Polish broadcaster Polsat has commissioned a local-language remake of Servant of the People, the Ukrainian comedy that launched the political career of President Volodymyr Zelensky.

His ground roots party, called Servant of the People after the show, took off, and he was elected president of Ukraine in 2019 with an overwhelming majority.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February catapulted him onto the world stage, with many celebrating Zelensky, who posted defiant videos from the streets of the Ukraine capital,...

Warning: Trailer contains cartoon nudity!!! Jeż Jerzy, or George the Hedgehog, which I'll refer to from now on is a comic book from Polish creators Rafał Skarżycki and Tomasz Leśniak. In 2011 a animated movie was made that featured the titular character George the Hedgehog. George the Hedgehog tells a story where two neo-Nazis and a mad scientist create a clone of the character (George) in an attempt to defeat him. Sounds funky, eh? According to wikipedia, "The film's plot is a compilation of various stories from all of the Jeż Jerzy's comic albums except the newest (Jeż Jerzy: Musi umrzeć), which was published after the script was written." Sounds like an interesting comic book and judging by the trailer for the movie this is definitely rated R Cast Borys Szyc as George the Hedgehog Maria Peszek as Yola Sokół as Stefan Michał Koterski as Zenek Wojtek Wawszczyk as the clone...
