I can't believe you haven't done a video on that MTV show called "Dude, This Sucks" where a group called the "shower rangers" sprayed a bunch of people with liquid poop and pee. MTV got sued and it was never aired. It has the 2 classic Whang elements: Lost Media and Poop

About Fucking time you hit a million. Been watching for years now wondering why the rest of KZfaq hadn't caught on to your stuff.

Pumpkin Madness 2 is the pumpkin short. I'd post the youtube link but it's pretty easy to find if you search the title. My mother luckily was able to remember it when I asked her. We used to watch it on VHS like 50 times around halloween.

The pimple one is the first time I've ever heard a lost media story on this channel and it 100% sounding familiar to me.

Actually, taking a quick look at the "short films by short people" released by Nickelodeon so far, another one that is missing (I think) is a short film about a boy living some tall apartment complex, he tries to practice playing a brass instrument (I think a tuba?) but can't do it anywhere without annoying people in the complex. Eventually goes into a dark basement to play, and finds a bunch of other residents also practising there, and they proceed to play together. Was this a Nickelodeon thing? A Short Films by Short People thing? Or has it been released and I'm just misremembering it?

On the topic of the pimple short, I also recall this short and specifically remember being completely repulsed when the pimple popped. However now I watch Dr pimple popper and shock videos for fun so obviously it didn't bother me that much

Google Search has been bogged down by payed spots, ad links, and filtering that its hard to find older content. Stuff that would have been pulled by google 10 yeas ago is non existent. But other search engines seemingly don't have that issue.

There's something so spooky about lost media, idk if it's the content that sometimes hits different or the obscurity.

I have my own lost media! I was on some mtv show as an audience member with a friend. Guy host was blonde with short spiky hair. Around 1997-99 The scene was on Venice beach and he was being shot from a human canon into the sea. I swearrrr the show had a single name like “kablammo!” Or something maybe? I’ve looked all over different mtv show lists and nothing rings a bell! The friend I was with would totally remember, as she was very familiar with the show at that time, but I didn’t have mtv then, and knew nothing of it. I DO have a pic of us with the host, but it never helps people remember the show☹️ ( it was definitely MTV, as they gave us these gray shirts with the mtv logo on them to stay warm on that cold beach day)

I love the snake portion, Whang explaining the game as a ghost playing on a laptop goes "fuck!"

I promise you the new shoes short was absolutely real. I remember seeing it in 1995-1996 at a babysitters house that always had nick junior and Sesame Street on loop. Anyone that remembers this short would remember that rolling meatball short. A short about a meatball rolling off a picnic table or so, and rolling around the city and ending up at the same spot or on a plate.

The pimple one reminded me of that one episode from Doug where he gets a pimple and is tormented by it (in his imagination at least, since the pimple talks and even tries to flirt with Patti, iirc). My first guess was that the guy asking about the short had mixed that up, but seeing there's more people talking/asking about it too then I guess it is its own separate thing.

I remember the short about the new shoes from an episode of Eureeka's Castle, which aired on the Nick Jr. block. No faces were shown in the bit. I remember the girl humming "In the Hall of the Mountain King" from Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite as her mom was buying her some new shoes, followed by a montage of the young lady essentially destroying her new shoes while an orchestral recording of "Mountain King" was playing. At the end her mom says that she needs new shoes. Eureeka's Castle was known for having live action bits scattered throughout the show.

That first one sounds like the Life With Loopy short “Goop on the Loose”. Given that episode is about a wart and not a pimple, but the Angela Anaconda comparison seems to line up.

My grandparents may still have my copy of the pumpkin short. Came out where I live on DVD. It’s about a cat prowling about on halloween night and seeing how all the Jack-O-lanterns come to life. There’s a witch that stops them performing some ritual at midnight. The cat stops them, they all disintegrate and the cat goes home. It’s not stop motion, it’s 2D but it is janky.

