There can hardly be at least one person who has not heard anything about Brazilian series. Their list looks quite impressive, especially if we take into account the fact that during the late nineties and early 2000s they were shown on television almost without interruption. As soon as one “soapy” story ended, another immediately began. The viewer was pleased and happy: new characters, events, positive impressions. Many viewers noted this phenomenon: during the broadcast of Latin American TV shows, they got used to specific heroes and worried about all those incidents that happened to them.
In the life of every modern person, Brazilian series have firmly entered. The list of "soap" stories is so large that there is no way to list them all. It all started back in 1992, when the famous series “The Rich Cry, too,” appeared on television screens. And although he is not at all Brazilian, but Mexican, it was this telenovela that marked the beginning of a great Latin American history.
What determines the popularity?
Why do people love Brazilian TV shows? The list goes on and on: “Slave Isaur”, “Just Mary”, “Wild Rose”, “Fatal Inheritance”, “Secret of the Tropicanka”. Our Russian compatriots liked this genre.
It is also necessary to take into account the time of the appearance of fascinating stories: the transitional period accompanying the collapse of the Soviet Union and the formation of a new Russia. In these difficult moments, when the word "stability" ceased to exist, many began to become attached to something exciting, able to quickly catch attention, whether it was reading ironic detectives authored by Daria Dontsova or sitting for many hours in front of the TV.
People needed new positive impressions because of the need to distract from oppressive experiences. Many, especially women, found solace in watching TV shows. If you currently want to nostalgia, then the Brazilian TV shows of the 90s may well be suitable as material. Their list is practically unlimited.
The question of the seriousness of the genre
It is believed that "soap" stories can only be of interest to very near-minded people. Allegedly, various telenovelas that cause tears and feelings can only be watched by housewives who have nothing to occupy with their imagination. In fact, the Brazilian TV series of the 90s, the list of which is truly inexhaustible, is able to offer viewers a truly high-quality product.
