Dear Ita Buttrose , please bring back #TheCheckout . So many shonks and scams that need to be exposed, and they did such a great job. A worthwhile investment in the public interest.
Humbled to ugly tears by everyone’s support for #thecheckout . I sincerely hope we can return to fearlessly defend your rights in increasingly silly costumes. There is so much more work to be done. abctv The Checkout x.com/checkouttv/sta…
It would be awfully embarrassing to cancel two of your most engaging, talent-nurturing, multi-platform appropriate television shows within a matter of months. #TheCheckout #Tonightly
Thanks v much to all for the lovely messages re #thecheckout . Consider myself very lucky to have worked with such a stellar team both in front & behind the camera on a show as rigorous and challenging as it was rewarding and fun. Hope to again one day. For now, #caveatemptor x
The Checkout Mind you, given the Grant Denyer precedent maybe #TheCheckout will win the Gold Logie next year.
We may not have won but Scott Cam called us “journalists” which is the greatest victory we could ever hope for #TVWeekLogies #TheCheckout
Cutting #thecheckout just shows the ABC Australia is succumbing to cuts that lower its effectiveness and contribute to ‘the dumbing down’ of the nation pursued by commercial channels.
Sorry #thecheckout has been axed, and not just because they employed me from time to time. It was deeply researched and highly informative, while also showcasing some of the best comedic talents on Australian TV. We haven't seen the last of them.
ABC Communications C'mon ABC Australia #thecheckout protects the public from scams. They are the fact check for consumer. Smart, informative and witty explanations of how to avoid being ripped it. We cannot afford to lose this show abctv
The Catch is a quick fire segment that highlights the revealing qualifiers some products put on their packaging. #TheCheckout tonight at 8pm.
The Checkout This show was informative to the consumer. Therefore the IPA must have hated it. I am not all that surprised that it's gone, but I am deeply saddened

Get it right! #TheCheckout hasn't been axed, it's just that 'the ABC has decided not to commission a seventh series' of it.
In other news, I'm not quitting the gym, I'm just failing to employ its services for another season. x.com/abcmediacomms/…

#TheCheckout on abctv has been cancelled due to #ABC budget cuts (and the relativity high cost of production). Some of the best brains in TV worked there. Thanks for all the consumer awareness and LOLS guys. The Checkout
Consumer law scholars from Australia and NZ say bring back The The Checkout to the ABC. Consumer protection not marketing manipulation. #thecheckout
