Dad, Charly said ...

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Papa, Charly said ... is a German radio play series based on a concept by Ingrid Hessedenz and Klaus Emmerich with around 600 episodes. She was inspired by Eoplauen's cartoon series Father and Son .

action

The radio play series was about speech duels between father and son, in which the father was confronted with all possible and impossible contemporary questions (on topics such as homosexuality, pop music, the pill, xenophobia, etc.) and the son was ultimately always for these duels decided. The dialogues usually began with the sentence "Dad, Charly said, his father said ...". The third production season also followed this pattern, but the dialogue takes place in the next generation. The former son is now a father himself and is in turn exposed to questions from a curious son.

The third production series with approx. 260 episodes was produced between 1990 and 1995 at Saarländischer Rundfunk .
