The logo of the channel is stylized with a combination of Cyrillic letters С and Т that looks like the hammer and sickle (☭) turned in the opposite direction to the right.

One of its main presentations is a talk show "Born in the USSR" (Russian: Рождённые в СССР; Rozhdyonnye v SSSR) which provides a daily interactive discussion with its spectators.[1]
