    I really think 17 summers in a row is too long to be repeating the same program.

    It's great to dip in now and then and watch it. They should however make new episodes.

    No not al all. Its one of the best shows on RTE, and only last night did I see an episode that I had not seen before.
    They should make more episodes and as I said, a great show !!

    A good show, but repeated to death. I remember The Rock and Roll Years on the BBC years ago. Surprisingly they haven't made a new series in years. RTE copied the format many years later.

    It's a cheap and simple (and copied) format that allows them to make use of their archives. Probably gets too big a billing, though.

    Reeling in the years is better

    They certainly got value for money when they commissioned that show.

    TV was only invented in Ireland in 1962.

    It's over staying it's welcome & this stage. Typical RTE, they're so stuck for something to show that everything is a repeat now 😣

    Just because it is running a long time you want it axed?

    I mean they only did the 2000s when it reached 2010. They'll do the 2010s when it reaches 2020.

    Well it's either this or RTE reverting back to continuous reruns of Keeping up appearances....

    Bores me to tears, and I have zero interest in this type of program.

    That said, I've no idea why anyone would want it axed when there are about twenty other channels to choose from if you don't want to watch it.

    Other people are enjoying it and reruns cost nothing to produce, so why take it off the air?

    Can you not see that people still enjoy it? RTE cannot win with some people. If they canned it you'd probably complain too.
