                                    Exhibit A

                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
                                     BETWEEN
                               DONALD MILLER-JONES
                            AND @ ENTERTAINMENT, INC.

      This Stock Option Agreement ("Option Agreement") is made effective as of
June 8, 1998 (the "Effective Date"), by and between Donald Miller-Jones
("Miller-Jones") and @Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), pursuant to the @Entertainment, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan, as
amended (the "Plan").

      1. Grant of Option and Option Period.

            a. The Company hereby grants Miller-Jones an option (the "Option")
to purchase Two Hundred Thousand shares (200,000) (the "Shares") of the
Company's common stock ("Common Stock"), with a par value of $0.01 per share,
pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Option Agreement. The
exercise price for the Option (the "Exercise Price") shall be Fourteen Dollars
and Thirty Cents (U.S. $14.30) per share.

            b. The option to purchase Sixty-six Thousand Six Hundred Sixty-seven
(66,667) of these Shares will vest each year on the anniversary date of the
Effective Date beginning with the first anniversary of the Effective Date,
provided, however, that (i) the Option shall vest in full immediately (A) on the
date of change in control of the Company (for purposes of this clause, the term
"change in control" shall have the same meaning, except with respect to the
Company rather than Poland Communications, Inc. ("PCI") as that term has in the
Indenture dated as of October 31, 1996, between PCI and State Street Bank and
Trust Company as trustee with respect to those certain 9 7/8% Senior Notes of
the Company due 2003 (the "Indenture")), and (ii) no portion of the Option shall
vest after the date (the "Cut-Off Date") that is the earlier of (i) the date
that the Executive Employment Agreement (as described in Section 14 of this
Agreement) is terminated, and (ii) the date on which the Company sends
Miller-Jones a notice referred to in 8(b) of the Executive Employment Agreement.

            c. If Miller-Jones's employment with the Company, or any of its
affiliates, is terminated for any reason, Miller-Jones shall have only sixty
(60) days after the Cut-Off Date to exercise that portion of the Option that has
vested as of the Cut-Off Date, and Miller-Jones shall have no right to exercise
any portion of the Option that has not then vested.

            d. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Option Agreement, the
Option shall expire and be of no further force or effect with respect to any
Shares on the earlier to occur of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Effective
Date or (ii) sixty days after the date that Miller-Jones ceases to be an
employee of the Company, or any of its affiliates, for any reason whatsoever
(including but not limited to Miller-Jones's death, disability, voluntary
termination or involuntary termination).

                               Exhibit A - Page 1

<PAGE>

            e. Each exercise of the Option shall reduce, by an equal number, the
total number of shares of Common Stock that may thereafter be purchased by
Miller-Jones under the Option.

      2. Manner of Exercise.

      Subject to the conditions and restrictions contained in Section 3 below,
the Option shall be exercised by delivering written notice of exercise to the
Secretary of the Company. Such notice shall be irrevocable and must be
accompanied by payment in cash, banker's draft or such other form of
consideration as the Company may approve, and a signed Subscription Agreement,
reasonably acceptable to both parties.

      3. Non-transferability.

      Neither this Option nor any interest therein may be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any manner (other than by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution during the option period
described in Section 1, or in a manner as may be established from time to time
by the Company's Stock Option Committee pursuant to the Plan ). This Option is
not assignable by operation of law or subject to execution, attachment or
similar process. During Miller-Jones's lifetime, the Option can only be
exercised by Miller-Jones. Any attempted sale, pledge, assignment, hypothecation
or other transfer of the Option or any interest therein contrary to the
provisions hereof, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process
upon the Option or any interest therein shall be null and void and without force
or effect. No transfer of the Option by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Company shall
have been furnished written notice thereof executed by the personal
representative of the estate of Miller-Jones which shall be accompanied by an
authenticated copy of the letters testamentary appointing such personal
representative, or such other evidence as the Company may deem reasonably
necessary to establish the validity of the transfer, and also evidence as the
Company may deem reasonably necessary to establish the acceptance by the
transferee or transferees of the terms and conditions of the Option. The terms
of the Option transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution
shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of
Miller-Jones.

