I guess it's possible that he got copyrighted on all the random non-Vh broll footage he used and is embarrassed to come back on here, but the reality is he got an email that said "put those videos on private and delete your vhlinks account or else. Have a nice day"

I watched a bit of the Doc...

Eh. Those that missed the window didn't miss much.

I suspect Alan is working whatever issues were raised with the material that prompted the take-down. As with anything legal... it's generally not prudent to share details while it's being worked. My hope is the issues can be sorted out and we get to see the remaining episodes of this epic documentary.
