What happens

Ciao, 2020! is the New Year's edition of the Evening Urgant program, which aired on Channel One on 30 December 2020. The release parodies holiday concerts of 1980s Italian pop music and traditions of Soviets, and later Little Blue Light (airing on rival VGTRK). All participants in the program, presenters and performers, have stylized Italian names and pseudonyms. Although the show's language is Italian, it has Russian subtitles. The YouTube version of the show has been featured in many Italian media outlets. In four days, the video had been viewed 4.5 million times. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
