[sam76]

Although it finished 10 years ago, the format could easily be adapted to today.

I say bring back Hey Hey!

I say bring back Hey Hey!

Me too. Not necessarily with the same people, except for The Angel and Fred Fly, 2 essentials. Oh, and Ozzie of course.

 

[Sean K]

Yes, only if The Angel and Ozzie host.

The rest turned to mush late in the piece.

Probably ran 5 years too long.

 

[springhill]

Success all depends who fronts the show, if its Dropkick Dazza i'd rather film the hair on my ass growing and watch 24/7 repeats of that instead
Wouldnt mind seeing Red Symonds involved in some capacity again, his dryyyyyy humor is up my alley, so to speak....

 

[YELNATS]

I'd watch it again, but only if they had the chook raffle and Dicky Knee was the host.

 

[sam76]

My fav was Plucka.

 

[alwaysLearning]

I wouldn't watch it but the duck was always funny.

 

[Tysonboss1]

I would like lavinia nixon to be a part of it again,

there is just not enough of her on tv

 

[son of baglimit]

tyson - you dont happen to work for the weather bureau - i hear they have posters of her in there lol.

HHIS - once a great show - saturday morning must - and then saturday night essential viewing - til about 85 when it started to be taken over by the commercial interests of channel 9 - til then it was "ok guys we have 18 segments to do in 3 hours - if we get 10 done weve done well" - and that was its magic - ad lib, no script, just a list of things to do and fitting in what was possible.
blackers upstairs, red & wilber (if anyone can remember wilburs pseudo audition to the night show in the last of the morning shows - a classic), the amazing 'post elton john concert' hour (or 2), the morning live shows (with amazing adult rated humour for that time of day), the angel, dickie knee, alfred desk mike, the list goes on.

one favourite memory - one morning daryl was wearing a shirt with
HEY HEY
ITS SATURDAY
written on the front. daryl wore a jacket over it. the lay of jacket however revealed only part of the message - primarily
HEY HEY
TURD
once noticed ozzie says "weve started a fan club for tv executives"
that was the finish for the day - 1 hour in and they couldnt do anymore, they were laughing that much.

p.s. i do have fond memories - i won chooklotto once - a trip to great keppel.

Could you imagine modern television reviving hey hey. You would have Rove as the new host, Gretel from big brother as his co host, Richard Reid as the us correspondent with his buddy Wilkins by his side doing the music segments, Kyle Sandilands doing the voice overs. Ah no thanks, rather keep the great memories of the show still in my mind then have a new version ruin them.

 

[Kremmen]

the amazing 'post elton john concert' hour (or 2)

I remember that one. They straddled an Elton John concert. Came back after it off their faces. They should have got pissed more often.

Honestly, it got tired in the later years, but I still watched it a little ... probably less than 10% of the time ... but that's still a lot more than the 0% of the time that I watch Sat night TV now.

 

[GumbyLearner]

I'd watch it again, but only if they had the chook raffle and Dicky Knee was the host.

Yes I agree.

Pluck-a-duck with Wilbur Wilde and/or Red Symons with a sledge hammer would also be a pre-requisite for watching

 

[Happy]

Could you imagine modern television reviving hey hey. ...

They have so many channels now they can re-run it from archives like Skippy or Mash or Friends

 

[sam76]

Perhaps someone at 9 trades shares.....

ABC or SBS would do a better job IMO......commercial channels are..... too commercial. it's all about the $$$$$$$$$

Maybe ABC should start " Hi Ho its Saturday" so they don't have to pay copyright!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[knocker]

Is this to replace their latest flop with that dancing show ? Bury free to air please.

Excellent.

Sam, you are truly in touch with the zeitgeist!

 

[Sean K]

I have read that Daryl, Dickie Knee and Plucka Duck will be back.

So what?

Maybe they should go to a Thursday night timeslot and host a footy show?

 

[justjohn]

Or should replace that other crappy show ''FAT PEOPLE SHOULDN'T DANCE''
