openImmortal dude battle manga
It was a battle shonen, with the male mc being immortal, and his love interest being a normal human. The dude first character arc was in understanding the value of life and in a climactic happening the main girl died, or at least seemingly died, and the main male character goal was then shifted to trying to revive her i think(not to sure). He may or may not have became mortal too but i m not sure.
openRich kid harem Anime
So it was a manga i used to read back when there was only a few chapters out. If i remember correctly mc was an heir to some big company and was hella rich, and he had a harem of girls who were taking care of him as a result. I remember one of the girl seemed to care about him as a person regardless, i don't remember the rest
Set up is similar to this
https://mangadex.org/title/3ad71bcc-3b99-4da6-9c1f-729741cce411/tamarowa
But the male main character is of high school age, and not as brazen with woman. I don't think it was a game show either.
Sorry if it's too vague
opencartoon about squirrel Western Animation
this cartoon was educational. was about two squirrels who moved to different places using a portal in a hollow. in one episode, the chipmunks landed on a farm owned by an elf. all the animals on the farm had their voices messed up by the magic storm. in another episode, the characters found themselves in a land inhabited mainly by birds. i'm from poland.in my country, this cartoon was on a CD that came with a parenting magazine. I'm pretty sure this animation was in English with a Polish voiceover. i'm sorry for my english.

openLate 90s or early 2000s series about a woman whose life is ruined after sleeping with an actor
A friend is trying to recall a show from that era, although it's possible only the pilot aired or it could have been a TV movie.
The premise is a woman working in television who has a seemingly perfect life. Then an attractive actor comes in for an audition, she sleeps with him and her fiance dumps her.
openRobin Williams movie Film
I'm pretty sure it was Robin Williams. I only remember one scene. Williams character was in a forest, I think he was lost. And he was said that he needed to walk, making sure to keep the sun on his back. And he was also traveling with a woman.
openindie / alternative rock band's album is shelved due to executive meddling Music
Maybe around 15 or more years ago, I remember finding a link to a music journalism article online - the article was about a rock band whose album was held up by Executive Meddling, and the inciting incident was apparently the band refusing to record a Cover Version of "All You Need Is Love" for a commercial. I mainly remember this because 1) I think this article might have actually been my first exposure to the idea that Music Is Politics, and 2) not long after I saw a Chase Bank ad that used Nada Surf's version of "All You Need Is Love", making me wonder if that was the ad in question and if Nada Surf had accepted the offer this other band refused. Consulting the other wiki re: Nada Surf's version of "All You Need Is Love", this would have been around 2006.
Edited by MikeKresolved somebody help? Western Animation
So, I need help finding a show. I remember watching it in the early-to-mid 2010s. It was animated sort of like Winx Club, and there were schools for angels and demons. I remember the angel high school was called the Golden School. The protagonist (an angel) had kind of a thing with a demon and their romance could apparently cause calamity. Said demon also appeared on the same human's shoulders with the protag. Also, there were pets. One of the demon love interest's pets was a snake. Somebody help, please?
Edited by MintySkiesopen3D animated children's show (Team Unizoomi) Western Animation
The show had three tiny kids in a miniature orange car that drove out of a fountain every episode, and I think the three kids had green, blue, and pink clothing, with each kid using mainly one color for their clothes.
Edited by OffAndSphereopenPixel city as a visitor counter [Solved]
There was a website like a decade ago that pretty much only counted visitors for a specific username and the point was to link to it from forum signatures. But it was designed like a pixelated isometric city. At one visitor you'd see just a hut and a road, at 100 a few buildings and intersections and at 100000 skyscrapers should show up.
After nearly giving up, turned out it's myminicity.
Edited by AmonimusopenUnknown Movie Film
All I remember about the movie is that a girl starts a non-face-to-face relationship with a guy, using his dog's name as his username. At the end of the movie, the lady encounters the man in a park. He calls for his dog, at which point the lady realizes she's been in love with him all along (which she was hoping for). I can't remember if the lady had a day job at some sort of office building.
openNo Title Videogame
A flash game I came across several years ago, it was about a little white guy who (as I recall) had a leaf on his head or something like that. In the game, the main character lived in a kind of tree, the main objective of the game was to take care of the house and resources because otherwise, the main character would die in one or more ways, I remember that in one ending his house literally fell on top of him. It was a game that taught how to take care of the environment, but in a very weird way.
openLive-action Disney Channel special or movie Live Action TV
Now this one I may or may not have dreamed, because it was late at night, I was a kid, and I was tired, but I remember seeing bits and pieces of this on Disney Channel sometime in the late 90s.