There's one Nickelodeon commercial I've been looking for that's sort of lost - there's a version on youtube, but it's not the version I remember. It's apparently from 2002 and is referred to as the "Ultimate Nicktoon" commercial, as the commercial involves a bunch of Nickelodeon characters fighting to catch a ball to claim the title of ultimate nicktoon. It's in a Japanese/anime style and the characters use various unique powers. The key difference in the commercial available online and the one I remember is the voice-over. The whole reason I remember this commercial is something Patrick Star says: "Behold, the terrible Patrick "Danger" Star! I said behold!!!" I thought that was funny as a kid and I've been quoting it with my sister ever since. But when I tried looking for this commercial, I could only find a version which didn't have those lines at all. He just says "Krabby Patty power!" as he powers up and that's it. Edit: also, I did find at least one other person online who posted about remembering the same version I do, so it isn't just me.

The entire 100 nights to try the mattress before deciding to keep it makes me feel uneasy. You know A LOT can happen in a bed over the course of 100 nights... And you best believe they don't just throw them out when people decide not to keep them, thats bad business and a loss of money, they with out a doubt "refurbish" and resell them.. No telling how many body fluids are in there.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that for those of us who grew up in the 90's that "lost media" used to be the norm? It was so awesome finding something you saw air once and told your friends and finally getting to show them and vise versa! Now (mostly) everything is preserved and I'm not saying if it's better or worse. But! That's what was special about that time. Having your friend SWEAR to you they saw Liu Kang drop a MK arcade on him as a fatality, or your friend SWEAR that one time Steve Austin actually had a wall of glass break when his music hit before an entrance. Or my friends saying some shit like, "Dude, stop talking about Surf Ninjas. There is no movie where they play real fights on a game gear, it's not fucking real!" I think this is why we all love lost media so much, finding these things is always so awesome.

I remember watching Nickelodeon shorts... but I mean the early stuff. Stuff from the late 80s and early 90s. Like the one with the chefs talking about how they're going to use a frog to prepare their meal. Unique animations, Canadian humor, and slime. That's the Nickelodeon I remember.

The River City Ransom shop music during your sponsored ads never fails to kill me.

The pimple short reminds me of an episode of "Life With Loopy" from the show KaBlam!

Anyone remember "Yoink of the Yukon"? Old Cartoon Network short or show from the 90s. This video made me think of the old cartoons I used to watch, and Yoink was a mountie so it made me think of Canada, and Canada made me think of "The angry beavers" because they are Canadian. I don't know, but seeing this particular video just brought back a lot more memories than I was expecting... In a good way. I think Yoink was a Cartoon- Cartoon, and I seem to remember that the Angry beavers was from Nickelodeon.

Regarding the girl with the shoes short - yes it exists. I used to see that on Nick a lot. Around '96 makes a ton of sense, as I was watching a ton of Nickelodeon shows at that time, but not really in the years prior to that. One detail I remember from that short is that the girl started describing the different seasons and what she'd do with her shoes during them. During the Winter, she'd have her shoes on, but also have boots on over them, which I found to be really odd and thus probably why this short sticks out in my memory.

The first second of this video is on par with Mr. Crocker saying the "NEGA-CHIN." NEGA-LODEON

Not having nickelodeon until 96 is crazy, i live in shit hole vermont that is always behind on getting stuff and we had nickelodeon in the late 80's like 87-89 maybe

Okay, that Jack-o-lantern description gave me the absolute most vivid recollection- I know I've seen this. But, to me, it sounds like the opening to The Halloween Tree for some reason? Maybe it was on TV and not a movie- and it's just something similar in my brain. It's not impossible my memory just sucks. The colored smoke rising out of the pumpkin splattered by a car the morning after just rings such a specific bell of memory 😭

With the pimple short, has anyone considered Kablam? This sounds familiar af and I used to watch the hell outta that show. But I stopped watching Nick long before the late 90s.

There's this movie I've been trying to find for almost 15 years. It's a romantic movie. It's about a homeless guy that draws and when he draws it kinda comes to life. It looks similar to take on me by aha. It's definitely from the 90s. He falls in love with a girl that isn't homeless. He was kinda more of a panic pixie and she was kinda plain. Wish I could find it.

We finally got Whang to 1 million subs. It's about damn time! Congrats, good sir. You deserve it.

