread awareness of it
The Bow Wow episode of All That actually aired in other countries, so it's available online. But the Brie Larson episode being a mystery is unfortunate considering that she was arguably the most famous musical guest in the final two seasons and obviously because a future Oscar winner taking such a "soon to be has-been" slot would now be considered hilarious or even iconic by some.
It’s probs going to be released since Nick has basically made the whole thing available in clips. But this has been lost for over 20 years. I think it’s one of those old pieces that is going to be found.
Wow this is just crazy I did not know there were scary episodes of Double Dare as well as an alternate episode of SpongeBob called You Wish that's pretty interesting and scary if you ask me! I really truly hope the Invader Zim and Gibby pilots will be found in some way shape or form in the future because I want to see how those shows started out before the shows came out (except the Gibby show of course because that never came out once).
I was about to say an episode of Ned's Declassified was lost media for a while but it's shown up on Amazon and Netflix. It was "Music Class/Class Clown" and was not in many streaming services for a while. I never understood why. I kind of thought maybe it was because Everclear music was used. But yeah, for the longest time I thought it was another fever dream episode.
I have an interesting topic that’s both lost TV and lost Music. In the 60’s, there was a tv show called The Monkees, about a band, who in real life would later become a real band. In every episode, there would be sequences featuring their songs. But when they reran the episodes, they replaced the songs with newer songs by the band, some which were unique unreleased mixes. Some of these replacements have turned up, but others haven’t. I don’t know where you could fit it in, but it would be an interesting topic, and one I think needs more attention. Here’s a video that will explain it more clearly: m.ua-cam.com/video/21WKWmpvFMw/v-deo.html
@@employee4272 plenty actually. I just covered the most prominent. There’s missing commercials, probably tracks, at least one filmed music sequence which has never been released in full. There’s a litany, but it doesn’t get talked about a lot.
@@morbwilbury1685 Wow. I guess it makes sense, given the time period and all. Just caught me off guard, because I used to watch reruns in the same breath as catching the new iCarly episode, so I guess i never thought too hard about their age lol. That's wild
Not totally related I think, but one of the most recent episodes of better call saul features a Monkees demo of tapioca tundra, idk how rare it is but I can't find it on streaming services
Does anyone know what the clip at 6:10 is? I was talking with my boyfriend about a Nickelodeon short that involved kids interacting with a massive, creepy bird puppet, and it only seemed to air during Halloween or Thanksgiving. My boyfriend showed me this video and as soon as this clip showed up I knew it wasn’t a fever dream or something I made up. EDIT: I FOUND IT! It’s called Attack of the Killer Vulture. Even 10+ years later this short gives me the creeps.
i had to do a double take at the beginning of this video bc he started talking abt finn wolfhard and stranger things and i was like wtf i can't even escape my own obsession on unrelated videos it's EVERYWHERE
nobody talks about Pink Floyd are you ready yet? Basically former Pink Floyd member syd barret made a song and so they performed it. But then syd Barrett changed up the beat they would perform it and syd would always say “Have you got it yet?” Syd changed it over and over after they would perform the song he would say “Have you got it yet?”. The band never got it after a while. They never worked with syd ever again
Yup when people bring up All That they usually mean the 90s version. Not the early 2000s one even though I watched it more as a kid i knew that one would be lost
Maybe we could ask Canal 5 to air Shanghaied via twitter, and get some people to record it? I sadly don't have any equipment to do that myself. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY you can change the language to english on the tv settings, it works i've done it before.
For really long time, there was this bizarre short on Nickelodeon called Ted the Head. I thought it was lost media for years. It creeped me out tremendously. It was about a head in high school. I think Nick themselves eventually uploaded it a few years back. Anyway, that's my pointless anecdote.
in my opinion i think the spongebob missing segments are easy to recover, some cable company allows you to switch the audio to english, besides canal 5 usually airs ealy spongebob seasons
I remember watching this episode of All That as a kid featuring the Sugar and Coffee sketch bringing a botanist onto the show and they feed his fern sugar and coffee then it grows a mutated face and starts talking. What I saw is a kid, I thought it was extremely funny I was dying laughing for several minutes😂😂 In the recent years though, I've been trying to find that episode and sketch, but now that I realize a lot of episodes of all that have become lost media, I feel like I may never see it again or at least anytime soon 😭😭
The Endings that you said are available on Various DVDs are actually only available on one. That being THE FIRST 100 EPISODES DVD from 2009. And it's 2019 Rerelease
I was born in 2003, 2 years after the episode originally aired and, for some reason, I hazily remember Patchy’s parts in Shanghaied. I could be remembering incorrectly.
