"Samantha!": Emanuelle Araújo saves her own childhood and takes "mix of references from the 80's" to a new series | Pop and Art

The first Brazilian comedy of Netflix shows the folly of celebrity that a former child star who has not gone beyond this time can do. The series of seven episodes begins on July 6th.

The series shows the innumerable attempts of Samantha, experienced by Emanuelle, to return to the fame that he had when he was the leader of Turminha Plimpom.

The series brings several points of contact with the Brazilian television, not only by flashbacks with all the colors and brightness present in the programs, but also by the participation of Gretchen.

The digital age is also well represented by Daniel Furlan, who has imposed himself in social networks with the program "Shock of Culture", in the role of the producer of the singer.

Douglas Silva saw Dodi, the husband of Samantha, a former Bohemian footballer who has been imprisoned for many years and is now returning home. Already the children are very mature and seem to make more sense than parents: Cindy is a vegan feminine teenager and Brandon is an intellectual child, who dreams of writing his autobiography.

Lorena Comparato is already Laila, a new digital influencer who reports to Dodoi. Despite a smaller number of followers in the social network in real life, she considers herself a digital influencer, but not her profession.

In the old version of the trio, the audience will see the familiar face of Dona Hermínia's son of "My mother is a party", which is now in "Samantha!" like Tico, one of the Turminha singers. Rodrigo Pandolfo quotes Mara Maravilha, Chacrinha, Joy Train and Magic Balloon as references to his childhood, but for this character, he says that he has not had a single inspiration.

Each member of the group, Bolota, another trio singer, at the show's helper, has psychological problems caused by Samantha, whom she believes to be the most important person in the world.

This is another point where the theme of relentless pursuit of success is discussed. "The series brings this reflection on a child, in fact, three children, who were stars and nowadays, 20 years and a few years later, as they are?" Says Pandolfo.
