    RTE confirm that a new decade of Reeling In The Years will start on April 11th.

    Covering 2010-2019.
    Always a good watch so interesting to see what they do. Plenty to cover.

    Bound to end with discovery of Covid-19 in Wuhan and then fade to credits.

    One of my guilty pleasures... I look forward to this.
    My teenage kids enjoy it too, particularly when I can tell them more about the events featured.

    They should play the entire series for history and music lessons in school.

    I wonder how will they end the 2019 episode!

    It`s obvious really. The 5 in a row for the Dublin footballers. Sure what else would it be?

    I don't fancy watching the 4 Mayo All Ireland losses.

    I'll be giving this a skip.

    Really excited about this until I realised that ten weeks later I will be waiting another ten years for the next installment! Not sure how to handle that.

    Probably going to get a bit of hate here. But I feel 2010-2019 is far too soon to be objective with reeling in the years.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    2000 to 2010 I believe was put together and broadcast in 2011 or 2012? I might be wrong?

    Jesus... I am now so old, I remember the same posts complaining in 2010/11 about that also.

    I think that covid will be alluded to by a guy going into the bathroom in the diner while we are all sitting down to our family meals with "Don't Stop Believing" playing in the background
    Then scene fades to black.
    End credits.

    Can't wait for the 2022 to 2029 series

    That's how they've done it and works fine.

    Later years seem strange but when you see the repeats from 2028 on they will be fine.

    My main gripe with Reeling In the Years is that it’s never off the bloody telly. Cheap filler for every bank holiday, or during the summer when RTEs news staff go on their holidays.

    One of my games is to try not to see or hear what year it is, and guess it. The 90s are no bother to me. When I started getting the 70s and earlier years in the 80s I realised I've just seen it too many times...

    I know it off by heart now . I know what coming next once I hear the song they are playing .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,477 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    I don't like the theme tune. Get's on my nerves for some reason.

    You are wrong .............again. The 2000-2009 series of RITY was originally broadcast on RTE from October to December 2010.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 597 ✭✭✭shane b


    +1 on this too. I know it's from a song of the same name as the programme which is good marketing but just dont like the song.

    What the original Steely Dan song or the RTE version?

    Think it's due a name and a theme tune change

    I remember watching the 2009 episode and seeing things from 11/12 months previously. Zero nostalgia and no objectivity.


    Although 2019 feels like 18 years ago already, so maybe it will work this time. :( :pac:

    Oof: I find it's the opposite with me. I've a pretty good head for dates I learned in history but ask me what were the big news stories from my early 20s, and I'm lost.

    I haven't looked at it in years but when I still watched Reeling in the Years I found the 60's episodes to be the best. The 90's ones were poor as being made in 2000 there's no historical perspective. Even the 80's episodes are now older than the years they were covering at the time. I found the 2000's series incredibly smug. In a world of 24 hour media where every news story is beaten into the ground I've no idea why anyone would want to relive it only a few years later.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,880 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Looking forward to this

    Don't worry if you miss the first airing it will no doubt be repeated many many times

    Virgins 'Don't Look back in anger' was good but its no reeling in the years


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29 Emptur.


    I could never stand it

    Guess it's not aimed at me then

    100%.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭its_steve116


    I would like them to play "I'm Feeling It (In the Air)" by Mark McCabe for the 2017 episode, to make up for them not playing "Maniac" on the 2000 episode.

    I'd also like to hear Fontaines DC, Villagers and James Vincent McMorrow on the show. Would LOVE to hear "Lawman" by Girl Band on the 2014 episode, it's got really cool riffs that sound like chainsaws. Unlikely they will though.

    2018 will be some episode, thinking back now that year is almost nothing compared to what were going through now


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,239 ✭✭✭Pussyhands


    They shouldn't make them so recent.

    I saw fidget spinners in one clip...eh what? That's hardly something worth including. Likewise the Theresa Mannion clip in Galway.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,239 ✭✭✭Pussyhands


    From May 2020-2021 will be rubbish when they make it.

    Which will not be until sometime in the 2030s assuming RTE are still around then.

    You'd be surprised when we see the 2010/2011/2012 episodes in terms of remembering things and songs

    The early 2000s episodes brought back a lot of stuff i forgot


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭its_steve116


    What songs would we all like to hear on the show? I think my choices (see post #32) are pretty good. I just hope they don't play it too safe. As I said I think that song by Girl Band would be a great choice for the 2014 edition.

    Siar na 70's/80's/90's is well worth a watch. More local angles and some unintentionally hilarious incidents and characters!

    Don't think the point is to highlight some niche enough music, has to be some of the most popular music from the decade in keeping with the other ones

    I kind of understand, but some of their music choices in past episodes have been terrible.

    If they don't play any of those X Factor singers I'm good with that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,239 ✭✭✭Pussyhands


    Gangnham Style will surely be in it.

    Ed Sheeran breaking through will also be in it I guess.

    They'll play whatever was the biggest song at the time.

    I'd imagine there's zero chance that any of the ones you've suggested will appear.

    I assume Ed Sheeran, One Direction and Adele will feature prominently.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,070 ✭✭✭OU812


    Looking forward to seeing this, but would love if rather than every decade, they could do an episode a year or even every five years.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,630 ✭✭✭its_steve116


    Here's the Mark McCabe song I was talking about; it was something of a comeback hit for him around 2017/2018. Since they didn't play "Maniac 2000" in the 2000 episode I think this song in the 2017 episode would compensate for that.

    It's essentially a remake of Nalin & Kane's "Beachball", but a good song nonetheless.

    I know from the promos that Hozier will be used on the show.

    The censored version of Horse Outside is unintentionally comedic.