The first one also reminded me of the Dave the Barbarian episode where Candy fell in love with her talking pimple

As soon as you mentioned the girl jumping into puddles and the gum i instantly started having flashbacks of her picking the gum and fragments of the rest. Its crazy how memory works. i also didnt have nick untill 2000.

Damn, for *_Ibid,_* that snake game, Whang didn't include what I emailed him about: it was also on a product of the short-lived company *Micro Star,* _"300 Great Games for Windows 95"_ (that actually did have a few great ones I fondly remember, like _Castle of the Winds)._ That cheap CD was sold in the US (where I remembered playing _Ibid)_ as well as another "300 GG's for Win98" one. The thing is, that company's business was just stealing other peoples' software, and as a result, they only lasted a few years. What put them under was, instead of stealing small fries' games, they made a compilation of fan-made Quake maps and sold that as their own, and got sued into oblivion. What was comically funny and frustrating is about two weeks before Whang did the "snake game" video, my mother had found exactly that old "300 Games" CD in the original beaten up box in an old computer desk, and asked me if it was worth keeping, and I almost said "yeah" but then I thought "nah, I know all of the _actually good games_ on that I can find online, toss it out". What timing, though.

I only remember Oh! Yeah cartoon about a girl, who had a family of pimples on her nose. She was waiting for a date with a boy and they appeared, starting all like "Hey, we now live on your nose... We're gonna be such good friends". There was a montage of fading parents teachers telling her "Don't pop the pimples it's bad, blah, blah, blah" and one of them was one-eyed best friend who was like "Gross... Can I touch them?" Eventually girl pops them, pimple family was very happy about getting their heads to fly off, girl got to go to date only to find HER BOY HAS THEM TOO!

The only thing I can think of with the first one is the Invader Zim episode where he had that giant Zit; he named it Pustulio or whatever, that exploded in the end with a flood of pus. Given that people are remembering something with a very different description, and that Invader Zim was popular had plenty of weird and fucked up stuff (dark harvest) that were memorable, I am not putting my money on that episode being it, but I may as well mention it anyway

I could be wrong, but I vaguely remember that pimple short being included on a VHS for Rugrats back in the day. I think it might have been a Season 1 VHS tape, but it's been so many years that I'm not sure.

So I've done some research into these Nickelodeon lost archives. As it turns out Viacom probably does have a copy of everything that was ever on nickelodeon. The problem being is licensing issues. A lot of it they can't redistribute because they don't own licensed to for the license is expired. Prior to the creation of Paramount plus which hosts all of the new Nickelodeon and old Nickelodeon content, I was part of a group of people who were trying to preserve early and previously lost Nickelodeon TV shows. One of the most popular that was completely unavailable was 15. There were no VHS releases no DVD releases. We reached out to Viacom multiple times trying to get an answer to whether or not the show still exists in the archive. We never got a response. I did however connect with somebody who claims to have worked at the Nickelodeon studios. Their claim is that everything was archived. Once Nickelodeon became Nickelodeon from the previous Network called pinwheel everything was locked away in their fault. Later that metaphorical vault would have been purchased by Viacom in all contents transferred to them. Again, I cannot confirm any of this 100%.

I think I vaguely remember the pimple one but I am 100% positive I remember the one about the shoes. It didn’t sound familiar until the line about it being okay to walk home as long as the shoes don’t get dirty. As soon as I heard that it all came flooding back. I know it was on Nick and in the 90s but I can’t lock down a year.

oh my god! justin! you finally hit 1 million! proud of you man, been with the channel for a while now and excited to see another million and so on!

Why does Nickelodeon always have the weirdest lost media?lol

Nickelodeon was notorious for re-using bumpers and shorts. It's entirely possible some of these can be found in the early-mid 90s recordings. I can recall all of these shorts stories myself, and watched it in the early 90s. Not much, but it may help knock something loose in someone's memory

The pimple skit could have been in an episode of "Weinerville". They also had animated shorts and a lot of human/puppet people.

I definitely remember the pimple thing. My first thought was KaBlam.. There's a segment called "Life With Loopy" I think it could be from that.

