- The unofficial home of the TVNZ Goodnight Kiwi.
After working as the official mascot of TVNZ in the 80s and early 90s, the Goodnight Kiwi made a mysterious disappearance, never to return.
TV history documentaries revisit the kiwi's final movements to the transmission pod (as the kiwi did every evening), however no-one dared to dig deeper and find the kiwi.
TV historians believe the kiwi is making new footage and posting it on YouTube, but this is not confirmed.
Wherever you are Goodnight Kiwi, goodnight, and sleep tight!
Long may the kiwi and the cat live!

Small Plug from the Mods
Hi there!
Glad to hear you are all enjoying the group! I have a small request.
As many of you know (or don't know) Weird World of Sports is coming to a close. You may have seen some of the videos or submitted one yourself.
I am associated with "Team Cool" and their sport has made the final 6 which are being vote on now. We need your help!!!
Go to www.weirdworldofsports.co.nz, register and cast your vote for 'Human Gripball". You can vote once per day, and your vote can really help (unlike in Zimbabwean elections). Also if you spread the word that will help too.
To those that vote, THANKS A MILLION!!!
To those that don't vote, thanks for reading this anyway.

For those of you who love good ol' TVNZ programming...
Just saw this on throng.co.nz
------------------------------
Get ready for a blast from the past on 'Good Morning' next week, as they celebrate classic moments from several decades of New Zealand television!
On Monday, 'Good Morning' takes a look at New Zealand's continuing love affair with game shows. They'll test Dougal Stevenson's endurance as presenter of 'The Krypton Factor'. Phillip Leishman will remember "O for Awesome" moments from 'Wheel of Fortune' and his brother Mark will reminisce about the times when civic pride was on the upsurge in 'Top Town'.
The team will go on a 'Blind Date' with the show's presenter Dave Jamieson, and Jude Dobson will talk about her days as 'Sale of the Century's' glamour girl. Hilary Timmins will also be present, remembering the mother of them all, 'It's in the Bag', which ran for nearly 20 years.
On Tuesday revisit "classic moments" from New Zealand's heartland: Chloe from Wainuiomata will be reunited with the man who made her tiger slippers famous - Gary McCormick; Miss New Zealand 1962 will chat about her experience; magic moments from 'Billy T James', 'Country Calendar' and 'The Dog Show' will screen; and well-loved newsreaders from the past will making an appearance on the show, including Paul Holmes, who will be returning to TV ONE the following week with the new entertainment show 'Whatever Happened To…?'.
Wednesday is all about the music! Remember 'McDonalds Young Entertainers'? Well, they are all grown up now - 'Good Morning' will be chatting with Jason Gunn and the youngest member of the troupe, Holly. Robbie Rakete from 'RTR Countdown' will list his top 10 moments and Ray Columbus will take viewers back to the good old days.
It's nothing but drama on Thursday. Stars from the '80s favourite 'Gliding On' will be visiting, and cast from well-loved shows such as 'Gloss' and 'Shortland Street', will be reunited. Relive the colonial drama of 'The Governor' with star George Henare and go way back to the '70s with 'Close to Home'.
Friday takes a look at homegrown children's shows, bringing back Stu Dennison of 'Nice One Stu' and 'Spot On's' Danny Watson. The much-loved puppet of the '90s and Jason Gunn's best friend "Thingee" will be in to tell viewers what he's up to now, as well as former hosts of 'What Now', 'Play School' and 'Video Dispatch'3 Comments 814 days