I remember I said this before but that episode of double date…the kid with the brittle bones…it’s kinda screwed up that his parents let him on that show. If you know your child has a disease that makes his bones very weak and thin why let him even go on in the first place? Like even if he lied they could have just said “no your not doing this” because obviously he would have gotten hurt. Also it’s not like they let him do it for the money because that show gave out small amounts so the kids could keep all of it without being taxed so…pretty neglectful on the parents part
The fact that not only do the endings copy eachother, the winning scenes copy too. Patchy knocked down by Potty and reads it on the floor = The Dutchman's finger angle Patchy doing the winner first = SpongeBob reminding characters they need to wish for something Patchy reading the note correctly or upside down = the different wishes The same music that plays when the winner flag shows up = Them getting eaten by the Dutchman.
I'd love for all of the episodes of forgotten sitcom Noah Knows Best to surface, some weren't even aired in the U.S. but were aired overseas(but alas only a foreign dub of one of the unaired episodes has surface so far)it was the last Nick sitcom to premiere on SNICK. Also i'd love to have all of the missing season 2 and 3 episodes of Romeo found, the original 1990 pilot of Salute Your Shorts "Welcome to Bunk 13"(which had a very different cast from the rest of the show) and the rare 1989 show Teen Angel(not to be confused with the 1997 ABC series of the same name).
There's a part of me that could've sworn that Nick used a snippet of the 3D test animation from the Zim pilot in bumpers on the channel Nicktoons. But I might just be mixing it up in my head with other stuff I saw on there, and being a huge fan of the series as a kid.
Brooooo I’m also covering Nickelodeon lost media soon haha

Zim being on Nick is still so strange. It's got more of a Cartoon Network vibe. It's like Metroid being a Nintendo franchise
Metroid isn't really that odd for Nintendo if you look at it's early days. It was comparable to Zelda in style back on the NES.
Funny, since both Invader Zim and Metroid are about killer aliens

Some people have suggested that I watched it from a VHS or DVD, but I've never owned any _SpongeBob SquarePants_ media, so it had to have been a rerun.
I would actually like to see the other SpongeBob ending re-runs
I think it'd be fun if it was random everytime.
In México, nickelodeon aired the special & Squidward was actually the winner there HOWEVER like the video mentioned the public acces chanel usually re-raned the episode with all the endings at random
I also just remembered! rather than the phone number, the episode had bumpers made between the comercial segments where they ask you to vote ON THE WEBSITE! so yeah, that election was legit lol
I remember when Canal 5 showed those live action segments I was quite surprised as I had never seen them on Nickelodeon (even Canal 5 itself hadn't shown them until that moment) I really didn't expect this channel to end up showing something that was a lost media
I'm a simple lady.
I see Invader Zim, I click!
As for the Zim thing, if I remember correctly someone said it used to be available on UA-cam (?) in like 2008 or something. Obviously it's not on UA-cam anymore but it goes to show someone has (or at least had) it
That Butcher short appearing around the same time as a Canadian cartoon makes me think that it aired on O Canada, which was a block on Cartoon Network for a short while.
refreshed just in time to see this banger
Lost media hunting and watching is so much fun until it’s for a series you enjoy 😔 I will never give up on zim 3d test being found
There's a pilot made We Bare Bears creator called Pudding Toast that was shafted during production.
I have a feeling there's a lot of lost unproduced media for Rise of the TMNT, considering Nick bullied the creative staff to cut the second season in half. Oh, and thanks for NOT restating the "Kurt Cobain wrote an unused Ren and Stimpy theme song" myth for the thousandth time. That's how you can tell this is a quality channel. Besides, ol' "I hate everything made past the early 60's" (not counting the obvious) John K wouldn't have used anything that sounded like Kurt's stuff.
I remember seeing the Invader Zim pilot when it finally aired, that was interesting.
