  The experimental charged particles multiplicity distributions in $e^+e^-$
annihilation to hadrons are compared with the distributions obtained by PYTHIA.
The ratio $\chi^2$/degrees of freedom is calculated for 6 energies at
$\sqrt{s}$ 14 -- 206.2 GeV. The necessity of more subtle tuning of PYTHIA at
the energy of $Z^0$ peak is discussed.
