Hugh jackman kisses ivan urgant in russian tv
Prozhektorperiskhilton (Projectorparishilton, Spotlightparishilton) (Прожекторперисхилтон) - is a Russian satirical show aired on Channel One. The first episode was aired on 17 May 2008.
Contents
Four hosts (Ivan Urgant, Garik Martirosyan, Sergey Svetlakov, Alexander Tsekalo) discuss some current news and comment on different issues in politics and economics, similar to 7 Tage, 7 Köpfe. The show's name is a reference to the 80s TV program "Прожектор Перестройки" ("Prozhektor Perestroyki", "Spotlight on Perestroika") - a program that was discussing current events on Soviet television during the times of Perestroika - and American socialite Paris Hilton, who, according to Svetlakov, symbolizes lack of taste. Thus, the name of the show implies that this is a current events program that shouldn't be taken seriously.
The four hosts usually discuss interesting news from newspapers, journals and the internet. From time to time they also answer questions from the audience. The show usually ends with the hosts performing a well-known song. In most cases the song is connected to an event (like the birthday of the song's author). The show is half improvised.
The show aired until June 2012, when most hosts have switched to hosts on shows airing on competing channels. However, on 20 February 2017, Channel One announced that the show would be returning (with Tsekalo as executive producer) in 4 March - airing weekly on Saturdays.
Guests
Almost every episode of the show has one or more guests invited to talk about current events. The guest usually brings with him/her an article from a newspaper, which is also discussed by the panelists. In many cases the guest also sings a song with the four hosts in the end of the show. Some episodes (especially those dedicated to holidays and end-of-season episodes) have multiple guests.
