EXP TV – endless stream of obscure media and video ephemera (exptv.org)

This is the closest I would get to watching Rick & Morty's Interdimensional cable TV :)

Interesting concept!

Nobody is commenting because if you click the link you're hypnotized for an hour

I think it would be even better if it were a live stream (maybe with chat to see others reacting to whatever bizarre broadcast happens to be playing).

That's some wholesome WTF.

Cool idea. I like the thought of having this on a monitor constantly playing at a bar for cyberpunk decor.

This shit is amazing! Thanks.

I wonder how many hours they have before you start seeing something you've seen already.

And just like that, poof, a thousand nerd hours of productivity go up in smoke.

It feels like I died and met J. R. "Bob" Dobbs.

I love it.

This should be hosted by Blank Reg from Max Headroom.

It reminds me too of Over The Edge / Negativeland.

I worked on this! It's curated by a few video editors in LA who collect vintage VHS tapes.

They've been doing it for many years, the stream is the cream of the crop. You can't imagine the scope of the discard pile.

Amazing!

Thanks for sharing!

It’s almost like the Internet K-Hole for video!

Kinda reminds me of neverthink.tv. Similar idea of endless video but curated into categories.

I wish I could find an alternative.

This is not bad!

I feel like I stumbled on this at an unfortunate time, because whatever is playing at the moment is very rapidly triggering a headache due to the flashing of clips at a rapid pace. Pretty sure I know some epileptics that would have been set off by this. Felt a little less like TV and more like that scene from Altered Carbon where the main character gets the unicorn backpack -- overwhelming bombardment of rapid images.

Reminds me of https://archillect.com/tv

reminds me of upl8.tv

This is really cool!

I find myself wanting to know a reference name or something for the clips that are shown. MTV would play the artist / song name at the beginning and end of each clip, and I find myself missing that little tag to mentally catalog these things.