It's interesting how a channel that was a part of so many childhoods can have this much lost media. In particular re: All That, another part of it might be that licensing issues make it difficult to release episodes officially. When it was being rerun on the 90s Are All That block and its successors, the musical performances were cut out.
@All Things Lost 16:43 Correction: The You Wish Special/Shanghaied actually aired on March 9, 2001 as part of its second season, not May 1, 1999. Help Wanted was the premiere season 1 episode of SpongeBob SquarePants and it aired on May 1, 1999, as a sneak preview following the Kids Choice Awards. Had to point that out Mike. Good video anyways! 👍😊
As a SpongeBob fan I cringed majorly at this... but still forgive him
He's really stupid ya know?
I have a distant memory of watching the Shanghaied episode of SpongeBob in Mexico as a kid. And it just so happened to be in English and was the version where Patrick won the last wish. It was a long time ago when I saw it on TV, but I don't think I can fully remember what was said. 😕
now we need a cartoon network lost media episode
There's an animated SpongeBob Got Milk commercial that aired for a short time on Nick back in 2001 as a tie-in to the Shanghaied You Wish special. Sadly, only a single screenshot of it has been found and it's on the SpongeBob Wiki.
I'd definitely recommend this to be the next Holy Grail of SpongeBob lost media finds!
The commercial has already been found, and it aired before You Wish.
Another lost media video from my favorite lost media youtuber!! 💕✨
❤️❤️❤️
Fun fact: Lorne Michaels (Creator & Producer of SNL) was the one who got Kenan on All That
I remember an ad campaign nickelodeon did in 2007 where Patrick and Larry the lobster ran for president. It all culminated on president's day where a live broadcast for the vote count took place. Patrick swept Larry in the end, and 7 episodes starring Patrick followed immediately after. I specifically remember the broadcast calling Patrick after he one, and it sounded like they just called Bill Fagerbach on his personal phone line without giving him a script with terrible audio quality and awkward line deliveries. I have yet to find a recording of the event and the only proof of its existence is a page on the spongebob wiki and a few screenshots.
Does anyone remember Nickelodeon Sports Theater with Shaquille O'Neal? It was a series of 5 TV movies hosted by Shaquille O'Neal that premiered on Nickelodeon from 1996 to 1999. Each one told an inspirational sports story. I've been able to find 3 out of the 5 episodes: Four Points, Broken Record, and Give & Go. The episodes entitled First Time and Scrubs appear to be missing, so I think this qualifies as another example of Nickelodeon lost media.
Great video btw.
Do you have any footage or image you have?
@@Arg69420 The Four Points episode is split into five parts on UA-cam. The Broken Record and Give & Go episodes are on Dailymotion. I wasn't able to find the other two episodes though.
Invader ZIM 3D pilot = a short clip that can be found probably in a video game as an ad (on GameCube)
Spongebob Squarepants "Shanghaid" episode endings in English = can probably be found here in Canada IDK where because it aired live in the early 2000s on YTV and I even got to vote for Spongebob. You may be able to track down a link to the website on a forum somewhere.
What happens in America apparently takes a few more years to happen here in Canada it seems. Contact some Canadian companies and you'll probably find most of the lost content easily.
BTW the "Gibby" pilot did air on YTV as a short clip. It was bad! It's lost for a reason lol
Great video and keep it coming please! My suggestion would be Kids’ WB! lost media. I know there’s some and I’m a huge fan of Kids’ WB! Ty again and keep up the awesome work please!
Now I kinda want to hear what Mark Hamill's take on Zim was.
shanghaied was one of those episodes i had on vhs, and as soon as i learned how to work the vcr, i wore the tape down lol. i don't remember the contest, but i remember being really confused why the endings were different on the vhs than on the tv. same with the episode where squidward got covered in gasoline and lit on fire
16:29 I’ve never notice that Squidward’s shoulder disappears. Wow. I guess I couldn’t tell over a CRT TV at the time.
