Puppet show but they looked like they had human bodies? Live Action TV
I believe it came on PBS back in the 90s or early 2000s, it may have been a European show but I can't remember. There were three main character puppets (one was a girl) with weird humanoid faces. They would go on adventures and teach life lessons, but I think they lived in a house together. I believe one of the male puppet boys had short blue wild hair (I could be remembering the color wrong).
But the thing I remember most about them is that sometimes they would run around and they actually had bodies and legs in full frame, like it was someone in a costume with a puppet mask on their head. I can't remember anything else about the show, just the visuals of it because most puppets don't have working legs.
The thing that sparked my memory was that my sister and I were watching the original Dark Crystal movie, and in one scene the boy was running and he had a body and legs in the same style of puppet witchcraft! lol
Don't know ben show Western Animation
There was a bunch of gems that would transform people into Super Heroes and they traveled across the world fighting people with fees also that these games that will train them until like super villains I remember that one of them was like a girl who could turn into like a fire controlling genie in one of the villains turned into like a flying ghost pirate
2D/3D mini-series and a "mon" cartoon based on a toy. Western Animation
I had been thinking about for quite sometime but couldn't remember their name.
The first one is a 2D/3D animated mini series about 2 students and a I.T teacher discover bug like creatures in a cyber space in their computer. They can have them battle and even one is blasted to pieces revive after the fight. I.T teacher invite a mobile device which the students can check and battle each other.
The second is difficult to remember but I can gather is about a group of protagonists hunting these animals that have been mutate by what I presume to be extraterrestrial virus. They can even use them to fight against other group that to use them to conquer the world. One of the protagonists had this mutant polar bear with icicles for spikes and claws. The same protagonist had a Dad, who I think is studying whatever mutate the animals. I think that they had a toy of different creatures each inside a cylinder shaped container.
I understand that it might be difficult to understand but this is all I can remember.
I believe it called The Newbs or something like that. Anime
Four regular kids are picked by two aliens to be the next generation of superheroes. They have trouble using stones to activate powers and super suits.I think the show is a couple years old.Aired I believe on Cartoon network.

No Title
I'm pretty sure this was a flash cartoon/game or something...
The characters were anthropomorphic Australian animals; a short yellowish koala and a blue or purple... kangaroo thing? My extremely fuzzy memories say he was something dog-like, like a dingo, but he looked kind of like Austin from The Backyardigans. :| I think they were called "Kwala" or "Kuala" and Benny (or something similar) respectively.
The only things I remember were some lame knock-knock joke puns like "pineapple rings a bell" and some kind of pipe game with colored water? It must have been around 2000, but probably earlier. The funny thing is, I can't find ANY results on Google no matter how I try to search.
Anybody on Earth heard of this?
Custom Level for Knytt Stories (very abstract and weird) Videogame
I pretty distinctly remember this VERY well-done story for Knytt Stories that had a ton of multiple endings (they were sort of like Symphony of the Night's, in that most of them ended your run early because it meant you didn't do the right thing), a unique cypher that most of the characters spoke through that involved turning the dialogue diagonal somehow, and a bunch of really weird technical tricks to get things like actual voice acting and looping soundtracks. The plot involved Knytt going to find the meaning of life, and the end boss was God himself, who taught you that the meaning of life was whatever you wanted it to be. I think it was a collaborative effort, with googoogjoob being involved (I THINK he did the soundtrack).
Comics about a teenage girl Print Comic
1. She asks for her mother to oranges to put into her lunch... so that she can put them into her bra. Later, when she's playing soccer, they fall out, much to her embarrassment.
2. A scene that parodies Mean Girls has her, ahem, slamming the Slam Book right into the trash.

King or lord something (Generic boy name) Live Action TV
Its about a normal high school boy who meets a middle princess or knight (she had armor on) she had a old man as a companion. They time traveled or came form another world I dont know. But he had to put up with showing her modern day things and life style. They had to fight what looked like an evil wizard or witch more on the witch side I think. The main characters name was in the name of the show. King or lord something with a modern generic name.

Anime girl joins guy in onsen/hot spring, what anime is this? Anime
I watched this on youtube some time ago and I just can't find it. It was a standard onsen and it was night or more likely evening. One guy, pretty plain with dark, short and a little spiky hair was all by himself in there. He was expecting someone to join him but it wasn't whoever he'd been expecting. It was a girl, and as for her apperance, I only remember she had long hair, a little dark but not very. Maybe light purple, I can't say. Briefly, you could see her from his POV, and she only had a towel hanging down between her legs (NOT wrapped around her waist). Her breasts were obscured by a strand of this guys hair. They both froze when they saw each other, and she staggered back a little. He told her others would be coming soon, so she got into the water (and when she did you could briefly see her butt, if that matters) and sat down right next to him. He was probably expecting her to sit further away, and scooted away just a little but kept calm. I think he might've also half-submerged his head, sp his mouth was underwater. After a little while, she started talking to him about something. She looked at the nightsky while talking maybe she didn't dare to look him in the eyes or something. I think she really liked him, they really liked each other. But I could tell she wasn't one of those typical anime girls, this girl was kind and decent (not violent at all ^^). During the whole clip they were by themselves. Now I've searched for ages, and I just want to find this anime! Please help me, it'd be so wonderful to find this anime. Please note, SHE joined him (not the other way around), in a hot spring/outdoor onsen without any walls between them and they were by themselves the whole time
The anime is not "Tenchi Muyo", "Hyouka" or "Kanojo ga Flag wo Oraretara" but the scene is very similiar to the one from Kanojo ga Flag wo Oraretara.
Song Whose Title Is A Number Music
Does anyone know what song this is? Its title is a number between 1960 and 1995. I think it's the lead singer's birth year. It's about childhood and growing up. There's an English and a non-English version (Israeli? Hebrew? I can't remember).

