"They were aired in the 70s and never again." For some reason a lot of movies/tv shows that were made in the 1970s are either lost or near impossible to come by. You'd think at that point, a time where old movies can get exposure on television and TV shows had reruns, they would have been better preserved.

And believe it or not "Special Ed" was going to be a real episode of Ed Edd 'n Eddy (which is still my favorite show). I think Danny Antonucci's comment on it (that it was scrapped because it was "just too real") is legitimite. Somewhere out there might be an unaired episode of Ed Edd 'n Eddy. I'm not sure if this has been disproven as I haven't seen reference to it in years, but I think one of the Edternal Summer promos contained a short clip that wasn't seen in any known episode.

It's almost ironic we should be talking about Ed, Edd 'n Eddy as the very first "lost episode" story I read was about an only-aired-once episode called Scarecrow Boy. This was just a few years before the word "Creepypasta" even came into existance.

And I remember Dexter's Rude Removal. I remember Adult Swim teasing it for literal months before they finally released it. I was shocked when it came to light. I also remember the tedious wait for Tim Burton's Hansel and Gretel to get a proper release. Likewise I remember all the excitement when the formerly lost PC game Garage: Bad Dream Adventure was finally put on the internet.

There are a lot of pieces of lost media I would love to be found: London after Midnight (1927), The Miracle Man (1919), the original 8-hour long cut of Greed (1924). the missing scenes from the silent Oz films as well as that one that is completely missing, and, if they do exist, any unaired episodes of Ed, Edd 'n Eddy.

"And oh, thank you for your comment about my avatar. I love retro games." you're welcome, and I love retro games too. It is very rare when I play anything that was made past 2002.
