the idea of crazy frog being a secret character in a video game is just funny to me. like he's a forbidden entity that can only be unleashed if you get every single jamstercoin or whatever.
I remember it being on ABC in Australia! The jagged, crooked way the ducks are drawn made them look like they were crushed by a truck, piano, other large object & I kept watching to see if they ever got better.
Just so you know, X-DuckX was entirely handled by the same guys who worked for Oggy and the Cockroaches and Space Goofs. Despite being created by Jan Van Rijsselberge, who later created Robotboy. Update (late, lol): I know Xilam had no involvement with the cartoon. I was just saying that most of the crew behine the show previously worked for Oggy and Space Goofs before it was in development. Plus it was a Xilam cartoon disguised as a Alphanim production.
No Me Moleste Mosquito looks really ugly but it has a certain charm to its early 2000s cg animation. its a shame the series is lost, it may of been terrible or a diamond in the rough but it deserves a place in history

Sorry to hijack, but do you know what they’re singing at the end of the teaser episode uploaded onto the official Animalada Studios channel? I’m learning Spanish and it sounds like they’re saying “te ya matar” but I am pretty sure that’s not correct. I’m honestly just curious and it’s been bugging me lol
It is likely a modism of "te voy a matar" It is specially common with cumbia music or in highly informal speech to skip many letters from phrases and focus only on vocals.

God, XDuckX really does have some "We have Spumco at home" vibe . Tho, Given how much of a run it had, they at least presumably were able to get episodes out on time...
That's just the artstyle of some French cartoons, notably Xilam, who produced this show. Xilam also did Space Goofs & Oggy And the Cockroaches. Cosmic Cowboys also had this kind of artstyle.
Technically speaking Spumco is just Warner Bros. at home, just because a cartoon has zany and expressive layouts doesn't mean it's ripping off Johnny Boy LuL
Bob Camp (from Ren&Stimpy) storyboarded some Space Goofs episodes. Ren&Stimpy was the creator of Oggy and Space Goofs Jean-Yves Raimbaud's fav cartoon.
Seeing Loco Loco in a lost media video really made me excited as I've always wanted this topic to be covered at some point because from what I've seen nobody else did. Frankly I've enjoyed listening to Loco Loco's music on their YT channel aside from Mosquito and It Burns Burns Burns and they were unironically great to listen to :3
Hi, I'm German and watched a lot of X-DuckX on TV as a kid, so randomly getting a video with this thumbnail recommended was quite surprising! (aired on SuperRTL) Also DuckTales, Darkwing Duck (I think on Kabel1, alongside Gargoyles), a Sitting Ducks show, which I only recently remembered, and most importantly Alfred J. Kwak (on Kika iirc) which is probably my favourite show that had a pretty big impact on me, Winnie Wana being probably my first crush. ^^ There's been a surprisingly large amount of duck stuff in my young years, not even mentioning the hundreds of Disney duckverse comics [the LTB/Mammut Comics/Carl Barks stuff etc.] that are a (in my experience) massive cultural thing here, cause even my father already read them back in his childhood, and I have a bunch of vintage originals. So if I see something duck related, I click. :P Also I had 'It Burns, Burns, Burns' earworm back into my head a few weeks ago, it also being a very classic memory. I knew those mosquitoes seemed familiar! Good stuff.
tom kenny once said that he got the idea for spongebob's voice from casting auditions with a bunch of elves - at least as far as i remember. i often wonder if elf bowling was the movie they were auditioning for.
I know for a fact that the moment the official Crazy Frig model is ripped, the Bikmin 269 mod would immediately get an update replacing it's Crazy Frog model with the one user in the PS2 game.
There‘s actually two Xduckx dubs completely found as far as I know. The one you mentioned, and the german dub. Didn’t know about the russian dub until your video though. Edit:nevermind, you did mention the german dub. Although i do believe all the episodes are found, and not some missing Nevermind #2, some have been deleted, and I just hadn‘t looked through the playlist yet. This does mean that all of them were found at one point
I remember catching an episode of Canards Extremes (XDuckX) on French-Canadian TV one time and thought it looked interesting. Looking it up led me down a rabbit hole where I found out that a lot of French/European animation have English dubs made that rarely see the light of day... at least not here in North America.
Obscure English dubs of international cartoons seems to be a fairly common practice. In anime, the producer TMS Entertainment has had a history of making English versions of shows - often with ridiculous Americanizations of names - for appealing to western distributors and for use as a pivot language since it'd be more convenient for someone to go from English to Spanish / French / whatever than Japanese.
omg, i remember watching XduckX (Los Patos Extremos in Spanish) on UCV Televisión (Chile) there's literally one part of an episode on youtube with the spanish dub. i think the entire Spanish dub is lost media!
