Project "House-1" television company TNT began on July 1 and ended on November 1, 2003. The program format was purchased from the English television company Zeal.
The project featured 90 prime-time episodes and 14 special events every weekend.
According to the terms of the project, 12 married couples from all regions of Russia built a house together, but only one of them received the keys. From the fifth week, couples left the construction site one at a time by decision of the general “family” council, and the audience chose the winners from the two remaining couples.
Requirements for participating couples: newlyweds who have already submitted an application to the registry office and are preparing for the wedding within a month, or a husband and wife who do not have their own home. The personalities of the spouses and the scope of their activities are very diverse: from a housewife to a business woman, from a military man to an accountant; as well as everyone who agrees to take a 3-month vacation and receive a super prize - a house in Moscow, built with their own hands and according to their own design.
The couples were helped in the construction by real professionals - architects, interior designers, foremen, builders, landscape designers.
According to the TNS Gallup TV Index, provided by the TNT press service, the six-month audience of Dom-2 in 2008 was about 15 million people throughout Russia. “They are mostly women (65% of all viewers of Dom-2).
The program attracts the attention of people of all ages, but “Dom-2” is more interesting to young people aged 16 to 34 with secondary and higher education.”
Show rules:
1. Every Wednesday, participants choose a pair.
2. Every Thursday there is a vote during which the participants decide which of the solo players should leave the show.
3. A new player takes the place of the one who dropped out: a boy takes the place of the girl, a girl takes the place of the boy.
4. Every week the right to choose passes to a different gender.
5. Three couples in love reach the finals, and live of the final show, viewers use SMS voting to decide who exactly will get the House.
Former participants of the show more than once became heroes of crime chronicles. Alexey Avdeev was detained in August 2005 right on the set. He was identified by a TV viewer from Smolensk, from whom he, working as a realtor, stole 2 thousand dollars. Avdeev was sentenced by the court to four years in a maximum security colony for fraud.
In April 2006, Kirill Komarovsky was detained in Moscow on suspicion of fraud. After spending a week on the project, he got a job as an assistant to a realtor in a Moscow company. And already on the second day of work he disappeared, having received a deposit for the apartment.
He was sentenced to 6.5 years in a maximum security colony former member reality show “Dom-2” Vyacheslav Popov. A student at Syktyvkar State University was caught red-handed by drug control officers in July 2006 while selling a batch of hashish.
Two former participants of the show died. Oksana Aplekaeva was found strangled on the Moscow-Riga highway in September 2008. And a year earlier, in June 2007, Kristina Kalinina died. She was treated poorly by the show's cast because she abandoned her family for fame. She left the project based on the results of the vote. She died as a result of kidney and heart failure, according to some sources, as a result of stress after leaving the reality show.
The reality show "Dom-2" often becomes the object of public criticism.
In May 2005, deputies of the Moscow City Duma Commission on Health and Public Health, headed by Lyudmila Stebenkova, prepared an appeal to the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Ustinov, in which they demanded to close the television project and bring the host of this program, Ksenia Sobchak, to criminal liability for pimping. According to the appeal, the program “generally and systematically exploits the interest in sex: it repeatedly showed scenes of petting and acts of masturbation.”
At the beginning of June 2005, Ksenia Sobchak went to court demanding protection of her honor and dignity. In July, the Presnensky District Court of Moscow issued a resolution to terminate the proceedings on the claim of the TV presenter against deputies of the Moscow City Duma. The court ruled that the deputies cared about the morality of the electorate and had every right to write such an appeal.
The show caused harsh criticism from the Public Council on Morals on TV, which includes authoritative people from among writers, artists, politicians, and religious figures. In December 2008, members of the Council came to the conclusion that it was necessary to close the television project “Dom-2” or fine the TNT channel for a large sum for broadcasting obscene phrases and erotic scenes.
There are claims against the organizers of the television project and Rosprirodnadzor. In the summer of 2004, Rosprirodnadzor inspectors identified a number of gross violations of environmental legislation committed by the organizers of the Dom-2 program. In particular, the discharge of untreated sewage and household waste into the Istra River, illegal cutting of trees and clogging of the stream bed were carried out.