What’s cooler is that some lost media might have never existed, and it was all just a Mandela effect but we’ll never know
I was at the filming for the pilot of Guts. I was 7 or 8, and there were a ton of technical problems with the bungie. They did complete the shoot but it took a long time; we weren’t expecting this as we were waiting for the tour but got pulled out of the queue to be an audience member. We got the time and date for when it was supposed to air, but we didn’t recognize any of the contests. I watched that show religiously as a kid and never saw the episode I was at. I’ve always wondered if there is a lost test pilot for Guts. Those pieces of fabric the audience were whipping around with the contestant’s colors were washcloths 🤣
Little correction,The you wish episode aired on March 9, 2001. You can tell by the animation style, this was already when the switched to digital,post season one.Because SpongeBob first aired may 1st 1999.
Yes, he got it confused with the series premiere date
Came here to the say the same thing lol. Glad ya'll caught that.
That SpongeBob episode did not debut in May 1999. I'm pretty sure that's when the series premiered. That episode wasn't until a few years later.
I never watched as much Nickelodeon as my brothers did growing up, my parents were a little edgy about their content (my dad especially, who *prohibited* us from watching Spongebob Squarepants for reasons unknown). That being said, Drake & Josh and iCarly were two of the fewest Nickelodeon shows I was into back in the day and I must've missed out on All That.
I had no idea Gabriel Islegias had anything to do with it! Not a huge fan of his, but I loved when he appeared on Modern Family a few years ago (especially since season 9 of MF is sadly a very underrated season).
Were your parents religious? Some religious groups think SpongeBob promotes Homosexuality for some dumb reason.
@@NemesisOgreKing yes, but I don't remember if that was the reason. All I remember is him threatening to block Nickelodeon from our DiSH if we were caught watching while he was around.
I vaguely remember them having a bias against Rugrats too, but we never cared much for that show anyway.
I think in general their stance against the crazy, gross humor and surreal side of Nickelodeon had a lot do with it. In fact, as far as I know, my family was exposed to Nickelodeon and it's preschool block Nick, Jr. only because my mom used to record The Elephant Show and Richard Scarry from there and The Charlie Brown & Snoopy Show (which was also recorded, but not as often) was the only really appropriate Nickelodeon show that wasn't on Nick, Jr. that my parents approved of. Allegedly, my brothers secretly got away with watching all the cool stuff while I was mostly cottled with the kiddie stuff (typical youngest sibling issues) and PBS.
What about 101% Whizbang?
It is a programming block hosted by Henry and June from the Nicktoon "Kablam!" whos pre-show segments revolve around fall related topics. It first aired in September 1999, before being discontinued after October 29th of that same year.
I hope finn watches this
Me too 😭
I really want to see the full Man on the Boat episode. It sounds too goofy to keep it stuck in Nickelodeon's vault.
There’s 2 things I want to find. One was a skit from All That where a bunch of characters get stuck in an elevator. I think it was from season 10 or the one season 11 episode from 2005. And the other was a skit from The Amanda Show called The Wrestlebergs. I remember them somewhat but would love to actually see them.
I remember that Wrestlebergs skit too. What a weird memory.
It's ironic in a way that this video came out a day or two before the revelations from Jenette McCurdy revealed what many people knew all along 5 years ago .. the Dan "The Creator" was and is a creep. I forgot if it was reddit or someplace else that had listed a bunch of scenes that he had written, which was specifically obsessed with young ladies feet. And here, in the stills from the Gibby pilot, produced by "The Creator" there are 4 kids standing there shirtless. Yikes!
You should do a video talking about some of the lost media from Nick's early years, so much of the early history of the channel and programming and promos are completely lost due to lack of available home recording options and viewers at the time
I’m curious as to what the gibby spin-off would have been like but I’m not disappointed in it’s cancellation. Gibby’s charm was that he was weird and goofy, him being the mentor/wise character wouldn’t be as funny. It’s the same reason Dwights pilot from the office failed. I do wonder why it was shelved if it was already filmed
I think they probably replaced it with Sam & Cat
@@darealepic that’s what I was thinking but I wasn’t sure if it was made before or after Sam and Cat. Either way Sam and Cat wasn’t that great either
@@flowerzforsaturn probably before since like the pilot is from 2012,Sam and Cat was teased in like really late victorious episodes (late 2012-early 2013)
Can you please maybe do a video talking about the lost 1974-1977 "Spidey Super Stories" Spider-Man skits from the Electric Company? They were live action segments from the show that were later adapted into short comics, some of the episodes with the skits were reissued in dvd box sets while some skits were edited out of the re-releases and have never been re-released due to rights issues. One of these lost segments that was also adapted into a comic was "Spidey Meets the Funny Bunny", which featured a black woman as the president, and is apparently the first ever portrayal of a black woman as a fictional US president.
