TV-3 (also known as TV-3 Russia) is a Russian television channel focused on entertainment. It mainly broadcasts TV series in mystery, science fiction and fantasy genres. It was purchased in 2006 by Vladimir Potanin's ProfMedia (ПрофМедиа),[1] which in turn was purchased by the Russian natural gas giant Gazprom and placed in its Gazprom Media division in December 2013.[2][3]

TV-3 has been accused of propaganda of superstition and esoterism, including showing of films made of statements of scientists taken out of context that made it look like the scientists were talking to the TV-3 presenter.[4] In 2015, it was nominated for "the most harmful pseudoscientific project (for spreading of myths, delusions and superstitions)" antiprize of a state prize of the Ministry of Education and Science; the prize was, however, awarded to REN TV's conspirological documentaries.[5][6]

March 2015 - the channel becomes part of the sub-holding "Gazprom-Media Entertainment Television" (GPM RTV), its office began to be located in the building of the business center "Diamond Hall", together with the headquarters of the TV channels "TNT", "2x2" and "Friday !”.[7][8]

On 26 January 2016, TV-3 hosted the Russian premiere of the tenth, and on 4 January 2018, the eleventh season of the cult American television series The X-Files.[9]

In 2023, the network purchased distribution rights to Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, which were previously owned by Disney in Russia but were sold off due to the company’s pause in the market and the shut down of Disney Channel Russia.
