YSTV has a long history of making plans for programmes and them getting quite far down the line towards actual transmission...but never quite getting there.  Or in many cases being suggested (perhaps on the [[YSTV Messageboard]]) and that being it.  Here are some examples.

1989 - [[Image:AdversePublicity.png]] A creative moment from [[Benet Allen]] and [[John Cornley]], that survived thanks to a BBC floppy disc.

2002/3 - Y Fronts
2002/3 - Y Fronts
*Promised in the [[Freshers' Week]] booklet for two years but never materialised.  Really nothing more than a name (similar to GUST's G Spot) but variously described as a "magazine show about everything and anything" and later on a game show.  Many ideas from the latter ended up in [[The Great Big Massive YSTV Christmas Quiz Game Show Thingy 2003]], and YSTV's game show ambitions were eventually satisfied by [[LipSync]].

2003 - The Union
*A [[rip-off]] of The Office proposed enthusiastically as a station meeting by some random students who apparently had a full script in place.  The programme was going to transfer the concept of The Office completely to a students' union and basically re-write entire episodes of the BBC show to be set around YUSU.  After this initial burst of activity the instigators vanished and nothing was heard of the project again. The concept made a second appearance in 2013, with the successful launch of [[Union]].
2004 - Survival
2004 - Survival
*Planned as "Banzai meets Distraction", whatever that would result in.  Basically involved students aiming to get the five things they all required: food, drink, clubbing, sleep and sex (the last one would have been interesting).  An idea by [[Pete Nichols]].

2006 - The East Wing
* Supposedly a filler for [[Elections 2006]], a [[rip-off]] of the West Wing from [[Kev Larkin]] based in Alcuin East Wing. A script was produced but never filmed.

And finally, one that stalled at YSTV but was made - eventually!
2006 - Kev Loves That Stuff
2006 - Kev Loves That Stuff
*Based upon that catchphrase of the same name from 2005-6 (no-one knows who started it).  Basically a big long list of stuff that [[Kev Larkin]] loves, with talking heads to support it.  Some of this was even filmed, and apparently may still see the light of day...
*Based upon that catchphrase of the same name from 2005-6 (no-one knows who started it).  Basically a big long list of stuff that [[Kev Larkin]] loves, with talking heads to support it.  Although the project stalled during Kev's time as a member, editing for this was completed outside of YSTV some years later by [[Sarah Selby]].  The long-awaited premiere was held in York on 25th May 2013, over seven years after most of the original footage was filmed!  It was attended by thirteen YSTV alumni from around the period that Kev was a member of YSTV, and followed by an updated countdown of the things that Kev loves in 2013.
