I don't think the majority of tv station or radio bumpers would be very exciting to rediscover.
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
I've been wanting to reply to this thread for a while, there are three big ones I can think of for me.
Pixar Made in Point Richmond DVD- no one really knew what was on it and I think a lot of people were searching for it under the impression it would have some rare animations from their iconic movies. We ended up getting a copy and it was full of test animations and early ads from old brands.
The Billy and Mandy pilot- everybody thought it was going to be a fully animated, color pilot similar to Mess O' Blues or other early test animations based on a screenshot found in a video game. However, the actual piece was a black and white student film that was shown by Maxwell Atoms at a convention and the colored screenshot was from concept art.
Kablam Episode 29- This one was disappointing for the fact that it didn't exist at all, but there was a lot of hype surrounding the possibility of unearthing such an elusive piece of content. When it was discovered to be fake, less people took an interest in sharing that news than if it had been real and found in a traditional way.
I'll still defend A Day With SpongeBob as a quality search but I've accepted that's only because I was heavily involved in it. For people who were looking in, I can understand why it ended up being disappointing or a waste of time.
I wanna say the Little Einsteins pilot. No one cares about this pilot’s existence except for one guy on YouTube (won’t say they’re name cuz you might harass him)

I'm inclined to disagree about the MIPR dvd. It was a fascinating look into early pixar history.

I never for one second believed there ever was a "lost" Kablam episode, the fact that there was zero information about it was an immediate red flag for me and I was baffled that it got as much traction as it did.

A number of searches on here right now I could feel the same about

The original end stingers of the season premiere and finale of s2 of ZOOM. They’re just things that were used in other episodes (the premiere’s stinger was also the one from episodes 5 and 12 of the season, and the finale’s was shown in the middle of episode 14, although without the ZOOMPlayhouse logo). Why they were replaced with something different is beyond me.

I think that Made in Point was actually sorta interesting as a look into early Pixar history; but I AM surprised it didn't had anything rare on it. Still, I think it was very worth preserving, perhaps not so much as a rarity, but as something part of animation history.

I know some examples:
The Racket: One of the 1st Best Picture nominees ever, was released in 1951 & was lost for many years. It was eventually rediscovered years later & it was found out to be a generic & bland gangster movie. Houston AIDS PSA: Sadly doesn't involve Shinji nor Asuka. Instead it is just the usual kind of PSA for AIDS, just (thankfully) without some homophobia. Shadow: War of Succession for the 3DO: "Hey dudes, here's a game I have just dumped last night. It's a total crapfest of a fighting game with awful controls. There aren't even any fatalities despite the prompts. Anyways, enjoy this atrocity!"
Dreams are boundless, imaginations are infinite, space is a multi-directional spiral & Akazukin ChaCha is my favorite anime

the vast majority of best picture nominated films kind of suck IMO, so this one isn't a big shock at all, people had much lower standards for nominating films back then.
Also the 3DO fighting games that did see release were already pretty bad themselves, so of course an unreleased one was going to suck.
