Continuation of the most popular TV series in Russia: the first details are no longer encouraging

Kinopoisk therefore announced the third season of “Trigger”. By the way, according to the same Kinopoisk, this is the most popular TV series in Russia. Yes, yes, it beat both “The Boy’s Word” and “Kitchen”, and all in terms of ratings. However, judging by the latest news, this triumph will not last long. Just before the release of the next season, which will reportedly take place at the end of 2024. And that’s why.

The main role will still remain in the tenacious and skillful hands of Maxim Matveev. But the hero’s environment will change completely. New characters will appear in the series: a football fan who almost lost his family, played by Maxim Stoyanov, and a girl with panic attacks, played by Anastasia Ukolova.

And all of this would be fine if it weren’t for the traditional “but.” First of all, the feature film that followed the second season finale was complete nonsense, to say the least. And the show still has a galaxy of secret or poorly developed characters from previous seasons.

Frame of t/s “Trigger”

So it’s no surprise that fans are skeptical even before the premiere. After all, instead of working with old and beloved characters and revealing their facets to the audience, the showrunners, in search of development and ratings (and therefore money), have created new, incomprehensible and unclear characters with whom they have to relate, delve into, fall in love and fall in love again.

But what about old characters and their stories? In general, the skepticism and panic of those waiting for the release of the new season is completely understandable and clear. However, we advise not to blow the smoke without fire beforehand. Or at least wait until the first episode to draw preliminary conclusions and execute or forgive the creators of the third “Trigger”.
