Hey Hey repeats on GO!

By David Knox on October 8, 2009 / Filed Under Programming 32

hh9Nine will repeat both Hey Hey it’s Saturday reunions this Saturday night on GO!

The marathon/s will air from 6pm – 8:30pm and 8:30 – 11pm.

Nine pulled the first repeat last Saturday resulting in fan fury, amid speculation it would damage the ratings for the second show.

Update: But the repeat of the second show will not include the now infamous ‘Blackface’ sketch.

As a result the Dance Your Ass Off finale and channel premieres of Father of the Pride and Reno 911 all shift to October 17th.

Update: The first Hey Hey reunion will also screen on Nine 7:30pm Oct 17.

    @Joe can you clarify your foxtel reference? Go doesnt start till late November does it?

    Aaron: Not to mention Daryl on the cover, Daryl on the disc, Daryl this, Daryl that.

    But what I would love to see Nine do, is bring out a proper Jackie Mac DVD, incorporating a documentary on her career, from Jackie and All That Jazz to returning to Hey Hey in 2009, (sourcing clips from other places), and a strong line up of extras, including the “Fake” Chook Lotto from the second Hey Hey reunion.

    Brandon, I use a tv tuner card in my PC and that’s a digital tv tuner card. :)

    GO! screenings are shorter due to fewer ads and the cut Jackson Jive sketch.

    Originally I was going to watch the first repeat of Hey Hey on Saturday before it was pulled. Now I am going to give both repeats a miss (even though the “racist” skit has been taken out). I am sorry but that skit was so offensive and ignorant that it has given the whole series a woeful stench.

    @Dan how do u record go ???

  9. vid October 8, 2009 at 9:54 pm -

    @ Paull…. hey hey was film in HD.
    and no they will not increase the bitrate.
    GO! is not that bad…. if your viewing it on a lcd or plasma that had a built-in tuner..its very acceptable…but if your watching it via a set top box which is going into your dvd then onto your tv..then yes the quality is not that good.

    @ tasmanian devil …. the shows wont run as long on GO! because they dont have long breaks like nine….
    so in fact it will fit..

    @ David Knox says: “DVD could face right issues with guests such as Connick Jr. & Farnsy etc.”

    It’ll be alright … they can just cut that out too! Lose the musical performances (rights & licensing issues), Mollys bits (7 & Fox wouldn’t probably wouldn’t like it), and the Red Faces skit, I can picture it now … Hey Hey the Reunion DVD Box Set, featuring highlights from the two special comeback broadcasts (6+ hours of Daryl, Daryl, and a bit more Daryl)

    Hmm, maybe not.

    Pretty lame that Nein are going to edit it, might as well not bother…

    The only ppl offended are the yanks, and frankly, who cares what they think.

    I wonder how the Jackson sketch will be cut out.

    Am I the only one who found the Bike Guy more offensive than the Jacksons? I mean he was throwing knives, dealing with fire and used with sounded like a chainsaw. All the Jacksons did were dance to Jackson 5 songs with 5 of them wearing black make-up and 1 wearing white make-up.

    I found the Burpinator’s (sp?) skit quite weak. Apart from Red Faces it was a fairly enjoyable show.

    DVD could face right issues with guests such as Connick Jr. & Farnsy etc.

  16. tasmanian devil October 8, 2009 at 5:50 pm -

    Hasn’t Nine even realised that the shows go overtime? First pre-recorded shows going overtime, and now pre-aired shows going overtime? Honestly I don’t think they check at all how long their shows go for.
    @Ellis, perhaps it is useless for you but have you considered that maybe not for people with digital recorders?
    @stud muffin, just so you know, you don’t need HD to receive the GO channel.

    > So, won’t be able to do tape it on Go! now either….
    You can connect most STBs to VCRs. Easiest if the set top box has a RF Modulator, but most VCRs take composite input (Red/White/Yellow plugs) as well.

    If you are reading this site and don’t have a STB at all I’m surprised, but if you do, then you most likely can tape it. And there will surely be a DVD along if you can’t figure it out.

    Yay! Going to record these:)

  19. Reubot October 8, 2009 at 5:19 pm -

    err, STB I mean.

  20. Reubot October 8, 2009 at 4:22 pm -

    err, buy an STV stud muffin?

  21. Craig October 8, 2009 at 3:18 pm -

    So I guess no ‘encore’ of Seinfeld from earlier in the day or is that shifted until after Hey Hey?

    Between this and Bathurst I have a lot of recording over the weekend!

  22. Ryano October 8, 2009 at 3:03 pm -

    Yay! Now we can re-live Hey Hey it’s mediocrity-racism-20thCentury-day! enjoy.

    Ben- maybe the bitrate is good where you are but it isn’t in a lot of other places. are you regional by any chance? they have the best bitrate i hear. in qld it was really bad at the start, got a fair bit better after a few weeks, but lately it has started getting worse again, 11th hour last night was pretty bad. it fluctuates, sometimes it is good, other times it is bad.

  24. Daniel October 8, 2009 at 2:58 pm -

    Why not Nine! Does Daryl want to prevent a ratings ruin-er? Maybe just wait 2 weeks or so then air the show form say 6:30-9.26 for reunion 1 then a week later 6.30-9.56 for reunion 2. This might help all those who still can’t see it.

  25. stud muffin October 8, 2009 at 2:55 pm -

    They said this before, how they were going to repeat the show last Saturday night and it did not happen!! What happens to those who don’t have HD Tv and missed the show on Wednesday night?
    Will see what happens??

  26. vid October 8, 2009 at 2:44 pm -

    well done GO!

  27. Ellis October 8, 2009 at 2:28 pm -

    Considering Go! Isn’t on Foxtel, nor can you get an analogue signal to record it, then it’s really quite useless. I taped both episodes and made sure to allow for overtime and still missed the endings!!! So, won’t be able to do tape it on Go! now either….

  28. sponky666 October 8, 2009 at 2:26 pm -

    Er, who really gives a flying **** about whether Go! airs HHR with a higher or lower BR! I mean, at least it is being repeated, what else would you like nine to do? Release the 2 reunion specials on Blu-Ray as well?

  29. Ben October 8, 2009 at 1:58 pm -

    This is great news. And I hope they don’t edit anything out!! Plus won’t it go after midnight because the first one went about 20mins over and the second one went 55mins over. If it starts at 6pm it won’t finish until 12:15am… Pushing programs back..

  30. Ben October 8, 2009 at 1:46 pm -

    I don’t know why people still discuss GO!’s bitrate, it’s looked perfect to me since around Day 3 of broadcasting..

  31. Andrew B October 8, 2009 at 1:36 pm -

    Surely they could correct the running times to 6.00 – 9.00 and 9.00 – 12.30am or are they going to edit or reduce ads?

    Good news though, I was one of these people who were waiting to see last weeks’ on Saturday as I simply could not fit it in on Wednesday.

  32. Paull October 8, 2009 at 1:35 pm -

    Good move on 9′s part. A shame though that GO! has such a low bit rate because it looked good on the hi-def channel (even though I don’t think it was filmed in HD). Maybe we’ll see increased bit-rate once GO! starts airing local ads for each market.
