It’ll be interesting to see how tonight’s anniversary/ highlights special of The Footy Show on Nine does vs Seven’s Grand Finale edition of The Front Bar. The former fell out of love with a lot of the public in its later years, even being beaten by the latter when head-to-head and Sam Newman always created some controversy over the years, also not sure his very recent headlines in the media over the ‘Welcome to Country’ will help. It does get a jump, an hour’s head start. I predict there’ll actually be quite a few tune-in (OG fans and die hards of the show), but expect FB to comfortably win as usual, going off another impressive year and recent months in Melbourne alone.

Had no idea that Channel 9 was playing Skippy from the 1960s at 5.30am on Saturday mornings. Bit of classic tv nostalgia.
3 Likes
It has popped up on the overnight schedule occasionally over the years, I guess this is at least a bit of a more consistent slot. A few years back they also used to run Thunderbirds on Saturday early mornings. Probably been 10+ years for that one though.

Yes, that was replayed on Saturday mornings at 6am throughout the 70s/80s/90s and early 00s. Nine seems to have a soft spot for these shows.

Skippy is on 9Gem as well - weekdays at 7.30pm and Sunday mornings. I believe that Nine had rights to the show “in perpetuity”.

How would they have a rights deal like that?

A very old legacy deal.
2 Likes
Yep:
Producer John McCallum first offered the show to Australian Frank Packer, father of Kerry Packer, who bought the show after a brief screening (in fact, one that wasn’t even complete due to projectors breaking down).
He paid a one-off fee for the show in perpetuity.
"…The producers of Skippy took an enormous financial risk to make a TV series on film and in colour – and that risk ended up paying off handsomely. But it wasn’t a certainty, it was a hugely expensive operation which is why they gave endless syndication rights to Nine in a last ditch bid to cover their massive costs.”
…Another was Spyforce (Nine, 1971), a WWII drama starring Jack Thompson, Bill Hunter and Chips Rafferty. Spyforce is now moving to a regional network (Saturday on WIN Peach) because they don’t accept that Nine owns it, despite Nine having had broadcast rights, in perpetuity, since making the show.
That’s why Spyforce (and Skippy) have both been staples on Nine for nearly five decades. No Aussie show has ever been repeated more times on Australian TV than these two. In fact, there has never been a year when Spyforce and Skippy have not been on Nine.
