A few years ago I had a dream that Cartoon Network had a marathon called Cartoon Allstar Weekend that aired back in 1998 that had bumpers of the characters animated into a live action college. I randomly found a vhs that I forgot I had recorded it on.
I commented about this on a few places but when Nicktoons Gets Zombified was still lost I had a very realistic dream where I found all of them and when I woke up I was extremely mad lol

During Winter 2022, I had a renewed interest in Comedy Central's "Up Next" menus used for their on-air "Transmission" look (I don't know why, but something about those short comical animations amuse me). Earlier this year, it's been discovered that during Comedy Central's SPF 100 block for the Summer 1997 season, special "Up Next" menus were created to reflect the SPF 100 brand. The only ones known to exist are nicknamed "Grill" and "Hula Dancer" on this page (under the "Transmission" tab), but so far only screenshots are available: ccarchive.fandom.com/wiki/Menus
A couple of weeks ago, I had a dream where footage of both menus, as well as footage of a menu featuring a deflating dragon-themed pool floatie (probably because I was drawing a lot of dragons at the time?) were found. As soon as my mind started feeling hazy, I woke up and realize that it was a dream. At least that dream has given me inspiration to someday create a fan made variation featuring the dragon pool floatie.
(I don't know if these were the only menus created for SPF 100 1997. It also doesn't help that Summer 1997 recordings of Comedy Central are scarce online or that I don't know what production company was involved in producing these menus (unless Comedy Central themselves produced them in-house). I also tried asking around on the "Menus" page and on YouTube. Someone said they have footage of both (though one is apparently incomplete), but updates have been slow so far.)
2/15/2024 Update: Someone posted a screenshot of a new SPF 100 1997 bumper they found on that Wikia link. It is dubbed "Bee Attack". A clearer screenshot of "Hula Dancer" has also been posted there. Still no online footage of either bumper, though. I also don't want to pressure the owner of those commercial break recordings for now.
9/14/2024 Update: Footage of the "Grill" bumper has been found in the following video (at the 28:14 mark): m.youtube.com/watch?v=8T0Izh4gCBo
I had a dream last night about finding a fictional Dragon Quest Game; it primarily took place in the ocean and Mermen were the main villains.
He cut his trail of tears across the countryside And where he went, women wept and men died One night he woke from a vision of his own death Saddled his pony and rode her deep into the West

A few years ago I had a dream that Cartoon Network had a marathon called Cartoon Allstar Weekend that aired back in 1998 that had bumpers of the characters animated into a live action college. I randomly found a vhs that I forgot I had recorded it on.
Honestly I'm more suprised that they didn't do that. Reminds me of these bumpers from 2005.
I just dreamed about a strange set of Nickelodeon bumpers featuring Jimmy Neutron.
What were they about?
They're probably bumpers, but they felt more like Nickelodeon endcards at the end of VHS tapes of Jimmy Neutron. Possibly some prototypes that were used on prototype prints of a few tapes of the show. All I remember is that the Nickelodeon Movies logo theme from the movie is used on the bumpers and that Goddard sounds more like a regular dog than a robot dog in one of them. There is also the canceled Archie's Weird Mysteries movie that inspired me to do a lost media story on the Invent a Lost Media Story thread and on a iceberg chart about made up lost media (link here). Though the dream I had is a lot different than the actual story and that I found it through a character designer's website.
also, if you're including lost media that was made-up to begin with, which first appeared in a dream, there was this one time a while ago about a warehouse with this Brady Bunch production fabric sample with a tag on it saying "JUDY" in cursive at the center, with "baby" in a typewriter font on the bottom-right corner. The fabric and tag looked quite faded, but you can still make out the text. My guess that it was about a scrapped 10th Brady cast member.
