Viewers have been trying to find an answer for several years.
The series “Smeshariki” began to appear on domestic television in 2004. Over the years of broadcasting, many adventures have happened to the heroes, and the army of fans is only increasing. At the same time, the main secret of the cartoon remained unrevealed.
The fact is that in the first few episodes, viewers hear the pleasant voice of the narrator. The off-screen hero explains what will happen to the heroes in the next series, and at the end he shares his philosophical reasoning. Fans did not hide their love for the narrator, but after a few episodes, he suddenly disappeared from the series.
Fans for a long time could not understand what happened to the mysterious hero and why the series does not end with the usual reasoning. The audience built many theories, but they were all far from the truth. As it turned out, the narrator, artist Igor Dmitriev, died on January 25, 2008 after a long illness. He managed to take part in only a few series, and after his death, the creators decided not to hire a new one.
As a result, Smeshariki were left without a voiceover, and the producers preferred not to replace Dmitriev with another artist.