People who don't know the jamster cgi animals are very lucky people who should count their blessings. That yellow bird still brings out a deep rage in me that hasn't changed in 20 years
There is a quite interesting game which recently became lost media. It's name is Deo and supposedly was still buyable a couple of month ago, but now the website you could buy it is no longer in use and it seems very unlikly that the developer will ever release it again. I feel like there is a point to be made, how some things only become interesting, after they get lost.
Woha, I completely forgot about X-DuckX. I remember how strange I found the series even as a child. And to No me moleste, mosquito, I'm sure I saw at least one episode as a kid on Nick Germany or Super RTL besides the music videos. It was shown as a kind of bumper, as the episode was only a few minutes long and had little to no dialog. I tend to think it was Nickelodeon though, because at the time they were still sharing a slot with VIVA, who showed a ton of Jamba commercials.
I remember XDucX used to broadcast in Brazil, I never thought it'd be talked again (along with Ratz, about a pair or rats in a cargo ship, they used to broadcast back-to-back)
Dang, XDuckX just unlocked a memory. I had completely forgotten I watched that show as a kid, but seems the latin america dub is just as lost as the english one.
5:20 German here; I grew up watching xDucks lol; really disgusting humor but I remember enjoying it as a kid, and the dub was really good to be fair haha
"Maybe he's the reason we can't get a copy of Me and My Friends." lmao Also, wow. I'm amazed that Elf Bowling movie had a sequel planned. It kind of reminds me of how Rapsittie Street Kids was supposed to have some Easter-themed sequel that never aired because the first one was just THAT terrible.
Omg I remember finding No me moleste Mosquito completly randomly, just searching up the lyrics to The Mosquito by the band The Doors. Apparently that song became quite popular in other countries
What I want to know is the band's connection to the No me moleste mosquito. Why did the studio behind the show decide to turn their show into a cartoon novelty act in the same vein as crazy frog?
Honestly, I have NEVER heard of Schnuffel Bunny and Moley before, but Sweety the Chick was IMMEDIATELY recognizable to me. When it comes to Jamster/Jamba, Crazy Frog and Sweety were probably the most wellknown mascots to me. Interesting that there used to be a whole action platformer for the Jamba/Jamster mascots in the works. Guess that Crazy Frog raging game isn't so bizarre now.
seeing X-duckX unlocked some ancient memories for me omfg-- growing up canadian meant I saw all these weird french, british, american, AND canadian cartoons on either ytv or teletoon. wish i was more into recording vhs tapes and burning cds back in the day considering how much of the stuff i used to watch religiously is now missing orz
18:31 All of this reminds me of Josué Yrion, an evangelist who’s also Brazilian (but speaks in Spanish) and satanized Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Nintendo as a whole
I remember watching several episodes of X-DuckX on SuperRTL (iirc it was known as X-DuckX Extrem abgefahren) as a kid. It featured that well known Xilam slapstick (Oggy, Space Goofs) so I quite enjoyed it. Found out later these also got a Polish dub (Ekstremalne Kaczory), airing around here sometime between 2001-2006.
Its funny how me and a few friends joked about there being a tv show about mosquitos annoying someone and why it hasn't happened yet. I guess we know they beat us to it and we can't find it.
The segment of Dragon Ball where a villain controls Gohan and makes him attack his dad must be that part in the third DBZ movie where Tullece forces Gohan to transform into a giant ape
Actually, I can remember one other time a villain forced Gohan to attack his father, when Baby possessed his body in Dragon Ball GT. Goku looked like a kid there though so I'm not sure they would have used that.
I grew up watching X-DuckX. I am German and therefore I watched the German dub. It was one of my favorite shows. It's actually absolutely hilarious and clever and still holds up. The German dub is really good and extremely creative and experimental with its wording of making up buzzwords that don't exist, but make you wish they were real. It's 100 % authentic. J.T. Trash's voice actor had a Swiss accent and that was also hilarious. The soundtrack of the show was also amazing. Lots of techno trance and metal. And I especially loved the overexaggerated visuals. They were just really good. Truly a great show and I would recommend it, if you could actually watch it xD The thing is that I was often watching the German dubs provided to RUclips to relive the memories and to entertain myself. There was a time when like half of the episodes were missing, probably due to copyright, but over the years, most of the episodes have been revived, as you said. Even in high definition! I didn't know the entire Russian dub was provided as well, but it has always confused me why I could never find any other dubs, but the German. I knew the show was from France, but there's no French dub, nor any English dub either. I really dug into it back then and I'm so relieved there's finally an answer. Thank you for solving this mystery for me!
