It’s crazy that anything that came out recently can be considered lost media! An example of this is The Fairly Oddparents: Fairly Odder, which was a 2022 Live Action and Animation Hybrid, where it’s a live action setting, but Cosmo and Wanda are still animated, it was also a continuation of sorts to the original series, just without Timmy, because Cosmo and Wanda got set to a new, less animated family! It was exclusive to Paramount+, but recently got pulled from it for unknown reasons! Only one episode is completely found, while the rest are partially found!

Mushroom looks positively unsettling due to the choice of attempting realistic human faces on animals, but Toy House has a charming vintage cartoony look that aged pretty well.

Toy House looks like such a charming show! It has that loveable clunkiness to the animation, y'know? It holds this strong nostalgic feeling for me, even if I never grew up where it aired. I hope people are able to find more episodes of it soon!

From what I initially heard, Pulgasari was actually a North Korean film. In 1962, the North Korean leader (Kim Il Sung, I think) took interest in Japanese Kaiju films and wanted one made for North Korea. He apparently had a Japanese husband and wife director duo kidnapped and flown in, and he forced them to make the film. So, the North Korean film reel was indeed made and shown in theaters. However, it's unknown whether or not it's still in existence.

I'm glad that Mushroom Village has gotten coverage since I wrote the wiki article for it! I was drawn to it eleven years ago when looking at a list of Chinese cartoons (I'm from the US) and I could not stop laughing at the yellow hedgehog's poorly rendered face. The show was not shared online unlike most other Chinese cartoons. I wrote articles for other foreign language lost media, such as the unreleased 1970s Turkish animated film called Esop which has earthworm characters, and the Japanese web anime Kuwagata Tsumami.

9:50 It could be a mix of both. The poster mentions Filipino actors and shows screenshots of their faces, so it's clearly not just a dub. It reminds me of the American adaptations of Godzilla movies. Where they took the movie, dubbed it, and added extra scenes with American actors, basically adding an entire new subplot. This could be something similar and the actors on the poster might be the ones on the extra scenes.

If you ever do a video about lost games, I recommend mentioning Infinity Ring! They used to be browser-based games that were meant to be played with the book series. Once Scholastic removed the games, there was almost no way to play... And even the books suffered (as they would mention events only appearing in the games). I was a die-hard fan of the series and played 6/7 games, so I'm open to questions you might need!

I remember watching The Hopkins on Nick in the early 2000s. I wanted to enter that contest but my parents said no lol. The only episode I remember had something to do with a special chair everyone wanted to sit at while eating breakfast and always ended with a big fight.

Speaking of strange lost media, here's one I remember (possibly a Mandela effect) : A free trial version of Tasty Planet (2006 version) where 2 objects from a Picnic Table level are replaced by a disk and a Rubik's Cube. If anyone played Tasty Planet, you would understand that comment. I remember playing that weird version of that game in early 2010s.

Adding onto the kaiju section with my own two cents, there's another lost film in the genre that I've been particularly interested in. It's an Indian movie called गोगोला/Gogola that was released in 1966 and is quite possibly the country's only foray into the genre. All that we really have are a few bits of promotional material... and the original soundtrack, for some reason. Considering it's been roughly 57 years, though, I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually lost to the sands of time. (Also mileage may vary, but part of why this one film holds my attention is because of the Gogola suit, which I find endearingly goofy-looking lol.)

These international/foreign language pieces of lost media are fascinating to me. I wonder how many are actually out there and are just hard for English speakers to find... (I'm sure plenty of them are actually lost, though! Lost media is a worldwide thing)

Dude, in the Netherlands we also had this contest from Nickelodeon. A Family won, got like 5 episodes about 1 minute in length too. The family 'Maat' ultimately won, the series is called 'De Maatjes', I not even sure if there is any footage of it, but I remember it clear as day.

3:50 Sadly , it''s not that common for Chinese viewers to record contents from TV on tape at the time. (Also , there is a chance that this cartoon was broadcasted though some early days video steaming sites instead of TV......which make it less likely to be survive to today , as even if the site is still online , the content from that era are probably already gone.) And according to info I can gather (I'm from Taiwan , so I do know my way though Chinese infos) , The 10 episode that we saw today is most likely the only episodes that got released. (It's seem like the production company was planned to make 100 episodes (split into 10 batches , with 10 episodes per batch.) , but only the first 10 episodes was licensed by the National Radio and Television Administration (NRTA) of China , before the business licensing of the company was suspend.....) (Here is a thing about Chinese NRTA......basically , you have to got the license of production issued , before you start the production.) Source : Baidu Baike of the production company , and some open source data base for business licensing/registration/public record.

