In traditional television, the Eurovision Song Contest broadcast, the Polish series M jak mi o , and the festival Sopocki Hit Kabaretowy - Id na ca o garnered the most viewers' attention. Among the top 10 programs were also the presidential debates broadcasts, held on May 9th and 12th. The most-watched TV stations were TVP1, Republika, and Polsat.