I swear I've seen guilberto from "Boa tarde Brasil" I'd guess that was the original title since you translated it, probably kind of likely because I did watch a lot of news when I was little like "Fantastico" and that kind of stuff, though I was born after 2003. ALSO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THE WAY AMERICANS PRONOUNCE PORTOGUSE WORDS KILLS ME IF I HEAR ONE MORE PERSON SAY "Brie ki dough" WHEN THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT STUDIO BRINQUEDO MY BRASILIAN SOUL WILL DIE 😭
5:58 first time i ever even heard about that show was through rebel taxi's Review on it many years back lol who knew this show would be brought up again
God I just got a flashback from seeing that XDuckX show, I remember sitting in front of the TV watching that show and thinking, "What is this?" first thing I saw as a kid were I really didn't like it
You helped me find the Schnuffel Bunny commercial. I've wanted to watch that again for years, but I had no idea what it was called. It wasn't exactly lost media, but thanks for helping me find it.
Hey sonic, can you cover Audrey and Friends on your next video? It was a British animated kids TV Series that had 26 episodes and ran on channel 5 milkshakes' Impossible Television from August 2002 to February 2003. So far, only the pilot of the series has been found and released.
X-DuckX was running on one of the go to TV channels in germany, so of course it stuck with some people, though still it was very unknown and nobody would mention it ever. On the topic of Lost Media dubs, while not entirely lost it sure is hard to find: Allo, Allo! German dub was entirely officially created, yet only 2 of like 9 seasons were released on DVD and the rest was run at 1am like 2 times or so, so the only luck is for people to have saved it on VHS and as much as I was able to find there are some episodes missing or badly saved (audio desynced, cut offs, color quality demolished, etc.) Just wanted to mention that one, it's very popular in UK and Poland from what I've heard and has a firm place in my heart as one of the greatest comedy shows and the German dub is simply Chef's Kiss for that setting.
The X Duck X show was only really on the ABC on school holidays when they had an extended kids slot. I remember it being called “Extreme Ducks” or maybe “Xtreme Ducks”, I don’t remember it being popular and they often played the same episodes for the 6 or so weeks of summer holidays. This may also explain only 6 episodes in English being available? I could be wrong but you never know. Anyway I used to like it because it was a little edgier than the regular shows ABC showed and funnily enough, the ABC would usually show obscure dub shows during summer holidays like The Baskervilles or this one that I vaguely remember being a CGI short about Santa’s reindeer getting lost on a beach or something…it was a weird time
Not only did I watch XDuckX as a kid it was legit my favorite show. I even made my older brother draw the characters for me. Grew up watching the German dub in Vienna! Must be nostalgia but I don’t think it looks unappealing at all lol.
Request: I made this request before and I'll type it here for everyone to see, so I apologize if I repeated myself. There's an educational Math-tutoring game for the Apple II computer called Math Jam released in 1985. What makes this game special is that it was the first game made by Naughty Dog (Crash Bandicoot, Jak & Daxter, Uncharted and Last of Us), then known as JAM Software. It was made by the founders Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin when they were still high school students. They made it for a friend who struggled to teach children math. They made multiple copies for the school they attended and originally they intended to sell it but they couldn't so they gave the copies to the school for free. Only thing exist is the cover art. No ROMs or copies online or even video footage.
9:02 to 13:27 is the jamster section. The elephant is Jambo elephant. The other name was Elli Fant (i like Elli Fant better). The special feature was shockwave jump for Jambo. Not much else I can say except for the 2 songs were ABC and Eierschlem. Also it's kinda hilarious reading the screenshot from the website "the characters can make more ringtones!" after Jambo was retired after 2 videos, sweety was killed off during a "Vogelgrippe" video series. Sweety's final video was d3@d sweety with an alarm playing saying "PoLoNiUm AlArM" and cackling. Nessie was retired a year or 2 before the game's production, and Mad Dawgz was given the boot after ONE RINGTONE. Ok, back to the characters. Sweety made many ringtones such as a funky town remix and a nice lil whistle tune known by 3 names, Sweety's Summertime, Sweety Siffle, and La ballade de Sweety. Though in early 2007, with Jamba Deutsch klingeltön "Vogelgrippe", sweety was officially on the verge of d3@th. I mentioned the final sweety vid above. Nessie had only a few songs (which were catchy) and a plush. However, Nessie had no buildup to being retired like sweety. The special abillty for Nessie was fire breath. Now finally, since I didn't look into Mad Dawgz, I can't say much but the playable character was No.1, and their first (and last) ringtone was "Where my Dawgz at". Big thanks for covering some jamster lost media LSSQ. P.S. crazy frog seems like a final boss, schnuffel was made in 2008 and moley came out in 2009. Right on with schnuffel & moley.
i was obsessed with crazy frog as a teen, and only figured out last year they castrated him for american releases 😂 i was so confused why my friends today thought he never had junk down there because yes he did!!
When I was researching "No Me Moleste Mosquito" I found a Villains Wiki article of the mosquitoes. I wouldn't be surprised if there is gay shipping art of the two.