The one with the girl with the shoes sounds the most familiar....like I remember the girl wearing a raincoat with a hood on it and the puddle of water either saying "play in me, or jump in" and being animated like a finger beckoning her. She looks down at her new shoes, but the Puddle keeps at it..until she gives in. I faintly remember it being stop-motion, or at least a cartoon. I don't remember gum though....

I remember the new shoes skit. Another detail was her climbing a fence that separated the sole from the shoe and her shoes were hot pink

The Jack O'Lantern short is definitely out there online. Or, at least, it was. I remember it airing when I was a kid and I stumbled across it again many years ago while trying to find the name of another Halloween special. it's only a few minutes long. In the morning when the pumpkins are destroyed, I remember a Jack O'Lantern rolling into the water and exploding. And there's a moment when the narrator explains that some of the Jack O'Lantern's go out big and others sputter out (I don't remember the exact words) and we see one pumpkin blow up with a big explosion and another that has several small firecracker pops. I wish I could remember where I found it. You could try posting the question on Kindertrauma. They specialize in nostalgic scary stuff. EDIT: Could it have been a segment on an episode of Turkey Television?

Hey, I've been a long time fan and I'm so glad you still make content, all the times I've laughed, went wide eyed, and nearly vomited will always be in my memories, thanks Whang.

I have my own lost media story. In elementary school around 1998 I went on field trip to a milk processing plant, and at the beginning of the tour we watched an educational video about the benefits of milk. The characters in the video was a talking milk carton and a guy dressed as either a professor/scientist or a college graduate with a cap and gown. The guy was live action and the milk carton was a puppet.

Surprised that nobody has mentioned that the Jason Vorhees hockey mask in the back ground looks like it is making googly eyes at you every now and then due to it being in front of one of the 8bit screens.

The mention of short films by short people helped me find my own forgotten piece of media: the attack of the giant vulture

Nickelodeon lost media is always interesting

I’ve been looking for the pimple one for forever! Or at least one very very similar. I remember the girl was getting ready for some kind of date, and the pimple kept antagonizing her. I remember every time she tried to get rid of it, more would show up. I also remember a random scene where the pimples were singing?? However, I remember it ending differently, she finally gets rid of the pimples, her date shows up, but now he’s covered in the singing pimples!

Funny enough, I'm Mack King, and i was the one who requested the Night of the Jack O Lanterns! im so happy you read it, somehow i didn't notice you had in this video for 2 YEARS though!

Holy cow you just opened a core memory!! I can visualize this and remember it! Couldn't tell you what it's called though! I also remember a short of a man tripping over into a box and he starts running, it was such a soothing sound when he was running. It would come out during the Nick Jr. time blocks.

Side sleepers unite. Also you need a 1million sub special !

Love your videos! I was browsing the list of your Lost Media videos and this one caught my eye because.... I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING For THE DAMN NICKELODEON PUMPON HALLOWEEN SPECIAL! I am 32, born in 1991. I remember some kind of halloween special with talking pumpkins. It was not a cartoon.... Your reference of stop animations sounds accurate for that one. I was very young but for some reason I remember one of the pumpkins or main pumpkin being named "Pumpky". I felt so validated when you brought up the Nickelodeon halloween shit... I, too, have searched for this and every time I find literally nothing. It feels like a fever dream but it's the Nickeodeon Lost Media I am most desperate to find. If it indeed came out in 1988, I can see how it would be replayed in the earlier 90s. My memory of watching this was in an old house before we moved. I moved in first grade, so I would have seen it before 1997. I'm glad someone else has already mentioned this to you. They had more memory to go off of. It didn't seem to be a commercial or bumper, I think it was its own thing. Anyway, the fact you even mentioned it is wild. It lives rent free in my head.

There was one book I remember from my elementary school library that had beautiful if somewhat frightening illustrations. It was about a small Chinese village about to be attacked by Huns. A small old man wanders into the village and tells the elders that he's really a dragon and will repel the Huns away if they give him food and a place to sleep. The elders laugh at him and kick him out, but a young boy takes pity on the old man and lets him sleep in his house and gives him some rice. Then next morning, the old man blows the Huns away with just his breath, then transforms into a dragon in front of the whole village. I remember the illustrations of the Huns being particularly scary as a kid.

