'Bring back It's a Knockout' -- the petition

The It's a Knockout fans on the petition below call on Channel 10 to broadcast repeats of It's a Knockout!

This petition was compiled by The It's a Knockout Web. You may join the several hundred signatories here, by signing the petition. Note that the petition is not automated and your entry may take several days to appear. Thank you to those who have already signed; you have hopefully helped in bringing back IAK. I think the writing is on the wall for Channel 10 (or on the website, at least).

Adapted repeats of Autralian It's a Knockout are currently being broadcast in Argentina (under the name 'Supermatch', on the Telefé network), where they are being received with great popularity and large ratings.

I love this TV show and really miss it lots and really want it back on again and my "friend" would watch it too. My children need the opportunity to experience the joy i did from viewing this great program. put it back on.

THIS SHOW WAS COOL! Please please please put it back on...even if it is only a summer time fill in show at 6am...I WILL WATCH IT!!!!!!!!!!

I believe that television stations programming decisions should ultimately be a reflection of the wishes of the audience base. It's a Knockout had a fantastic fan base while it was screening, and I believe that all Channels should consider placing it back on air.

Everyone loved this show, there's never been anything similar in the last 10 years to take its place - so put it back on!!!!

It's a knockout was my favourite show as a little kid. I'm only 16 now but if it came back on at about 7:00 on a Saturday i'd definitely watch it. I used to get up every Saturday to watch it at 6:00 am. If I woke up half an hour through it I got upset. We need more shows like this that encourage and promote fun, team play, enjoyment and exercise. Shows like It's a Knockout are so much more positive than the depressing, spiteful and immoral shows that are screened these days (eg. The Weakest Link, Temptation Island) If a new series was made, I would love to compete if possible. It's such a superb show so bring it on!! PS. I love the Sketch Show and bring back Full Frontal. A bit of comedy is just what television needs.

if 'its a knockout' were to come back on air the ratings for that station would be very high, everybody loved the show back in the 80's. 'Perfect Match' has now come back to the air waves and people are watching it, and loving it. Why not bring back 'It's a Knockout' and boost the ratings of the tv station.

How can a TV show that has not been broadcast for almost 10 years and is still being talked about not going to be popular? Especially with the quality of the current TV shows coming out. Especially reality TV. Everyone I know loves It's A Knockout and want to see it back. Surely it would do better than half those tele-movies that come on during the day so why not just put in on then? At least people will watch TV during the day then. Please put It's A Knockout back on TV.

Well, I remember this show from about ten years ago when it was aired here in the U.S. and my sister and I used to laugh ourselves sick every week when it came on. We thought it was the most hysterical thing we'd ever seen, and I STILL thing it is the best thing that ever aired...Unfortunately we only caught about 8 episodes before our network removed it. I have to say that those 8 hours were positively some of the most enjoyable times of my life, and I've had plenty of those. Our favorite was the steeplechase, especially when they would jump the obstacles and the horses would come apart in the middle. One time it slid down the ramp, all twisted and flailing around. Or there was the platform that would slowly raise up to 90-degree angle, and the teams had to hang on tight to the poles or end up sliding into the pool and getting soaking wet. One time the team was costumed as a band. I will never forget the 'piano player' hanging on for dear life with one arm and both legs clinging to the pole and his other arm wrapped around the giant foam piano. The rest of the band had long gone into the pool and were cheering him on. He eventually let go of the piano and managed to save himself. Absolutely brilliant. Whenever I'm feeling melancholy I think about IAK and it cheers me up. I wish they would show it here in the U.S. again. At least bring it back to Australian TV and I will fly there just to see it! Cheers!

I was only young when it was aired but i used to wake up early (the broadcasted time was early for my age) and my family absolutely loved it! We used to sit together and enjoy the antics of the show. It would be so cool to see it back on television, i really hope it does return, because im sure many people feel the same way. This is a brilliant way of winning some of 9's ratings!!!!

It's a knockout was a quality family television show and was part of the Australian cultural psyche. It encompassed the Australian "battler" spirit - deeply rooted in the Anzac traditions. No Australian "reality" television show has captured the spirit of the Australian people more so than "It's a Knockout". It should be brought back, or at the very least, there should be re-runs of the original series rebroadcasted on television.