XduckX also arrived here in Italy, and also had a nice dubbing from what I remember. I watched it regularly and personally found it entertaining. Strangely, however, only a handful of episodes were broadcast, in fact this is the first time I've heard how long this series lasted, I had always thought it died immediately.
So some time between 2013-2019, I watched a movie (don't remember which) and a commercial before the movie popped up. It was of this cyborg-like horse rider on the moon. Picture the Polo Ralph Lauren logo but a cyborg. The horse rider was dressed similar to some 1700s British soldier but wasn't wearing a hat, he had black or dark hair. The horse might have been a cyborg, robot, or normal horse. The cyborg's mouth unhinges open and his face plates open up like some FNAF animatronic. And he like explodes apart or something, with the moon gravity and stuff. The commercial was in a comic book type art style. The ad freaked me out when I was younger and first saw it. It's been haunting me for years. I think it was either in an AMC or Regal theater. I hope this is enough info to find it.
Question: do you remember any about the movie you were watching? Because if so you might be able to find some obscure ad compilations that might have the ad that played before the movie
I will never not find it weird that crazy frog just has his junk hanging out. For the most part, they got away with it too. It's one of those weird examples of artistic nudity just not bothering that many people, whereas if you did it on any other character it probably would.
This is the first time I actually watched lost media as a kid. X duck x used to be televised in german all the time and growing up my dad actually had one or two recorded in english, since I grew up bilingual in germany
I spent the last year trying to remember or find a show that started with a circus tent, today I finally found it and it was “it’s itsy bitsy time” I wanted some info on it but there is 0 RUclips videos on it and only limited info Iv found online, it’s from 1999-2002. Idk if you would find any Interest in it but hey it’s an untapped subject on RUclips. Love your videos!
If you thought XDuckX was a troll, Mega Babies is right up your alley. Legitimately the worst cartoon I have ever seen. Between the constant gross-out and animation style; I think the goal of the creators was to make the audience ill.
When it comes to X-DuckX: I found almost of the episodes in polish dub, however they are in very low quality. So I'm genuinly surprised that its so elusive because I remember watching it as a teenager.
YESSS JAMSTER LOST MEDIAAAAA Awhile ago there was actually a search surrounding one of the songs "psycho teddy" though im pretty sure thats all been recovered now
although there's rumors ( nothing is confirmed from what i know ) for versions in some other languages. I don't remembered which were the languages being rumored but i know that there is going a search for the portuguese version
Interesting about the bug show missing the episode titles. Even the lost 4kids ultraman tiga English dub adaptation 2nd half has mostly lost episode titles
Uruguayan here. While the design of the mosquitoes does look familiar, many ads use that style, even today. Otherwise i really do not remember that show at all.
HOLY SHIT WHAT A WAY TO REMIND ME OF SOMETHING, man i just clicked the video cuz of the duck on the right.... ON FUCKING GOD I USED TO WATCH THIS AS A KID, but i dont remember in what year and what age.... (south american Cartoon network probably, if not boomerang... if not disney XD). But it probably was a rerun... cuz i was born in 2004. And what is crazier is that you dont even mention an spanish dub... Is there one in the first place? i can hear one of the ducks voice in my head, but idk about latinamerican VAs so i couldnt tell who was one of the protag VAs, but definetly a VA that worked on various Nickelodeon shows arround 2000-2010s
the idea of crazy frog being a secret character in a video game is just funny to me. like he's a forbidden entity that can only be unleashed if you get every single jamstercoin or whatever.

I remember it being on ABC in Australia! The jagged, crooked way the ducks are drawn made them look like they were crushed by a truck, piano, other large object & I kept watching to see if they ever got better.
The show itself is pretty fun. The German dub is the only way to enjoy it.

Frankly I've enjoyed listening to Loco Loco's music on their YT channel aside from Mosquito and It Burns Burns Burns and they were unironically great to listen to :3
Hi, I'm German and watched a lot of X-DuckX on TV as a kid, so randomly getting a video with this thumbnail recommended was quite surprising! (aired on SuperRTL)
Also DuckTales, Darkwing Duck (I think on Kabel1, alongside Gargoyles), a Sitting Ducks show, which I only recently remembered, and most importantly Alfred J. Kwak (on Kika iirc) which is probably my favourite show that had a pretty big impact on me, Winnie Wana being probably my first crush. ^^
There's been a surprisingly large amount of duck stuff in my young years, not even mentioning the hundreds of Disney duckverse comics [the LTB/Mammut Comics/Carl Barks stuff etc.] that are a (in my experience) massive cultural thing here, cause even my father already read them back in his childhood, and I have a bunch of vintage originals.
So if I see something duck related, I click. :P
Also I had 'It Burns, Burns, Burns' earworm back into my head a few weeks ago, it also being a very classic memory.
I knew those mosquitoes seemed familiar!
