History of Zachman Awesomeness Studios

The history of Zachman Awesomeness Studios is vast. Since inception, Zachman Awesomeness Studios has captivated the lives of many fans, mostly female, according to the late Zachman Awesomeness II's YouTube channel analytics. It is unknown if these analytics are the same in the Zachman Awesomeness III YouTube Channel.

## From Humble Beginnings

### 2015

Zachman Awesomeness Studios was founded on June 2015, under the YouTube channel Zachman Awesomeness II. From humble beginnings, it wasn't too big. The first series, titled Funny Animal Compilations, was introduced some time after the channel's registration was completed. Funny Animal Compilations would be the main series until YouTube's built in Video Editor was discontinued, thus forcing the series to end. Another series, Zachary the Express Train & Pals, was also in the works, which is a parody of Thomas & Friends. Since Zachman acquired Trainz Simulator 12, it is unknown as of now if Zachary the Express Train & Pals will ever continue production after releasing just ten short episodes in the span of a couple years.

### 2016

On July 24th, 2016, the first episode of 20th Century FOX Intro Bloopers was released. It was only supposed to be a one-off video to celebrate 50 subscribers. However, due to the amount of popularity it received and how much more popular the channel would become, TCFIB eventually became a series. Sure enough, the popularity of Zachman Awesomeness II started to rise. This little web-series would eventually become so successful that a movie was made based on the series a year later. The first official intro was also made this year, and got an update when Zachman Awesomeness II hit 50 Subscribers. The intro was updated for every small milestone after that, with intros made for 75 Subscribers, 100 Subscribers and 300 Subscribers.

### 2017

As more episodes of TCFIB were made, the popularity of Zachman Awesomeness II went through the roof. It is clear that if there were more episodes of TCFIB, there would be more fans. Alongside that, there were two spinoffs that got introduced: MGM Intro Bloopers and Jokes with Steve. Thus far, no new episodes have been made past the halfway mark of MGMIB Series 2 and Jokes with Steve only had two episodes. It's a possibility that they will return at some point. Another series, Trainz Thomas & Friends, started production in the year of 2017 as well. Two episodes have been made over the course of two years, which would mean that production on the show is vastly slower. There are plans to continue, however.

## Games, Comedy, & Many More

### 2018

Gaming livestreams have started sometime in 2018. It was a rocky start, but thankfully things turned out for the better in no time.

## The Great Downfall

### Mid 2020

Due to the absurd amount of false community guidelines violations, the original channel was terminated in late June 2020. Shortly afterward, a new channel was created as Zachman Awesomeness III. The reupload process of every core video from the old channel began.

### Late 2020

The majority of major videos from the old channel have transferred to the new one. What remained was the three short episodes from The TV's Educational Shorts series.

## Restoration

### Late 2021

On October 12th, 2021, YouTube lowered the subscriber requirement from one thousand to five hundred, thus allowing the current channel to get the community tab back, thus allowing it to go one big step closer to restoring the channel to it's former glory. There is still one goal left; earn ten thousand subscribers.

### Early 2022

20th Century Studios Intro Bloopers resumes production. The original series is expected to end by the end of the year. What happens after that is unknown.
