Season 3

1. U-Matic (or, How I Spent My Summer)

2014-07-10 · 24m

So much for taking a break...

2. The Great Archive Treasure Hunt

2014-07-24 · 35m

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.

3. Return of the Son of Record Rip-Offs (or, Record Rip-offs, vol. 3)

2014-08-07 · 36m

We've only just begun...to hurt.

4. Macrovision (and one other nostalgic copy-protection hassle)

2014-08-21 · 15m

Copying this video may cause your computer to randomly burst into flames. The Archive assumes no liability.

5. LaserKaraoke Vol. 2 (Aqua Net Edition)

2014-09-04 · 53m

Is there really such a thing as too much LaserKaraoke? Let's find out with this special double (if not triple) length episode!

6. Laserdiscs (and their children)

2014-09-18 · 24m

For all the time we've spent with this format, a full look at it (and its offshoots) seemed only natural.

7. Copy-Protection Vol. 2 (Odds and Ends)

2014-10-02 · 19m

WARNING: This episode is coated in a new, ultra high-tech substance that may cause colorful sparks to emit from your computer. Also, <<

8. Shortwave DX-ing (or, Shortwave for Rank Amateurs)

2014-10-16 · 20m

The most headache-inducing Archive episode to date. Guaranteed.

9. Hallmark Presents: The Sounds of Halloween

2014-10-23 · 15m

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)

2014-10-30 · 27m

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)

2014-11-13 · 29m

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

2014-11-27 · 16m

Ben reviews the Archive (and then the world imploded).

13. Public Domain VHS Distributors (An Incomplete Overview)

2014-12-11 · 26m

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!)

2014-12-23 · 28m

This episode is dedicated to----you, Amber.

15. Future Oddities (Benny-boy Predicts)

2014-12-31 · 14m

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!)

2015-01-15 · 25m

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)

2015-02-12 · 24m

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

2015-01-29 · 35m

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)

2015-02-26 · 46m

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

2015-03-12 · 20m

Because, you know, VIDEOcassette board games went so well...

21. Electronic Talking Oddity Archive! (Electronic Talking Board Games)

2015-03-26 · 32m

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)

2015-04-09 · 35m

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

2015-04-23 · 32m

An (unintentional) almost-three years in the making...

24. Philips CD-i (Compact Disc Interactive)

2015-05-07 · 37m

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)

2015-05-21 · 15m

boxes Boxes. BOXES!!!

26. The Death of Analog TV

2015-06-04 · 24m

The Archive has been deemed obsolete. Irony noted.