Good stuff.
tom kenny once said that he got the idea for spongebob's voice from casting auditions with a bunch of elves - at least as far as i remember. i often wonder if elf bowling was the movie they were auditioning for.
I know for a fact that the moment the official Crazy Frig model is ripped, the Bikmin 269 mod would immediately get an update replacing it's Crazy Frog model with the one user in the PS2 game.
There‘s actually two Xduckx dubs completely found as far as I know. The one you mentioned, and the german dub. Didn’t know about the russian dub until your video though.
Edit:nevermind, you did mention the german dub. Although i do believe all the episodes are found, and not some missing
Nevermind #2, some have been deleted, and I just hadn‘t looked through the playlist yet. This does mean that all of them were found at one point
I remember catching an episode of Canards Extremes (XDuckX) on French-Canadian TV one time and thought it looked interesting. Looking it up led me down a rabbit hole where I found out that a lot of French/European animation have English dubs made that rarely see the light of day... at least not here in North America.
Sur super écran lol
Obscure English dubs of international cartoons seems to be a fairly common practice. In anime, the producer TMS Entertainment has had a history of making English versions of shows - often with ridiculous Americanizations of names - for appealing to western distributors and for use as a pivot language since it'd be more convenient for someone to go from English to Spanish / French / whatever than Japanese.
omg, i remember watching XduckX (Los Patos Extremos in Spanish) on UCV Televisión (Chile)
there's literally one part of an episode on youtube with the spanish dub.
i think the entire Spanish dub is lost media!
Me acuerdo que ese show estaba en fox kids, nunca lo vi pero lo reconozco por los comerciales
Missing too, was aired in other channel too in Chile
People who don't know the jamster cgi animals are very lucky people who should count their blessings. That yellow bird still brings out a deep rage in me that hasn't changed in 20 years
There is a quite interesting game which recently became lost media. It's name is Deo and supposedly was still buyable a couple of month ago, but now the website you could buy it is no longer in use and it seems very unlikly that the developer will ever release it again. I feel like there is a point to be made, how some things only become interesting, after they get lost.
Woha, I completely forgot about X-DuckX. I remember how strange I found the series even as a child.
And to No me moleste, mosquito, I'm sure I saw at least one episode as a kid on Nick Germany or Super RTL besides the music videos. It was shown as a kind of bumper, as the episode was only a few minutes long and had little to no dialog. I tend to think it was Nickelodeon though, because at the time they were still sharing a slot with VIVA, who showed a ton of Jamba commercials.
Everyone's grandparents had Elf Bowling because that's the only people who actually liked it.
I remember XDucX used to broadcast in Brazil, I never thought it'd be talked again (along with Ratz, about a pair or rats in a cargo ship, they used to broadcast back-to-back)
Dang, XDuckX just unlocked a memory. I had completely forgotten I watched that show as a kid, but seems the latin america dub is just as lost as the english one.
5:20 German here; I grew up watching xDucks lol; really disgusting humor but I remember enjoying it as a kid, and the dub was really good to be fair haha
"Maybe he's the reason we can't get a copy of Me and My Friends." lmao
Also, wow. I'm amazed that Elf Bowling movie had a sequel planned. It kind of reminds me of how Rapsittie Street Kids was supposed to have some Easter-themed sequel that never aired because the first one was just THAT terrible.
Honestly wonder how much of both got made...of like both sequels
I'm guessing not much but it is very curious
At least Elf Bowling is somewhat watchable animation-wise compared to Rapsittie Street Kids, to be fair
4:48 that part really tickled me idk why, yoou sounded so genuine
The It Burns Burns Burns music video being one of the few pieces of footage available for a lost series is something I never expected to learn.
Omg I remember finding No me moleste Mosquito completly randomly, just searching up the lyrics to The Mosquito by the band The Doors. Apparently that song became quite popular in other countries
About the ringtones! That reminds me of the lost media surrounding psycho teddy!
What I want to know is the band's connection to the No me moleste mosquito. Why did the studio behind the show decide to turn their show into a cartoon novelty act in the same vein as crazy frog?
The only character I know from this list is "Crazy Frog", but because there were music videos with this frog on TV 😅
DBMM/NMMM seems like a very interesting show, if some episodes get found i'll probably watch them
Honestly, I have NEVER heard of Schnuffel Bunny and Moley before, but Sweety the Chick was IMMEDIATELY recognizable to me. When it comes to Jamster/Jamba, Crazy Frog and Sweety were probably the most wellknown mascots to me.
Interesting that there used to be a whole action platformer for the Jamba/Jamster mascots in the works. Guess that Crazy Frog raging game isn't so bizarre now.
seeing X-duckX unlocked some ancient memories for me omfg-- growing up canadian meant I saw all these weird french, british, american, AND canadian cartoons on either ytv or teletoon. wish i was more into recording vhs tapes and burning cds back in the day considering how much of the stuff i used to watch religiously is now missing orz
i hope we can see more canadian lost media stories pop up. there is a lot i remember seeing back on YTV and teletoon that i cant seem to find much on
Finally, someone talks about Loco Loco
It is so hard to find anyone saying ANYTHING about it, it has been a fixation of mine for ages.
