Hm. I just go to view the BotP eps. I might need an account to view all 85, now? Can you get us some more information, please?

Let me know if they are still infected. It was trying the link the the "view all 85 episodes" that the virus attacked and everything froze.

Just sent the guy a message, lets see if he repsponds. Because I have an account and even I can't seem to view all the episodes for some reason )0_o


Posted by UnpublishedWriter on 14-04-2010 at 00:54:

Yeah, because it says 'View all 85 episodes', and we only get those fifty.

And YouTube does not make up the difference.

Until veoh is fixed, this website uses veoh player and other format and from this link, we can get all but the ghost island/mecha factory episode.

Are you sure you weren't listening to or watching all the Zark/Susan fillers?


Lol Looney Laugh2

And that was supposed to be safer than the violence. (Isn't usually the other way around?)


I do not want to offend anyone but, when I was just a little child and had the blessed opportunity to watch the original Gatchaman after a very short period of time watching BOTP, even then, my child's mind told me that it was better to watch the violence portrayed in Gatchaman than the s**t going on between Zark and Susan! And, even today, I'd rather let my very young children watch Gatch's violence (violence shown to them to a certain extent) than those fillers! I don't know how the BOTP series was intended to be more child friendly! Even the behaviour of Zark with the Swan and the Eagle, and vice versa, has never seemed in place to me! If only some of these, may I say, "errors" had not been done in the first place (together with some nasty art!), then, IMHO, it would have surely been a better series than it, in effect, has been.

Oh, no offence here. I agree wholeheartedly. All that crap was wasted space and took away from an otherwise very well-put-together story line. Would rather have that.

Got to run.

To be fair though, a lot of the Zark/Susan talk went over my head as a kid. I had no idea it was that bad until i got older. I just didn't like Zark because he was annoying and I felt like he was taking time away from the 'real show'.

I agree with that ... I too didn't understand wholly the significance of most of the discussions, but it surely felt out of place and peculiar picking up words at random! And I'm sure that our children can understand more of those discussions being more openminded, nowadays!

Same feeling here!

That was my thought as well. I never realized until watching it as an adult all that was going on between Zark and Susan. It is amazing how many shows I can watch now that I watched as a child and realize exactly what is being said.

That's what's happening to me! Even strategic plots, warfare and the many circumstances are much clearer now than when I was a child. Perhaps that's why we can appreciate old shows today more than before!

I have the issue with the movie Grease. I *loved* it as a kid. It was my favorite film and I'd sing the songs all the time... but it wasn't until maybe a decade later that I watched the movie and began to understand why my mother was always cringing. I had no idea about all of the sexual implications in it!

Hard to believe we all had such innocent minds once, isn't it?

There was one occasion I recall, when I was a kid, that my older brother made a comment that sounded completely innocuous to me but that caused my mother to rebuke him somewhat sternly. It was years before I figured out what his words had actually meant!

I just tried it. I wanted The Silent City, but it wasn't there. It said the video did not exist.

Something's up.

I've found it funny that as I've gotten older, and I really didn't think all that more worldly, that I've had to explain things to adults that were older and more worldly than I, or so I thought.

One of my favorites was explaining to a boss at a convenience store that no the guys buying a pack of Marlboro with rolling papers, but not the rolling tobacco, were not rerolling cigarettes but actually rolling something else in those papers.

Did I understand the innuendo between Zark and Susan at that time, probably not; but then when I first saw GoS, I knew some element of BotP was missing but I couldn't point to what. Guess Zark really left an impression on me.

Our parents and our teachers at school have taught us differently than our children are being taught today. Almost everything was illicit at those times! Even during the time in which our children are watching their cartoons on tv, their minds are being fed constantly by ads that IMO must not be transmitted during those hours ... today's cartoons themselves are full of comments and images that transmit sexual implications, etc (not that the series of our times didn't have such!). Videos of their favorite songs are also full of uncovered flesh (my kids love the type of music of Lady Gaga!)! Even if us parents try to be careful, we cannot hide everything from our kids ... and sometimes it's also a good thing, I think! I don't want my kids to face reality without knowing what they are dealing with or talking about! In the future, my daughter could encounter problems if she'll not be prepared to face dangers that she might encounter!

On a funny note ... for example ... I remember one very embarassing moment when I was a child of about 7 or 8 years old. I was watching an episode of one of our national most famous series and the protagonist was pregnant and in labor. Before my mother changed channel hurriedly (as she used to do when she thought something was not good for my eyes) I managed to take a short glimpse of what was happening and innocently asked her why the lady was in such pain! My mum, without trying to find the right words, hastily told me that the lady had swallowed a bug and that she fell ill! After some years I finally came to know what was the real nature of the bug! ... but not after I've been humiliated by some of my friends who knew better before me! It's still an embarassing moment for me when I think of it!

Hopefully without having to pester my brother who's currently in Turkey and not happy about it.




Out of curiousity, what operating system does your computer use? I currently have a virus issue on an older computer that's running Windows XP, and I think it could possibly be linked to Veoh usage.

(The BF is going to tackle it for me this weekend.)

Use Mozilla Firefox, get the No Script add-on. Most web based viruses are launched by JavaScript injection attacks, even devshed.com was issuing viruses to its clients when one of the banner advert companies it uses were hacked.

I have XP with Firefox browser. I have Norton for my primary virus protection, but needed Malwarebytes to completely remove both viruses.
