I was hoping to potentially find some episodes of a pretty obscure Kids TV show. It was called Screech Owls, and aired from 2001-2002, originally on YTV in Canada and later on Discovery Kids. It was based on a book series of the same name and followed a hockey team consisting of four kids, who always ended up in the middle of some mystery.

It had two seasons and a total of 27 episodes, even being nominated for a few awards. But despite all that, not much of the show can be found beyond two promos for it that were uploaded online, and a few screenshots. I've tried as much digging as I could without any luck at finding the actual show. I'll put down below everything I've managed to find:

Promo #1

Promo #2

Screenshots

IMDB Page
(The IMDB page has a list of all the episodes and the cast. For some strange reason in the image gallery there's an image of a girl with a gag in her mouth, which I am certain is absolutely not from this show. I don't know where it's from.)

Yeah, there are quite a few YTV Originals series that have had no home video (DVD or VHS) releases and few to no episodes uploaded online (which is a shame). Screech Owls is one of them. This show rings a bell. I remember seeing that YTV promo back in the day and even watched an episode or 2. Would be great if someone uploads most or all episodes of this series online! Lately, I've been binge watching a number of series that aired on YTV (and to a lesser extent Teletoon and Discovery Kids) from the late 90s to early 2000s (my childhood) and would love to give Screech Owls a try!

I swear, YTV and Discovery Kids has some of the most losable shows out there. Many, many shows with just a promo or two floating around, and if you're lucky, a full episode or two. A show like Fries With That? actually being found in its entirety is almost a miracle.

Yeah I remember being frustrated trying to find certain episodes of Kenny the Shark back in the day including the pilot, by sheer luck I happened to catch it at my grandmothers house one day.

Yeah, it definitely seems like YTV and Discovery Kids have some of the most losable shows out there (which is unfortunate as both channels have some really good and/or interesting old shows).

Fries with That? being completely found was a very pleasant surprise for me. When I first heard about it, I was in disbelief

. After checking out the uploader's channel, I realized the show was actually completely found

. Hopefully Screech Owls will be found (ideally completely) within a year or so.