@@Luesversemine also
XDuckx had a pretty gread German dub, I remember watching it as a kid. It's a pretty good show actually for what it is.
I love the mosquitos man.
I loved Elf Bowling 🎳 the movie especially during the scene when evil Tom Kenny sings The Slavery Song 🎶.
i found here on youtube a full episode of the italian dub of X-DuckX when it aired on K2 and the italian dub is awesome !!!!!
Manda link cmq ne ho trovato una metà anche io
2:25 A little fun fact:
I made a lot of remixes by the band “Loco Loco”. Mainly because I really love making remixes, y’know?😁
I don't know mosquitoes were gay. honestly good for them, Love is Love.
i appreciate the rep lmao
who knew the world needed mosquito yaoi
@@qtips1719 Yeah, well, what else did you expect.
water is water so why wont u drink it from the toilet
It's one sided, other one's not into him
18:31 All of this reminds me of Josué Yrion, an evangelist who’s also Brazilian (but speaks in Spanish) and satanized Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Nintendo as a whole
I remember watching several episodes of X-DuckX on SuperRTL (iirc it was known as X-DuckX Extrem abgefahren) as a kid. It featured that well known Xilam slapstick (Oggy, Space Goofs) so I quite enjoyed it.
Found out later these also got a Polish dub (Ekstremalne Kaczory), airing around here sometime between 2001-2006.
Its funny how me and a few friends joked about there being a tv show about mosquitos annoying someone and why it hasn't happened yet. I guess we know they beat us to it and we can't find it.
I want to know how your friends reacted to that show lmao.
The segment of Dragon Ball where a villain controls Gohan and makes him attack his dad must be that part in the third DBZ movie where Tullece forces Gohan to transform into a giant ape
Actually, I can remember one other time a villain forced Gohan to attack his father, when Baby possessed his body in Dragon Ball GT. Goku looked like a kid there though so I'm not sure they would have used that.
I grew up watching X-DuckX. I am German and therefore I watched the German dub. It was one of my favorite shows. It's actually absolutely hilarious and clever and still holds up. The German dub is really good and extremely creative and experimental with its wording of making up buzzwords that don't exist, but make you wish they were real. It's 100 % authentic. J.T. Trash's voice actor had a Swiss accent and that was also hilarious. The soundtrack of the show was also amazing. Lots of techno trance and metal. And I especially loved the overexaggerated visuals. They were just really good. Truly a great show and I would recommend it, if you could actually watch it xD
The thing is that I was often watching the German dubs provided to RUclips to relive the memories and to entertain myself. There was a time when like half of the episodes were missing, probably due to copyright, but over the years, most of the episodes have been revived, as you said. Even in high definition!
I didn't know the entire Russian dub was provided as well, but it has always confused me why I could never find any other dubs, but the German. I knew the show was from France, but there's no French dub, nor any English dub either. I really dug into it back then and I'm so relieved there's finally an answer.
Thank you for solving this mystery for me!
I know the mosquito thing fron the "It burns burns burns,the curry is so hot hot"
I swear I've seen guilberto from "Boa tarde Brasil" I'd guess that was the original title since you translated it, probably kind of likely because I did watch a lot of news when I was little like "Fantastico" and that kind of stuff, though I was born after 2003. ALSO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THE WAY AMERICANS PRONOUNCE PORTOGUSE WORDS KILLS ME IF I HEAR ONE MORE PERSON SAY "Brie ki dough" WHEN THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT STUDIO BRINQUEDO MY BRASILIAN SOUL WILL DIE 😭
Hahahaha
5:58 first time i ever even heard about that show was through rebel taxi's Review on it many years back lol who knew this show would be brought up again
Same, that was Pans video on extreme and edgy cartoon shows.
God I just got a flashback from seeing that XDuckX show, I remember sitting in front of the TV watching that show and thinking, "What is this?" first thing I saw as a kid were I really didn't like it
"Yu-Gi-Oh is connected to the Yakuza." You're telling me Kazuma Kiryu made my Blue Eyes White Dragon?! 🤯
I haven't played those games yet but there's probably a non-zero chance that there's a sidequest that involves card games like that
@@novameowww There in fact is.
@@ApocalypseMoose i knew it
Looks like we have to wait until the tall mosquito stops casting an aura and we can finally get a copy of me and my friends
6:56 thank you for bringing back memories abt this show, I totally forgot it existed but I used to watch it with my little brother after school.
it was in french btw ill check if I can find anything in my home tapes
You helped me find the Schnuffel Bunny commercial. I've wanted to watch that again for years, but I had no idea what it was called. It wasn't exactly lost media, but thanks for helping me find it.
