Notes:
Evening Urgant (Russian: Вечерний Ургант) is a Russian late-night talk show hosted by Ivan Urgant on Channel One.
Every episode starts with a cold open, featuring jokes usually related to the night’s guests. Following that, the opening credit sequence plays, featuring a series of nighttime shots of Moscow, with Urgant walking down the street. Back in the studio, Urgant delivers a stand-up opening monologue containing jokes about current events, pop culture, or politics. Following the monologue, the show may feature one or more comedy skits or recurring segments, after which Urgant brings out that evening’s celebrity guests for one-on-one interviews. The final segment of the show features a live performance from a musical guest or similar type of talent showcase.
The main focus of the show is on the portion containing celebrity interviews. Every episode features one or more celebrity guests, such as movie actors, singers, etc. Similar to western talk shows of this style, the interviews are conducted with the host sitting behind a desk, and the guests seated on a couch next to him. Many guests are also invited to take part in comedy skits, which are usually tailor-made for them.
