  • I Meant "Kerry Packer"!!!!

  • Oh and Go Cheers!!!

  • That Was The Most offensive thing I've ever seen when I saw the version to see what Kerry jacket was going on about, "It was truly Distastefully offensive".

  • A technical problem has prevented three people from liking this video.

  • 7 "parts" yet most of them are the same god damn thing and you don't show us any videos beside some dog humping another dog's leg. Are you retarded? Honestly. Why are the final 4 parts the exact same bloody thing?

  • BAHAHAHA... thanks for the post, good memories.

  • does anyone know what ep of cheers this was from?

  • go Cheers!

  • Of course you would have a technical problem with Kerry Packer yelling in your ear...get that shit off the air!

  • Cheers!

  • If only he could see 10 years into the future into the 21st century... Naughtiest Home Videos is *nothing* compared to the rubbish reality junk (*ahem* Big Brother *ahem*) that we saw and see today. Very tame by today's standards.

  • GET THIS SHIT ONTO YOUTUBE!!!

  • @sygo7g That would be The Paley Center for Media; they have the only complete episode of Turn-On.

  • Did anyone else come here from TV tropes?

  • @Dstorm20xx TvTropes I hail from.

  • @Dstorm20xx Me too

  • @Dstorm20xx and @BarbaricGentile Wikipedia I hail from.

  • @Dstorm20xx I came here after the video link from the Cracked.com article didn't work. barely any of their video links work.

  • Cheers was a more than adequate replacement :)

  • So thats what Technical difficulties mean...

    Calling the network and telling them to get that crap off the air.

  • "Technical difficulties" meaning "Kerry Packer" in Nine-ese.

  • No, the technical difficulties were the show itself.

  • "GET THIS SHIT OFF THE AIR"

  • @sonicfeet Yep, there's your technical problem right there. Though, if the show was as bad as all that how do you think Mr Packer would react?

  • @sonicfeet after watching a good few minutes of it, I can see why it needed to be. worst home video show ever.

  • @TheSlickAndroid Wouldnt it be turn on, it also ran half an episode in 1969.

  • @mariogamefreak1 sorry,I forgot to finish my sentence. i meant to say I can see why it needed to be canceled IMMEDIATELY.

  • does this remind anyone else how shitty, yet at the same time classically lovable our networks self promotions where?

    especially during their so called technical difficulties... so crappy, yet so lovable!

  • Overall though with it being a one off he could've let it go. Mind you it wouldn't have got the notoriety if it wasn't pulled and probably wouldn't have got it's encore screening back in August this year.

    Though some make it out as though it was going to be a series.

  • @IanGorton

    I agree, by pulling it halfway through, it gained infamy instead of just fadeing into obscurity like it most likely would have had it finished.

  • Rather intriguing that KP found this offensive yet he was a Kevin Bloody Wilson and 12th Man fan

  • today in english we were learning about media and stuff, we were learning about tv stations and the owners, and the teacher brung up this show during the discussion and told us about its cancelling

  • Was the famous quote mentioned?

  • yes

  • i mean, he diddnt say "get that s**t off air", he said, "you might of been familiar with the show that aired a couple of months ago called australias naughtiest home video's show, now that wasn't a new show just made, it actually aired in september 92 and was pulled live off air by kerry packer, he rung up and said "pull it off" because he was very offended by it"

  • I don't know what all the fuss was about. As far as naked breasts and bums goes you see them on the beach and as for animals mating. You see that in a David Attenborough nature film.

  • Apparently according to Wikipedia it was the network's owner who pulled the show of the air because he found it offensive.

  • wikipedias not a good source to get information from, it was kerry packer, he was at a dinner watcing this and then he rung up and said "get this S**t off air"

  • And that's not what he said?

  • he did say Get This S**t Off Air when he rung up to pull the show off the air.

  • I meant that what Tiswaser said is still correct - the network's owner was Kerry Packer and he did pull the show off the air as he found it offensive.

  • oh ok, i thought you meant another guy

  • I read somewhere not too long ago that the current owner of Nine found a full copy of the 90-minute special and is planning to re-air it eventually (without cutting it off after a third of the show airs).

  • Yeah I heard that on Steve Price's morning show last Thursday. Something that Peter Ford mentioned. It'll be on i a couple of weeks as I understand it.

    A told a mate of mine and he made the comment saying that Kerry would be turning in his grave. I wanna see it in full so I can see what all the fuss is about cuz I was only 12 back then and NBN didn't show it as I've since found out

  • It will be aired on Thursday week (28 Aug) at 8:30pm

  • Thanks for that. I'll make a note of that

  • Same here (as I was only 4 at the time)... my DVD recorder is at the ready! So ready, it will have quite a few viewers taping for posterity too...

