openSlice of Life Anime Girl and Guy Learn to Cook Together Anime
It's a slice of life anime. It's a girl who works at this little restaurant learning how to cook from this guy who she falls in love with but he's still learning how to cook too. I'm pretty sure she's good at kendo too. Its not hanasaku iroha or anohana or sweetness and lightening. I think the name is similar to hansaku iroha though. I watched it about 2 years ago I think but I'm pretty sure it wasn't new back then. It was on Netflix if I recall and it's only 1 season and 12 episodes. The MC has long black hair I believe and there is a scene where she goes to this cooking type conference because her love interest is there but they end up not finding each other or something. It's set in a small town and she works at a restaurant I believe or a small inn
openNeed help finding a cartoon
All I know about the cartoon is that it's not Recess or the Wayside School series but follows an identical premise. In one episode there was a class where the kids ran the class essentially, when one student was absent the teacher rubbed the name out and then rubbed it out even more because he was so terrified. I'm pretty sure the kids were grade school aged as well really young. Also that one episode had some sort of gag about that one class never following a fire drill but both the name and the plots of the rest of the episodes escapes me. All I know is that it was an animated show about schoolkids and that it's not Recess or Wayside School.
openNo Title Western Animation
It's a Looney Tunes short featuring a cat and a bird (NOT Sylvester and Tweety). Their owner asks to the cat that he shouldn't eat the bird while she is away, but he tries doing that anyway for the reminder of the short. At the end, the owner comes back and finds the house messed up... and the bird ate the cat.
openFailed Canadian maybe CGI pilot Western Animation
I remember stumbling online a failed pilot that was pitched for a Canadian channel, though I can't remember if it was pitch for Teletoon or YTV. The pilot was in CGI I believe (I could be wrong), with the characters looking like they wear a full body armor suit, and some of the promo images mostly having them stand next to a blue background.
openAnimated (flash) webcomic Webcomic

openvery weird magic anime Anime
I remember it was some sort fight scene. The protagonists (there were two, I believe) were fighting some sort of monster. I somewhat remember them being witches, magical girls or some sort of magically powered girls. I also remember a fourth, smaller "sidekick" type character. It was very dark, likely night time, and I remember it taking place in some sort of wasteland, or perhaps a forest. I do remember there being a large hole that a character was hiding in. I forget completely what the monster looked like, except for one detail; it having an appendage with a stinger on the end of it, I remember it looking sort of like Imperfect Cell's. However, the most memorable part, as well as why the clip was uploaded, was that when stung by the monster, the part of the protagonists body it hit would inflate/expand, I'm certain it hit one of them in the breasts, and I believe the other was stung in the butt. I know this makes me sound like a huge pervert, but it's been bothering me for a while.
openAudio Easter Egg in playstation 1 (?) game. Videogame
Playstation 1 was the first cd-based gaming system I can remember my family having when I was a kid, and one day I suddenly got curious about what would happen if you put a game disc in a CD player: Normally the answer is "nothing" of course, but in the case of the game I happened to try it with, the developers actually did put a short audio track on the disc: It was simply a few seconds of silence followed by someone saying "Hey, this isn't a CD that you listen to, this is a CD that you play!" (or something along those lines).

openWhat is that kids show called?

openEarly/Mid 2000s Animal Comic (North America) Print Comic
There's a comic from a children's nature magazine (National Geographic or Discovery or other) with adorable animal characters. One of the characters is a purple bat named Echo. What is the comic and/or magazine called?
openA trailer - Spanish accents, a confessional, and an egregious bit of stupid Film
A trailer I remember vividly - I think for an action movie - opens with a woman in a confessional, admitting to have broken the Fifth Commandment; the priest says "ah, you killed someone," and she replies, "that's not the Fifth Commandment." That part is what really stuck with me, since of course, that is the Fifth Commandment, and I wouldn't actually learn until much later that Protestants and Jews call it the sixth - but this was a confessional, and I'm pretty sure they had Spanish accents, so... anyway... I think what she says next is that she "disrespected a priest... you," and action-movie stuff is intercut. I think I might have asked this before - does anyone have any idea what it might have been?
Edited by TwinBirdopenA Pop! Show I can't seem to remember much of Anime
It was a show on the kids Channel Pop! I'm not 100% sure if it was an anime but it was about 3 children who had this book with different diamond shaped slots in it and would have to find the diamonds to fit in the book. There was also some sort of rip off team Rocket as well I think.
openShow about revenge (not the new Revenge show) Live Action TV
I remember it was on several years ago. There was a woman who had two sons and wanted revenge on this businessman who had two daughters. One of her sons was a doctor and didn't want to get involved in the revenge scheme, but the other went along with it. I think her plan was to have her sons seduce the businessman's daughters to get control of his company, but the son that agreed went after the wrong daughter.
openVideoGame Music Video Music
So i have really brief memories of a music video that aired on VH 1. It was Video game styled and it was about a big yellow bird with no arms and purple legs, who went through levels rescuing portraits of various celebrities and there was a giant spider boss, who when defeated turned good and became rainbow colored and then they went to the beach together.

openCartoon western drama I think
There was a cartoon show with a female lead, I believe set as an old western. It had the main character riding a horse in the opening theme. NOT The Legend of Calamity Jane. It aired in the 90's. Drama show. I distinctly remember one episode where the main girl had to dress up which was not a norm for her. Maybe she had red hair. Probably not nearly enough info but all I can remember.
open(This is a joke. Take this entry down if you want.) Live Action TV
Does anyone remember this kid's show? It was called Candle Cove
It was an educational family comedy like Bill Nye and most likely was broken up in segments for each episode. I'm almost positive the host was a woman and I remember one episode covered math or something like that. It was on a track and the woman insisted they all couldn't be the same length so the coach challenged her to go ahead and measure it all. She ran every time, measuring the length of each track. At the end, she turns to the coach and the rest of the track team, and admits he was right. Then the coach is like, "ready to start?" and she collapses in exhaustion.
