Live from Abu Dhabi Connect the World takes you on a journey across continents, investigating the stories that are changing our world.
Has a show from your country become a global hit?
Since television was first brought into our homes in the 1930s, shows have brought us moments to cry about, moments to be joyous about and even moments to despise.
Audiences have been watching everything from comedies, dramas, reality shows, news programs... the list goes on.
In the early days, audiences were mesmerized by the black and white edition of "Leave it to Beaver," fell in love with "The Cosby's" and became addicted to "Friends" and "Seinfeld."
The United States has truly been the leader in providing hit shows to the rest of the world over the course of the last half century.
And while America may be known as the home to modern-day television programming, many other countries have provided us with some memorable moments.
Countries like Canada, the United Kingdom and even Australia have all exported television shows that many audience members would consider national treasures.
Canadians probably all still love "Degrassi High," Australians cherish "Neighbours," and the Brits still watch "Doctor Who."
We want to know what you think.
Is there a television show from your country that you feel is a 'national treasure'? Has a show from your country become a global success?

I would call "I Love Lucy" a "national treasure". 50+ yrs after its debut, it never stops being funny. It's just a classic show. Other classics have been: The Cosby Show, Friends (*grumble*), The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Bonanza, The Ed Sullivan Show, etc. Also, serials (or soaps) like Guiding Light, As The World Turns, General Hospital helped change the TV landscape.
Most recently, shows like ER, Glee, Grey's Anatomy & even the Law & Order franchise have made a mark on television worldwide, for different reasons: diversity, longevity, tackling taboo topics, launching other shows, etc.
Just my two cents...

The US keeps injecting content abroad but not because of its high quality, just because of the huge power of its media networks.
