The program aired weekly, getting 4 seasons with a total of 70 episodes. [1] Filming for the new episodes stopped in 1998, when the show's creators decided that it should be closed so as not to lose quality due to a lack of new ideas. [2] Each of the actors played several different roles in it. The content of most of the sketches was a parody of typical TV entertainment shows. All of the show's participants, including the guest stars, were adorned with unnaturally long noses, hence the show's name.
Each episode consists of a number of rubrics and is devoted to a specific theme. At the beginning there is a meeting where the director scolds the staff or talks about his next plan to raise the popularity of the show, to save money, etc. Between the rubrics demonstrates the "normal" life of actors, cameramen or illuminators.
Rubrics:
Taisia Povaliy, EL Kravchuk, Aleksandr Tsekalo, Lolita Milyavskaya, Serhii Syvokho , Volodymyr Danylets, Vladimir Moiseenko, Green Gray, Oleh Skrypka, Volodymyr Bystriakov, Olha Yunakova.
Since the early 2000s the phraseme of the "dovhonosyky show" has been known to refer to meaningless and/or comic events in Ukrainian politics. [4] [5] [6]
In 2013, the Russian website oKino included the Dovhonosyky Show as one of the turning points of Ukrainian television. "Dovhonosyky" was called the Ukrainian " Monty Python", however, they noted that the show stood out among the comedy shows of its time and therefore did not have much success, although it did gain cult status [7]
Actor Viktor Andriyenko said about the "Dovhonosyky Show" that its time has passed and it is not impractical to revive or imitate of the project in its former form. He added that "dovhonosyky" were relevant at the time, and modern viewer will not accept them, but it is possible to show old episodes retrospectively. [8] [9]
