A year or two ago I found an archive of what appeared to be a currently running public access show (or an otherwise obscure local television show). Probably from the greater New England area? I think it was called "____'s Show". The tagline of the show was "____'s Show is your show." It seemed like every episode had different hosts, or were pulled from a large pool of hosts.

Frustratingly any link to a sale on an Acid Jazz box set that was on my facebook feed this morning. Supposed to be through Harmless records but I can't see the box listed on their homepage, even for full price.
I can't find the thing that was on my feed earlier either. Assume that any time i go into facebook from another source i'm not going to find exactly the same feed as I had earlier anyway. Plus I don't think I was intentionally linked or subscribed to anything to do with harmless records. Did wonder why it was on my feed but it did look tempting. I just was on my phone when i first saw it and have far less access or display on that than on my computer. Now can't find it again. Looked on their Facebook page and it seems to be weeks behind the current date and no sign of the offer which I think was newer.

a gif, or even a video or img of some old hanna barbera / looney tunes etc. cartoon (surely this happened in more than one) where a cat goes through a wash/dry cycle and floats out in a big puffball.

Perhaps you wanted a more generic/anonymous cat but I remembered this happening in the Pink Panther and there it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y94584UUw1Q
Feel like there's a Tom and Jerry too but I'm at work and should probably stop watching cartoons.

one Christmas -- I wanna say around 1991 -- A Current Affair did a Christmas song; some singers came on with I think just a simple mall-piano accompaniment, these were piano-lounge types. It was clearly just a lark somebody ran with, the credits ran over it while the singers mugged: "A Current Affair! Satanic killings! A Current Affair!" etc.
tune's been stuck in my head ever since but the internet does not seem to remember it.

there are a few skits from the tracey ullman show that i remember fondly and precisely that simply do not exist on the internet, all these many years later. no scripts, no videos.
there was also a list put together by some british music magazine -- a list of great heartbreak songs, called "heartbreakers." it was a pretty interesting mix of the well-known and the obscure, ranging across genres (rock, soul, country, pop, etc.) and decades (from the 1940s to the early 2000s IIRC). i learned about a lot of great music from this list, which /was/ on the internet once upon a time. but in the past decade it seems to have entirely disappeared.

the cover of a 7" by a band called mouse (or something similar) drawn by ted mckeever. or a mention that such a thing exists. i know i added it to a list of ted mckeever's art sometime before 1999 and i have a copy in a box somewhere at home but now, sat at me desk at work, i can't find it. and that annoys me.

I thought I posted this already, but apparently not. In 1989, a guy in my fifth grade class wore a novelty t shirt to school that used the word frog in the place of the word "fuck". It had dozens of variations, which I can't actually remember but may have included things like motherfrogger, frog you, that's frogged up, etc. About halfway through the morning, he got sent to the principal's office and his mother had to being him a replacement shirt. I'd love to find an image of this shirt.