Please rekindle the child in us all. It's a knockout represents an era in Australian television where families enjoyed fun viewing. Unique and entertaining, such programs have become rare as gold. If your aimed demographic truly is 16-40, the time has arrived to de-shelve this nugget.

i used to worship this show. it made my childhood memorable. and it depresses me that the youth of today are being deprived of such quality television and are forced to watch drivel like poke_z and dragon ballmon. (note the clever merging of 'pokemon' and 'dragon ball Z")

I used to watch "It's a knockout" all the time when i was a kid. now im 21yr old, 3rd yr nursing student and my friends and i still reminice about "its a knockout, thats the name of the game".I even part of the live audience. If re-runs are put back onto air, like they were a few years ago at 5am, i would get up and watch it. so, vote one its a knockout YAY.

I remember watching the show with my whole family as it provided entainment to all age group. You don't see nice, clean and funny family shows as much anymore and this one is in a league of it own. Reruns or a new series would encourage family viewing and I fill would be very popular.

Hello, I am 21 years old and i grew up watching It's a knockout. Never has there been a gameshow in my time with as much intensity and excitement. These days we are stuck with Burgo's Catch Phrase and Wheel of Fortune. Boring! If you want ratings, take my word for it and show It's a knockout re runs. PEOPLE WILL WATCH IT. Please do us all a favour and help bring a one of a kind television programme back to life.

Right now the 80's are coming back fiecely and with the re-broadcast of "perfect match", the reminiscing of the 80's is back. It's a knockout is a great show that the whole family could have fun watching together. I would certainly LOVE to see it again and realistically if it was reissued on DVD- the age group that used to watch this are now the cash-full single 20-30's who'd therefore BUY IT!! Bring back It's a KNOCKOUT!!!
Scott L

It's a knockout was a great show that provided the whole family with entertainment, whether you we were 6 or 40 you could get right behind it. Please bring this show back on as it was my favourite show for years and would love to watch it all over again.

Possibly the greatest show to grace the small screen and has been missing for far too long. Bringing back this fantastic game show would allow a new generation of audience to appreciate what we have known and to allow some people whom have grown up with the show a chance to compete in the pinnacle of sporting arena's. IT'S A KNOCKOUT!!

I was only 3 years old when Its a Knockout was first broadcast, and only in my early teens when the repeats were shown, but the shows sticks in my memory clear as a bell. There was something special about the show, it was a great mix of comedy, sport and action. My mates and I were all talking recently about shows we grew up with, and it was then we realised we all had and Its a Knockout obsession. If Channel 10 or any other TV station brought the show back (if they can do it with Perfect Match they can re-do anything!) or even screened repeats I would definitely be tuning in, along with lots of other people I know. I wouldn't care if they ran the show at 4 in the morning. Its a far more entertaining program than a lot of other rubbish on TV. My message to channel 10 is: Give the show another go, and monitor the amount of people who tune in. I think you will find a lot of people out there who will vote with their remote controllers!

You air some of the most putrid crap on television at the moment... "so called reality" television programs... countless makeovers for houses... and we must have been around the world 5 times already this year with all the holiday programs!!!
IAK was genuine family fun... wierd... wacky... clean... and good humoured! Bring it back and save us from the awful tripe that we've been putting up with for so long!
Better yet... MAKE ANOTHER SERIES!!!

Whatever happened to GAME shows? Quiz shows are turning into dull, tedious affairs, and reality TV went past its use-by date months ago. Surely it's time the entertainment wheel went full circle and got back to the basics of amusement - large plastic props!

I rememer watching Its a knockout as a kid and it was the only must watch show in my house that everyone could agree on and that included my parents.

They love it, I love it. My family loves it.
Please put it back on, or make some new ones, and you will get the large cult following there already is, plus more.

You have 168 hours a week in which to broadcast programs, and about 80 of those hours are pure garbage that 99% of the population don't dream of watching. Yet somehow, you have no interest in re-airing episodes of "It's a Knockout", a television show with a cult following, that could actually acquire some decent ratings, irrespective of what time of the day or night it's shown.
It's been 8 years since "It's A Knockout" has been on television. Please consider re-airing it.

There are so many game shows today, in a world of reality t.v, however these prove to only be successful for a limited amount of time.

