This show is much better than I remember it.

Definitely done because of the success of Star Wars and also, oddly, Upstairs Downstairs. Don't expect to laugh. You won't.

This Canadian sitcom was hastily assembled in 1970 to comply with upcoming Canadian content requirements and had an extremely limited budget for both time and money. 130 episodes of the series were produced, requiring scripts to be recycled from 1940s radio dramas, line mistakes to be kept in the finished product due to time and money constraints, and virtually the entire series shot from one small living-room set. As a result of the poor-quality end product, the series is often considered one of the worst of all time.

I watched this show religiously when it was on.

I love the Internet Archive so much.

Gorey, apparently, was a prolific sewer along with being an artist and frequently sewed toys, some based on his own creations.

In my opinion, one of the best concert videos, even if it isn't a live concert in front of an audience.

I know this has made the rounds online before but given it was just a demo tape for a format most have never heard of I figured it may still find new audiences here.

Source of the rip and more info on the format is available in this video.

Yes, really.

This is one of my all-time favorite plays and this is a terrific production of it too.

It's a very weird, but very entertaining play that is a satire on American culture and religion, but about a family that lives through various ages of human history as if they were contemporary or near-contemporary.

While the Antrobus family remains constant throughout the play, the three acts do not form a continuous narrative. The first act takes place during an impending ice age; in the second act the family circumstances have changed as George becomes president of the Fraternal Order of Mammals (apparent references to Sodom and Gomorrah but also to the Roaring Twenties), while the end of the world approaches a second time; the third act opens with Maggie and Gladys emerging from a bunker at the end of a seven-year-long war.

I'm almost certain that The Flintstones was inspired by Act I of this play, but I don't want to suggest that it's in any way like The Flintstones other than both being "modern stone-age families."

The restaurant closed less than a year later, but the memory of Pastamania lives on. In 2019, the Paul Bunyan animatronic inside the Mall of America's Log Chute ride was dressed up in Pastamania attire for Halloween.

The Gay Games are, in a nutshell, a multi-day sports event like the Olympic Games, but with an emphasis on LGBT+ participants.

A documentary/promotional video about the Ducks' founding.

The song "Rock the Pond" was later used in D2: The Mighty Ducks, but with 'America' replacing 'Anaheim'.

Volume 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uX18QvUR9Zg

A really good voice cast including Leonard Nimoy and Tippi Hedren.

With some surprisingly good animation quality for TV done by Dreamworks.

Assuming the video description is to be believed this was traded on copied VHS tapes, much like the original South Park shorts were. I enjoy the thought that edits like this have existed longer than many may realize.

I discovered this old VCD in my collection, and couldn't find any reference to it. Made by Hot Ramen Video from around 1997 or thereabouts, it is a video mashup of NGE and SP that has Angels appearing in our favorite hick mountain town. It also brags of an "appearance" by Apollo Smile (don't believe the hype). Not much of an NGE fan, but I"m a huge South Park nut, so I had to get this. And now, I'm looking to share this little oddity with other heads. Source was a VHS traded tape, so don't complain about the quality.

Obviously, I don't own any rights. Neither did they.

This is a two-tape set. Tape 2 is a little more in-depth, but both tapes are basically interviews with children and a comic book store owner about Pokémon cards.
