WIN also produced Good Sports which was a children’s show also shown on Nine stations not owned by WIN. It was a good show well produced and was on for years as well. I think it was produced out of Wollongong but dont quote me on that.

I remember seeing the show in the NSW TV Guides during the 90s so was probably also shown in Victoria.

wasn’t Good Sports made in Tasmania as a spin-off/re-brand of the former KTV?

Alive and Cooking was by far their most successful in-house production. It started as a replacement for Fresh Cooking with Australian Women’s Weekly during their spat with Nine, but ended up being picked up by Nine and enjoying over a decade in a daytime slot on Nine and all affiliates.
Fishing Australia is also a pretty successful production with runs on pay TV and I think Nine as well.

It was certainly originally made in Tasmania, before WIN took over Tas TV (those original series didn’t have much of a creator credit but did have a “for more info, send a letter to [our Hobart address]” tag right at the end).
I seem to recall WIN doing more of the segments in places like regional Victoria towards the end, but I don’t know whether they actually moved the actual compilation of the show from Hobart to Ballarat.

Goodsports was always produced by TasTV / WIN Hobart. The occasional segment was produced outside of Tasmania but was still fully produced at TVT6.

Peter Luck’s Bicentennial Minutes, that were broadcast through 1988

I only learned a few years ago that the Bicentennial Minutes was, of course, similar to an American series Bicentennial Minute (not plural) that ran in 1976 for that country’s bicentennial. The American version, which aired on CBS, took more the form of an “on this day” format.