Has anyone reached out to the Hopkins themselves to ask if they have copies of the shorts? I feel like they would have likely been given something like that - or if not, would have gone out of their way to tape them considering their significance.

OH MY GOD!!! No way did I ever think I'd see myself in one of your videos 😭 Thank you so much for giving me credit it's very appreciated and I hope more attention on HahaNick can lead to more things being found!! I seriously respect you so much, you're one of the lost media GOATs thank you so much seriously ❤❤❤

toy house looks pretty interesting for early 90s CG... i hope all of it gets found someday. i also had no idea there was a recorded tape collecting community over there, much less a lost media community there too

“Hahanick” is one of the stupidest and greatest names of all time

5:25 Wait, does that guy straight up have a giant marijuana leaf design on his shirt? 😂

Toy House seems so so charming, I hope we can recover more of it.

Ok, that last topic was actually incredibly bizarre lmao

anyone else notice that one of the Ha Ha Nick hosts straight up has a giant pot leaf on his shirt?

you never disappoint us with these vids

I love your videos my friend. I'm hooked. It's great to see lost media that hasn't been talked about everywhere else. Keep up the good work.❤

omg i absolutely love the style of Toy House,, i really hope the rest of the episodes are found

At 5:24, there is a weed leaf and a bob marley artwork on the guys shirt in the skit. Omg funny how they either missed or allowed that. Was there a subculture in China regarding this at the time??

you know what I like it when a lost media channel talks about lost overseas media especially dubs. You don't really see people talking about that much

On the topic of lost media, I've been trying to remember this animated series (at least i think it was an animated series) from time to time. All i can remember is being about the daily lives of this family where the dad is a gorilla and the mom is some sort of animal caretaker and their two children (one boy and one girl) being a mix of gorilla and human in a sitcom style show. I really hope it isn't some kind of fever dream or I'm remembering wrong but it's been ln the backburner all this time

I imagine the Hopkins family themselves have some or all of the episodes. I know if I was made into a cartoon I'd save it.

The first topic reminds me of that film with the Globglogablab in it. Nice video

The Hopkins reminds me of another lost "Nicktoons Family" series called Meet the Moores, which was produced for Nicktoons UK. Unlike The Hopkins, there exists a full episode online of the Moores (uploaded by someone who worked on it I guess). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aaiCdq9k1qjaeGg.html

I am still trying to recover the TVO series, the Bod Squad. I used to watch that a lot as a kid and only a few episodes of this series have resurfaced on KZfaq but the vast majority of the series is still missing. It was on for over a decade and it existed in various incarnations. Sadly, my top two favorite incarnations (the movie parody one and the TV parody one) are still completely missing. I only found some snippets of the TV one from a video that serves as a demo reel from one of the actors that was in the show. I tried contacting some of the actors from the show but none of them have got back to me.

The Lost Media I'm currently thinking about is Saban's English version of the German puppet series "Hallo Spencer." It's somewhere in between straight up dub and reediting to change some of the context. Only about 4 episodes in really old VHS quality have surfaced, while quite a few of the original German series is available. And that's not even counting Saban's international distribution, which had several dubs of the series which seem to also be lost.

I have also heard that 1962 Bulgasari isnt even real, someone tried looking for the actors/actresses but didn't get any results for it, so there is the possibilty this is like A Day with Spongebob but for Kaiju media

Fun fact: The same studio that made Tales in Mushroom Village made another show called “Alien Visitors” Unfortunately the entire show is currently lost, the available content of this show is the trailer.

Great to see kaiju lost media mentioned! I'd love to see more brought to people's attention because kaiju media is something that I absolutely love. The one thing I would love to see found would be the Godzilla vs Gamera stage show, which only has a few pictures and a five second clip that's been found.

I love this channel so much!!!