After sunset." The delay in the show from the moment of filming is about 5 days.
TV show producers
From 2004 to 2010, TNT-Teleset OJSC itself was involved in the production of reality shows. The production of the reality show from 2010 to 2015 was carried out by Comedy Club Production LLC (according to general producer Arthur Janibekyan, the company has been producing reality shows since 2009). Since the beginning of 2015, the production of the reality show has been carried out by Alexander Karmanov's Solaris Promo Production LLC, but as Kommersant reports, the company has been producing Dom-2 since March 2014, until this time Comedy Club continued to purchase the program from the structures of its founder Valery Komissarov. In 2015, SPP’s revenue amounted to 4.75 billion rubles; half of this amount was earned directly from the production of “House-2”. Within a year, the company became one of the largest television production studios in the country. Since 2016, the TNT-Production company has been producing reality shows.
This is a highly profitable business, says Marina Williams, General Director of Endemol in Central and Eastern Europe(manufacturer of similar Big show Brother), since the main investments go to equipping the premises and fees for invited celebrities. Filming one hour of the show at cost can be 50-60 thousand dollars.
Criticism
Reality TV is perceived by a significant part of the public, many journalists and writers, experts and religious figures negatively and periodically becomes the object of harsh criticism. Some do not share this point of view. On the show, conflicts often occur between participants, often escalating into fights, despite the prohibition by the rules and the threat of disqualification of the instigator. It has been suggested that participants are specially selected in such a way that as many conflicts as possible occur on the project. Other grounds for criticism are imitation of “love”, acting for the camera and using a partner to delay the transmission. The show is often ridiculed in various comedy programs.
In May 2005, deputies of the Moscow City Duma commission on healthcare and public health, headed by Lyudmila Stebenkova, prepared an appeal to the Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Ustinov, in which they demanded to close the television project “Dom-2: Build Your Love” on the TNT channel and to attract the host of this program, Ksenia Sobchak to criminal liability for pimping. According to the text of the appeal, the program “in general and systematically exploits the interest in sex: it repeatedly showed scenes of petting and acts of masturbation.” The letter says that “based on Art. 37 of the Law of the Russian Federation “On the Mass Media,” such a television program can only be broadcast from 11 pm to 4 am.” In addition, the deputies drew the attention of the prosecutor's office to the fact that a minor girl (Margarita Agibalova, 17 years old) once participated in the program. Presenter Ksenia Sobchak responded to this:
| “They don’t like deputies in Russia and laugh at them, and the more they write such letters, the more they will be disliked. They took on the role of the Inquisition and managed to take their moralism to the point of complete absurdity. Instead of deciding real problems youth - issues of mortgage lending, increasing scholarships, etc., deputies find themselves a whipping girl, in in this case me. We at Dom-2 deal with youth problems more than these same deputies: it is quite obvious to reasonable people that the television project teaches people to love and be friends. The TNT television channel, in response to this, announced its intention to bring the deputies to criminal liability under Articles 129 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“slander”) and 306 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“knowingly false denunciation”).” |
Officials of the TNT channel accuse the plaintiffs of trying to restrict freedom of speech; in 2007, TNT general producer Dmitry Troitsky told reporters “ Russian newspaper“, that no criticism of the reality show “Dom-2” can stop the project, and that the project would have been stopped if “Dom-2” had not been watched.

Among Dasha's suitors were Rustam Solntsev and womanizer Andrei Cherkasov. But the girl built love with the athlete Sergei Pynzar. In 2010, the couple decided to get married, and in the summer of 2011 their first child, Artem, was born.
After the birth of their child, Pynzari moved from the “House-2” site to a city apartment from the project and occasionally appeared on the show. After the TV show, the family started a family business: the Pynzaris own a clothing store. In 2016, the couple had a second boy, David.

Just one day was not enough for Stepan to reach the record - along with Daria, he is the main “old man” of the project. In 2004, Menshchikov was one of the first settlers on the project.
On the show, Stepan was nicknamed Jim Carrey - for his resemblance and sense of humor. With his charisma, Menshchikov won the hearts of the “first beauties” of the perimeter: Alena Vodonaeva, Victoria Boni, Alexandra Kharitonova. However, harmonious relationships did not develop. Due to quarrels, scandals and even fights, the young people separated.
In 2008, Menshchikov left the project and began building a career in television. He appeared in the show “Stars Change Their Profession,” then, together with Rustam Solntsev, hosted the program “Hu from Hu,” and visited the show “Let’s Get Married!”
In 2011, Stepan married Evgenia Shamaeva, and in 2013 he became a father. Later it turned out that his wife gave birth to a son from another man, but this did not affect Stepan’s attitude towards the baby. Now Menshchikov is divorced, raising a son and daughter, working as a showman.
Olga Buzova, 32 years old

In parallel with the show, Olya studied at the Faculty of Geography and Geoecology at St. Petersburg State University and even graduated with honors.
At a television set, Olga met Roman Tretyakov. Their couple was an audience favorite. So much so that the producers of “House-2” decided to launch a separate show called “A Romance with Buzova.” However, two years later the lovers broke up. Roma thought that he needed to move forward and left the project, but Olya did not join him. Buzova continued her career on television, met with Stanislav Karimov, then with Alessandro Materazzo.
In 2008, Buzova decided to leave the TV show, but the producers did not want to let go of the source of the rating and offered Olga the role of presenter of “House-2” along with Ksenia Borodina.
Now Olga is one of the most rated singers in Russian show business, but musical career Olga managed to build on the ruins of her personal life.