Hey sonic, can you cover Audrey and Friends on your next video? It was a British animated kids TV Series that had 26 episodes and ran on channel 5 milkshakes' Impossible Television from August 2002 to February 2003. So far, only the pilot of the series has been found and released.

X-DuckX was running on one of the go to TV channels in germany, so of course it stuck with some people, though still it was very unknown and nobody would mention it ever.
On the topic of Lost Media dubs, while not entirely lost it sure is hard to find: Allo, Allo! German dub was entirely officially created, yet only 2 of like 9 seasons were released on DVD and the rest was run at 1am like 2 times or so, so the only luck is for people to have saved it on VHS and as much as I was able to find there are some episodes missing or badly saved (audio desynced, cut offs, color quality demolished, etc.) Just wanted to mention that one, it's very popular in UK and Poland from what I've heard and has a firm place in my heart as one of the greatest comedy shows and the German dub is simply Chef's Kiss for that setting.
The X Duck X show was only really on the ABC on school holidays when they had an extended kids slot. I remember it being called “Extreme Ducks” or maybe “Xtreme Ducks”, I don’t remember it being popular and they often played the same episodes for the 6 or so weeks of summer holidays. This may also explain only 6 episodes in English being available? I could be wrong but you never know. Anyway I used to like it because it was a little edgier than the regular shows ABC showed and funnily enough, the ABC would usually show obscure dub shows during summer holidays like The Baskervilles or this one that I vaguely remember being a CGI short about Santa’s reindeer getting lost on a beach or something…it was a weird time
Not only did I watch XDuckX as a kid it was legit my favorite show. I even made my older brother draw the characters for me. Grew up watching the German dub in Vienna! Must be nostalgia but I don’t think it looks unappealing at all lol.
Request: I made this request before and I'll type it here for everyone to see, so I apologize if I repeated myself.
There's an educational Math-tutoring game for the Apple II computer called Math Jam released in 1985. What makes this game special is that it was the first game made by Naughty Dog (Crash Bandicoot, Jak & Daxter, Uncharted and Last of Us), then known as JAM Software.
It was made by the founders Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin when they were still high school students. They made it for a friend who struggled to teach children math. They made multiple copies for the school they attended and originally they intended to sell it but they couldn't so they gave the copies to the school for free. Only thing exist is the cover art. No ROMs or copies online or even video footage.
IS THAT THE LOCO LOCO MOSQUITO IN THE THUMBNAIL!.!?!?!?
9:02 to 13:27 is the jamster section.
The elephant is Jambo elephant. The other name was Elli Fant (i like Elli Fant better). The special feature was shockwave jump for Jambo. Not much else I can say except for the 2 songs were ABC and Eierschlem.
Also it's kinda hilarious reading the screenshot from the website "the characters can make more ringtones!" after Jambo was retired after 2 videos, sweety was killed off during a "Vogelgrippe" video series. Sweety's final video was d3@d sweety with an alarm playing saying "PoLoNiUm AlArM" and cackling. Nessie was retired a year or 2 before the game's production, and Mad Dawgz was given the boot after ONE RINGTONE. Ok, back to the characters.
Sweety made many ringtones such as a funky town remix and a nice lil whistle tune known by 3 names, Sweety's Summertime, Sweety Siffle, and La ballade de Sweety. Though in early 2007, with Jamba Deutsch klingeltön "Vogelgrippe", sweety was officially on the verge of d3@th. I mentioned the final sweety vid above.
Nessie had only a few songs (which were catchy) and a plush. However, Nessie had no buildup to being retired like sweety. The special abillty for Nessie was fire breath.
Now finally, since I didn't look into Mad Dawgz, I can't say much but the playable character was No.1, and their first (and last) ringtone was "Where my Dawgz at". Big thanks for covering some jamster lost media LSSQ.
P.S. crazy frog seems like a final boss, schnuffel was made in 2008 and moley came out in 2009. Right on with schnuffel & moley.
X-Duck-X looks familiar. I think I've seen pictures of the two ducks. But I don't remember ever watching the show.
ELF BOWLING! unlocked a memory for me. I remember a teacher having it on the class computer and he'd let us play at the end of the day. 😊
i was obsessed with crazy frog as a teen, and only figured out last year they castrated him for american releases 😂 i was so confused why my friends today thought he never had junk down there because yes he did!!
When I was researching "No Me Moleste Mosquito" I found a Villains Wiki article of the mosquitoes.
I wouldn't be surprised if there is gay shipping art of the two.
XduckX also arrived here in Italy, and also had a nice dubbing from what I remember.
I watched it regularly and personally found it entertaining.
Strangely, however, only a handful of episodes were broadcast, in fact this is the first time I've heard how long this series lasted, I had always thought it died immediately.
everytime i get back into listening to media BAM u post
4:50 LSSQ, I am loving the humor in this video!