Voodoo Vince background music let's gooo

8:30 thats the snake game that came as a default program for yabasic on the ps2. It was a simple programming game that came on a demo disc you got with the ps2.

There was an episode of AAAH Real Monsters! that featured a talking pimple. It was a traditional animated show, but it did have a very unique visual style

Please add more footage of your editor in future videos, it's really cool

With how many times people claimed to have seen some of these, undoubtedly they are at least on recorded VHS tapes somewhere.

Anyone remember a cartoon short where school kids would pop their heads out of windows in an old-style school; complain/talk to their British granny-type teacher, only to have the class idiot do something stupid, get reprimanded, and reply with only the one-word phrase, "wut." Over and over again. The cartoon would normally end with the class idiot spraying Elmer's glue everywhere. I remember it was a bumper for the show "Recess" often. Somebody's gotta help me with this, that distinct "wut" was a running gag in my house forever. Even my mom remembered it and she's drugged out 99% of the time; if that scummer can remember - someone else has to.

6:43 sounds a bit like Snowmen at Night. That came out in the early 2000's though. The author made another book in the same series called "Snowmen at Halloween" which would better fit the pumpkin thing, but that came out in 2019.

I thought I was remembering this lost media, but I was actually remembering the Amanda Show pimple. Instant relief for my curiosity.

Loving the Voodoo Vince music!

I remember there was an episode of wizards of waverly place with talking pimple

i feel like i missed out on so many of these lost media things just cause my family never had cable growing up

It was a commercial for acne medication I think.

Fun Fact: Justin Whang is probably following someone you know on Instagram

My sister and I still quote parts of the short films for short people animations. My favourite is “cake’s done! Spaghetti anyone?”

I rember an old bumper thing from the late 2000s about a little girl recount the story of how she embarrassed herself during soccer practice. The whole thing was in cgi and the reason that it stood out to me for so long is the way all the characters were designed, they were made to look like the little player peices you'd find on fuseball tables. Ive tried to serch for it for years and I still couldn't find it.

Bro that comment about not having nickelodeon until 1996 really hit me hard. I couldn’t imagine that. You missed out on so much.

CONGRATS ON THE MILLION DAWG!

I definitely remembered that "Attack of the Hideous Pimple" short. It has an artstyle similar to Angela Anaconda, but the plot setting is more like a cliche 50's monster movie and the voice acting are done by British kids (possibly the origin of the short is in the UK). One notable scene of that short, is the foam puppet pimple gets bigger and bigger as it swallow the girl's crush and another kid too, before it's destroyed by a scientist whiz kid/hero with radioactive hands.

I remember the shoe one. Coming on during the elephant show. But I think it was during a commercial break. I also remember her climbing a fence and tearing the shoe.and dropping ice-cream on them too

Didn't that pimple thing happen on a "Life With Loopy" episode too?

The "cke" in that first "Nickelodeon" sounded a bit close to a "ga"

My holy grail of Nickelodeon Lost Media.... I want to know where that "Lost Episode Of Ren and Stimpy" commerical went? Some other people HAVE to remember this, right? I can't find any videos of it anywhere on KZfaq, making me believe no one saved it... but for about 2 weeks leading up to the infamous delayed episode Black Hole/Stimpy's Invention, Nickelodeon ran commercials constantly for what they called "The Lost Episode Of Ren and Stimpy" that they were going to be airing out of season, and wanted to make sure no one missed it. The commercial began with "Just when you thought it was lost, Nick found it..." and would go on to hype it up as a lost release that was being brought out, and it ended with a small preview of the Happy Happy Joy Joy dance from the end of the episode. As a bit of an obsessive R&S fanatic, and researcher, i've been looking for this commercial for ages since the day I first saw it. I'll never forget it. The thing is, that it's rare and no one seems to have recorded it, as far as I know, because it only ran for about 1 week or 2 weeks leading up to the premiere of Black Hole/Stimpy's Invention being aired after the original season 1 had ended, because of the well-documented delay of the episode in which John K was micro-managing the episode and taking way too long to get it done, thus missing it's original airdate by several months. I remember being incredibly hyped for this as a kid, even more so since it went on to be my favorite episode of the entire original Nickelodeon run. It's also INCREDIBLY important as a visual record of one of the most important events in the show's development, that illustrated the behind-the-scenes issues as well as the late airing of what many people consider the show's best episode. I really that ANYONE who recorded Nickeloden on VHS tapes at the time might have that commercial sitting on one of their old tapes somewhere. I used to have it as I taped almost every episode to VHS myself back in the day and caught part of the commercial too, but long since later, taped over it, unfortunately. If this were to turn up on KZfaq or something, i'd be really happy.

