Daddy's Daughters (Russian: Папины дочки, romanizedPapiny Dochki) is a Russian TV series that aired for 20 seasons from September 3, 2007 to April 30, 2013. Made by "Kinokonstanta" (episodes 1 to 60), "Kostafilm" (episodes 61 to 370) and "Yellow, Black and White" (since episode 371) film companies, the show revolves around psychoterapist Sergey Vasnetsov (Andrei Leonov) and his five daughters who were all left by their mother after she fled to Canada with a hockey player. The series has very high television ratings and has won multiple awards (received four "TEFI"[1][2]). Unlike many other Russian sitcoms of those years, this is an original series,[3] and is not an adaptation of a foreign show.

Plot

[edit]

Protagonist Sergei Vasnetsov (Andrei Leonov), a family therapist from a small private clinic, was in a deplorable situation. His wife, Lyudmila Vasnetsova (Nonna Grishayeva), left him for a hockey player. To make matters worse, his practice is all but collapsing, as all of his patients have left. His wife's departure leaves their five daughters (Miroslava Karpovich, Anastasia Sivayeva, Darya Melnikova, Elizaveta Arzamasova, Ekaterina Starshova) in his care.

Trivia

[edit]
  • Shooting the series began July 13, 2007.[4] Creators and arrangers of the title song "Daddy's Daughters" are brothers Kristovskiy (group «Uma2rman»).[5]
  • At first only 60 episodes were planned. However, because of the huge ratings "Daddy's daughters" was continued. In 2008-2009, the project was a leader among Russian sitcoms. So, in 2008, the average share of premiere episodes in the audience of "all 6-54" was phenomenal — at the level of 19.9% (rating 5.0%).[6]
  • "Daddy's Daughters" is the first Russian TV series to get adapted by a foreign channel. German channel Das Vierte began shooting a German remake called "Ein Haus voller Töchter" in spring 2009[7] and started broadcasting it in August 2010. However, "Ein Haus voller Töchter" received very poor ratings and very poor critical reception. It was panned for its poor and clichéd writing and its overuse of canned laughter. Jan Schlüter of Quotenmeter.de concluded that "television could hardly get worse".[8]
  • Angelina Varganova who played Olga Antonova died on January 4, 2013, from pneumonia at the age of 41, before she could finish the storyline of the character.[9]
