Check it Out! is a Canadian television sitcom that aired on CTV from September 1985 to April 1988. The series also aired in the United States in syndication and on the USA Network.[1]
Based on the British series Tripper's Day, Check It Out! was set in a fictional supermarket called Cobb's, located in Brampton, Ontario and stars Don Adams as manager Howard Bannister. The cast also included Dinah Christie, Henry Beckman, Gordon Clapp, Barbara Hamilton, Elizabeth Hanna, Kathleen Laskey, Jeff Pustil, Simon Reynolds, Aaron Schwartz and Tonya Williams. The series was taped in front of a studio audience at CFTO-TV in Toronto.
In 2008, four episodes of the series were featured on WGN America's "Outta Sight Retro Night" programming block. As of 2013, the program is seen on Comedy Gold in Canada daily. In 2023, the show is available to watch on Tubi and Pluto TV for free. The series is also available on Peacock.
In Latin America the show was called Supermercado 99 ("Supermarket 99"), a reference to Barbara Feldon's character in Get Smart, [2] while in Italy, the show was called Il supermercato più pazzo del mondo ("The craziest supermarket in the world").
In Sweden, comical duo Stefan & Krister star in Full Frys, a TV series largely based on Check it Out! and Tripper's Day.
