This definitely looks like a strange show... then again a lot of older children's shows were strange, though I don't see how this is nightmare fuel, though one or two kids probably got scared by it.
I don't think the Angry Video Game Nerd ever reviewed the GBC and GBA ET games, but I know the Irate Gamer reviewed them along with the infamous Atari 2600 game. I think you're referring to the Irate Gamer review of it, because I don't believe there are any missing AVGN videos of this caliber.

An animated show about colored ghosts living in a mansion... sounds familiar, but I can't really put my finger on it. I think I may have seen a show like that as a kid, but my mind could be mixing different shows together.
I remember when I first found TGWTG/Channel Awesome, and there was a lot there then that isn't their now, considering it was at a time when there was an abundance of reviewers that were trying to be the next Doug Walker or James Rolfe. I remember watching the "Nostalgia Chick Winner" video, and one reviewer I never heard of called "That Chick with the Goggles" was present as well as Lindsay and Marzgurl, who I was more familiar with. Her time on the site was short lived, and it was obvious she left before I started frequenting the site around 2010-2011.
One should also discuss the reviewers on TGWTG's ill-fated and short-lived sister site Blistered Thumbs, which was where most of the game reviewers were, and was basically like a hybrid between TGWTG and ScrewAttack. Some reviewers like Angry Joe and Guru Larry are still around, but a lot of the Blistered Thumbs reviewers are pretty much forgotten now, especially since the site wasn't paid attention to that much in comparison to it's parent site.
I've heard of this show and I've seen commercials for it, but never watched it at all, mostly because it looked too cheap and ugly for my tastes. Also reminds me of The Nutshack in terms of it's animation and art-style.
I'm not surprised they didn't air the five Conflict episodes, though it's mostly due to PBS wanting to keep a family-friendly image much like Disney does, albeit moreso.
yO was it something like "A Cranberry Christmas"? The pond part sorta jogged my memory as if I had seen something like that before, and the name just came to me.
It sounds very similar, and I do remember seeing that special when I was younger. In fact, it just happens to be lost media. The special was about an old man who wouldn't let kids skate on a frozen pond, so it does sound very similar.
This would be something very interesting to find, since Battle of the Planets is something that shows how different the dubbing of anime into English was back then compared to how it is now, as it was dubbed back in the 70's to early 80's when censorship was very prevalent.
Of course, this new series (which was just the old series repackaged) was to come out when the Gatchaman license was expiring and was then given to the now defunct ADV films, who then released an uncut English dub of Gatchaman the following year.
And at the very bottom of the article, guess which show is listed last? None other than Rimini Riddle: "Probably the most terrifying kids’ show to ever grace the RTÉ airwaves, Rimini Riddle followed a couple of puppet children as they explored the world inside a painting in their aunt’s guesthouse.
We say: “BRING IT BACK!”"
This does give another description, putting more emphasis on the painting, especially since there's so little on the show that's known, not even a Wikipedia article for it exists, but it is obvious that there are still a number of people who want this show to be found.

Cause I was looking up "Crop Circle game" and I found something called "The Crop Circles Mystery" and it looks and sounds a LOT like the game you're looking for. Here's another video of it:
UPDATE 10:22 PM EST: After showing this game to WeirdoSheep, he has informed me this is not the game. To quote what he said:
"It doesn't look like it, it was more colorful/cartoony. I'm almost positive that the ONLY character was the alien, no human characters (unless you count as one). I can see the similarities for sure, but the thing I played, if I remember it correctly, was barely a game. I'm thinking more and more that it was likely a tech demo, and was likely not released as a game proper."
Depends on the situation since game mods can be lost in any way, such as the creators of the mod losing the files, being poorly archived by forums and other hosting sites, or most infamously, getting shut down by the original creators of the game.
Many of the early builds of Minecraft are available, as stated by AntVenom in his videos, but a number of them, specifically some of the Survival Mode tests are lost.
I heard stories that an entire English Dub of one of the three G1 Transformers anime existed but all the tapes were destroyed in a warehouse fire.
The Transformers Wiki address this (likely bogus) rumour here:
The Headmasters was going to be dubbed into English and shown in America.
In America, "Season 4" consisted of "The Rebirth", a 3-episode mini-series. In Japan, "The Rebirth" was ignored, and a full-fledged series titled The Headmasters continued the story instead. Rumors once swirled in the fandom of an American-led dub of The Headmasters series; the dub was largely finished, goes the story, till the materials were lost in a warehouse fire.
Given the meandering pace of the series (common for Japanese shows but anathema to American sensibilities), the presence of numerous characters who had no toy equivalent on US shelves, the incompatibility with the "Nebulan" head characters, the number of Japanese cultural references, and the very existence of "The Rebirth", this rumor seems unlikely on the surface.
More to the point, no official confirmation or other evidence has ever surfaced to back it up. In all likelihood the rumor was probably a Chinese Whisper from the fact that the laughably-bad English language Omni Productions dub (or "Star TV" dub) was screened on UK satellite TV during the 1990s.
Okay, that's exactly what I was thinking of, I thought it was of Masterforce and not Headmasters.
Cloning is a rather popular cartoon plot-line, so it could be anything. Was it on Nickelodeon's main network or on it's side network Nicktoons Network, because that can narrow things down a bit.