So some time between 2013-2019, I watched a movie (don't remember which) and a commercial before the movie popped up. It was of this cyborg-like horse rider on the moon. Picture the Polo Ralph Lauren logo but a cyborg. The horse rider was dressed similar to some 1700s British soldier but wasn't wearing a hat, he had black or dark hair. The horse might have been a cyborg, robot, or normal horse.
The cyborg's mouth unhinges open and his face plates open up like some FNAF animatronic. And he like explodes apart or something, with the moon gravity and stuff. The commercial was in a comic book type art style.
The ad freaked me out when I was younger and first saw it. It's been haunting me for years. I think it was either in an AMC or Regal theater. I hope this is enough info to find it.
I'M LOOKING FOR LEADS, NOT LIKES.
sounds like Saber Rider
Question: do you remember any about the movie you were watching? Because if so you might be able to find some obscure ad compilations that might have the ad that played before the movie
@@Alexyellow_ It might of been both Lego movies, Ice Age Collision course, The Secret life of Pets, Trolls (the first one), Cars 3
@@wolfneumann9675 IT'S AN AD, NOT AN ANIME, 2013-2019 NOT THE 80s!
I will never not find it weird that crazy frog just has his junk hanging out. For the most part, they got away with it too. It's one of those weird examples of artistic nudity just not bothering that many people, whereas if you did it on any other character it probably would.
This is the first time I actually watched lost media as a kid. X duck x used to be televised in german all the time and growing up my dad actually had one or two recorded in english, since I grew up bilingual in germany
Random fun fact: Polish dubbing of Beetlejuice TAS is lost media and only one episode with Polish dubbing was found
And this is probably not the only case of lost media related to dubbing
I spent the last year trying to remember or find a show that started with a circus tent, today I finally found it and it was “it’s itsy bitsy time” I wanted some info on it but there is 0 RUclips videos on it and only limited info Iv found online, it’s from 1999-2002. Idk if you would find any Interest in it but hey it’s an untapped subject on RUclips. Love your videos!
What country was it from?
The jamster all stars just reminded me about a pilot for a show they were gonna make. Its called Ringtone Death Match and the pilot is on youtube
I had a vision of the Elf Bowling Movie in my dreams, despite never seeing it. Most horrifying deja vu I've had.
If you thought XDuckX was a troll, Mega Babies is right up your alley. Legitimately the worst cartoon I have ever seen. Between the constant gross-out and animation style; I think the goal of the creators was to make the audience ill.
The fact that it was created by the Tremblay brothers of SWAT Kats fame makes it SOUND fake & yet it's 100% real.
i loved that show lmao
It was the art style that made some of the characters look grotesque.
The fact that I was thinking about x duckx yesterday is insane
The creator of this video probably thought it back into the noosphere.
When it comes to X-DuckX: I found almost of the episodes in polish dub, however they are in very low quality. So I'm genuinly surprised that its so elusive because I remember watching it as a teenager.
4:34 i hope this gets found now just so i can see toxic bug yaoi
holy crap, it's them. the ducks. i'm starting to remember the ducks
same 😂
xduckx is just oggy and the cockroaches and ducktales combined with sports
THIS JUST IN the me and my friends full theme has been found unfortunately the full pilot isn’t uploaded yet
YESSS JAMSTER LOST MEDIAAAAA
Awhile ago there was actually a search surrounding one of the songs "psycho teddy" though im pretty sure thats all been recovered now
although there's rumors ( nothing is confirmed from what i know ) for versions in some other languages. I don't remembered which were the languages being rumored but i know that there is going a search for the portuguese version
@@ervilhaswow ooohhhh i'll have to look into it
I use to watch that duck show it was in english I loved that show as a kid
Interesting about the bug show missing the episode titles. Even the lost 4kids ultraman tiga English dub adaptation 2nd half has mostly lost episode titles
Heck, even Ultraman TIGA’s full English dub is sorely needing a whole Blu Ray release because it has been found only recently!
Uruguayan here.
While the design of the mosquitoes does look familiar, many ads use that style, even today.
Otherwise i really do not remember that show at all.
HOLY SHIT WHAT A WAY TO REMIND ME OF SOMETHING, man i just clicked the video cuz of the duck on the right.... ON FUCKING GOD I USED TO WATCH THIS AS A KID, but i dont remember in what year and what age.... (south american Cartoon network probably, if not boomerang... if not disney XD). But it probably was a rerun... cuz i was born in 2004.
And what is crazier is that you dont even mention an spanish dub... Is there one in the first place? i can hear one of the ducks voice in my head, but idk about latinamerican VAs so i couldnt tell who was one of the protag VAs, but definetly a VA that worked on various Nickelodeon shows arround 2000-2010s
