The Sniffer (Russian and UkrainianНюхач) is a Russian-language detective series produced and shot in 
Ukraine by FILM.UA Television, created, co-written, and directed by Artyom Litvinenko.

The show's protagonist (Kirill Käro) uses his unusually sensitive sense of smell, that allows him to detect and distinguish 
trace amounts of various substances, to investigate crimes. He works alongside his childhood buddy, Victor Lebedev 
(Ivan Oganesyan), a major (then colonel) in the Special Bureau of Investigations.[1]

The series premiered on November 11, 2013, on the Ukrainian TV channel ICTV and began airing in Russia on 
December 16, 2013, for 1TV. By 2014, the series is sold in 60 countries and has sold to a major French television channel.[2]
Even before its premiere, the series was officially renewed for a second season with eight new episodes. The second season 
opened on 1TV on October 5, 2015, with cinematography by Graham Frake, who had previously been head of photography 
In 2016, Amazon added the first season to their Amazon Prime line-up.[1]
Starting from May 2017, the first two seasons are streamed on Netflix. The third season is now available as well.
By Jan 31, 2017, filming of the third season was completed. Like the first two seasons, the third season consists of 8 episodes, 
which were shot over the course of 6 months.[3] In season 3, the Sniffer is set to encounter even more sophisticated criminals, 
already aware of his abilities. It is set to air in fall 2017 on Channel One Russia.[4]

     People say they cannot read the subtitles and look at the film at the same time.
    I say "Of course, you can!"
    This is an excellent series with great acting and terrific writing. 
    To miss this because you do not want to read the subtitles is sad. 



There are three seasons of The Sniffer. It is available on Amazon Prime.
