We all have to cross our fingers for the best of the T.V ratings which is in compeition inbetween the channel ten 'infamous' celebrity masterchefs, which channel would win this time? We dont know, mate.

But on my side of view, I believe Hey Hey its Saturday will nail it for sure as some of you know, that facebook group has already got 200,000+ fans and that doesnt stop there, I remember that the original masterchef got 3.7 million viewers to watch the grand final of the show, and I hope it would return the same thing to the show that is being returned to our screens for the first time in ten years.


Mick - Plucka will be back ;)

All I can do is hope, just hope that it hits the highs it once did.

Anything has to be better than Rove McManus, and the rove derivatives.

Darrel himself has admitted that the show with it's incumbents in their previous roles is a limited tinme deal only, beyond that I believe Channel 9 will resurrect the show based on viewer feedback. Essentially channel 9 has been having a very hard time lately and is looking to bring back the glory days of old, I for one would rather see Darrel Summers wearing a pair of concrete boots at the bottom of Bass Strait. As I imagine the bean counters at PBL will if things don't work out.

I believe it might have been affected since he hosted dancing with the stars back in the past, which wasn't good for his taste? I might be wrong though

The fact that it was so unprofessional and thrown together made it so funny.

Classic show, used to sit around with the family on saturday night and watch this. One of my favourite clips was with the producer of Razorback.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHSgV...eature=related.

Had me in tears.

Loved the show too - despite Darryl. Was compulsory viewing every saturday night for us.

Once dressed as Plucka at a dress up party - had a lot of fun that night. You get away with a lot dressed as Plucka.

Was it Steve Jacobs is the Plucka outfit? I forget....

ladies and gentlemen, the day has arrived, the show will be streaming live on our australian screens and the internet for the australians outside our country starting tonight. Drop everything and get some aussie chips and some good old beer and sit on your favourite couch then grab your remote and press NINE.

Make sure YOU watch it, or you're not a true blue aussie!

WATCH THE SHOW TONIGHT, 7.30PM TONIGHT ON CHANNEL NINE!

I think this will unfortunately fail. Just looked at the TV guide and it's up against Masterchef which is the highest rated show this year, then the premier of NCIS: los angeles at 8:30 and judging by the ratings NCIS gets this will also be very popular.

Wednesday was the worst day for this to be shown.

Well, we'll see about that tonight, yes?

I think for the most of everyone, will certainly record masterchef while watching hey hey reunion -- if you guys want to see them back on a regular basis, then we gotta support that, yeah??

Maybe we need to back it?

HHIS should win over 'reality TV' and US crime shows. With our support it will!
