Faktor A (Russian: Фактор А) is the second Russian version of The X Factor television talent show franchise. Having broadcast on Rossiya 1 from 2011 to 2013, the show is named Faktor A (rather than Faktor X), with the letter "A" chosen in honor of Alla Pugacheva, head of the jury. Faktor A debuted in 2011 as a new season 1.
Sekret Uspekha (2005, 2007)
Faktor A is considered a continuation of an earlier Russian show Sekret Uspekha, which was broadcast on Russia's RTR television station in contrast to Faktor A, courtesy of Russia-1.
There were two seasons of Sekret Uspekha. The first was in 2005 and the title was won by Vladimir Sapovsky. A second season was broadcast in 2007, and the title won by Nikolay Timokhin. The show was cancelled after two seasons because of the insufficient number of viewers.
Although similar in format, the new show Faktor A was considered a whole new series with season 1 starting in April 2011.
