On January 28, 2013, comedian Marcelo Adnet is hired by TV Globo, after leaving the MTV Brasil.[3][4]
His first program, O Dentista Mascarado,[5][6] created by Fernanda Young and Alexandre Machado, had low ratings, which resulted in its cancellation after 12 episodes.[7] After the end of the program, Adnet was added to the cast of Fantástico, producing parody and entertainment blocks.[8][9] However, he eventually left the program later.[10][11]
Later, TV Globo asked Marcius Melhem,[12] who had just finished Os Caras de Pau, produces a comedy show starring Adnet.[13] Melhem created a sketches program, but with a different style from the other programs of this format in Brazil,[2] very similar to TV Pirata, satirical series that made a success on TV Globo in the 1980s.
