WielkiPolak: You see it a lot in television in Poland as well, a lot of the programs are just bought from other countries That's all around the world. It's safer to buy a license for already famous programme as you don't have to worry about promotion.

I know but it seems as if in Poland you get an awful lot of it. Why is it safer? You have to pay for the right to have it. Why not think of your own stuff?

What are Catholic values, WP? You see, if you are to separate one group from another then that separation has to have some meaning. For example, what values does a Catholic Pole share with a Catholic Spaniard? To what extent is their religious conviction meaningful? Be careful not to transcend into the realms of spiritualism as this is a religious question.

It is not just the fact that they have their own versions of dancing with the stars, dancing on ice, moment of truth etc it is that they make their own Polish versions of television programs from Britain or America such as 'Alo Alo' or 'Don Matteo' and others. It is one thing to show a foreign TV show on Polish television and even to buy foreign gameshows but when you copy a TV program to make your own version with pretty much the same characters I think it just takes the ****.

Des Essientes:

I am a Polish-American and I think Poles are too eager to be like Western Europeans. I think Poles should revive Sarmatism and start wearing turbans, jewels and silks again and be aloof and dismissive towards Westerners. If Poles were to do this then Poland would immediately become a famous country once again. All over the world hipsters would love Poland. Poland needs to get its style back.

I'm with you wholeheartedly on this one. I've just dusted my silks and jewels and I'm taking to wearing a turban starting tomorrow. Will a towel do or should I look for something more classy?

Des Essientes: . I think Poles should revive Sarmatism and start wearing turbans, jewels and silks Even in the day, 99.999% of them didn't get so much as a sniff at jewels or silk.
