    i am wondering when vampire diaries season 3 is coming back to chanel Go in Australia,they just repeated season 1& 2 wheres 3..i would really like to know,

  2. David Knox October 5, 2009 at 4:34 pm -

    Love Nip but the ep isn’t one of their better ones. Couldn’t bring myself to give it Top Pick. S5 is a bit off centre…

    I love that Nip/Tuck is back on but I am so behind in the series. Last ep I saw was season 3 final.
    Does anyone know what song is being played in the ad for Nip/Tuck?? Its really catchy but of course I have not seen the ad again since then so I can’t take a guess or search the lyrics. Anyone know???

    so they bumped nip/tuck for a week to be replaced by the apprentice australia, as if putting it on GO! is going to force us to watch it. but what does this mean for the vampire diaries repeat? is it going to be on at midnight or not at all? my EPG isn’t showing anything past the apprentice.

    Series 5. I’d rather them started from season 4 so i knew what the hell happened. Plus it means i missed Mario’s episode. Good to see it back on though.

    I was really enjoying Speeders, hope it returns at a later stage at a different date and time.

    >group hugs< everyone for David for bringing Nip/Tuck back !!!

    For The Vampire Diary Fans, I created a web forum dedicated to this series as well as the books :)

    Well done Go! – now we have no local content at all. Both Funniest Home Videos and Neighbours at War were hardly the finest viewing, although the latter was funny in a pathetic sort of way. I thought networks were supposed to show 55% local content or does that not apply to new channels?

    I was watching ACA last night and they were showing stuff about the seinfeld reunion and at the end of the story Tracy said that the new series of Curb will be shown early next month, do you have any info to the airdate of Curb on GO!?

  11. allan September 16, 2009 at 1:47 am -

    no one said Neighbours at War or Dog The Bounty Hunter won’t come back. Dog season 1 has been played right through anyway, so its not like nines taking that off at a random episode interval.

  12. Paull September 15, 2009 at 11:31 pm -

    Nooo! Not neighbours at war! I love that show, it’s hilarous, I can’t believe it’s getting the boot!!

  13. David Knox September 15, 2009 at 11:23 pm -

    Series 5 Ep 1.

  14. Jed September 15, 2009 at 11:20 pm -

    Yay Nip/Tuck. And i can record Ashes to Ashes and watch Nip/Tuck awesome. Where will GO! be playing the series from???

  15. daqua_99 September 15, 2009 at 9:57 pm -

    Should be good. I’ll still be watching FlashForward, but I’ll catch this at 11:30 if I don’t have to work the 6am shift Tues mornings.

    I really like Go’s programming, though I thought a Nine exec said just a week or so ago they were trying to not cancel shows on Go, but move them to later shifts …

  16. Edu September 15, 2009 at 9:22 pm -

    OMFG, now that I’m enjoying Speeders and Go! will take it out? Where’s justice here?? TVD should better be good. Why don’t Nine just obtain the rights for True Blood, I know for a fact that this one’s bloody really good.

  17. Tasha September 15, 2009 at 8:41 pm -

    They are taking off Just Shoot Me for this? Vampire Diaries had better be good.

  18. Brodie September 15, 2009 at 8:26 pm -

    Excellent news for Nip Tuck fans. Looking forward to it.

  19. nick September 15, 2009 at 8:18 pm -

    Sooo happy with this, Vampire Diaries looks cool but have been hanging out for Nip/tuck (looks like your’re the person to thank David!) now we really have little to complain about!! I’m so happy with Nine’s programming decisions for GO!, and it seems to be paying off for them. The week of the 27th is going to be huge!! Finally out of the sloppy TV season.

  20. David Knox September 15, 2009 at 7:55 pm -

    Thanks Nate. You are correct. Forgot about bloody 9HD (as has most of the country!). Very glad to see it back though after I personally rallied for it with a Nine exec who asked me whether it would appeal to the GO! audience. Hello!

  21. Craig September 15, 2009 at 7:39 pm -

    Being on GO! it’s not going to rate any where near FlashForward or any of the other shows on the main channels. But what it will probably do is ensure Nine wins Monday nights for the foreseeable future.

    Greys and Desperate are unlikely to air until 2010.

    Looks like we’ll all need banks of DVRs to record all we want to watch or just DL shows that conflict no matter how fast the networks show them.

  22. vid September 15, 2009 at 7:37 pm -

    @Lou D…other networks do did the same at one stage….. so nine is just not useless… just taking risks

  23. Nate September 15, 2009 at 7:29 pm -

    Bit of a mistake there David. PayTV isn’t the only place to show Season 4, 9HD aired it earlier this year.

  24. Damon September 15, 2009 at 7:28 pm -

    Any news on when Foxtel will start recieving Go!?

  25. Amir September 15, 2009 at 7:15 pm -

    That’s a bit risky putting it up against Flash Forward!

  26. greysfan September 15, 2009 at 7:14 pm -

    Holy Crap. The week just gets bigger and bigger. All i want now is Grey’s Fast Tracked and i will be happy but that wont happen. So much TV to either watch live or on record. I mean Skins is also on Mondaym, plus Flash Forward and now Nip/Tuck and Vampire Diaries. I think i might need to go and buy another PVR.

    GO! is becoming a super power. Seven get your act together already otherwise you mightnt win another week this year.

  27. bindi September 15, 2009 at 7:11 pm -

    thank god for the repeat episode, it is up against flash forward!

  28. Vic September 15, 2009 at 6:56 pm -

    David, any news about whether Dog will be shown on another night? Sure, it’s trashy viewing, but I’ve grown kinda fond of it.

  29. Lou D. September 15, 2009 at 6:50 pm -

    Channel 9 are useless and people have to wonder why people download eps?!

  30. David Knox September 15, 2009 at 6:37 pm -

    Looks like the week of the 27th just got bigger!
