"What madness, Catalan in Catalonia!"

Barcelona City Council has just published a survey on the restaurant sector, which highlights the dramatic situation of Catalan. Only 52.4% of bar and restaurant workers in Barcelona speak Catalan, the lowest percentage in the last decade. And the number of staff who do not understand Catalan reached 24%, three percentage points more than last year. The publication of these alarming results coincided with one of the musical sketches of the Poland, which started its twenty-first season the night before. In a cafe, one of the characters ordered a coffee with milk and, after the waiter's apparent diligence in taking the order, the version of theHallelujah by Leonard Cohen. The customer, amazed by the good disposition, sang gratefully: "I ordered a coffee with milk and you didn't tell me what would you wish for?" and all the clientele sang at once: "A place in Barna that is not for expats!" Taking advantage of that mirage, another ordered bread with tomato and ham because "I'm sick of Eggs Benedict." Another ordered two strawberry scoops for dessert. And after the heartfelt, heartfelt "Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah..."Here's the coffee with 'yel'. And the bread with tomato and a brush." offering tomato puree with a small cup to spread the paste on the sandwich. Instead of strawberry ice cream, he had a bottle of Kombutxa. "And I was so excited! They understand Catalan in Catalonia!" the customers simultaneously lament. The waiter, who seems to be the owner of the business, responds sarcastically: "What a mess! What a mess! Catalan in Catalonia!The sketch goes beyond drama and has a final twist that also references the ease with which we often switch to Spanish in many of these establishments. Poland to reflect the country's political and social reality and its rifts. Perhaps the first chapter was not very incisive considering the current situation. And the football sketches seem like doses of the Crackòvia to avoid political tensions.

The Poland It is an emblem of public television, and, at a time when we see the pressure on American comedians and their influence when it comes to analyzing reality at such a critical moment, we must hope that the political satire program remains timely, brave and biting. The entertainment programs that TV3 has premiered so far this season are insubstantial andIt's happening seems to have lost the journalistic eye. Let's see if the Poland, with the strength that comes from twenty-one seasons and the television institution it represents, is able to sustain a bit of audacity.
