openHElp find this show
Its a weird almost clip show I remember from my childhood. It had a claymation intro in a factory setting and a bunch of weird shorts from gross to just creepy. It changed animation and art styles through the clips. I remember one scene with like these disgusting hoarders.
openlive action show with a blue mouse character? Live Action TV
I remember this from when I was really little- so the early 90s but it may have been older. Anyway I only remember a group of kids and a person in a blue mouse costume taking part in little educational shorts, one was about a girl getting herself a glass of what she thinks is juice when the mouse character stops her and says she should ask her parents before drinking it since it might not be juice and could therefore make her sick. Anything?
opencan't remember the tv shows name
The show in question is within the past few years, back to around 2012 to this time. The show is about surviving in a world that is rebuilding. One of the main characters is oriental who uses a sword to fight with and is part of a protection unit of sorts for the ruler of the land he is part of. The other main character is a boy who has a pendant of some mysterious town and when his eyes turn black he becomes this complete "badass" in fighting.

Edited by zakrahopenShow with live action girl and animated fish Film
Okay, so this is going to sound crazy. But I remember a show or short movie thing, I don't really know, but I watched it in the late 90s - early 2000s. It had a high school girl in it who was a real person and the show also incorporated animated fish...like she would go to high school and stuff and she would go back to her house and either she turned into an animated fish or animated fish were her friends or something..that's really all I can remember. I remember it had a song at the beginning, so it could have been a tv show, but I feel like I watched it on VHS. PLEASE HELP. I've been looking for this thing for hours.

openSome Edgar Allan Poe Work Literature
We had to read an Edgar Allan Poe work for English class as part of a reading comprehension test, but for the life of me I can't remember what it was called. It involved the narrator committing a murder and getting away with it, only to be tormented by what he believes to be the spirit of the man he murdered. This ultimately culminates into him believing that he was struck down by the spirit and forced into publicly confessing to the crime.
openI think it was called "the book that oozed black blood" Literature
I remember this children's horror anthology book. All I remember was one story really scared me, I believe it was titled "the book that oozed black blood" and yes, it was about a book that oozed black blood. I believe it killed people. I remember the end of the story was a guy who got the book's ultimate book (or something?) and then flew off on a giant book, out the window with an evil smile. I can't find it on the internet. Help please?
Edited by greatgodofmineworldopenSci-fi TV show
There was a TV show that I used to watch. Around 2011-2014. It was a group of people that were based in a castle like church in a city somewhere. They dealt with different powered individuals. They also had some kind of hairy (human-like) creature with them. One of their own, a girl, got captured and was transformed into a fighting machine that could teleport. She and a few others then attacked the castle / church. She and the others could teleport. One of those others that was with her teleported into a wall and died. This is all I remember. Does anyone know the name of this show?
open3d animated hasbro cartoon from 97 that mom doesnt remember much about Western Animation
there was this cartoon probably made by hasbro during 1997 that my mom doesnt remember much about. here is all she could remember of it: 1.it was 3d-animated, so that cancels out MLP. 2.it was set in prehistoric earth 3.it was about two factions locked in war 4.there was one of the bad guys who was an t-rex robot and 5.that same guy said"yessss" all the time. my little brother's cartoon block airs this very show that mom doesnt remember. he remembers that it is connected with another cartoon of hasbro's from 1984.and as i said, its not MLP. he knows most of the bad guy's names. i think its well-known because it won an award or so, so its fairly easy to find info on it.
openOld Flash game Videogame
I'm trying to find a Flash(?) game that was on either Newgrounds or Miniclip. It was a cowboy-themed platformer with pixel art graphics, kinda similar to Armadillo on the NES. I played it at some point between 2008 and 2011.
openIdk Western Animation
It was on in between 2005 and 2012. Its a show about a brother and sister. The brother is a pilot and his mother dies leaving him a ship. His mother was as killed by the soldiers, and his brother and sister flee in the ship. They are on the run from the empire.
openChildhood Show Western Animation
There was a TV show from about 10 years ago that I used to like as a kid. The title probably had "brain" in the name. I remember it having a really weird art style. It was animated, but each episode was made of several sketches. The one I remember most clearly was when someone would read information about a topic while a bunch of random and distracting stuff was happening in the background. Then they would quiz you to see if you were paying attention. For example, I remember the show doing that sketch with volcanoes. EDIT: Found it. It's called Crashbox.
Edited by VerticalHungeropenSimpsons Dr. Strangelove couch gag Western Animation
I am looking for a couch gag in The Simpsons that parodies the famous bomb scene from Dr. Strangelove. The whole family is on the couch wearing Stetsons. The floor opens (I can't remember if the setting was an aircraft bomb bay or the living room) and the couch falls through the hole with a town visible below. The family wave their hats as this happens. This is NOT the scene in which Homer imagines riding the bomb.
All I remember is a dark-haired lady saying "Oh! I forgot to close the fridge door!" and then something spooky happens (LOL, that's all I remember).
