Behind the Scenes
• | Still Standing ranked 19th in the ratings for its first year but fell to 93rd for its fourth. The series was cancelled due to low viewership (an average of seven million). |
• | In the final episode, as Bill and Judy move Brian’s dresser, they comment that it hasn’t been moved in 15 years. However in the first episode, Brian has a different dresser. |
• | All 88 episodes begin with the word “still” in the title. |
One of the funniest shows ever! Every character was hilarious
Best tv show ever! Great cast! Can’t believe it ever got cancelled. To bad we don’t have shows like this now. We could use a laugh these days! Should sell the series to public!
I wish there was repeats in 2017 now . I miss the show that i use to watch when i was a kid.
You can watch it on youtube. All 4 seasons. I just finished watching it all 🙂
New episodes of “Still Standing” every Tuesday on CBC.
New show by the same name: documentary/comedy on Canadian small towns.
Still standing was one of my favorite shows ever. Jamie was the bomb. The whole cast was perfect for that premise. I felt so bad when jamie showed up onthat stupid alien show. But it was great to see her on modern family for an episode. Miss you jamie.
It was as awesome and amazing show. Every episode from beginning to end kept me laughing. The should never have canceled it.
Enjoyed every bit of your article.Much thanks again. Keep writing.
