2 | * FanNickname: Knock-Off has been called "Knock-Out" and "Wipe-Off" in reference to ''[[Series/{{Wipeout1988}} Wipeout]]''. It's also been called "Rip-Off", which is probably the most accurate. |
3 | * HarsherInHindsight: One of the several spoofs done by ''Series/TheBennyHillShow'' of the original British ''Series/SaleOfTheCentury'' (itself pretty chintzy due to laws at the time) was a female-oriented version which used only male models and was overly obviously cheap. In other words, Creator/BennyHill pretty much predicted the American ''Temptation''. (Even weirder, both shows' rights are owned by Fremantle thanks to buyouts and mergers over the years.) |
4 | * SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: |
5 | ** Anyone who managed to win the top Shopping prize (usually a car), or took the $10,000 cash on the times it was offered. Neither was easy, even with Super Knock-Off. In the entire run of the show, [[spoiler:only five people accomplished this task. Three of them did so well, they racked up enough Temptation Dollars to win the car on their third day!]] |
6 | ** Mark Coyle, especially, who was called a "Shopping Ninja" by Morrealle. On his last day, Mark buzzed in first on ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxSktyU7DHg all 11 questions]]'' in the "either/or" Speed Round to get T$55...[[NegatedMomentOfAwesome and chose to keep it rather than spend his lead for Instant Cash; had he done so, he would've added another $5,000 to his haul!]] |
7 | * TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The format changes provoked this reaction from ''Sale of the Century'' fans. Most fans had been expecting either a continuation of the 1980s Sale and/or a good translation of the Aussie Temptation. |
