Most of you will have enjoyed many years of entertainment from original videos to Summer of Sonic coverage through the Sonic Show‘s website and youtube channel.
Unfortunately due to a malicious attack, the Sonic Show site and youtube channels both suffered an internet attack from a hacker earlier this week. While the Sonic Show site has survived, the youtube channel was deleted by the hacker, and unfortunately this has meant the loss of many years worth of hard work from the likes of hard working staffers such as Discoponies and Brad – including the Summer of Sonic 2008 retrospective.
However it will take more than one moron with nothing better to do to bring the Sonic Show down! A new youtube channel has now taken its place, and slowly but surely materials are being re-added.
I call upon all of you Sonic the Hedgehog fans out there who love the community to unite and support this rebuild by subscribing to the new Sonic Show youtube channel, so we can get this great show back on it’s feet.

Well this stinks…..good to see though that the materials are coming back!
Glad you guys wont take any bullshit!
Rock on peeps
I got to say, one of the most unforgivable sins IMO is malicious hacking/giving people viruses.
You have to be truly evil to do something like that.
Well, I can tell you one thing. It ain’t LulzSec OR Anonymous, because they disbanded, and went into hiding, respectively.
Only by name. It was part of their big plan to try and avoid being caught.
What a shame.
THE PSN CONSPIRACY, but seriously, this REALLY sucks. I really don’t get why somebody would take their time to do something like that 🙁
Why the fuck is everything getting hacked?
What a shame. I wish the Sonic Show all the best in getting back up on its feet. 🙁
Somebody has a vendetta against gaming companies and related issues.
First the PlayStation Network…Then SEGA…Now this. I’m sensing a trend…
The hell?
Gee whiz you’d think people would have better things to do rather than hack a sonic youtube account.
Honestly…
Just checking, but did you see if Youtube can restore the account? I doubt they’d delete everything right away.
So who wants to bet it was Lulzsec? It’s the type of H they pull.
Hackers have no life lately i hope they dont come back
I have to admit, When I read the title to this article, in the back of my head I thought it would be another Tails Doll joke.
i subbed the new channel. it is nearing 100 subs now
Who the bloody hell hacks a Sonic site!? Thanks for ruining years of hard work by a bunch of seriously dedicated fans. Dicks.

Have them just fill in their email and their old account name. I think if the account is reopened, the videos will reappear too. At least, it works that way when people appeal to have a suspended account reopened. This form is for accounts that were deleted though, so… You still might try your luck. 🙂
Oh, nevermind… I didn’t notice the red letters. ><' My bad.
Hackers are unfortunatly becoming more prominant in the growing digitial age and this means the problem won’t stop here. I’m glad the people over at the Sonic Show aren’t taking it standing down. I’ll subscribe as I love the Sonic Show and I hate hackers.
Fucking hackers , they really need to get a life!
somebody should make software where if you get hacked it hacks that person back shuts down their computer and alerts the FBI or the authorities and it’s nearly impossible to get around it
what the ever living heck?Wow,nothing but bad news concernign peoples creativities today :/ It’s like there’s something bad in the air today.
That was worded wrong…I should have said:nothing but people getting hacked today,and peoples work being stolen.
