The Lousy World[1][a] is a Polish television sitcom that premiered on 16 March 1999 on Polsat.

The show follows the life of a dysfunctional Polish family from Wrocław.

Most episodes are centered on Ferdynand Kiepski, the family's patriarch, who schemes to improve his financial or life situation, but in most cases ultimately fails.

In June 2022, Polsat announced the end of production of the show.

[2][3] Neatorama's Miss Cellania critiqued the show saying "You can tell by the picture that this production strayed a bit from the original formula instead of trying to clone the American sitcom.