Does anyone remember an old computer kid's game that took place in a tree? It was 3D animated and I think included characters from a show (could be wrong abt that)? You would go to different levels of a tree and each level had a different character with mini games. I remember an old tortoise that read books, and a sleepy bear level where you could change the weather and time of day. I've tried searching for it on google to no avail!! It was a very old game, probably made in the early 2000s or even 90s. I can't remember if it was a website or a CD game, but I want to say website since I would play it so often, but it could def be a CD game.

We need the LSSQ streams back

Hey LSSQ I think I remember a mini bumper from SpongeBob its called Learning with sandy it was like sandy explaining stuff/etc idk the rest but I remember it

I really want to see the lost cgi segment of the invader zim pilot!!! The full pilot is on youtube, but they also animated the food fight scene in cgi as a test and it’s become lost

I'm wondering if the Disney series called Ultra Violet and Black Scorpion is lost media now, because just like Fairly Odder, it too was pulled from Disney Plus, I have all the episodes saved to my DVR, until they get eventually deleted, that is. But, I don't think that I have any way to save them to my computer, let alone KZfaq.

The story of mushroom village is giving gaither's pond vibes.

nice video of lost media again!

Am I the only one who finds it weird that the Hopkins is lost?

nice I like the idea of HAHA Nick of having fresh bumbers and content makes the channel feel fresh

Funnily enough yonggary was remade in 1999 and is also considered partially lost. The version available today (sometimes known as reptilian) is an updated cut of the movie from 2001 with "improved" visuals.

2:35 time to bother snk if they had any(or some) development behind it

I can’t stop overwatching these!

Hopkins for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2! The Hopkins and Toy House look really interesting

Some lost media recommendation! No one is talking about this: قصص الأنبياء بالصلصال (the stories of the prophets in clay) I’m not sure if a search has been done but it’s worth a watch of the few episodes online

Still annoying to me that Adventures of Zorro's original English dub is lost. We have all the animation because of several dubs being completely saved, but only 2 episodes exist online in English. But at least it's looked for. The Fantastic Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor is not on any lost media site, and only has 2 episodes in English online. (I've found something like 9 episodes on KZfaq in Tamil, though.)

has anyone heard of “the tomfoolery show”? my nan said that it used to be one of her favourite shows, but only a few episodes can be found online.

I didn't know SMG worked in China. Man, no wonder they make weird content with Mario

Who up talesing their mushroom village rn

Toy House looks so much fun, hope it fully gets found and even gets a fan dub or sub

Hi lsupersonicq. Could you do a video about the song “everyone knows that”? It’s a lost song that only has 17 seconds of it available (despite the many fan extensions out there) and nobody knows who made it or where it ever was played (our theory is that it was in a tv commercial) so if you could do a video about it, it would really help the search.

And about bulgasali south korea back then was not the south korea we know today it was almost as poor as north Korea. many people left the country and it was considered on par with places like vietnam or nepal and it was also under a military junta so there was not much freedom. so its quite likely that it got lost.

I'm pretty sure Toy House was made some time after 1996, and not 1993 as some have claimed. One of the images the computer dude flashes on his screen a couple times is a demo render from the Kinetix 3D Studio Max demo suite, which was released in 1996. The only way they would have likely obtained this image is if they had it on file through the software itself, which would not have been possible until 1996. This also likely means the show was animated using this software; and I'd be surprised if they swapped animation software midway through production, as the animation is quite rough.

Hey LSuperSonicQ can you talk about a lost live action version of an anime called the laughing salesman? Only one episode has been found so far to my knowledge.

Wow! I never knew somebody would do a video about lost media from Asia!

I ordered Dominos, and now LSSQ uploads? There's gotta be a connection between LSSQ and Dominos.

I'm sorry but as an artist i can't take the name of that last one seriously because "toyhouse" is also the name of a character posting/roleplay website...

That mushroom village show is the most terrifying-looking cartoon I've seen about woodland critters.

5:25 WEED SHIRT

9:28 That user is Simon Santos of Video 48, a video rental and movie merchandise library/museum/shop, at the Ground Level, Mary Santos ARTcade Building, 48 West Avenue, West Triangle, Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines.

There's actually one mystery. I think you should do a video on The mystery of dubious depths. If you don't know what that is. It was a scrap zone from sonic CD. We only have bits of the level. Including the present theme. Remix versions of the bad and good future scene. And information from developers. As well as animation from the ending of sonic CD.

