Reeling In The Noughties

WindSock

Seeing as Reeling in the Years stopped at 1999, I thought it would be good if we did our memories from the last decade onto individual threads. I am going to post a thread of the year in chronological order and leave each one open, so it can continue being added to.

Post whatever you like that is relevant to the year both in Ireland and internationally. Music, events, politics, etc

Reeling In The 2000s (Two Thousands)

I just hope that the Tenesses does take off, its simple the Tens or 10s and when we reach the teens its can be called either the teens or the tens.

Where's 2009 ?

WindSock

2009 on its way next week. Just dragging it out a bit

The Davestator

RTE have announced their Autumn schedule and it includes reeling in the years - the noughties!
Cant wait to see it.

Yeh saw that too...I heard the makers on the radio last year and I was almost sure that they said it wouldn't be out for a few years yet. Definitely looking forward to it

cant wait to see it. watching 1999 with all the firworks displays around the world and fatboy slim's 'right here right now' as the musical score still sends a shiver down my back

CANNOT WAIT for this to start- it's the first decade that I can remember right from the start. I can recall the nineties events, but the early stuff, like Italia 90 is a bit hazy. Eek!

I bet this series will start out good and end up crap.

Y'know reeling in the years is probably the best thing rte has ever produced.
It has international appeal and it stands up to repeated viewing.
I can't think of a better programme on rte...ever...can you?

YOU'RE WRONG.
What about other quality programmes like Glenroe, Fair City, Raw, The Late Late Show, The Restaurant, Mattie, The All Ireland Talent Show... okay, maybe you were right after all, oops.

Sorry forgot about Killinaskully too, ok SECOND best rte production ever.

RTE- quality programming at it's best. It's a wonder Reeling in the Years even gets a look in!

The Restaurant

I think The Restaurant is one of RTÉ's better formats. <<< also not sarcastic I do enjoy that show, how is Rachel Allen more popular than 2 fat Irish blokes complaining <<<< can't help the sarcastic remarks, I do like the show.

It has international appeal and it stands up to repeated viewing.

Actually it is often very inward looking Ireland's Greatest and Worst but intermixed with quality Irish Tunes with a few International stories and tunes thrown in.

But yes it is a good programme, nostalgia works.

For me without being negative/sarcastic Paths To Freedom is also quality.

I feel old!! 2000 seems a long time ago after watching RITY tonight!:eek:
