Season 3

01 U-Matic (or, How I Spent My Summer) Episode 110th July 2014 So much for taking a break... 02 The Great Archive Treasure Hunt Episode 224th July 2014 Another existential crisis in Archive-land? Get your head out of your ass, Benny boy! NOTE: If viewing this episode on a Pioneer VP-1000 unit (Serial #'s: 12467-21804), please turn your frame display function to the ON position. 03 Return of the Son of Record Rip-Offs (or, Record Rip-offs, vol. 3) Episode 37th August 2014 We've only just begun...to hurt. 04 Macrovision (and one other nostalgic copy-protection hassle) Episode 421st August 2014 Copying this video may cause your computer to randomly burst into flames. The Archive assumes no liability. 05 LaserKaraoke Vol. 2 (Aqua Net Edition) Episode 54th September 2014 Is there really such a thing as too much LaserKaraoke? Let's find out with this special double (if not triple) length episode! 06 Laserdiscs (and their children) Episode 618th September 2014 For all the time we've spent with this format, a full look at it (and its offshoots) seemed only natural. 07 Copy-Protection Vol. 2 (Odds and Ends) Episode 72nd October 2014 WARNING: This episode is coated in a new, ultra high-tech substance that may cause colorful sparks to emit from your computer. Also, << 08 Shortwave DX-ing (or, Shortwave for Rank Amateurs) Episode 816th October 2014 The most headache-inducing Archive episode to date. Guaranteed. 09 Hallmark Presents: The Sounds of Halloween Episode 923rd October 2014 This year's (apparently now requisite) Halloween album review. This was actually meant to be just a minisode, but it ran really long. Consider it a "bonus" Archive episode. 10 Halloween Special 2014 (Archive Wares: Rejuvenique Facial System) Episode 1030th October 2014 Test-driving a new, potential recurring concept, "Archive Wares". The idea is to look at items from the golden age of infomercials ('80's through early 2000's) and their ads and/or tutorial videos. Given that it's Halloween, it seemed only natural to discuss the most nightmare-inducting product sold via infomercials: the "Rejuvenique Facial Toning System". 11 Local TV Vol. 4 (Local Commercials) Episode 1113th November 2014 Well, that only took a year-and-a-half to follow through with another Local TV installment. No, this wasn't painful at all. 12 Oddity Archive's Greatest Misses Episode 1227th November 2014 Ben reviews the Archive (and then the world imploded). 13 Public Domain VHS Distributors (An Incomplete Overview) Episode 1311th December 2014 And welcome to the Oddity Archive, the show that isn't afraid to piss off VHS fetishists. 14 Christmas Special 2014 (Santa Claus IS Watching You!) Episode 1423rd December 2014 This episode is dedicated to----you, Amber. 15 Future Oddities (Benny-boy Predicts) Episode 1531st December 2014 After being asked all year about what Ben thinks the next generation of oddities will be, a New Year's special seemed to be in order (somehow). 16 1-900 ARCHIVE Vol. 2 (Operators Aren't Standing By!) Episode 1615th January 2015 You asked, we gave. $683.43 will now be added to your next phone bill. 17 VHS Vault Vol. 6: How's Your Sex Life? (Valentine's Day Special 2015) Episode 1712th February 2015 Ladies' man that Ben and Ed are, they didn't really need this. This is really for all the lonely folks (especially the guys) that watch the Archive. 18 The DuMont Network Episode 1829th January 2015 Maybe all those DuMont jokes in all the 50's-centric Archive episodes will make sense now. Maybe. 19 Video Games (A Non-Gamer's Perspective) Episode 1926th February 2015 Q: y u no duvide gams? A: Because I'm not that kind of girl--er, wait. Did you mean "Video Games"? I guess... 20 Audiocassette-Based Board Games Episode 2012th March 2015 Because, you know, VIDEOcassette board games went so well... 21 Electronic Talking Oddity Archive! (Electronic Talking Board Games) Episode 2126th March 2015 How many times do I have to tell you, China Cabinet? The money is NOT in the fishtank! 22 Record Ripoffs Vol. 4 (For Vinyl Fetishists Only) Episode 229th April 2015 Every now and then we get to thinkin' you'd like to hear somethin' from us done nice and easy. Well, lemme tell ya, we don't do NOTHIN' "nice and easy"... 23 3DO Interactive Multiplayer Episode 2323rd April 2015 An (unintentional) almost-three years in the making... 24 Philips CD-i (Compact Disc Interactive) Episode 247th May 2015 It's a computer! It's a home video unit! It's a video game console! It's...a little underdeveloped. 25 WebTV (and one other early internet/tv crossover) Episode 2521st May 2015 boxes Boxes. BOXES!!! 26 The Death of Analog TV Episode 264th June 2015 The Archive has been deemed obsolete. Irony noted.
