Good Morning!!! (with three exclamation marks) was a TEN Channel 10 (now part of Network Ten) Australian television variety program, seen in New South Wales and hosted by Rosemary Eather, with news, animal and trivia segments by Warwick Rankin. It was one of Australian television's first forays into the concept of weekday breakfast variety programming for children. It ran five days a week (Monday to Friday from 7am) and was a popular forerunner of the Nine Network's later Super Flying Fun Show.

The show featured a mix of cartoons, serials, music clips, news, pet information, competitions and entertainment. During school holidays, groups of children joined Rosemary in the studio for a range of activities. The show created much controversy when Sue Smith (television presenter), filling in for the regular host, was given the full time position of hostess while Rosemary Eather was on vacation.

In 1969, Good Morning!!! was renamed Breakfast-a-Go-Go, making it a Sydney version of Fredd Bear's Breakfast-A-Go-Go on sister station, ATV Channel 0, in Melbourne. Sue Smith was joined by a new comedic sidekick, Witless Wonder (actor Ron Blanchard), replacing Warwick Rankin when he moved to his own children's show, Commander Strongarm.
