Television in Poland has a rich history, beginning in the late 1950s. The first broadcasts were state-controlled, with TVP (Telewizja Polska) as the main broadcaster. Over the years, the television landscape expanded, introducing private channels in the 1990s, which diversified programming and increased competition. Today, Poland has a mix of public and private television channels, offering a variety of content, including news, entertainment, and sports. Digital broadcasting has also become prevalent, with many households accessing channels through DVB-T and satellite services, reflecting the country's adaptation to modern viewing habits.
