Fisher (Russian: Фишер) is a Russian thriller television series. The project was produced by Art Pictures Vision in association with Studio 812 for NMG Studio.

The plot of the first season is based on real events—"Fisher" was the nickname of Sergey Golovkin, a serial killer who operated in the Odintsovsky District of Moscow Oblast between 1986 and 1992.[1] The basis for the second season has not been officially revealed by the creators, though theories suggest cases such as the Gabidullin brothers[2] or Sergey Chorny.

The first season premiered on 8 February 2023 on the streaming platforms more.tv and Wink. The second season premiered on 29 May 2025 on Wink.

Season 1

In 1986, the bodies of brutally murdered teenagers are found in a forest belt near the Rublyovskoye Highway in Moscow. A team consisting of experienced investigators—Valery Kozyrev from Moscow and Evgeny Bokov from Rostov-on-Don—and young investigator Natalya Dobrovolskaya, investigate a series of murders that will change their lives forever. They are assisted by the only witness, a schoolboy named Igor.

Season 2

A child goes missing in a resort town in southern Russia. His mother delivers a note to Evgeny Bokov asking for help with the investigation. It soon becomes clear that kidnapping is only the beginning: a psychopathic killer is operating in the city, sophisticatedly murdering young women.
