In 2005 they produced a "Soap Opera" called "O Proxeneta", a history about a bussinesmen called Franco Faraco who owned a toilet company who was hit by a car driven by a Man with Black Boots and gets into a coma. The show was more about the people who knew Faraco. Later in the same year they've done another Soap called "Sinha Boça" who tells the history of one of the most loved character of the sketchs show, he is an ordinary guy who goes to college and gets arrested because his rival incriminates him.In 2007 they starded a new show: "Tela Class", in which they redub old trash and B-movies, creating a new script under it, always using loads of curse words and sarcasm... one of the episodes even got censured by MTV Brazil, due to its raw humor...Now (2008) they've returned to the sketches, doing a Matrix parody wicht their sketches are made only in their head on computer program.
