Cavalo Amarelo

1980 TV Show Soap Drama Comedy

The irreverent Dulcinéa struggles to keep her revue theater, *Mambembe*, afloat; the building itself belongs to the traditional Maldonado family. The patriarch, Salvador Maldonado—a conservative man—keeps a tight rein on the clan, maintaining control over both the business and his children: Joana, an elegant and snobbish woman who is the staunchest defender of the views held by Pops, as the children call him; Téo, who has always silently submitted to the old man's high-handedness; Walter, dominated by his older sister and his father's favorite; and Lalucha, the youngest, a film student who challenges the status quo and rebels against the family's stuffy conservatism.

Casseta & Planeta is a Brazilian group of comedians who run a TV show named Casseta & Planeta Urgente, broadcast by Rede Globo. The humour featured on the show is mostly satirical, relating to religious or ethical groups, and minorities. The group founded a company called Toviassu Produções Artísticas, whose name is an acronym composed of syllables from the phrase "Todo viado é surdo" – "Every gay is deaf"; which is the ending of a widely known Brazilian practical joke. Each one of the seven members has a specific function within the company. They present their TV show at Rede Globo and publish a website and many books, among other products, for example the "Machobol". Originally a magazine named Casseta Popular and a humour newspaper called O Planeta Diário, the two teams joined forces and were hired by Rede Globo to become writers for the network's comedy shows, starting with TV Pirata in 1988. A few years later, they starred in their own show.

The traditional Taques Penteado clan is intimately linked to the history of São Paulo itself and is considered a significant representative of the São Paulo business world. Ill, Cândido Taques, brother of the matriarch Guilhermina Taques Penteado, lived isolated from everyone on the third floor of the family mansion in the elegant Jardim Europa neighborhood. Cândido's death puts the clan members on alert, awaiting his inheritance: a large fortune in cash, jewels, and stocks. The dispute over the inheritance, in an environment dominated by Guilhermina, and the game of interests among heirs unleash several conflicts, generating an atmosphere of oppression. The characters reveal themselves through their greater or lesser commitment to gaining access to the fortune. Some show no scruples whatsoever in obtaining it, while others, more skillful and diplomatic, resort to less petty means: they seek, for example, to take advantage of a close relationship with the matriarch.
