Thread: Russian TV

What are you’re favorite Russian TV shows? I am just curios to know what are Russians watching.

There is nothing to watch in TV. Everything is BS. Not only in Russia I think.

I watch movies only.

I've hanged the note "ТАМ ВРАГ" (There's a Foe out there) on my TV so every time I watch it i see these words and feel somehow reassuring.

I'm watching the serial film "Солдаты" Its the best Russian film Ive ever seen!!!

(BTW, Maybe I'm wrong, but something tells me that the sentence "I am just curios to know what are Russians watching." must be "I am just curios to know what Russians are watching." ...
Am I right???)

I'm also watching the serial "Cолдаты" sometimes i like "КВН", "Хорошие шутки" and "Воскресный вечер с Владимиром Соловьевым" ...but in general i don't like to sit before the boob tube)))

Yes, pretty right.

With 800 channels of cable, there's nothing on here in the UK except gameshows and old re-runs of American sitcoms.

People seem to be addcted to this 'Lost' series in the UK and America at the moment. I haven't seen it though, I don't generally watch TV at all these days.

i used to wach the Malahov show, called большая стирка that used to fun sometimes but later became 5 вечеров and now it's only for old pensioners.. so i don't watch it anymore thank God it's so depressing.

"BTW, maybe I'm wrong, but something tells me that the sentence "I am just curios to know what are Russians watching," should read: "I am just curious to know what Russians are watching." So basically you are correct except those two bolded sections (note the comma and colon I added). Молодец! Oh, and make sure you spell "curious" correctly -- it is a fairly common error for even English speakers, but "curio" is a kind of cabinet!

Oh, and btw guys, if you are posting anything in Russian, you're making it completely useless to OP, since he has no clue what you're saying. Heck, he doesn't understand about 2/3rds of what we post in English! Nevertheless, I am enjoying the responses!

Virtually the only thing I watch on the idiot box is football (soccer I mean). And I wish I didn't even watch this 'cause yesterday my team lost the UEFA CL final to the bloody catalans
TV is trash!

P.S. Forgot one thing. Barmaley, excuse me, but who is OP?

First time I heard it too, my guess would be OP = Original Poster!

Really? I thought it was pretty common. But you guys are right. OP=original poster.

Currently hooked on 1 channel's "Alexander Gardens". I am mad though that NTV is running the new "Dr Zhivago" at the same time . Guess I'll have to buy the DVD in a few months.

on canadian tv i like "csi" and "american idol" (sounds weird, yes, but in general i am not fond of canadian shows)

i love all kinds of russian movies though. i am really enjoying "idiot", and i loved "master and margarita" no matter what other people said about the actors and so on. i just love this book and was pleased with the tv show.

Alls I go to say is: Is that not the creepiest cat you've seen in your life?

yeah nasty. kinda sad, that they butchered such a nice character

Yeah, I agree
But I loved Абдуллов! He was great!!! And Саша Белый (сергей безруков) as Jesus

Guys, I'm tired of all that complaining about the cat! The cat is good and funny. You are all spoiled by Hollywood special effects :P

But I loved Абдуллов! He was great!!! And Саша Белый (сергей безруков) as Jesus

And Филлипенко, and Галкин

I DO like the cat. He's just creepy is all.
