“Cabaret Live” debuted on the air in 2016 and for the next nearly 7 years it gained a loyal audience who gathered in front of their TV sets. Just before the parliamentary elections that took place on October 15, 2023, the station decided to remove all archive sketches from the series from its websites and also postponed the broadcast of the new episode.
Polsat suspended the broadcast of “Young and Moral”. Satirists have no illusions about the reasons for this decision
Polsat’s decision to suspend new episodes for the duration of the elections was influenced by skits, most of which exposed the hypocrisy of political parties in Poland. – Our decision is related to the fact that we do not want our programs to be used by any entity of political dispute in the current election campaign – explained Tomasz Matwiejczuk, director of corporate communications at Polsat, in an interview. As announced, the show was to return to the air a week later, on October 22, 2023, but instead of another dose of humor, viewers saw a full-length film from the 1990s.
Not only the viewers were outraged by the sudden change, but also the satirists who, despite the unclear situation, still regularly appear in the studio to record subsequent episodes. As the spokeswoman for Kabaret Młodych Panów, Olga Polny, said in an interview with K, Polsat has not provided any information regarding the fate of the series for over three weeks. – There has been no meeting with Polsat so far – she said. – We do not know the reason for the lack of broadcasting of the “Młodzi i Moralni” program, but we can assume that it is related to political games – she added.
Was the broadcast suspended because of the drop in viewership? The Young Gentlemen Cabaret has found a solution to this
Hopes for the return of “Cabaret Live” to the air seem to be in vain. So far, the series was included in the TV program on subsequent Sundays, but now during broadcast hours it has been replaced by subsequent parts of the “Men in Black” series. The official reason for this decision is apparently . Indeed, the autumn episodes were watched by 400,000 people. fewer viewers than in the same period of 2022, but despite this, the skits still have a loyal audience of over 1.3 million people.
Satirists, however, do not give up. The beginning of a new episode, which was recorded for broadcast on Polsat, as well as an invitation to the last recordings scheduled for November 7 and 9, appeared on the Instagram profile of Kabaret Młodych Panów.
It is not known whether this will be the only form of publishing new content. However, viewers hope that they will soon be able to watch the sketches in full, which they expressed in numerous comments. There were also bitter words criticizing Polsat for its decision and the lack of appropriate explanations in the matter.
Where can you watch? We miss you very much
Nope, there are skits and you can’t watch them. Worse than during communism. I’m waiting for normality to return
Even if it’s on Polsat, I won’t watch it, give me an alternative.
