Shows Officially Available On YouTube

[Ikagura]

Gotta be honest, guys: I thought this thread was gonna have like three replies at most because of corporate greed or whatever, but I'm simply blown away by the sheer amount of free stuff to watch.

I'm still baffled that 80-100 years old movies aren't legally freely available. Paying for a remaster/version with found scenes I could understand in a way but not the original old quality ones.

Too bad so much of it is blocked for me.

You could use a VPN.

Yeah, man. And it's not just movies -- there's a decently-sized market for WW2 pictures because some of them are still not free to distribute. Like, the hell?

You mean actual WWII stuff from that era or reproductions to share online?

Maybe since it's for war it may have specific laws about them. Then again I think that they belong to a museum.

From that era, actually.

Most of them cut you some slack as long as you credit the source (this-or-that museum/archive), but some are bloodthirsty.

I remember an excellent FB page that used to host East Prussian imagery (from towns, cities and villages) that ended up getting in a lot of trouble and finally closed because of it, even as they were property sourcing their stuff.

Then there's the overzealous types that don't help, either -- there's a very nice Polish page documenting the history of Wroclaw through photos but they watermark them to hell, turning otherwise clear pictures into actual treasure commanding huge prices.

Restoring costs money but I agree.

Anyway, Archive.org has a ton of good old stuff such as OVAs and V-Cinema available to get before it's gone.

Wishing you luck. I hope you could find a free VPN with a decent bandwidth.

If only for yt videos, you could try this one (free plan). Proton is a reliable company (still a company, tho lol). Or maybe try using an alternative frontend, like invidious/piped and new pipe.

Jaspal Bhatti's Flop Show is a classic comedy show here, and frankly one of the few Indian shows I actually like. It is available to see officially free on youtube (though I dunno if they come with English subtitle or not).

You can also watch a lot of Sesame Street Episodes on the official Sesame Street channel.

Pee-Wee's playhouse is also there.

Also Alf is available to watch.

The very first addams family is also there.

Actually thinking of rewatching GS Mikami. Never did finish it, but I recall being like 13 or so episodes close to finishing it.

Easily one of the most underrated anime in existence.

Mikami was the only high-profile anime that survived the axe after budgetary cuts ended my childhood's TV network.

A bright spot on rather dark times.