5:40 reminds me of when nickelodeon came to Belgium in 2002 they had to share a channel with mtv too. mtv has been here since the early 90s or maybe even the late 80s i guess fans of mtv hated it but similar channels showed up. nick broadcasted until 18:00 then it was mtv quite disappointing since school wasn't done until 16:00 so it wasn't much better as the kids shows blocks on local tv channels unless it was weekend .in 2006 or 2007 they got there own channel but by that time i came a teenager and didn't care about nick anymore.

How exactly does one use a wayback machine archive downloader??

Things that receive little attention in the lost media community: Lost music videos (Yes' Leave It is the most notable history). Lost foreign series (Chespirito's series are the 'Doctor Who' of Latin America). Unidentified songs (The Chapolin Polka is a long-running mystery).

I have a really unknown piece of lost media i've been thinking about for a while now... It is a website perhaps dedicated to the cheetos mascot and it involves a shop and really "futuristic" animations. I think it is somewhat like the way "U.B. Funkeys" visual style but played with a hub menu to direct you through different modes...

Love the animation

obsessed with the one guy's bob marley shirt with a giant pot leaf on it in that chinese nick block. also if the show Toy House really is from 1993 and the episodes are longer than 10 minutes, then it might be the reigning champ as the oldest fully produced CGI show! ReBoot premiered in 1994 and has been tauted as the oldest fully produced CGI show since it's original air date.

Watching an ad but im sure the video is great.

Toy house reminds me of pecola

Chinese lost-media must be especially difficult to find.

Just as a note, I'd specify North and South when discussing post 1947 media that pertains to Korea. If only because it makes it easier to know which part you're discussing.

Thank you. Something different!!

I love watching @LSuperSonicQ videos when he mostly talks about lost media it is very interesting too me

God I remember Hopkins….they’re main mode of transport was a wheelie bin

5:25 never thought I’d see a guy with a cannabis shirt tied to a Nickelodeon project

HE BACK🔥

Can a book count as lost media if multiple copies of said book still exist but they haven't been scanned and uploaded online? Just asking for future reference

4:31 "more surprising than anything Cartoon Network or Disney Channel were doing at the time" LSuperSonicQ has never heard of Disney Buzz, Studio D/Studio Disney, or Good Morning Raoul/The Raoul Show, all from The House of Mouse

Fr good video

Babe wake up lssq uploaded

They should have more animation contests.

Im not sure if u have the lost media discord but, a guy on their says that: He partially remembers a program in which it told kids about environmental issues in were a kid can understand it, yet the only thing he remembers on the show is that it shows, apartment building made of newpapers (with a giant sun in between them), and that it slowly zooms into one of them exposing the family that lives in it (with an apparent dinosaur creature, idk either,). And that in one of the episodes a small boy puts his sister foot in a bag for some reason and another one where they make a boat to transport rice. I hope someone find this for the guy. (miosaurio is his dicord name just so we can hopefully update him.)

Bit the cupid would have really fit here perfectly

The Mushroom village one makes me think about that one Aqua Teens qoute where Master Shake says "You look at him and tell me there's a god."

5:25 Whoa that’s a pot leaf, had to double check that one

Hello im looking for a mostly lost series made by David firth called jims story it ran from 1999 to 2001 only 2 epsoides have been found some clips as whell everything else is lost i know this is a extremely undocumented and obscure thing but i am on the hunt for the rest of this series

7:00 I think that's a weed leaf on his shirt lol

nice vid

great stuff

Lore of Strange & Bizarre Lost Media momentum 100

Where can I watch toy house? And can I download the videos from that website?(I would upload them on KZfaq)

YES THE OLD INTRO IS BACK I'M SO HAPPY

Does anyone know where I can watch the Wanju Zhi Jia toyhouse episodes that were found? Or is it not available to watch in America?

I cried when I saw Grampu in the thumbnail (like actually)

Something I would really like to see found is Secrets of the Cryptkeeper's Haunted House. It was a Saturday morning game show from 96-97 on CBS. There are a few clips and a couple episodes on KZfaq but aside from some articles and pages the show is basically lost. I made a post on Reddit that gained little traction and I have seen some discussion here and there but not much. I don't even see it mentioned on LMW which is surprising given it having a Wikipedia article.