I've never seen any lost media UA-camr talk about this so I would really love if you could slightly cover it and maybe spread awareness of it
Babe wake up Mike dropped another video
The Bow Wow episode of All That actually aired in other countries, so it's available online. But the Brie Larson episode being a mystery is unfortunate considering that she was arguably the most famous musical guest in the final two seasons and obviously because a future Oscar winner taking such a "soon to be has-been" slot would now be considered hilarious or even iconic by some.
17:41 funnily enough Squidward won in the original Latin American Nickelodeon airing so Spongebob's winning clip is currently lost dub
All Stranger Things Lost
Man I really want the lost Blues Clues pilot.
It’s probs going to be released since Nick has basically made the whole thing available in clips. But this has been lost for over 20 years. I think it’s one of those old pieces that is going to be found.
I know right; why would they have released only clips?
Wow this is just crazy I did not know there were scary episodes of Double Dare as well as an alternate episode of SpongeBob called You Wish that's pretty interesting and scary if you ask me! I really truly hope the Invader Zim and Gibby pilots will be found in some way shape or form in the future because I want to see how those shows started out before the shows came out (except the Gibby show of course because that never came out once).
I was about to say an episode of Ned's Declassified was lost media for a while but it's shown up on Amazon and Netflix. It was "Music Class/Class Clown" and was not in many streaming services for a while. I never understood why. I kind of thought maybe it was because Everclear music was used. But yeah, for the longest time I thought it was another fever dream episode.
Its pretty funny that "Canal 5" appears in a video of lost media
I have an interesting topic that’s both lost TV and lost Music.
In the 60’s, there was a tv show called The Monkees, about a band, who in real life would later become a real band. In every episode, there would be sequences featuring their songs. But when they reran the episodes, they replaced the songs with newer songs by the band, some which were unique unreleased mixes. Some of these replacements have turned up, but others haven’t. I don’t know where you could fit it in, but it would be an interesting topic, and one I think needs more attention.
Here’s a video that will explain it more clearly: m.ua-cam.com/video/21WKWmpvFMw/v-deo.html
I still wonder about the time-travel aspect of [1980s Movie] where George Clooney pretends to be Rob Lowe.
Man, there's lost media regarding The Monkees?
@@employee4272 plenty actually. I just covered the most prominent. There’s missing commercials, probably tracks, at least one filmed music sequence which has never been released in full. There’s a litany, but it doesn’t get talked about a lot.
@@morbwilbury1685 Wow. I guess it makes sense, given the time period and all. Just caught me off guard, because I used to watch reruns in the same breath as catching the new iCarly episode, so I guess i never thought too hard about their age lol. That's wild
Not totally related I think, but one of the most recent episodes of better call saul features a Monkees demo of tapioca tundra, idk how rare it is but I can't find it on streaming services
As a journalist and editor, i found this UA-cam channel fascinating💯💯💯💯
you are one of the bigger channels so I think you are legit a channel he watches.
it's like the Steven universe voice loving yugioh tas.
That would be so coooool
I remember watching that SpongeBob episode. Always thought it was another of their specials never lost media. Gracias Mexico lindo y querido 🇲🇽
This video was amazing, keep up the good work!
Does anyone know what the clip at 6:10 is? I was talking with my boyfriend about a Nickelodeon short that involved kids interacting with a massive, creepy bird puppet, and it only seemed to air during Halloween or Thanksgiving. My boyfriend showed me this video and as soon as this clip showed up I knew it wasn’t a fever dream or something I made up.
EDIT: I FOUND IT! It’s called Attack of the Killer Vulture. Even 10+ years later this short gives me the creeps.
i had to do a double take at the beginning of this video bc he started talking abt finn wolfhard and stranger things and i was like wtf i can't even escape my own obsession on unrelated videos it's EVERYWHERE
nobody talks about Pink Floyd are you ready yet? Basically former Pink Floyd member syd barret made a song and so they performed it. But then syd Barrett changed up the beat they would perform it and syd would always say “Have you got it yet?” Syd changed it over and over after they would perform the song he would say “Have you got it yet?”. The band never got it after a while. They never worked with syd ever again
Yup when people bring up All That they usually mean the 90s version. Not the early 2000s one even though I watched it more as a kid i knew that one would be lost
Big shotouts to the SpongeBob dub of my region of LATAM for uncovering those lost Shanghaied live action segments.