After three months of dating, Anton proposed, and in June 2012 the couple got married. The couple had a son, Daniel, in December.
After the project, the couple moved to a house in the Moscow region and founded a family fashion business, but the love story came to an end.

Nothing worked out with Rustam, but Sasha Gabozov decided to court Nadya. Relations with Gabozov became serious. The guy even proposed, but the girl did not immediately answer. Doubts cooled Alexander, and as a result the couple broke up, and Nadezhda was kicked out of the project.

Popular television show, which airs daily on the TNT channel, is 10 years old. May 11 entertainment project celebrated its anniversary, and in honor of such an event we decided to remember the brightest moments, the best participants and interesting facts programs.
"Dom-2" started in 2004 under the leadership of a then-unknown and popular TV presenter. Four years later, the latter was replaced by Olga Buzova - former member project, which spent about four years on it. The first episodes of the program with Sobchak hosted famous actor, but soon the producers of the show invited the young and talented Ksenia Borodina to play this role. The girl tried to break into television for a long time, participating in a variety of castings and even trying herself as an actress. Now it is impossible to imagine “Dom-2” without Borodina and Buzova - two irreplaceable presenters who have become close friends of many participants in the reality show.
History of "House-2"
Initially, the project was created as a follower of the “Home” project - a program in which married couples built not only relationships, but also a very real home to live in. The show aired on TNT from July 1 to November 2, 2003. In the final, based on the results of audience voting, the most active and memorable couple received a house. The program was hosted by singer and athlete Svetlana Khorkina, the final was hosted by Dmitry Nagiyev. That is why the producers entrusted him with hosting the first episodes of Dom-2.

Due to the high ratings of the "Home" project, it was decided to launch new show. But at "House-2" the participants no longer needed to act as builders, now their care and main task there were only romantic relationships. It’s not for nothing that the project’s slogan sounds like “Build your love.” On May 11, 2004, Ksenia Sobchak, together with the first 15 participants, launched Dom-2, which demonstrates high ratings among viewers to this day.

Many couples were created on "House-2", some of which are still together.

Daria and Sergey Pynzari are rightfully considered one of the brightest and strongest married couples. The girl who initially came to the Dom-2 project with Rustam Kalganov (Solntsev) eventually managed to start a family and give birth to a child right in front of the TV viewers. Daria Chernykh ( maiden name participant) succeeded not only as a mother, but also as a businesswoman. She created a whole network of clothing stores throughout the country. Dasha is helped in business by her beloved husband Seryozha, whom she dotes on. The married couple and their son Artem live in a VIP house and have no plans to leave the Dom-2 project. The Pynzaris have big plans for the future - they want to give birth to a second child, develop in business and travel a lot around the world.

Rustam Kalganov (Solntsev) on the Dom-2 project has long been considered something of a mentor and coach. He came to the project back in 2007 and is still one of the most bright participants. The man, who celebrated his 37th birthday, is happy to give advice to young people on how to build relationships. At the same time, in the life of Rustam himself there is no family or its semblance yet. Solntsev was already married once, but got divorced and is now looking for love again. Because of the rumors about his unconventional orientation, which have accompanied Kalganov for many years, guys even came to him.
The project is constantly discussed sexual orientation Rustam
Ventseslav Vengrzhanovsky, or simply Vents, as other participants affectionately called him, lasted on the Dom-2 project for more than four years. The young man repeatedly tried to find a girlfriend and even married Ekaterina Tokareva in December 2011. The young people got married right before the New Year 2012, but later divorced. After leaving Dom-2, Wenceslav tried himself as a participant in the Battle of Psychics, but did not make it to the finals.

The family history of the Gusevs deserves special mention. Evgenia Feofilaktova, who previously dated Alexander Zadoynov, Andrei Cherkasov, Nikita Kuznetsov, Ilya Gazhienko and Mikhail Terekhin, married Alexei Gusev. The young man proposed to her after three months of dating, and soon the couple had a son, Daniel.

Elina Kamiren and Alexander Zadoynov, who were planning a celebration for the tenth anniversary of the show, withdrew their applications from the registry office. However, everything may change in the near future: it recently became known that Elina is pregnant with Sasha’s child, she returned to the project and now the young people live together.

