Non è la RAI was an Italian TV show, on air from 9 September 1991 to 30 June 1995. Initially broadcast by Canale 5, from January 1993 it was moved to Italia 1. It was presented by Enrica Bonaccorti in its first season, Paolo Bonolis in the second and Ambra Angiolini in the third and fourth.

Am Romanian who also caught the last years of the Ceausescu regime, can confirm that I also learned English mostly by watching undubbed Cartoon Network shows in the early ‘90s, my favorite was Top Cat (at least that’s how I think it was called). I also learned Italian by watching Berlusconi’s channels (“Non e la Rai” and “Mai dire goal” were among my favorite TV shows), and my gf learned a pretty good Spanish by watching telenovelas while she was a teenager. Living in a “small” culture kind of forces you to have to learn new languages, otherwise you risk remaining stuck (both economically and “culturally”, so to speak).
I’m still a little upset with myself that I wasn’t motivated enough to also learn Russian when I was a kid (I had already learned how to read its alphabet) and maybe also German. Now that I’m approaching my 40s this is definitely on my to do list, I want to have the chance to read the works of people like Heine or Pushkin in their original language.
