In 1995, the ABC sitcom Full House was cancelled, with the network citing increased production costs and the contracts of several main actors expiring as the reasons for cancellation. However, despite cancellation, there were ongoing negotiations to keep the show going on the new network The WB, though these plans never panned out, and Season 8 was the final season of the show.

However, there were allegedly several scenes for a planned Season 9 filmed during Season 8's production that were to be shown to WB executives as a test to see if they would want to pick up the show. But, several main cast members (Stamos, Cameron) wanted to move on and would either be merely recurring/guest characters or not appear at all, and The WB was only willing to hire one Olsen Twin to portray Michelle, so the plans fell through. The cancellation was pretty abrupt, as the "finale" (Michelle Rides Again) was not actually written to be one, so they had to add a few new scenes to give it some sense of finality, and some of the younger actors allegedly didn't even know the show was done until the final taping (which was NOT the final episode, but another episode in Season 8).

There were allegedly some set photos in an entertainment magazine of Season 9 in 1995, but beyond that, evidence of any footage seems to be lost. It very well may never have existed, but I've seen enough Reddit posts and YouTube videos talking about it to think that there might legitimately be something out there.

From an interview in 2017:

>Björk has opened up about a lost collaboration with the Wu-Tang Clan. In a new interview with FACT Magazine, she discussed wanting to have RZA contribute beats to her 1997 album Homogenic. After that didn’t pan out, Björk flew to New York to meet the group. “We wrote a couple of songs together,” she said. “Sometimes when you do things and you don’t plan them it’s magic. And I really think what we made was magic. But I think because it wasn’t part of the whole Homogenic thing and it wasn’t part of what Wu-Tang were doing at the time, it was better as an idea, if that makes any sense?” Björk added that she later connected with the group at an event at Tower Records. “I was signing books for an hour, and they sent some of their team, standing there with me,” she explained. “That was one of my all-time favourite moments: I had been on my own, so when they turned up I felt very protected. It was magic.” She continued, “In my eyes, they’re punk. We are definitely \[similar\]—we do things in, like, a ritual way.” Read the full interview here.

Has anyone heard of this / found anything? Not sure if related, but found this RZA remix of Bachelorette (from Homogenic), as a bonus track. Maybe it's related? :

From Wikipedia:

"A CBS camera caught a disgusted Gumbel blurting out, "What a fucking idiot," just after he had finished a hostile interview with Robert Knight of the Family Research Council (FRC). The incident occurred at about 7:15 a.m. ET on Thursday, June 29, 2000, following Knight's appearance to defend the Boy Scout policy of excluding gays from being leaders. The Media Research Center reported that he uttered those words; Gumbel openly admitted to saying so when guest-hosting a June 2007 episode of Live with Regis and Kelly."

The Media Research Center's page on the incident, which includes a now-unplayable RealPlayer media file of Gumbel's alleged use of the word "fuck," is below:

Unfortunately, all I could find was this screenshot from the 2000 broadcast from the aforementioned page:

However, I do remember downloading it and being able to view it years ago. I downloaded the clip again recently, but am unable to get it to play on several media players I have tried. I've searched for it on all the usual video-sharing websites, but have come up completely empty of finding anything.

Pizza-biyori (ピザびより) was the short-lived Japanese mobile-only website and Gijinka character series by Pizza Hut.

Pizza-biyori featured the Gijinka characters of Pizza Hut's pizzas of the time, and the website contained various content featuring the characters, mainly Yonkoma webcomics.

There were six characters in Pizza-biyori:

• Mayo-Q-tan (based on Mayo-Q)
• Mushroom-tan (based on Bacon Mushroom)
• Kani-Ebi-tan (based on Kani-Ebi (crab and shrimp))
• Bulgogi-tan (based on Bulgogi)
• Seafood-tan (based on Seafood)
• Deluxe-tan (based on Deluxe)

The site ran from July to September 2007 and was inaccessible from a PC. The Wayback Machine hasn't archived everything, and only a little information can be found in a Wikipedia article and a Nico Nico Pedia article.
