“Ural Dumplings” is a famous humorous group that is loved by many people. This KVN team was created back in 1993. At that time, the team consisted of students from the Polytechnic University. Andrei Rozhkov, who wrote the texts for the performances, became the captain. At the same time, the group was created by a student at the Faculty of Chemistry, Dima Sokolov.

Over the course of 2 years, the team won more than once. Moreover, the students even managed to get into the Major League and become its champions in 2000.
What is worth knowing about the Ural Dumplings team?
Initially, the team had 7 participants, and each was interesting in its own way. Although the students have matured, that doesn’t stop them from being funny. “Ural Dumplings” is one of the best KVN teams. No wonder the group managed to achieve considerable popularity. All the scenes were lively, relaxed and funny.

When the team left KVN, it did not disappear without a trace. The artists decided to return to television screens again, but at the same time they founded a humorous show of the same name. Viewers appreciated the TV show. The actors are talented actors who know how to joke well.

In the program you could see mini-sketches and sketches. In addition, there were improvisation numbers with celebrities. The artists invited a person from the audience and interacted with him. As a rule, it was funny and extraordinary.
Replenishment in "Pelmeni"
In 2009, new artists joined the team. Among them, people especially remember Yulia Mikhalkova-Matyukhina, Artyom Pushkin, Ksenia Korneva. It should be noted that the artists did not stop at one project. They also participated in other programs to become even more popular. For example, your favorite artists could be seen in “Comedy Club”, “ProzhektoperiHilton”, “Our Russia”. Members of the Ural Dumplings team even acted in films. For example, Sergei Svetlakov managed to star in more than 20 films.

An interesting fact is that the KVN team was once named after an expensive restaurant that poor students could not get into. Of course, now artists can visit any establishment, regardless of pricing policy.
“Ural Dumplings” is a truly successful project. It quickly became popular because viewers needed a funny and at the same time light program. It's nice to watch charming artists who always come up with funny scenes. New issues were published regularly, and numbers were not repeated.

Like many projects, Ural Dumplings could not exist forever. Many artists wanted to go their own way because they realized that they wanted to continue to develop.

2013 pleased the team with the prestigious international award “TEFI-Commonwealth”. After 5 years, “Ural Dumplings” won the “Humorous Program/Show” award.
Interesting!
The team was named after an expensive restaurant that ordinary students had no opportunity to get into.
What are the reasons for the collapse?
The creative association “Ural Dumplings” has officially existed since 2011. Sergei Netievsky took over the position of director. At the same time, the team members tried to remove the director after 4 years. They accused him of not devoting enough time and attention to the team.
Two attempts were unsuccessful, but in the end Sergei decided to leave on his own. This didn't solve all the problems. A question has arisen about the association's logo. The fact is that it belonged to the former director. The trial is still ongoing.

After numerous trials, the atmosphere of the team became more tense. Rumors even began to circulate that the team had broken up.
The artists denied everything for a long time and did not want to talk about the fact that problems really existed. In the end, it was Yulia Mikhalkova-Matyukhina who decided to reveal the secret and talk about what was really happening in the team.

