Going through some episodes now on youtube, does bring back memories. There was another show in the late 80s called &amp;quot;Bliżej świata&amp;quot; (English: &amp;quot;Closer to the World&amp;quot;), which would run for an hour or so on a Sunday night and show snippets from western tv shows. The contrast to the (usually) very bleak communist Polish TV, was striking. 
For me, back then, watching both of these shows felt like looking through a window into a different world.</text></comment>
