Streets of Broken Lights (Russian: Улицы разбитых фонарей, romanized: Ulitsy razbitykh fonarey) is a Russian criminal drama-detective TV series anthology about police work in Saint-Petersburg. The pilot episode, known as Menty (Russian: Менты, literally "Cops") premiered in 1995, while the initial series ran for 16 nonconsecutive seasons from 1998 to 2019, with 500 episodes released overall and making it the longest crime series in Russia.[1][2] The series eventually spun off another show, Deadly Force (2000—2005), that featured several characters from the original show.