      4. Adjustment in the Event of Change in Stock.

      In the event of any change in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company
due to stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, mergers,
consolidations, split-ups, rights offering, warrants, or exchange of shares, the
number and kind of the Shares and/or the purchase price per Share will be
appropriately adjusted, upwards or downwards, consistent with such change. The
reasonable determination of the Company regarding any adjustment will be final
and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company
of shares of stock of any class shall affect, and no adjustment by reason
thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of the Shares.


                               Exhibit A - Page 2

      5. No Stock Rights.

      Miller-Jones shall not be entitled to vote, be deemed the holder of any
Shares, have the right to receive dividends with respect to any Shares, or
otherwise have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to
any Shares, unless and until Miller-Jones has exercised the Option with respect
to such Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Option
Agreement.

      6. Reservation and Issuance of Shares.

            a. The Company will at all times have authorized, and reserve and
keep available, free from preemptive rights, the number of shares of Common
Stock that is sufficient for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any
obligation to issue the shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Option.

            b. The Company covenants that all Shares will, upon issuance in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, be duly authorized, fully paid and
non-assessable.

      7. Lock-up Agreement

      During the term of this Option Agreement, Miller-Jones if requested by the
Company and the lead underwriter of any public offering of the Common Stock or
other securities of the Company (the "Lead Underwriter"), hereby irrevocably
agrees not to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, transfer the
economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise
transfer or dispose of any interest in any Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or any other rights to
purchase or acquire Common Stock (except Common Stock included in such public
offering or acquired on the public market after such offering) during the
180-day period following the effective date of a registration statement of the
Company filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such shorter
period of time as the Lead Underwriter shall specify. Miller-Jones further
agrees to sign such documents as may be requested by the Lead Underwriter to
effect the foregoing and agrees that the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to such Common Stock or such other securities subject
until the end of such period. The Company and Miller-Jones acknowledge that each
Lead Underwriter of a public offering of the Company's stock, during the period
of such offering and for the 180-day period thereafter, is an intended
beneficiary of this Section 7.

      8. Representations and Warranties of Miller-Jones. In order to induce the
Company to accept this Option Agreement, Miller-Jones hereby represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:

            a. If in the future Miller-Jones desires to offer or dispose of the
Option or any the Shares or any interest therein, he will do so only in
compliance with applicable securities laws and this Option Agreement.

            b. Miller-Jones acknowledges that there may be restrictions under
the securities laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which he resides on the sale of
the Shares he obtains on exercise of the Option, and that he should seek legal
assistance before proceeding with the purchase or sale of said Shares.

            c. Miller-Jones agrees that the representations and warranties of
Miller-Jones set forth in this Section 8 shall survive the exercise of the
Option and the termination or expiration of this Option Agreement for a period
of six months.

      9. Governing Law.

      This Option Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed
by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the principles of
conflicts of laws or choice of law.

      10. Benefit.

      This Option Agreement shall be binding upon the Company, Miller-Jones,
their heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors, and
permitted assigns, and Miller-Jones in furtherance thereof may execute a will
directing Miller-Jones's executor to perform this Option Agreement and to
execute all documents necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Option
Agreement, but the failure to execute such a will shall not affect the rights of
the Company or the obligations of Miller-Jones's estate as provided in this
Option Agreement. Nothing in this Option Agreement, expressed or implied, is
intended to confer upon any person, other than the parties hereto, any rights or
remedies under or by reason of this Option Agreement.

      11. Specific Performance.

      The parties to this Option Agreement hereby agree that an award of damages
alone is inadequate to remedy a breach of terms of this Option Agreement and
that specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedy is the
only way by which the intent of this Option Agreement may be adequately realized
upon breach by one or more of the parties. Such remedy shall, however, be
cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other remedy which
the parties may have.

      12. Waiver.

      Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants
or conditions of this Option Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such
terms, covenants or conditions, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of any
right or power hereunder at any one time or more times be deemed a waiver or
relinquishment of such right or power at any other time or times.
