Summary/Abstract: The paper examines the Polish television series Bolek and Lolek (1963 – 1986) and discusses its growth into an entertainment supersystem as defined in Marsha Kinder’s Playing with Power in Movies, Television, and Video Games. Modes of image circulation of the system are described as well as various modes of addressing the audience and expanding it to include various groups of older viewers. Special attention is paid to numerous toys and other objects produced within the system by the socialist state media industry but also by small private companies and individual fans.