Channel Ten: At the moment, you have Big Brother going on on Sunday nights at 7:30pm. Now, what will you show to fill the void when BB finishes?
Here's an idea: How about "the greatest game in town" and "the craziest fun around".....IT'S A KNOCKOUT, That's the name....IT'S A KNOCKOUT, That's the game....IT'S A KNOCKOUT, That's the name of the game!!!! Channel Ten, not only will you get the older fans, but we think...no, we know...no, we GUARANTEE all primary kids in Australia will be watching as well

In my younger days, staying up to watch It's A Knock Out! was an incredible experience! Not only did I get to see normal Australians competing in exhilirating sports-based activities, but it was the most entertaining show I'd come across. So when I found out that It's A Knock Out! was being re-run on weekends at 6am, I'd make it my duty to set my alarm & watch it EVERY WEEKEND! It's a Knock Out! is a brilliant show for people of all ages. It's fun, exciting, unpredictable & exhibits a sense of neighbourhood pride amongst the competitors!

I watched IAK religiously as a little child - staying up late every night it was on (past my bed time I might add!) because I absolutely loved the show.
To be able to re-visit those childhood memories (in either reruns or a whole new series) would be a very welcome addition to my staple TV diet.

It's a knockout was the most rockin show! I grew up watching it, and my sister and I used to get up in the wee small hours of the morning (about 5am i think... very early for kids of 3, 8 and 12!!) specifically to watch it... BRING IT BACK!!!

The show brings back many memories for me and all the people I have talked about it with in the past month. Replaying, and maybe even a new series, would be warmed to by many eastern staters. Maybe you could even give WA a go! Please consider this, it would be thoroughly enjoyed nationally.

It's a knockout was a huge show in the 80s and im pretty sure a huge rating would show if screenings of repeats. There are still many fans of IAK who loved the show and would watch it

I mean, there are other programmes that are being aired that dont even compare to ITS A KNOCKOUT. Its a fun mix of games for all ages i really miss it and i wish it could be brought back. Iam sure that the canadian audience will love it.

Whats wrong with the world today. I grew up watching It's a knockout, and have many fun memories of watching it. There were no action figures, or box office movies associated with the show, it was just good clean FUN! Now my daughter has a choice of watching Digimon or Angelina Ballerina, there is nothing in between that we can all sit down and watch together without me having to explain the sexual connatations, or violence that often underpins many TV shows these days. Bring Back Mork and Mindy, and Bring Back It's a Knockout. Why? Because they are just FUN. It might just help bring back a little humour and laughter to world.

It's A Knockout is one show from my childhood that I can remember clearly. That's because it was one of the funniest and best shows that has ever been on television. If it was brought back there is no doubt in my mind that it would be as popular as it was when it first started. It's by far the best game show ever invented and I would love to see it on the box again.
Brett

To whom it may concern, I was a big Fan of ' Its a Knockout '.
I ask that this program , be replayed on television here in Australia, because its better than some of those horrible American shows.
Its a Knockout was always a fun program , and always had smiles from my family watching it.
We hear so many bad things happening in this world at the moment, that wouldnt it be good to put on something light hearted and funny - maybe a Sunday night would be a good night.
I ask you really consider this application , and even try running it for a few weeks at least, to see what the viewers think.
Regards.

Please bring this show back. I loved it so much when I was a child. We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic. There should be more shows that promote physical activity in a fun and enjoyable context rather than the ardous and authoritarian way it is portrayed in weight loss shows. Physical activity can be fun and has more benefits than simply weight loss.

It's A Knockout!- That's the name of the game we would all like to see back on the air please.
Recently emailcash Australia (which advertises on Bright Ideas on TEN) contained a forum entitled "What tv shows should be back on tv" and despite having not been on television for almost ten years now It's A Knockout! was the most popular reply tabled by a wide variety of people.
Even if It's A Knockout! never comes back on TEN it's bound to come back sometime even if it's only on community television (for example Briz 31).
For the good of old-fashioned Aussie entertainment please bring back It's A Knockout!- That's the name of the game.
Brendan R

It's about time that Foxtel, Austar or Optus Vision started up a game show channel, so that we can watch "IAK" every day. And yes, it's also about time that Network 10 broadcast repeats of this show every weekday afternoon (in the 3:30pm timeslot maybe).
Daniel V
Perth, W.A.
'It's a Knockout' was a watershed in commercial television history. An entire generation of viewers has grown up with faint memories of IKN. It's time to introduce today's viewers to all the excitement that IKN provided us, as well as refresh our failing memories of the highs and lows of the television spectacle that it was.
Emily P
Perth, wa
come on........... its a cult hit. With the plethora of reality tv shows on at the moment we need a break from reality. And is it really any worse than Burgo's catch phrase or The Price is Right? btw what about WA as a team? Forgotten again?
Christian M

