An ABC3 channel appeared on television receivers in 2008, as a placeholder for the future ABC3 channel. ABC3 was considered by the Australia 2020 Summit and given as one of the recommendations to the Government. In April 2009, the Government's official response to the Summit approved the idea, and in the 2009–10 Commonwealth Budget $67 million was allocated towards ABC3 as part of the Government's $167 million funding increase to the ABC. On 18 June 2009, the Corporation began its first public ABC3 campaign – called "(MeOn3 )" – to scout for new hosting talent. On 22 October 2009, 8 presenters were announced. Amberley Lobo and Kayne Tremills would host ''Studio 3'', with Ben Crawley as a roving reporter, he later joined the show What Do You Know? alongside Dr Rhythm. Scott Tweedie would host ''Prank Patrol'', while Hannah Wang and Mitch Tomlinson were named as co-hosts of ''Rush TV'' and Stephanie Bendixsen and Steven O'Donnell were hosts of ''Good Game: Spawn Point'' a spin-off of the TV series ''Good Game'', made for younger gamers, which shows every Tuesday on ABC2. On 4 December 2009 at 5pm, the hour-long ''Countdown to 3'' special, the official on-screen launch of ABC3, was broadcast on the channel and was simulcast on ABC1 and ABC HD until. It featured special performances from Australian artists Cassie Davis and Short Stack, an introduction to various ABC3 presenters and shows - including CJ the DJ and Dance Academy - and the station's launch around 6pm by then-Prime Minister of Australia, Kevin Rudd.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 )〕 In 2011, James Elmer joined as co-host of ''Studio 3'' along with Kayne and Amberley.
