A television

"Heads and Tails"

In 2014, the creative biography of Evgeny Sinelnikov changed dramatically. Quite unexpectedly for himself, he changed the post of director to the role of TV presenter, thereby gaining fame among the general public. The popular travel show “Heads and Tails,” where Sinelnikov had been the production director for eight seasons, suddenly found itself without one of its hosts: Kolya Serga missed the plane to Bordeaux, and the team flew to filming without him. The film crew had to get out of the situation by placing the program director himself in the frame.

This involuntary experiment turned out to be very successful, especially since Serga had already announced his desire to leave the project and take up music (in addition to working on television, Kolya is on the front page, where he performs songs of his own authorship). Sinelnikov successfully spent the ninth season of the TV show, winning audience sympathy in record time. At various times, the male presenters were also music video director Alan Badoev and actor Andrei Bednyakov.

Evgeny was literally at the origins of “Heads and Tails” - his wife Elena Sinelnikova is a co-author and producer of this show. In 2010, the couple, together with Natella Krapivina, decided to implement a pilot project at their own risk. There was almost no money for filming, but the guys were confident of success and did not want their idea to be lost or implemented by others. Therefore, the film crew invested their own funds in the first episode, filmed in Barcelona (it is listed as the fifth in the official show, airing in March 2011).

On the set of "Heads and Tails"

The idea of the show is extremely simple: two hosts go to the same city for the weekend. There they throw lots - a coin. The will of chance decides which of them receives a “golden” card for this weekend and will spend this time without constraint on funds, and which will have to look for entertainment based on a budget of one hundred dollars for two days. It is interesting that the idea and concept of the project is exclusively original, in contrast to numerous reworkings of foreign analogues.

Expectations regarding the reaction of investors were justified: the Inter TV channel immediately bought the rights to the first two seasons of “Heads and Tails.” Subsequently, the show was broadcast on the K1 channel and outside of Ukraine: in Russia (“Friday!”), Kazakhstan (“Channel Seven”) and Poland (“TTV”). In 2014, the show “Heads and Tails” was recognized as the best entertainment program of the daytime broadcast at the TEFI awards.

In the summer of 2021, it became known that popular presenter Lesya Nikityuk was leaving the project, and Russian actor Pyotr Romanov would take her place in the pair of presenters. Many immediately began to assume that she had a conflict with producer Elena Sinelnikova, but in fact Lesya was simply offered to go to the new project “Around M”, which was supposed to be the next stage in her professional development.

In Ukraine, Sinelnikov was awarded the national television award Teletriumph. In 2014 and 2015, Evgeniy was recognized as the most successful in the category “Best Director/Producer of a TV Program.”

