Controversy
A sequence of this episode that parodies the opening of Friends caused controversy. The satire, titled "Christians", lampooning stereotypes involving religion, as the payment of tithes and gospel teachings.[4] On final scene, the cast members sing the song "Pago o dízimo/10% para o pastor" (parody to the chorus "I'll be there for you / when the rain starts to pour").[5] The parody was met with negative criticism from the Evangelical Protestants public, which felt "offended" and "angry" on social networks.[6][7][8][9] In response, Marcius Melhem, in an interview to Universo Online (UOL), said he did not believe the negative comments are representative to the evangelical public in general. "We joke with all religions. We joke, not offended," he added.[10]