  • As I did.

  • onya kerry.imagine having enough power to get a program pulled mid air

  • yea.. KP was good at pulling....

  • Obviously they say it was a technical problem. But when did the story break that it was KP giving the order? Cuz it would've been all over the press when it happened.

  • Has anyone got the entire 24 minutes?

  • I have the whole thing on VHS but the quality of the tape is poor and I was unable to convert to a digital file in it's entirity.

  • @autismgeek the entire video can be found on Google video. but I warn you,I only needed a few minutes,and I stopped watching. Its nothing but naked people(like a gut holding a barbell up with his dick,people and animals shitting themselves,animals humping other animals in people(I even saw a gorilla's penis),and the host making tasteless jokes(he started off the show with a joke about Rodney King going out for a pizza one night...) its no wonder it got canceled in its first episode. ugh...

  • I don't think we got any of this in Perth because of the dateline delay. But I remember a message across the bottom of the screen saying it wouldnt be shown.

  • So what did you get instead? Cheers repeats like the rest of the country?

  • Exactly right. It didn't go to air at all in Perth because of the time difference

  • I remember I was about six when they had all the promos and previews for "Australia's Naughtiest Home Videos"... there was a fair bit of hype about it too....

    Interesting story there "gemkilt"... were you the one Packer actually rang and told to "get that shit off the air"?

  • What a prudish prick Kerry Packer was to pull the plug on this show. To hell with his corpse and everyone else who worships political correctness!

  • agreed KP was a cunt to do something likethat.

  • gemkilt, cause you worked behind the scenes with all these tv shows, approx what % of programs in the "prime time" slots (that were filmed infront of audiences) were broadcast live? If you say that broadcasting live was hell, I cant imagine what cameramen for the cricket and other live sports events go through

  • good thing they got this show taken down

  • Get that shit off the air!

  • Packer got it right yanking this disgraceful smut straight off the air.

  • I was working at channel nine that nite as a tape operator wen we got an order by fone to take the current show off and go to cheers which was already on a 2nd machine in case sumthing went wrong and we had to go to cheers... Yup I can still remember it lol TAKE THAT FUCKING SHIT OFF NOW!!! Who is to argue with the man who owns the station haha That woz a long time ago :) A part of my career in TV

  • Did you get the sack?

  • No I got promoted to on air presentation co-ordinator (I put everything to air) Basically I was in charge of the station broadcast live to air :) Mr Packer was a good boss, he would give us xmas hampers every xmas and these hampers were huge!

  • I believe that no longer happens at Nine these days, right? And Bruce Gyngell was reluctant to follow Kerry Packer's order at first, right?

  • Saying take it off and your a tape operator can I assume it was pre recorded? If so you think they knew what the material was. But hey ammusing thought. Just wish I could've seen it. Wonder if NBN took it off air as well?

  • it was pre-recorded... so was Hey Hey its Saturday. They recorded that on a Friday night and it was put on a 2 hour reel of film and played bak on saturday. Very rarely was it live. Going Live with hey hey was a lot of work and a lot of stuff ups behind the cameras. It was hell and u couldnt stop to think if sumthing went wrong. U just had to deal with it asap! Television is very hard work and stressfull.

  • NBN didn't show it at all. It had scheduled something completely different that night.

  • Ah ok I'll take your word for that.

  • Well on a Monday Night back in 1992 it was probably a Knights game

  • It was a Thursday night.

  • I stand corrected.

  • Some of you don't remember the 1969 ABC (America) mega-flop Turn-On. Halfway through the broadcast, some stations decided to run alternate programming in its place before the network pulled it after its first (and only) episode.

  • "Three Cheers for Australia's Naughtiest Home Videos!"

    "Doug Mulray did a Crow Call!"

    And the jokes are endless. :-)

  • He pulled it off because it is base and tasteless and has no place on television. Good on him I reckon.

  • I think the clips are uproarious

    All those animals fucking and all..

  • So this is the infamous "Get that shit off the air!" video. Cool, thanks for posting!

  • They seem to make more of a fuss over programs of this nature today, but they don't do a bloody thing about it. As funny (and crude) as this clip was, at least Kerry Packer saw sense to pull the plug (albeit at the wrong moment perhaps)

  • Well, it depends. What time was this show shown at? If it was supposedly an 'Adults Only' show, I doubt very seriously it would've been on at like 3pm

  • Why couldn't Channel Nine move the program to a much later timeslot instead of "pulling this shit off air"?

  • It probably was though.
