KaBlam! was an animated anthology series that ran on Nickelodeon from 1996 to 2000. Despite its cult following, it has not been treated kindly by Nickelodeon over the years. Due to the many separate copyrights involved with the show, episodes and spin-offs have been withheld from airing on Nicktoons, withheld from airing in general and withheld from airing more than once. The episodes "KaFun" and "Just Chillin'" among others were thought lost until producer and artist Mark Marek revealed that he had all of the episodes on Beta tapes and posted them all in full length on his website. Here's June, who with her friend Henry were the animated cohosts of the show. Two types of plaid and high-top sneakers. It was the 90's! Kablam Just Chillin - YouTube

Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa is a 2002 American musical animated Christmas special. And it sucks. No nice way to say it. It was almost lost media itself. In the end credits, a sequel called Rapsittie Street Kids: A Bunny's Tale was threatened-er-promised. It was going to be released on Easter of 2003 but mercifully was not. There's evidence that this film was in fact completed, and even aired in some parts of the United States, but unlike its prequel, it has yet to be found. Jodi Benson, who lent her voice to Nicole, signed on. (Were royalties from The Little Mermaid not paying her bills? Threatened by the Mob? IDK.) Maybe Nicole learns to stop hoarding eggs and candy and gives some away dressed like a bunny. What the HELL is Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa? (WORST Christmas Movie Ever) - YouTube

In 1999, Spike Spencer and Tiffany Grant, both voice actors from Houston who had many roles in anime, video games, and movies at that point (as well as both working on Neon Genesis Evangelion), were commissioned by the City of Houston to voice in a PSA for the AIDS virus. The PSA sounded for all the world like their characters Shinji and Asuka were having sex. The PSA meant for radio never went to air. It would've been lost forever if Tiffany Grant hadn't found it on a cassette tape in a box while cleaning her room. Here's Asuka wearing a sexy version of her pilot suit. But not because she likes you! Baka. The Lost Evangelion AIDS PSA has been Found - YouTube

Originally, the 1992 Disney film Aladdin was going to have Aladdin's mother be a character. She would be a widowed rug maker who wanted her son to be honest above all else. There was going to be a song called "Proud of Your Boy" that Aladdin sings about his mother, but it got cut along with the character. It was a heartbreaking decision to make because it was one of the last songs Howard Ashman wrote. All good guys in the movie were dressed in purple and/or blue, so that's how I went with her. It looks like head coverings weren't the law in Agrabah, but married and widowed women may have done it. (Well, she thinks she's a widow.) Who is Aladdin's Mother?: Discovering Disney - YouTube

Charlie Brown's All-Stars is a baseball video game most likely based on the animated special of the same name, which is based on the Peanuts franchise. The game was being developed by FarSight Studios and was to be published by Namco Bandai Games for the PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable but ended up getting canceled before it was released. The game would have featured over 70 playable Peanuts characters (initially 30 were announced). It would have also had four party games: contests of batting, fielding, and pitching, along with a Simon Says-type game called "Lucy Says". I've already done Lucy with a football and Sally in her Christmas clothes and Snoopy as a flying ace. Here's Peppermint Patty ready to play baseball. They did make a game that was really more of a high tech pop-up book: Charlie browns all stars video game [WHOLE GAME] - YouTube

Weinerville was a variety series/puppet show that originally aired on Nickelodeon from July 11st, 1993 to February 17th, 1996. It was filmed at Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando, FL and was created by puppeteer and comedian Marc Weiner. Due to the decrease in popularity and copyright issues with the cartoons that would air alongside the sketches, Nickelodeon has only aired 4 episodes since 1997, thus making episodes very hard to come by. Weiner played all the puppet characters in Weinerville, many consisting of his head and a marionette body. One of the characters was Dottie, the mayor of Weinerville. (Hmm...I guess drag isn't detrimental to children after all.) Marc is usually forced to solve her problems, though sometimes she can get carried away with things if they don't get out of control. Looking back at the wig and how she was dressed, I think she may have been a parody of Hillary Clinton. Weinerville - Camp Idontwanna - YouTube

The Wasp's Nest is an early BBC television adaptation of the Agatha Christie short story of the same name. Broadcast twice on 18th June 1937, the adaptation was notable not only for being the first time an Agatha Christie story converted into a television play but also for being the only time where Christie herself was responsible for adapting her works for television. Like other early BBC television broadcasts, The Wasp's Nest was broadcast live and was not recorded. In this story, Hercule Poroit solves a murder mystery before the murder even takes place. James Harrington planned to frame Claude Langton for murder because he stole his girlfriend. Vogue fashion model Molly Deane is the woman in the middle of this triangle. (Yes, they had Vogue back in the 30's.) She's so shocked by the goings on she spilled her tea! Not the original play, but an episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot: Agatha Christie's Poirot S03E05 - Wasps' Nest [FULL EPISODE] - YouTube

For the month of April, I will be doing video game characters starting with....

"LE2, LE2!"

What is it, Midori?

"Can I be featured in your tribute to video game characters?"

Midori, you're not a video game heroine. You're barely a supporting character. For a game that isn't even finished yet."

"Oh, but you already did Yan-Chan in Love Nikki. And April 1st is the anniversary of the development of Yandere Simulator!"

Fine. I guess I can feature you along side Carmen San Diego, Sonya Blade and the princesses from the Super Mario games.

"Yay! I'll go e-mail Yandere Dev right now and tell him!"

No! Don't!
