    This is for those who don't know: the reason why the Czech Republic is mentioned many times in Hollywood media is that it serves as a cost-effective location for shooting exteriors and interiors of other famous European landmarks and cities, such as Paris, for years.

    I think many English speaking people would find the Czech title of Breaking Bad funny, because it was introduced here as "Gingerbread Dad". The caveat is that Czech word for gingerbread, "perník", is a slang term for methamphetamine. It originates from WWII German brand name for meth Pervitin, which was used in the war by Third Reich soldiers.

I have yet to know any other tv show that seems to have such nice, educated knowledge of our culture and the dialogue about the czech topics was always so dignified, it really seemed to me like the writers like our country and actually know stuff about it.

    What they say about the hostel in Prague offering a cell in which Vaclav Have was held is actually true. The key thing, though, is that he was only held there short-term for interrogation before being either released or jailed/imprisoned. The building where he had been held, which btw has an amazing history itself, was repurposed into a hostel after the fall of the iron curtain. The hostel kept a couple former basement cell rooms to rent in mostly original condition and eventually evolved into a very nice and highly rated "Unitas Hotel". I happen to know all this cause I worked there for some years and I gotta say I sometimes kinda miss the eerie feeling I used to get thinking of all the stories that building could tell...

    Just a quick note - we didn't rename the country, Czech Republic is still its official name, Czechia is just a shorter version that was introduced way later. It's normal for countries to have two versions of their names, you wouldn't say 'The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland', you'd say the UK. You also wouldn't call Germany the Federal Republic of Germany, because it's too long.
    TL:DR - both the Czech Republic and Czechia are still the names of our country and you can refer to it as both! The one name that you SHOULDN'T use however is "Czech" since that is an adjective and not a name of a country xD

    The 420 is actually supposed to be 4:20 PM. This was the code used by some California high schoolers in the 70’s to set up a time to go to smoke pot. Over a period of time this spread throughout California, and the entire US of A then followed. When you say ‘four twenty’ you are usually talking about time but it could also be April 20 which is considered to be kind of a holiday for potheads.

      And the game show is set up so one member of the team (Martha Stewart, in this case) has the answers in front of them, and must describe them (without saying them) in such a way that the other team member (Snoop Dogg here) says the correct ones. Here all of the answers were marijuana-themed (weed, roach, 420). We can instead be impressed that Martha Stewart knows the country calling code for the Czech Republic (which is not beyond the realm of possibility). Within the context of the themed answers, "420" was really the only thing Snoop could have said in reply.

That's offensive to call them. The country's name is Czechia" and I had literally only been away from the Czech Republic for like a month. I was so confused 😅.

      My Grandma wouldn't like it cos it'd remind her Tschechei used by Germans during war, which is valid opinion- for her to dislike it but she wouldn't have right to push her own opinion on every Czech cos she wasn't narcissist and knew she can not speak for all Czechs but only for herself.
      how would you like it if I speak for all of Czechs and been talking about how we Czechs all think that anyone and any tourist who doesn't use Czechia has IQ of room temperature and any Czech who meet them will dislike them automatically just cos I personally think that reasons like "Czechia is similar to Chechnya so its wrong to use the name" are stupid and equally moronic like to demand Austria shouldn't be called Austria anymore cos its too similar to Australia?

So the fact that they faked Prague in Montreal when they could've had the real thing for quite cheap is unexpected and quite funny to me. 😆 Now I'm really curious to see what their recreation of Prague made in Montreal looked like 🙂

    Here in Brazil, Prague has actually shown up as a location in several telenovelas. The most notable is the 2001 novela "Um Anjo Caiu do Céu" ("An Angel Fell from Heaven"), where it's the location to the big events that act as the catalyst to the plot of the show. The main character is a photographer who's in town holding an exhibition of his photographs showcasing how much people suffered under the Nazi regime. After that exhibition, he ends up taking a picture of a Neo-Nazi terrorist leader in an intimate moment (mourning the loss of his wife) and that ends up getting him pursued by the terrorists, culminating in his car getting hijacked and exploding with him inside it. This, in turn, causes the angel from the title to swoop in and save the main character's life, and while the main character is in surgery, the angel comes to him and strikes up a deal to help him make amends with his family within six months.

It's understandable, though: different approaches for different audiences. Still (as someone who likes insider insights from other cultures/countries), I'm always interested about how natives of a certain country talk about national issues with each other (there's usual some degree of national pride that "dictates" you shouldn't point out national flaws to foreigners).

    It's kinda funny that Plzeň , the City Pilsener comes from, is in the Czech Republic and not in Germany, the country that is now most known for Pils. At least here in the Ruhr Valley, everyone drinks it, even though export is way better because it's less acidic and has more horse power.
    Czechs have the best dark beer though, and their beer-brewing culture is even better preserved than in Germany ( apart from Bavaria maybe. Sadly I only visited Prague, so it may be the same over there, in that it's mostly preserved for tourists).
    It's so striking to me, that this city has burned itself into my mind so much, that I recognize many places in the videos, despite having been there only once for a week, when I was in the 12th or 13th year of school.
    The best place to be, is behind the castle. There is a chasm with ruins, where you are shielded from views, it looks beautiful and for some reason almost noone goes there. There where also some narrow ways with hanging bridges, that where more slippy than the stones in front of the never ending stairs.

    Mission Impossible, xXx, Bourne Identity, Gray man ... that are the movies I can recall at the moment. I suppose some non-action movies were shot in Prague, but I do not watch them. Bourne identity used Prague only to mimic Switzerland, but those other movies mentioned Prague specifically. Even some of our actors were in the movies. What is always funny when you know the city is how geographically messed up the scenes are.

    Another one for the list. I believe in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike and Dru visited Prague off screen shortly before their appearance on the show. Apparently Dru was nearly killed there.

    I'd like to hear your thoughts on the name Bohemia. The term envokes a medieval connection for me like the castle and Karl's bridge does. Is it justs a geographical term for the western 2/3rds of the country or does it have more meaning?

    Czechia is a very useful short version. And seeing as you yourself said "he's a guy from Czech" (i.e., an adjective, similar to saying, "he's a guy from Slovak or from German), might be a time to get in the habit of using Czechia ;)

    I didn't know about this Big Bang Theory thing but in Greece Czech Republic is called "Τσεχία" and it literally translates to Czechia. Most school books, maps and tour guides written in Greek call this country "Czechia" and only a few mention the name "Τσεχική Δημοκρατία", which literally translates into "Czechian Democracy".

    Been to Prague a couple of times and love it. Watch you often, great informative stuff! Just wanted to say that most Americans think Colbert sucks. Once at a pub they muted the sound on the TV during his show and the patrons were ad-libbing what he was saying. Needless to say they were not very flattering to Cobert but were much funnier.

    They also mentioned it on Friends later on, in The One With the Red Sweater.