I remember these kinds of animations from Nickelodeon back then. Used to watch them alongside MTV. They were trippy and some of them freaked me out as a kid. Now as an adult, I appreciate their brilliance (or so I think) and I like to think that 80s-90s Nickelodeon/MTV was a springboard for animators as well as a less restrictive platform for macabre ideas.

Just in time for me to get some Whang!

You are the only KZfaqr I regularly watch who legitimately disappears from my feed. It’s like KZfaq is trying to erase you from my memory.

In regards to the short about the new shoes - I remember this, but I remember it as being a commercial for Converse All Stars. Thinking about it now, it doesn't make sense that they would advertise their products getting worn out immediately. But in my brain I definitely remember it as a commercial... but maybe it was advertising something else. Memories are so flawed.

I got excited wondering if my own Nickelodeon lost media that I sent an email about would get mentioned. It did not. One day... one day the whole dang internet will know about And Now This and I'll have that first part that's still missing. Set sail, white whale.

Any day with more Whang in it is a good day. :)

Was the pimple short referring to an episode of life with loopie? I think there was an episode about the brother having a pimple.

HOLY SHIT that pimple animation. I remember that, especially the radiation part! I'm not 100% sure, but the "radiation" was some kind of green paste. Funny because later in my early teens, recalling this animation, I attempted to stand in front of the microwave so that "the radiation would destroy my pimples" (I had no idea how microwaves work idk) It's so surreal to finally recognize something that's now lost media, this is the first time. I live in the Philippines too, and CN and Nick used to have shows that don't air here, crazy that I managed to see this one.

Always use duck duck go especially when searching for honest articles

Whang, no more Twitch or YT game streams? :(

The talking pimple short sounds like something from a variety show segment All I can think of that might fit is the Life with Loopy segment from KaBlam!

I 100% remember the kid with the sneakers short. It had to be late 80's/early 90's. I believe it was on a show called Eureeka's Castle. I wanna say the sneakers looked like pink Converse.

I thought you said “Niggalodeon”. You may proceed

"SFBSP" interstitials: One of those rare "Lost, but recently Found Media" that I wish would STAY lost forever especially the ones that showed me visual examples of the words "Cringe" & "Trauma". (Like for example, the short about the "future and how almost everyone/everything moves in stop-motion/pixilation" and the short where the kids ran away from then chased after and killed a bird that looks like a "rejected" Sesame Street character.)

I remember a show that had a puppet style and took place in a high-school, it included an episode I remember specifically where a dude gets so embarrassed he gets dragged to hell. I think the main character had a red jacket of sorts?

Niggalodeon

I KNOW yall heard that first word wrong lol

That description of the puppet pimple actually sounds like the Amanda Show. It was a sketch comedy show but also included segments with stop motion, that was one of them

That's the longest, most detailed description for a game I've ever seen, and it's for fuckin Snake.

Must be a strange coincidence but there was a short animated TV special in the UK called Pumpkin Moon from 2005, about pumpkins coming to life on Halloween night and flying around the town doing battle with evil 'witches'. There's also one scene where a candle from a pumpkin gets extinguished, losing its life source and falls onto a road where a car narrowly avoids it.

Lost Media is something I’ve always found to be interesting. I’ve heard of some stuff about certain shows, movies or specials that were on Nickelodeon at one time and then never aired or talked about much afterwards, so it’s cool to see you do a video on the topic Whang. Keep up the great work!