Liberzh Kpadonu and Evgeny Rudnev became the next candidates for a wedding on the 10th anniversary of “House-2”. But there was also a breakdown in the relationship of this couple: after another hysteria, Zhenya Liber called off the engagement and admitted that she was not ready to become a wife young man. Perhaps someday viewers will see the wedding of this couple, but this will definitely not happen in the near future.

Andrei Cherkasov and Anya Kruchinina a few months ago were planning a luxurious wedding at the expense of the project, but the relationship of this couple was under threat. The young people separated, but unable to bear the separation, they got back together. Now there is harmony in their romance, but there is no longer talk of a wedding.

Scandals related to the Dom-2 project
The history of "House-2" has been associated with many scandals. In 2009, the Presnensky Court of Moscow banned the broadcast of the project from 16:00 to 23:00 - during the so-called “children’s time”. Despite the fact that the TNT television channel filed an appeal against this decision, the court confirmed the ban. Until October 2010, the program was released only in the format of evening and night editions, and then the daytime edition was restored.

At one time, the television screen literally exploded with a completely new original television project, “Home,” both in form and content.
The reality show began on July 1, 2003, and lasted four months, keeping people in suspense for the next episode. large number TV viewers. During the entire broadcast of the television program, 90 episodes were released in prime time and 14 special events on weekends.
It must be said that the concept itself television program“House 1” was legally borrowed from the English television company Zeal, but the Russian reality show “House” almost immediately surpassed its prototype in popularity. The slogan of the first episode of the TV show was “Build your own home, for happiness in it”, which, in fact, is what the participants were doing during the entire TV production.
The rules of the first House were significantly different from the format and conditions to which today’s television viewers of the television project are accustomed, although no, no, yes, the words “television construction” are heard from the show’s hosts.
Nowadays, relationships are mainly built, but then the participants took an active part in the construction of the house itself. So, what were the rules of the reality show “House 1”?
Terms and conditions on the verge of "School of Survival"
12 pairs of completely different young people from all over our vast country were carefully selected and then invited to the television platform.
Married couples were selected according to the following principles: firstly, they must be newlyweds or already preparing for the wedding and awaiting registration at the registry office. The main condition is that couples must be in dire need of housing, that is, they must not have their own square meters at all.
According to the rules of the TV show, in addition to real professionals (architects, foremen, interior designers, landscape designers and the builders themselves), all 12 married couples take part in the construction of a house, but only one of them will win it or the opportunity to receive a cash prize.
Every week, starting from the fifth, one of the couples left the television set. The decision to expel is made by the participants themselves at a “general family council.” Even then, the “frontal place” became the traditional way of carrying out this execution. From the two “surviving” married couples, the winner is chosen by the TV viewers themselves.
The young people were selected in such a way that their areas of activity and position in society differed significantly from each other. The selected participants ultimately perfectly represented a certain cross-section of society, practically all its facets.
The biggest prize in modern television
When the organizers of the TV show “House 1” announced prize fund, even seasoned producers of other projects and TV viewers themselves were literally amazed.
The winners were to receive 8 million rubles (that’s how much the luxury house built cost). As practice has shown, the risk was justified and the project broke all viewing records.
The surge in audience interest was such that even after the end given first"pilot" season of the TV show "Home", a more advanced and significantly transformed and adapted to the tastes and demands of television viewers appeared on the screens of the TNT channel.
He, in turn, due to his duration and popularity, was included in the Guinness Book of Records.
The first presenters of the TV show "Home"
Over the entire existence of the television project “House 1”, its hosts were “star” personalities: Nikolai Baskov, Svetlana Khorkina and Dmitry Nagiyev.
The first and most memorable host of the reality show “House 1” among television viewers was Nikolai Baskov. Famous singer, for whom this project was his first experience as a presenter, during the TV production he became a true friend to all participants and was a long-awaited guest in each of the 12 houses.
Nikolai very successfully revealed his talents as a TV presenter in the TV show “House 1”, sincerely penetrating and understanding all the vicissitudes family relations and relationships in the most scandalous team. The participants were always grateful to his advice.
Then he was replaced by Svetlana Khorkina, who, thanks to her calm, feminine character was able to smooth out many of the “sharp corners” that crop up every now and then on TV shows. Dmitry Nagiyev, who replaced Svetlana, in turn, decorated the reality show with sparkling humor and proved himself to be a real showman during the period of the series.
Naturally, such star presenters added even more “points” to the “piggy bank” of TNT, which literally blew up the television space in 2003, laying a strong foundation in the form of a huge number of TV viewers in love with the project for the next season of the show.
