It's disheartening how much classic media is lost.

I'm trying to do a deep dive into 70s sitcoms and basically any that weren't hits are completely lost. Shows like The Partners, The Super, Hot L Baltimore. These were experimental shows for the time (single camera, cringe comedy precursors) from what I've read and they're completely lost.

I've even tried joining private trackers like TV Vault but concluded it's not worth the pain of going through that process. Considering I'm unlikely to find anything there.

History will only acknowledge the art that is mass produced. We seriously need to archive and keep everything. In 100 years people will likely not even know who Mr T is.
