Comments and Reviews


23skidoo 28th Aug 2021		Apparently this show was massively syndicated worldwide during its run. Just for fun I was checking out out what TV show was airing on local TV at the time I was born in 1969 in Saskatoon, Canada (we only had one channel at the time) - and it was this show. But by the time I was old enough to actually watch TV, it had vanished from my neck of the woods.



Appletree1 SUBS 29th May 2020		Kangaroos are extremely "thick" animals and the had a hell of a job getting the various "beasts" to do what they wanted them to do! No Kangaroo would ever behave like the ones in the show!



Neil Forbes 29th Sep 2015		@Zabadak, you cruel beast! Poor little Skippy is shaking like a leaf at the thought of ending up on your dinner plate! Ha-ha!



Record Collector 29th Sep 2015		I'll "skip" that



zabadak 29th Sep 2015		Kangaroo meat is getting popular here in the Yook - just sayin'... :erk:



Neil Forbes 25th Sep 2015		One day, Sonny Hammond was in Sydney, with Skippy coming along for the ride, of course. It was around lunch time and Sonny, feeling a bit peckish, visited an Asian restaurant. Ordering a plate of food he'd have some and feed some to Skippy.... but poor old Skippy's digestive system couldn't handle it and she was throwing up in the gutter out front of the restaurant. A passing stranger sees this and asks what was wrong with her, to which Sonny replied... wait for it.... "Thai's got my kangaroo down, sport!" Ha-ha!



Record Collector 25th Sep 2015		Sadly these days Rangers HQ has gone into neglect



Neil Forbes 25th Sep 2015		Tsk.... tsk... tsk...tsk...tsk...tsk...tsk... What's that, Skip? You're trying to live the quiet life in retirement and reference to your starring role keeps popping up on 45Worlds? And you're hoppin' mad about it? Can't blame ya!



Neil Forbes 21st Jul 2015		I don't remember him in Prisoner, RC. NBN stopped showing the series because of the "brain-fart" called regional TV market aggregation and NRTV never got to his episodes because they were several episodes ahead of Sydney but decided suddenly to show the episodes that TEN-Sydney were screening, a backward-jump of nearly two years-worth of episodes. I gave up watching when they did that.



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		Tony bonner later appeared in prisoner as a social worker



Neil Forbes 21st Jul 2015		@RC: ".... there are two different macs" Just as long as one of them ain't a "Big Mac" *Bleeeuuuugggghhhh!*



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		Trying not to get off the subject Neil there are two different macs



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		Port Macquarie doesn't reconise that one



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		As in McCartney ahh you see my keypad knows haha



Neil Forbes 21st Jul 2015		If Terrey Hills was unable to meet Bonney Hills, is that because there was a mountain(or two) between them? Ha-ha For those outside Australia, Terrey Hills is an outer-northern suburb of Sydney NSW while Bonney Hills is a town just south of Port MacQuarie.(deliberately spelled with an upper-case Q as names starting with Mc or Mac should always have an uppercase letter following the 'c' = McX, MacX - X is the variant.)



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		Filmed around the hawksberry and terry hills area



Neil Forbes 21st Jul 2015		Yeah, RC, and the kangaroo is really ticked off about it... What's that Skip? You're hoppin' mad? Don't blame ya!



Record Collector 21st Jul 2015		Sadly the original HQ is left rundown
