WAGP-TV, short for Angry Grandpa Television, was a mysterious local TV station that aired in the 80s to the Present. while not widely known outside of the Youngin City, Camp AGP area, those who remember it speak of it as a wild, unpredcitable of homemade content, rants, and off-the-cuff shows centered around Charles Green, aka Angry Grandpa (AGP), long before he became a viral YouTube sensation.
The Beginning of WAGP-TV in the late 1980s, before the rise of YouTube and social media, Charles Green was already well known among his friends and neighbors for his loud, no-nonsense personality and his often extreme temper. While many people in the community found his behavior shocking or hilarious, others saw potentional. AGP was, in his own way, a natural entertainer. He was larger-than-life, unfiltered and ready to tell like it was--whether anyone wanted to hear it or not. Inspired by local access television, Charles decided to take his unique personality to the airwaves. He cobbled together the means to broadcast a low power local TV station from his home, working with old equipment he either found or purchased at a steep discount. The idea behind WAGP-TV was simple, a channel dedicated entirely to Angry Grandpa's world, uncut and unedited.
The Content of AGP TV The station was a mix of live broadcasts, pre-recorded segments, and bizarre homemade programming Unlike most local channels, WAGP-TV had no fixed schedule, no commercials, and no overarching structure. It would pop up randomly throughout the day and night, often depending on Grandpa's mood or his access to the equipment. The content, however was legendary for those who managed to tune in.
Some of the common types of shows included:

"AGP's Rants": The bread and butter of AGP TV, this was essentially Charles Green sitting in front of a camera, ranting about everything Arrow bothered him at the time. This could be anything from local politics to how his family was driving him crazy, or even the neighbor's barking dog. There

The Decline and End of WAGP-TV
As technology evolved, the appel of local access TV began to fade. By the early 2000s, WAGP-TV's signal became more sporadic as the equipment aged, and maintaining the station grew more difficult. Charles Green, always one to embrace change when it suited him, recognized the growing power of the internet.
In 2007, with the rise of platforms like YouTube, Michael Green convinced his dad to take his antics online. Angry Grandpa's rants, pranks, and family drama found a much larger audience in the digital world and AGP TV was Not hpase out it air re run ithink Sorry chatgpt i mean Poberbook lied to u :(
Legacy of AGP TV Though short-It still alkive and largely unknown to anyone outside of the Camp AGP area, WAGP-TV remains a local legend, those who were able to catch its broadcasts, it was a one-of-a-kind experience, it was raw, unpredictable, and completely original--just like Charles Green himself.
WAGP-TV laid down the groundwork for what would become the Angry Grandpa Show on YouTube, proving that Charles Green was destined to entertain, whether it was through a local TV or millions of fans online.
around Youngin City, sometimes even setting up his camera outside to capture the storm while he ranted about how the weather "was out to get him." These storm broadcasts were eerie, with reports of flickering screens and audio distortion that added to the bizarre atmosphere. Some fans speculate that these episodes were never recorded, as Grandpa might have only broadcast them for the thrill of the moment.
3. The Cursed Call-Ins
During the later years of WAGP-TV, Grandpa introduced a call-in segment where viewers could phone in to argue or debate with him. However, some locals remember a handful of disturbing calls that aired late at night, where unknown individuals would say strange or creepy thing sthat clearly unsettled even AGP. Some viewers claimed that these calls came from people who weren't just messing around--there was a darker tone, as if they knew personal details about Grandpa and were intentionally trying to spook him. These episodes became infamous, with many wondering if the calls were staged or if they were a sign that someone was really messing with him.
4. The "Broken Broadcast"
One of the most famous pieces of lost AGP media is the so-called "Broken Broadcast." Supposedly, there wa sa night where AGP went live, but the entire episode was plagued by technical difficulties. The screen reportedly glitched, distorted colors bled through the image, and the audio was garbled beyond recognition. Angry Grandpa's voice could barely be heard yelling in frustation as he tried to fix the broadcast, but things only got weirder. Viewers reported seeing strange shapes in the background of his home, floating images that didn't seem to belong there. The episode abruptly ended after only 10 minutes and was never mentioned again.
Why Was WAGP-TV Never Archived?
There are a few reasons why WAGP-TV is now considered lost media:

Lack of Resources: Charles Green ran AGP Tv on a shoestring budget, often using secondhand equipment and recording over old tapes. Since the broadcasts were done in such a DIY fashion, there was little thought into preserving the content. Arrow

7. "The Broken Broadcast" - A strange episode that was full of technical difficulties. There was heavy static, weird colors, and Grandpa's voice kept cutting out. People have said this one felt especially eerie.
Found Media (What We Know):
A few small clips and segments from WAGP-TV have surfaced online, but not uch. Here's what I've been able to find:

"Steak Night Meltdowns" (Partial Clip): A grainy clip of Grandpa flipping his grill after burning steaks surfaced on YouTube a few years ago. It's about 2 minutes long but cuts off before the full meltdown.
"Michael's Big Prank" (Full Episode): There's actually a full VHS copy of this episode! A fan from Youngin City uploaded it a few years back. Michael pranks Grandpa with fake eviction papers, and Grandpa completely destroys his living room. Classic AGP rage.
"Midnight Rage" (Audio Only): Someone posted an old audio recording of this episode. No video, but you can hear Grandpa losing his mind over local politics and breaking things in the background. The audio is low-quality but worth a listen.
"The Halloween Special" (Fragment): A tiny, blurry clip of Grandpa dressed as Jason Voorheen chasing kids down his driveway. This is probably 10-15 seconds of footage but no sign of a full episode anywhere.
"Call-In Chaos" (Short Clip): A short clip from a call-in episode where Grandpa screens at a prank caller. The source of this clip is unknown, but it shows Grandpa answering the phone, getting insulted, and going off.
"Kitchen Carnage" (Excerpt): A VHS recording of Grandpa attempting to cook spaghetti, only for him to burn the sauce and throw a pot across the room. It's just an excerpt, but this one is pretty funny.

Still Missing:
There's probably a lot more WAGP-TV content out there that hasn't surfaced yet. A few Youngin City locals have claimed to have recorded episodes on VHS back in the day, but none of these have been found or uploaded.
Anyone out there know more about this or have any old recordings? Even if it's just audio or low-quality