Finn's just a regular dude lol. He also watches Vinesauce.
16:45 wait the show premiered in 1999, the episode premiered in 2001
Maybe we could ask Canal 5 to air Shanghaied via twitter, and get some people to record it? I sadly don't have any equipment to do that myself. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY you can change the language to english on the tv settings, it works i've done it before.
Looks like ATL is back at it again with another banger, time to drop everything I'm doing for the next 18 minutes.
For really long time, there was this bizarre short on Nickelodeon called Ted the Head. I thought it was lost media for years. It creeped me out tremendously. It was about a head in high school. I think Nick themselves eventually uploaded it a few years back. Anyway, that's my pointless anecdote.
in my opinion i think the spongebob missing segments are easy to recover, some cable company allows you to switch the audio to english, besides canal 5 usually airs ealy spongebob seasons
Finn has 3 major pluses for me as a person now: musician, Game Grumps fan, and lost media fan. He's the best boy, that's for sure.
*"My name's Jeff"*
(a) guy named Fin. G.Er
I remember watching this episode of All That as a kid featuring the Sugar and Coffee sketch bringing a botanist onto the show and they feed his fern sugar and coffee then it grows a mutated face and starts talking. What I saw is a kid, I thought it was extremely funny I was dying laughing for several minutes😂😂
In the recent years though, I've been trying to find that episode and sketch, but now that I realize a lot of episodes of all that have become lost media, I feel like I may never see it again or at least anytime soon 😭😭
The Endings that you said are available on Various DVDs are actually only available on one.
That being THE FIRST 100 EPISODES DVD from 2009.
And it's 2019 Rerelease
Hey hey, don't completely bash Brie Larson's singing chops, she leads the best song in Scott Pilgrim vs the World.
"Welcome to the good burger, home of the good burger, May I take your order."
Whoa I completely forgot Nick Cannon and Gabriel Iglesias were on all that!
I was born in 2003, 2 years after the episode originally aired and, for some reason, I hazily remember Patchy’s parts in Shanghaied.
I could be remembering incorrectly.
17:43 ALSO on México's nickelodeon I remember thats where I first watched it
I remember I said this before but that episode of double date…the kid with the brittle bones…it’s kinda screwed up that his parents let him on that show. If you know your child has a disease that makes his bones very weak and thin why let him even go on in the first place? Like even if he lied they could have just said “no your not doing this” because obviously he would have gotten hurt. Also it’s not like they let him do it for the money because that show gave out small amounts so the kids could keep all of it without being taxed so…pretty neglectful on the parents part
The fact that not only do the endings copy eachother, the winning scenes copy too.
Patchy knocked down by Potty and reads it on the floor = The Dutchman's finger angle
Patchy doing the winner first = SpongeBob reminding characters they need to wish for something
Patchy reading the note correctly or upside down = the different wishes
The same music that plays when the winner flag shows up = Them getting eaten by the Dutchman.
I'd love for all of the episodes of forgotten sitcom Noah Knows Best to surface, some weren't even aired in the U.S. but were aired overseas(but alas only a foreign dub of one of the unaired episodes has surface so far)it was the last Nick sitcom to premiere on SNICK.
Also i'd love to have all of the missing season 2 and 3 episodes of Romeo found, the original 1990 pilot of Salute Your Shorts "Welcome to Bunk 13"(which had a very different cast from the rest of the show) and the rare 1989 show Teen Angel(not to be confused with the 1997 ABC series of the same name).
There's a part of me that could've sworn that Nick used a snippet of the 3D test animation from the Zim pilot in bumpers on the channel Nicktoons. But I might just be mixing it up in my head with other stuff I saw on there, and being a huge fan of the series as a kid.
16:28 just noticed squidward's sleeve disappears for a split second lol
Invader zims pilot was an interesting one being honest
Love how the end of the intro implies that SpongeBob is a media genre
Need to find lost Figure It Out episodes...
