Gato Fedorento - Return To SIC

Return To SIC

After two years in RTP, the quartet formed by Ricardo Araújo Pereira, Tiago Dores, Miguel Góis and Zé Diogo Quintela returned to SIC this October. The terms of the contract, format and duration of the show were not revealed at the presentation of the new line up.

SIC director even welcomed back the group of humorists, José Diogo Quintela considered the return "natural". Since Ricardo Araújo Pereira assured Gato Fedorento would go "where Nuno Santos goes.", "It could be the Parliament channel, but they are already tired of comedy.", he joked.)

At SIC, the crew's first show was named Zé Carlos.

After a few months of Zé Carlos, the crew took a vacation only to return the following year with a mock-news show called "Esmiúça os Sufrágios", where they actually invite and discuss with famous people from Portugal, like José Socrates or Manuela Ferreira Leite. Since its debut on 14 September 2009, it is one of the most viewed shows on Portuguese television. The show changed format again, now it looks like a sort of news studio, with people around the comedians (in live) with Ricardo Araújo Pereira as the presenter, and the rest of the group as commentators.

They left the station in 2010, after The Daily Show based, "Gato Fedorento Esmiúça os Sufrágios", ended.

Famous quotes containing the words return to and/or return:

    To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air: the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.
    Eleonora Duse (1858–1924)

    In my walks I would fain return to my senses.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