Excerpt characterizing Sinelnikov, Evgeniy Aleksandrovich

- Ready, Your Excellency. What do you order about Vereshchagin? “He’s waiting at the porch,” answered the adjutant. - A! - Rostopchin cried out, as if struck by some unexpected memory. And, quickly opening the door, he stepped out onto the balcony with decisive steps. The conversation suddenly stopped, hats and caps were taken off, and all eyes rose to the count who had come out. - Hello guys! - the count said quickly and loudly. - Thank you for coming. I’ll come out to you now, but first of all we need to deal with the villain. We need to punish the villain who killed Moscow. Wait for me! “And the count just as quickly returned to his chambers, slamming the door firmly. A murmur of pleasure ran through the crowd. “That means he will control all the villains! And you say French... he’ll give you the whole distance!” - people said, as if reproaching each other for their lack of faith. A few minutes later an officer hurriedly came out of the front doors, ordered something, and the dragoons stood up. The crowd from the balcony eagerly moved towards the porch. Walking out onto the porch with angry, quick steps, Rostopchin hurriedly looked around him, as if looking for someone. - Where is he? - said the count, and at the same moment as he said this, he saw from around the corner of the house coming out between two dragoons a young man with a long thin neck, with his head half shaved and overgrown. This young man was dressed in what had once been a dandyish, blue cloth-covered, shabby fox sheepskin coat and dirty prisoner's harem trousers, stuffed into uncleaned, worn-out thin boots. Shackles hung heavily on his thin, weak legs, making it difficult for the young man to walk indecisively. - A ! - said Rastopchin, hastily turning his gaze away from the young man in the fox sheepskin coat and pointing to the bottom step of the porch. - Put it here! “The young man, clanking his shackles, stepped heavily onto the indicated step, holding the collar of his sheepskin coat that was pressing with his finger, turned his long neck twice and, sighing, folded his thin, non-working hands in front of his stomach with a submissive gesture. Silence continued for several seconds while the young man positioned himself on the step. Only in the back rows of people squeezing into one place were groans, groans, tremors and the tramp of moving feet heard. Rastopchin, waiting for him to stop at the indicated place, frowned and rubbed his face with his hand. - Guys! - said Rastopchin in a metallic ringing voice, - this man, Vereshchagin, is the same scoundrel from whom Moscow perished. A young man in a fox sheepskin coat stood in a submissive pose, clasping his hands together in front of his stomach and bending slightly. His emaciated, hopeless expression, disfigured by his shaved head, was downcast. At the first words of the count, he slowly raised his head and looked down at the count, as if wanting to tell him something or at least meet his gaze. But Rastopchin did not look at him. On the young man’s long thin neck, like a rope, the vein behind the ear became tense and turned blue, and suddenly his face turned red. All eyes were fixed on him. He looked at the crowd, and, as if encouraged by the expression that he read on the faces of the people, he smiled sadly and timidly and, again lowering his head, adjusted his feet on the step. “He betrayed his tsar and his fatherland, he handed himself over to Bonaparte, he alone of all Russians disgraced the name of the Russian, and Moscow is perishing from him,” said Rastopchin in an even, sharp voice; but suddenly he quickly looked down at Vereshchagin, who continued to stand in the same submissive pose. As if this look had exploded him, he, raising his hand, almost shouted, turning to the people: “Deal with him with your judgment!” I'm giving it to you! The people were silent and only pressed each other closer and closer. Holding each other, breathing in this infected stuffiness, not having the strength to move and waiting for something unknown, incomprehensible and terrible became unbearable. The people standing in the front rows, who saw and heard everything that was happening in front of them, all with fearfully wide-open eyes and open mouths, straining all their strength, held back the pressure of those behind them on their backs.

Personal life

The personal life of Evgeny Sinelnikov has been closely intertwined for several years with his current project - the travel show “Heads and Tails”. Evgeniy is married to Elena Sinelnikova, co-author and general producer of this TV show. Elena is also the director of the Teen Spirit production studio, which produces Heads and Tails. His wife is also actively trying to implement the development strategy for the already beloved TV show.

From the very beginning of the project, the couple has been working fruitfully in a creative tandem. The couple has a son, who, due to his parents’ busy filming schedules, lives with his grandparents in Zaporozhye. The Sinelnikov family spends all their free time with the child.

Previously, information has repeatedly appeared in the media that the TV presenter of the TV show “Heads and Tails” Regina Todorenko had an affair with Evgeny Selnikov. Regina herself denies such rumors, stating that she did not have such relationships with her colleagues, and has close contact with Evgeniy solely for general activities on the TV show.

On his Instagram, the famous presenter constantly shares new plans for the future, and also publishes photos from various foreign trips. In the future, Evgeniy plans to introduce new ideas for the project, which is so popular with Ukrainian TV viewers.

Hobbies of Evgeny Sinelnikov

Evgeniy gives all of himself to his work, he lives entirely in his career. In one of his personal interviews, he said that the goal of creating the “Heads and Tails” project was to show the public the sights and features of cities. This is not just public information, but something that can be shared with loved ones. The idea of the project is the thrill of what all its participants do. That is why they include in the series those episodes that amaze, excite and shock the audience.

However, there are also difficulties. Evgeniy argues that modern audiences can no longer be surprised by anything and the program needs to be developed in such a way that it contains a lot of extraordinary things. No less problematic is the ban in many unique places. That is why they often work secretly or film on their phones. For example, in the Tiffany boutique, when the presenter wanted to propose to his girlfriend, he had to ask for consent. It is also sometimes difficult to tell the audience the truth. After all, permission to film spoils the overall picture, and you can no longer say that the establishment is, to put it mildly, terrible. Fortunately, everyone understands Russian.

Sinelnikov has not yet decided whether he prefers to work as a presenter or a director. He argues that each activity has its own tasks and difficulties. If the city is empty of beautiful places, then the host’s jokes will always save you. The success of the project is that Sinelnikov:

thinks through everything down to the smallest detail;
creates an interesting route;
writes a funny, but at the same time intelligent script.

Viewers will continue to watch the journey of two people, whose fate is decided by a coin.
