Running for six seasons from 2002 to 2007, ''[[Still Game]]'' began as a stage play starring Kiernan, Hemphill and Gavin Mitchell (who would later be replaced by Paul Riley; all four would have major roles in the television adaptation) before the characters appeared in comedy sketch series ''[[Chewin the Fat]]'' (again starring Kiernan and Hemphill). When ''[[Chewin the Fat]]'' came to an end in 2002, ''[[Still Game]]'' was given the go-ahead for its own series.
