Production
“CTC Media” has created an in-house production and proprietary program rights management function through the recent acquisitions of two production companies, “Costafilm” and “Soho–Media”.
Costafilm specializes exclusively on programming for “CTC”. “Costafilm” provides ““CTC” with dramatic programs, sketch shows, TV films and sitcoms. Among its products are the original long-running series Cadets and the first original Russian sitcom “Daddy’s Daughters” “(Russian: Папины дочки)”, both among ““CTC”’s most successful recent programs. It is a comedy about a single father and his five daughters. “Cadets” is an original Russian series about a daily life of boys enrolled in a military school. On many projects “Costafilm” works in cooperation with the premier TV content producers such as “Sony Pictures Entertainment”, “Buena Vista”, and “FremantleMedia”.
“Soho–Media” has been operating on the Russian TV market for over fifteen years. It specializes in the production of entertainment TV shows, such as the highly popular “Minute of Fame” and “The Great Race”. For the past five years “Soho–Media” worked in close cooperation with “FremantleMedia”. For “CTC” television network “Soho–Media” adapted “Just Kidding Me” which is hosted by Russian pop star “Glukoza” and produced the original Russian talent search show similar to “American Idol”.

“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
