Basmat Watan is a political satire and slapstick programme that airs via the Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation, a privately owned television station in Lebanon. The writer of the show, Charbel Khalil, began work on the program in 1995 and in 2007 was leading its timeslot with 26 percent of the audience. The title of the programme is a pun, as in Lebanese Arabic the title can either refer to either "death" or "smiles" of a nation. Basmat Watan is the longest-running political satire program in Lebanon.
