The sitcom classic nobody's talking about
In execution Still Game is a thing of beauty, boasting elegant, well-honed writing and performances to cherish. Broad? Yes, it can be. Crude? At times, certainly. But it's all so nimbly done.

Glasgow Evening Times, 16th September 2008Nude awakening
Still Game is a sort of Last of the Summer Scotch. Old men are bouncing back to childhood with some brio, dedicated to the great cause of cheering themselves up.
Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 23rd July 2005All aboard the Craiglang Express

Cameron Borland, Off The Telly, 7th May 2004Still Game Review
Still Game received a much more low-key launch, which is a great shame as it is a corker of a sitcom, with Jack and Victor emerging as wonderful characters.
