Nine has released its new schedule for GO!, its youth channel set to begin on August 9th.
With its mix of mostly US shows it will be a chance for television fans to soak up missing titles, or sample favourites they have only ever heard about.
Many of the US programmes such as Fringe, Gossip Girl, Moonlight, The Big Bang Theory, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Eleventh Hour begin from their pilot episode.
Additional titles that have not received any earlier press include TMZ at 11am / 7:30pm weeknights, and The ARIA Music Show to run from 1am – 7am daily.
With its 12 hour block programming, many evening titles will screen with a next day repeat, as per pay television models (alas prime time repeats in the day are from GO! not Nine).

Why do we need 3 eps of AFHV a week &, 4 eps of BBT on one night?. Why are the repeating the only season of Wipeout Australia again. There’s not gonna be a 2nd season!.
I’ve seen a preview of ‘Aliens in America’ & it’s really aweful & dull. A middle eastern kid stays with an american family & they aren’t sure how to socialise & act around him.
TMZ is worst than ET. Seinfeld was & still is the boring & creepy excuse of a comdey!.
I hope ch 99 isn’t gonna keep dig really old movies from their vault & replay them endless times!.
Both GG, Privileged & TSCC, have alraedy shown their 2 seasons on foxtel. Both TSCC & Privileged have been axed for months in the states.
I mostly like what I’m seeing. Will be watching Go! more than 9. Currently there’s not one show I regularly watch on 9 except some NRL which is only 1 live game a week.
how if this channel any different to what ten used to have? couple of new shows but most shows are the ones knowone watches!! whats the point in that?? sounds like crap to me!
That’ll be good – something to watch in the 6-7pm hour weeknights now that I’ve stopped watching Neighbours. And great that Tasmania is actually getting a channel for once!! Really it’s amazing that Nine could come up with something like this, the only bad thing is encore screenings of Dance your ass off – I don’t think they know the meaning of encore.
Not as good as I was expecting. Survivor is probably the only show i’ll end up watching, and that will be the Wednesday (day) repeat of it. TMZ…oh dear. Hopefully Chuck appears soon.
Seven’s second channel is rumoured to be a similar variety type channel to GO!. Hopefully it’s a little better than that.
For their evening lineup Nine need to also get these shows,that they
have the rights to :
1) Entourage. Why Nine let SBS get the free to air rights, is mystifying when it
would’ve been a good fit on GO. Nine originally stupidly onsold this to Foxtel,
when it would’ve been a good fit them at a 10.30 or 11 pm timeslot.
2) The Shield final season 7 (since Ten gave up on 10HD) via their Sony contract.
3) Smallville. Rescreen season 7 and continue with season 8 and its 9th and final season.
4) True Blood (from HBO). Another stupid decision to onsell it to Foxtel.
5) Damages season 2 and then 3.
6) Hung, the new HBO show and all new HBO shows.
7) Nip/Tuck. Nine were screening 2 year old eps on 9HD, then stopped when season 4 finished.
8) Sons of Anarchy, from F/X. Not unless Foxtel have got it.
9) Weeds, new episodes.
10) ER, season 14 and final season 15. I presume Nine intend screening
these in double episodes on their own network,in late November.
2 nights of CSI, 2 nights of trashy reality, sub-par sci-fi…..so…..Goooooo Bingoooo
For young people or young people without brains?
great schedule!! dont love all of it, but plenty of variety on offer, with more up their sleeve. will watch this more than their main channel…
And now for channel 7s offering.
nothing
What the heck time is 2500?
GO! looks to be pretty good for a digital-only channel.. I’m not very tempted by it (not really a big fan of most US shows these days) but it should go well for them. However, I reckon they could loose a good 3-4% of their main channel’s viewers to the new one, which wouldn’t be good considering their current ratings crisis. =/
Well at least the quality stuff is still on their main channel…
Love Seinfeld and can’t wait to see the end of Moonlight finally. Look forward to some new titles. It looks like it will become a nice new channel.
go nine!!
gotta love it!!
My god this is going to be a great channel just looking at this schedule. It’s better than Nine already.
Goody good sked… Can’t wait for my dose of Seinfeld. I wonder what happened to Flashpoint, Hotel Babylon, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, Secret Millionaire and other UK shows though.
David will Ch 90 be showing the content of Ch 99 or it will retain the schedule it has now?
Im liking what im seeing,
Will 9 put a digital guide on channel 91?
Can’t wait !!
ETA @Max – so I have 80 WIN HD programmed already, will I need to re-program it for SD? This is all confusing and I have a HDTV.
I like that line-up.
I honestly wonder how ET will match up against say the 7pm Project.
Good good.
Lots of good shows but nothing much new, either seen most of them through PayTV or the Internet, or just not interested.
Shame they are not doing an encore of the main SD, that could help the ratings for both channels.
So just over 2 weeks before the launch, will ch9 be promoting the shows on the main channel as ABC and SBS do?
I think, Australia’s Funniest Home Videos is going to turn into a TT or an ACA with a different time run, different host and different set and will battle in the 6-7pm timeslot with Seven News/TT on Seven, Nine News/ACA on neighbour Nine, The Simpsons/Neighbours on Ten.
Great to see that pretty much all of the main shows are starting again from the 1st or Pilot episodes…hopefully they wont play around with the schedule too much and that way let the series run out the way they were supposed to be.
I know it is way too early to speculate….but any idea if GO! will be subject to the ratings year? i.e S**t summer programming? How did TenHD work in that respect?
Major Changes to Nine’s GO!:
“The ARIA Music Show” is the new “Rage Top Fifty” –
“Australia’s Funniest Home Videos” Expand to Weeknights
Could it be? Nine are finally doing something smart? Wow! I am so impressed that this was created by the same people at Nine. Well Done.
Can’t wait for the Aria Show – it should be awesome. We need a channel that plays back-to-back music during the night.
I’m suprised by the AFHVS repeats though – seems a bit much. I would personally like to see the Fresh Prince on at that time (I know I’ve recommended that a lot), but seriously, Fresh Prince is targeted at teenagers, so what better channel than this GO!? Anyway, well done Nine and GO! on the rest of the line up. Good Luck!
@ michael ‘oz,
Good call.