It may have taken place at a camp, possibly an all-girls summer camp or something, I'm not sure, but there were only two scenes that I actually saw on the TV screen.
First of which were all of these kids (again, I remember it being all girls) screaming and freaking out, because I think their tents or something had been destroyed while they were still inside, and there may have been a pick-up truck that sped off into the night (so maybe something was afoot and whoever was in the truck was making a get-away or something). While the counselors came over to console the frightened kids, there was one girl in particular the others were lashing out - I don't know if she actually had something to do with the mishap, or they just believed that she did, I just remember she was crying while the others basically just gave her a verbal tongue-lashing... even as the scene was drawing to a close and the others started to walk away, one taller girl just had to pause, turn to her, and say something to the effect of, "You ruined everything!" while the girl just stood there crying her eyes out.
The only other scene I remember (because I had stepped into the bathroom at this point to brush my teeth before bed) was that same girl was now in a really big and plush-looking bed that seemed to overlook either Disney World or Disneyland, while other girls were dancing in circles around her bed and singing "Hip Hip Pooh-Ray" to her, and as the others broke away, one of them handed the girl a Winnie the Pooh plushie to sleep with.
openHorror Movie that ends in "-ella" Film
I have vivid memories of a horror movie from the late 2000's/early 2010's about a disfigured killer who goes after a group of rich girls at a school. And I remember this one specific scene from it where a rich girly-girl is going through her daily routine, narrating to the audience while she does it, but during the narration, the killer breaks into her room and starts brutalizing her, killing her by throwing her out the window where she crashes into a new car bought by her parents.
I'm sorry if this description sounds a bit generic, but I'm curious if anyone would be able to find this for me.
openMedicine(?) commercial with little creature
I remember this commercial about 15 or so years ago that had this woman getting pestered by this little CGI creature. As with most commercials of this type, she gets the better of it. What I really remember was the part at the end, the creature pushes against the side of the screen, making a split screen. The woman bumps into the screen, pushing it aside.
I know it wasn’t Mucinex, and I know it wasn’t that commercial with that monster creating toe fungus either. It was either a commercial for medicine or medication.
open80s TV with U2 song Live Action TV
I remember a tv show in the late 80s-maybe early 90s on US major network TV… I think the main subjects were high school aged. It was a drama… this episode a group of teens (?) we’re driving around trying to find a friend who had ran away, I think! While they were looking U2 was playing “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” … I remember even at a young age being very moved by the scene. Ideas? Thx!
resolved White fog Y.A. Novel *solved* Literature
Im trying to remember a book i read when i was around 13. It centered on this white fog that settled over an area i believe in australia or new zeland. The big twist of the book was that the fog, and the humanoids in the fog were part of the human immune system (not dissimilar to Monster Pulse but its def not that), and had been unleashed by a genetics lab in the center of the fog. There was also a major plot beat about using Morse code to decipher a pulsar into coordinates for the main characters. The book ended with the main characters using some kind of satellite array to send the same message back thru the pulsar i think?
Edited by gert10openCar that drives onto train tracks, a lever is pulled, and train wheels lower down Film
Part of me says "Darkman" part of me thinks it was a Bond film, but there was a scene where someone drove over some train tracks, came to a stop, and then pulled a lever to put train wheels down so they could resume driving.
Solved: Lethal Weapon 3
Edited by vtmarik

At first, the son of a pharmacist wanted to be a wrestler but his dad refused, so the son leaves his home. Many years later, the son returns with his pregnant wife intending to reconcile with his father and open a gym in town. Father and son reconcile, and the son leaves the drugstore for reasons I don't remember. While the son is out, a man enters the drugstore, has an argument with the pharmacist, and kills (or orders a goon to kill) the pharmacist, his wife, and his pregnant daughter-in-law. Later, when the surviving member of that family finds out, he goes to a wrestling arena and fights everyone there.
