Emisija Koja Ide na Televiziju Poneđeljkom oko 9 uveče (trans. Show That Goes on Television on Mondays Around 9 p.m.) also known as Booksovci was a sketch comedy that was broadcast on RTCG during 2004. The show is a work of The Books of Knjige a comedy group and alternative rock band from Cetinje. It had 10 episodes, everyone lasting up to 30 minutes. Surreal humor was used in this show. They were showing the montenegrin way of living in a comic way, sometimes pushing it too hard. The show was a big success in Montenegro and had a large audience. This show influenced Monty Python's Flying Circus and Top Lista Nadrealista.
Every episode would start with an elderly gentleman who would start talking non-sense things, combining things that could not be combined. He would start talking about something at first but he would finish with a completely different subject in the end.
After that, 2 or 3 sketches would follow him.
Like Monty Python, their sketches were a surreal and comic, sometimes sarcastic view of living in their country. In their sketches, they made fun of policemen, habits of montenegrin people, government, daily routine. Although some of their sketches look childish and look like a imitation of Monty Python's, all of them have a deep meaning.
