OK, so most of the 1999 version of the series ZOOM is on Youtube right now, except for some season one episodes that stopped airing when the uploader started taping.
Here's something interesting, though. You know how the episodes have brief, 30-second scenes after the credits? Well, in 2002-2004 reruns (when the older episodes were "remastered" with new fundings and had ZOOM Into Action replace the original ZOOM a Cum Laude), these were changed on local versions of the second and third stations, and replaced with very brief, 15-second web advertisements. No worries, as the user, ZOOMFan1, got a station that aired the original versions, so we have pretty much all of the original end "stingers".
All except the ones from episodes 201 and 240, the premiere and finale of that season. For some reason, after 2001, the original end stingers were discontinued. Whatever they were, they must have been out of date, or something. If anyone has a recording of episodes 201 and 240 (they're both on youtube if you want to know what they contain), it's definitely valuable.
