Basmat Watan (Arabic: بس مات وطن) is a political-satire and slapstick Lebanese television program that is aired by the Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation, a privately owned television station in Lebanon. The show was created by Charbel Khalil, with the first episode airing in 1995. The title of the program is a pun, as in Lebanese Arabic the title can either refer to either the "death" or "smiles" of a nation.[1] Basmat Watan is the longest-running political satire program in Lebanon.[2]
