Ughh, I don't want to harp on small details like this but I get so annoyed when people claim x media was posted to YouTube years ago but was deleted. It's like the easiest excuse to give for why someone remembers seeing content that nobody can find now.
At this point, it's almost the "My uncle works at Nintendo" of lost media searches.

They probably only have the film reel since it's a compilation. This means that they knew someone or did work at nickelodeon studio Florida during the late 90s. So getting into contact to work
Hi everyone! Didn't know this thread was even a thing so I figured I'd also add some information to this thread
-I contacted someone with a tape on LinkedIn about 2 years ago. Very important person involved, but I can't and won't say who. All I'll say, is the Wiki Admins had claimed to have reached out to someone in the past, and never got back to them. I honestly don't trust anything those guys say, since they clearly don't trust us. With all that said, I asked LSSQ if he wanted to work with me to get into contact with this person. One thing led to another, and by some miracle by Jesus Christ, they actually got back to me.
Before they mentioned the tape, they actually gave me a plot synopsis. Take this as you will:
"No plot really. A Premise. For the pilot, it was the concept that if you are "waiting" and doing nothing, it feels like things take forever. But if you get involved with other things, the time passes and you enjoy your time. Geared towards small children."
Now some of you will think I'm full of shit, but LSSQ was in the groupchat with me when I contacted them, so ask him if you don't believe me lol- Anyway, after they said they had the pilot, they told me they had no plans to release it, and said they "hope it finds it's way online someday" like that's gonna help LMAO-
-After that lead sank, we came up with the Idea of making an hour long video documenting the search, and perhaps getting fresh (maybe important) eyes on it. Kinda like how RebelTaxi got the attention of Adultswim to release Rude Removal. Not saying Nick will see this and decide to release it (frankly, I doubt Nick even has it in their archives...) but maybe new leads will emerge upon making the video.
However the video was eventually delayed, when a user named Ber contacted another induvial who had a tape in their possession. To cut the story short, they said they'd have to talk with their manager before they could do anything with the tapes. So we waited to hear back from them.
And so we waited....and waited....and waited...
Waited, waited, waited. Nothing.
Now obviously, they were told no, and just didn't want to give us the bad news...
I honestly don't understand why this search has the worst luck, but I guess that's just murphy's law. Seems like every time we contacted someone who has a tape, just vanishes off the face of the earth. Almost as if there's some kind of outside force preventing this form getting out there. More of a speculative take, I know- but I can't help but feel that way.
I've rambled on long enough. If you guys have any questions lemme know. But trust me, this search is far from dead... Just restless!
That really stinks, it sucks when there are people who genuienly have the pilot, but arent willing to publish it online, its a shame this kind of situation happens a lot.

Take care now! -Marcus
We were made aware of the second lead you're talking about by LSSQ's video on searches that hid dead ends, but that first lead with the plot synopsis is very interesting! With how some people seem willing to release it, but can't due to unknown reasons, i feel like the tape is just gonna get tempmailed to someone and we're never gonna know who sent it, Dycaite cracks style, y'know?

Would LOVE for that to happen- and would add another layer of mystery to the investigation- Yet I'm not too sure that is even a possiblity. Like I said, it feels like there's something (Or someone) preventing this from being released. I don't know what are why that is, but they're doing a pretty good job if that's the case.
If not, then maybe we should focus on somehow getting this to play (as it shows an error on EVERY platform this is on) because it likely has info on MAMF.
It seems that this podcast has indeed not been searched for more information on MAMF yet. And because of that, I did some proper research into it and uh… Well, apparently rabbit holes lead you down the right path sometimes because it seems I have found public contact information for 2 of the hosts.
I will contact them myself tomorrow, as it’s late in the night for me right now, then I will update y’all when they get back to me.
this podcast can likely hold new info on MAMF like potentially a brief plot synopsis, names for the other meerkats, new production members, etc and that’s why I’ve been so consistent on trying to get confirmation of rather this was a new lead or not, and since I finally got confirmation that it likely is, i finally dug deep into it

Seems like an interesting lead, wishing you best of luck on contacting these people. Just avoid making this info public so whoever you're trying to talk to doesen't get overwhelmed with e-mails. Also, do you have in mind what you're going to ask them?

Yeah, I’m not gonna make the contact information readily available, as that’ll just obviously lead to miserable trolls harassing the people for no good reason.
I’m pretty much gonna ask them if they’re able to fix the error code that happens whenever you try to play any of their episodes, and if they say that doesn’t work, I’d ask them to try and release them on YouTube or the Internet Archive.

The same claim was made with Slamfest '99 and we found no evidence it was ever posted on YouTube. For that matter, why would Me and My Friends have ever been posted on YouTube in the first place? It doesn't even make sense.
I'm working on a new video documenting the search so I've been going down all the old rabbit holes again, and I recalled that the people over at the Bakcyardigans Wiki had known about this pilot many years before it made its way to the lost media community. If it really had been online at one point, they would have known.
Completely true LMAO Even now, it's not going anywhere, but i'm following it as it's all we can do for now anyways 🤷 (btw, will I be in the video? XD)
This search is still primarily focused on MAMF, but...
We COULD also search for this if you guys are up to it. Finding who to contact will be much easier this time.
Celluloid Studios is owned by James Wahlberg, which, as shown in the video, is responsible for many other works, mainly commercials for Nick, Nintendo, and...
forums.lostmediawiki.com/attachment/download/3584 As curious as I am about this guy, why does he feel like the sort of thing that'd haunt my dreams and give me nightmares in the most embarrassing ways possible? For some reason his walk cycle and blank expression just.... rub me the wrong way.
