In Blinkende Lygter (Flickering Lights) (2000) dir: Anders Thomas Jensen, there is a running joke about the Danish TV series Matador which occupied 24 episodes of greatly varying lengths from 1978 to 1984 and is by far the most popular Danish TV program ever. We only see two shorts clips of it onscreen, but many scenes show some or all of the four main characters watching it or arguing about it. Finally, the gang leader, who had watched it twelve times (or so he says) throws the television set out of the window. Curiously, the TV series is referred to as "Rich Man, Poor Man" in the movie. Apparently Swedish TV butchered it by re-cutting the 24 episodes into 36 of identical lengths. What have you got to say for yourself, teleadmin? Have you seen it?
