Still Game - S7E1 'Gadgets'

I wish they never brought this back! It doesn't come close to the original episodes unfortunately! Why does everyone look sunburnt also lol?
The actual theme song first Still Game is Frank Chacksfield's "Cuban Boy" from the 1960s. I think there was a right issue which meant the DVD version had different theme.
There is a documentary called Still Game: The Story So Far that aired on the BBC before Season 7. It is an interesting watch with behind the scenes stuff. 👍 I think the HD upgrade after the seven years has an impact on what people think of the later seasons too.
The main reason folk say the first run was better was because they were younger when they watched it and nostalgia kicks in, these later series are great and worth watching
Take no notice of the comments Mike and Jess.Theres good and not so good ones but the ending is 100% the best ending of any series ever.
Saying something like the ending is 100% the best ending of any series ever just sets a ridiculously high expectation and something they've warned people about before. It's great if that's your opinion and I'm sure there was no I'll intent on your part but I don't understand why people can't let Mike & Jess form their own opinions on things instead of trying build things up to ridiculous expectations because when you do something like that it can quite often spoil the viewing experience. People should really just comment on the reaction they've just watched not comment personal opinions on future episodes of shows. Just my opinion though

I pretty much know Still Game inside and out by this point, but that is the first time I noticed the jars of sweets behind Navid swap places and then swap back again (the scene with Winston and Walter in the shop).
It has its moments from here on in, but it definitely didn't hit the heights of series past. Only my opinion of course. There are plenty folk who loved it to the end.
i find it interesting how people say the 2nd era is bad, i guess its like music, an artist comes around, has a legendary few years, goes away for a long time, comes back and people say 'its just not the same' its odd really, i found the 2nd era every bit as good as the 1st era BUT everybody is different of course, for instance im in the camp of people of thoroughly enjoyed only fools coming back after it finished first time, maybe im just always happy to see characters i love so much back in my life and i just take whatever they give lol maybe thats it :D either way, its a fun ride!
I think one of the differences in Naveed’s shop is that the law came in that cigarettes have to be hidden behind covers in shops so it’s not as colourful behind him. Funny how it just seems normal now.
It was never nearly as good for me but that’s ok. We can’t all love everything.
'Jack yer willy' had us in bits when we watched this
That was brilliant then i finally watched your first reaction of it. How's your foot now Mike?
I'm glad you rewatched the one you'd accidentally watched before, so much better with context :) Are you skipping the Documentary "The Story so far"? I really really think you'd enjoy it for a lot of context and behind the scenes details including some great stories from the first era.
Did you notice the pub has changed from Jenny's back to The Clansman again?
I felt like it was never the same when it came back after the hiatus, It sounds stupid but the better definition etc sometimes ruins a show for me.
I'm the same
Great way to start my morning!
That's a wee 4 minute clip of a special Jack and Victor did for Children in Need (a charity in UK) They appeared with some of the cast of River City which is a soap opera based in Glasgow. They did that before they returned for S7 and fans really wanted them to come back. https://youtu.be/YC4xLY-rGKw?si=AHy7e45EznpqNIjs
That t-shirt 😂
First episode of the 2nd era! Let's goooooo friends! I'm excited to see what you think.