Yulia admitted on Instagram that Ural Dumplings is not closing. They split into two groups that perform separately from each other. In full force, they decided to participate only in the television show.
Why “Ural dumplings” have been suing over money for two years
03/16/2017 — FanPelmeni — News | leave a comment
Until 2020, all income from the TV show was received by a company registered to director Sergei Netievsky. For the second season in a row, a profit is being made by a legal entity in which all the “dumplings” shared shares.
Lucky Chance is being released this week . This is a funny comedy, the main characters of which are ordinary guys who won 43 million rubles and are running away from their loved ones so as not to share. The main roles of the film are the actors of the show “ Ural Dumplings ”, who know firsthand how to quarrel over money.
The creative team decided to remove director Netievsky after suspicions of “opacity” of income
The conflict in the team has been going on for a year and a half, since the fall of 2015. After disagreements in the team, the permanent director Sergei Netievsky (he once brought the team to STS) was replaced by the show's actor Sergei Isaev.
Sergei Netievsky has been the director of Ural Dumplings since 1998, when the team was still playing in KVN. By the fall of 2020, he practically single-handedly organized the team’s tours - he was the general producer of Idea Fix Media and the founder of First Hand Media . These legal entities, registered in Moscow, accompany the Ural Dumplings projects and are involved in the group’s touring activities.
At the same time, LLC Creative Association Ural Dumplings had 10 founders - that is, all the team members who were at its origins. The change of director seemed simply like a technical decision.
However, already in the summer of 2020, it became clear that the team director and his former colleagues, classmates, and friends would not be able to part ways peacefully.
The team accused Netievsky of the fact that the financial flows controlled by his companies were “opaque,” observers recall.
Now the team is suing Sergei Netievsky (pictured in the middle) for their first performance
Numerous trials began. In February 2020, Sergei Netievsky sued the Ural Dumplings Creative Association LLC for 300 thousand rubles as compensation for legal costs. In a lawsuit filed with the Arbitration Court of the Sverdlovsk Region, Netievsky demanded more than 700 thousand rubles from the team.
Also, the ex-director of the team argued that he was illegally removed from his position without notifying him of the date of the meeting 30 days in advance. In October 2020, team director Sergei Netievsky was reinstated. Then Netievsky was fired again, and he proved a violation of his rights. In the fall of 2016, he himself left the team. In February 2017, the Moscow Arbitration Court rejected a class action lawsuit by members of the Creative Association Ural Dumplings against First Hand Media, the company of Sergei Netievsky, over the rights to the Ural Dumplings trademark.
As a result, Netievsky transferred the right to two Ural Dumplings trademarks to the team, asking for a symbolic sum of two rubles - a ruble for each. “We now have a tedious negotiation process, nothing new is happening,” says Netievsky.
Ural dumplings paid two rubles for their logo
Team director Evgeniy Orlov explains that in fact, the transfer of the mark from Netievsky was logical and stemmed from the history of ownership of the base mark. “There are two trademarks: orange and basic black and white. The basic one has always belonged to the team, since the days of KVN. Any new trademark - and the orange one is of this type - could only be registered on the basis of a black and white mark. And, in order to register the orange one, Netievsky transferred a black and white sign to his company First Hand Media. The team challenged the illegal acquisition of a black and white sign, which should never have left us,” explains Orlov. “The sign should have come back to us.” In the end, this is exactly what happened, and at the end of January 2020 the mark was registered with Rospatent.
According to Orlov, Netievsky earned during the period of ownership of the sign “not a fundamentally huge amount, several million rubles, this is now being clarified.”
The dispute over copyright for all performances of “Ural Dumplings” is dragging on. It's all about a rather subtle conflict - the rights belong to all the actors of the TV show. However, before 2020, Netievsky was one of them, but after 2015, not. Joint ownership of rights to different programs is part of the negotiations, as are funds, sites and shares in the project. Neither side wants any serious problems. Orlov says that Netievsky can “in principle do as he wants, but will it be correct from a human point of view and will it be legal?”
A source close to Ural Dumplings claims that the team is now forced to rename old performances in order to avoid new lawsuits.
Team director Evgeny Orlov denies this information.
When positions on fundamental issues diverge, both sides of the conflict agree on one feeling - the conflict will soon end. “It would have ended a long time ago if some people had not earned PR points from the scandal,” says former director Netievsky.
“We have a feeling that the conflict is nearing its end. The team is only interested in the return of the project’s assets and nothing more,” agrees current director Orlov. For the second season in a row, profits from the TV show are being received by a legal entity, shares in which were shared by all current participants of the Ural Dumplings, therefore, it is believed that such corporate conflicts cannot happen.

As for Yulia, she refused to tour. The fact is that she is not yet ready to join one of the groups. At the same time, she will perform on TV shows, as well as in her hometown - Yekaterinburg. Journalists believe that Ural Dumplings broke up because of money. However, the team members deny this. Problems arose due to the lack of a producer. At the moment, the team still exists, but it’s difficult to say what will happen next.