Listen whoever the hell has the rights to It's A Knockout. You have a duty to all Australians to repeat this show. In fact, you actually have a duty to make another series - but we shall start with the repeats. If there ever a television show that united drunken university students talking in a pub - it was IAK. Sure, Family Feud and Keynotes were good, but we are talking SERIOUS QUALITY in the form of IAK. Look at all the crap repeated on our screens - Frasier, Seinfield - all this rubbish. Goddamit I want gameshows. AUSTRALIAN GAMESHOWS!
I suggest an IAK revolution. I ask you all to unite as one and protest until we can't be bothered anymore.
Bring it back - for God's sake bring it back...

It would be awsome to see it again.

A lot of publicity will be given to this event and a lot of people would watch the old shows, especially as a lot of current members are children of the team members of that time.

Please do not lets the kids of today grow up without the thrill of watching It's a knockout. Their future is in your hands. Surely if you could keep Seinfeld on the air for so many years, you can get IAK back on air?!

Get your acts together. Bring the show back. Who cares about shitty Seinfield, The Simpsons, Everybody Loves Raymond etc repeats? Get with the programme for god sake. We want REAL entertainment not useless American comedy sitcom repeats.

It's a Knockout was and still is the best game show ever to be produced. When i was a youg lad i use to wake up early every saturday morning just to watch the show. At that time i was only aged 4 and when the show ended in 1993 i was very upset and could not believe that they could take such a great game show off the air. When i was young one of my main goals in life was to get onto the game show It's a Knockout as it looked so fun enjoyable and exciting. In saying this if it were to come back onto tv i would give it a prime time slot as it was so grand.

Please bring back 'It's A Knockout!'
Shows such as My Restaurant Rules that have brought back the state vs state rivarly have been extremely popular, as has Big Brother's Friday Night Games show this year, which is heavily influenced by IAK.
PLEASE bring it back!

I cant remember a better tv show, gladiator and the sorts were no comparison. I loved watching Big Brother Frriday Night Live, as these mini games were like the old tv show. BRING BACK IT'S A KNOCK OUT

Please bring It's A Knockout back! This show is without a doubt, the greatest fun that has ever graced Australian TVs. A cult classic, hilarious, a must-see...the memories of this all round good fun are not forgotten. I grew up watching this show and I was glued to it every episode without fail. It's A Knockout was the original and is still the best. At the very least, show us repeats of it please! C'mon Channel 10 - that's the name of the game!

Dear Sir/Madam, My name is David Tucker and I used to love watching its a knockout as a kid along with my brothers and sisters. I have a 10 year old sister as well and she has never seen the show, and she has missed out big time!!! Please bring repeats of the show back! I always wanted to be on the show as a kid, and seeing it on the tv again would be the next best thing. Theres not many family oriented shows on anymore, my family and I would sire be watching! Thanks for your time, David.

I watched its a knockout when i was so young and still remember it today because it was so much fun to watch... If the memories are so good now imagine if you bought it back, i think a lot of people will watch and definately want to be contestants

With TV nostalgia at an all time high, why not bring back repeats of classic shows in their entirity after midnight or early morning, instead of 2 second clips on best of specials. It is a fact that the Grundy's hold music is the It's A Knockout theme and TV shows are a large part of the DVD market and can only grow - Release It's A Knockout! on DVD or at the very least repeat a few on TV.

It was a favorite show of mine when I was a kid - In this modern day world of viloences and unrest in the world that is scaring kids all over the world, I would love this great show to come back and delight current day children now and for many years to come.

I am 21 years old and at every social gathering (which tends to be frequently) we remember old TV shows, "its a knockout" is always at the top of the list and without a doubt someone yells out "I wish that was still on" The show is fantastic and it would be great to see a new improved version!

I was not yet born when the series aired for the very first time, so I got stuck with watching the repeats that finished airing in 1993, I was 7 at the time. I remember getting up every Saturday morning at 6am (or whatever timeslot it was on, being 12 years ago, at the age of 7, my memory may be incorrect) to watch this great, humourous game show. Being from Canberra, and not liking NSW, I chose to support South Australia, as they wore my favourite colour, green. I have never had the chance to relive those memories, and even if it was broadcast at 2am in the morning (when there are endless repeats of other shows anyway), I will set my alarm clock and happily get out of bed to watch It's A Knockout! like I did in the past as a child.