Shimeji/desktop pet walks in game window from offscreen Videogame
I know it's an oldish Japanese game, maybe a visual novel, that installed a desktop pet on your computer to have a character "walk" into the game window from offscreen. I think she was holding a baseball bat, and the game was a horror game.
Clockwork machines Anime
If anyone remembers a certain anime from around 2015 which had clockwork automatons fighting the MC and co, could you send me in the right direction? To my memory, the setting had the MC and heroine on board a train for a majority of it, although they also ventured back to their HQ to meet more characters to develop the story. I believe the plot revolved around some criminals creating the automatons and the organization which the MC was a part of was dedicated to destroying them. A mansion, sewer, high-tech base, and dark factory are some set pieces that I’m pretty sure were used during the battles between good vs evil. I think there were androids made as advanced versions of the robots as well, but I’m not positive.
Oh yeah and the good guys had a perverted robot on the train, who was on a personal quest for premium coochie.
Flashgame on AddictingGames
I am trying so hard to find what this is called but I can't figure it out. It's an old flashgame i used to play on that old Facebook Games layout, they had addictinggames on there. It was a puzzle game that involved some thinking and you controlled this white character, it was like plain white everything, white characters and objects and a plain white background (think of kinda like asdfmovie) It was continuous and superrr long, the character had to reach the end and it required a lot of solving tricks and stuff (Think of a game like those idiot test games that required you to solve puzzles to get to the end, but with this one having a character you could control) A specific puzzle/level I remember is the guy was carrying some keys to get to a different level, and there was a grate in the ground you didn't notice, so when you walked over it you lost the keys for some reason and you had to restart the game. (thats another thing that happened alot if you lost something you would have to restart) Can anyone help me?
Piqued interest meme?

Animated youtube series Western Animation
I remember the show mostly animated lineart, sometimes colored in clothing. there was a house that had some windows and a regular lounge chair and an upstairs with a bedroom. I remember the characters being a few roommates, a watermelon man, a huge demon squid/octopus, and a ghost girl. I remember the demon squid/octopus and watermelon were in a relationship. there was a basement that had a portal to a dimension that had a bunch of skinny trees and a stream. there was also many hallways in the house that went through the house from random doors or cracks in the wall.
Anime TV/BD comparison blog (NSFW-ish) Web Original
Around 2012-2013, there was this blog that focused on posting screenshots comparing scenes in TV and BD anime releases. Due to also showing scenes that were uncensored on Bluray, the blog was quite NSFW as a whole. The blog was in English, also the header or sidebar image was a fanart of Hatsune Miku, with her breasts censored until you put mouse cursor over them.
Does anyone remember that blog? It probably went under since then, as I can't find it with google, but just knowing what the url was would be fine.

Anime Waltz Song Music
So, years and years ago, I found a song which (I'm fairly sure) had "Waltz" in the title, and I'm also pretty sure it was from an anime. I don't remember if it was the opening or ending, or any part of the name except for Waltz, and when I search "Anime Waltz" I find a looot of results and I've had no luck wading through them. The song was mostly piano, I honestly can't remember whether or not there was singing, and it was pretty sad sounding. I can only really remember what I think was the chorus, and here's a recording of my trying my best to hum it. http://vocaroo.com/i/s10E482FqI1Z
Paranormal children’s show with British male lead Live Action TV
This show aired on ABC Kids in Australia around 2003/2004/2005. It was possible British, American or Canadian—the main boy definitely had an English accent. The show was about three teenagers at high school, and basically in each episode they get thrown into some kind of supernatural occurrence either at school or on a field trip or whatever. The main boy definitely had a British accent, and I remember him looking kind of like Samuel Barnett from Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency (I’ve IMDB’d it, it’s not him). I think the other two main characters are a dark-skinned girl and a red-haired boy. Might be remembering that wrong though. The only episode I can remember is one in which the trio are stuck on a train that is caught in some kind of time crisis—either time is frozen or it keeps repeating itself, something along those lines. Anyway, the episode ends with a big finale where the main guy runs across the train and stops the minute-hand of the clock with his finger. Can’t remember why he does this, but for whatever reason it saves the day. I think the show might have been called “Weird” or “Too Weird” or something like that. There was a Disney channel show called “So Weird”, but it’s not that one.
Educational shorts
I remember vaguely this shorts that were in Discovery Kids I think, about two kids that learn about nature.
I remember one where they talked with some mountains (yes, it was that kind of show) that were eating a lot of trash, and they learned about earth polution.
And another where they learn about the cycle of water, and they get to the clouds to find a water drop they just befriended. Something like that.
A kid's program on VHS from the 80s/90s about animals set to music Film
When I was a little kid (late 80s/early 90s), I remember watching a video ad nauseam that was like a series of music videos with animals, or animal footage set to old songs. The two segments I remember most clearly were an orange tomcat roaming around visiting a bunch of girl cats set to 'The Wanderer' ("They call me the wanderer / Yeah, the wanderer / I roam around, around, around), and 'Do Your Ears Hang Low' playing over footage of elephants.
I'm curious if this was part of a series meant to entertain toddlers, or some one-off thing, and also I'm just curious if anyone else remembers my musical animal fever dream.

Kids parents turn into monsters late at night Live Action TV
I think it was an ( anthology) TV show from the 1980s. All I remember is a boy whose parents make him go to bed every night and stay asleep all night and make sure not to get up. Then one night he stays up really late and watches his parents turn into grotesque monsters and finds out that all adults turn into monsters late at night and then turn back into regular people in the morning
