Thanks for sharing this one. Interesting use of pies when a blindfold would've worked (but pies are great so let's never turn them down!). Of all the cosplay it's really nice to see She-Ra get pied!
2) I didn't catch the Muppets, but I rarely listen to the audio with these foreign clips.
1) Pretty simple and ingenious for pie lovers (which is probably why we'll never see this repeated): Instead of pieing the loser, BOTH contestants get pied right away and can't wipe it off. They have to answer the question by "finding" the mic blind while still pied and then answering into it. So basically, there's none of the frustration of "that hot girl answered correctly and stayed clean." Both contestants WILL get pied, and there WILL be good coverage because they can't wipe.
The full episode did keep going to include the last couple hotties, so I'll try to edit and upload that when I have time. (Not tomorrow.) Also from checking other episodes of this show, most of the women are "dancers" and wear WAAAAY less clothing when not doing cosplay. They really need to make this a regular game. (They won't.)
For anyone who can't wait to see the full pie game, here's a very low-res version to tide you over til Rich uploads a no-doubt-much-better-resolution copy:
Yes, the quality is video quality of this is complete crap, but there are compensations: you get to see three or four more superheroines pied than in the edited clip posted above, and that even includes the cute blonde hostess who's dressed as Batgirl!
Here is the genius of this game, at least from our/my perspective:
- Everyone is automatically pied. Obviously, wonderful - They are not allowed to wipe - After pied they just sit there waiting, very nice - They then need to find the microphone, which means they will struggle to see, without wiping, which is pie perfection when done right, at least for me
So great scene. A shame we won't likely ever see it in higher quality, but I'll take what I can get
Haha, the version I tracked down is 480p, but it looks quite a bit better than the others. I might upload it in classic Rogerio fashion. We shall see.
It is a genius idea for a pie game. There's only one way to screw it up (which they did with Wonder Woman), and that's to give preferential treatment to someone. (Pieing the boobs actually does NOT affect your vision, Fake Hugh Grant Host.)
This show doesn't appear to borrow from other Brazilian gameshows or impact them at all, so it's doubtful we see this setup repeated. I'd love to see this show do it again, but their last pie bit was... Over a year ago? So again, doubtful.
Never fear, Rich is here. All clips uploaded in 720p (not 360p) for true widescreen, although since my original source was downgraded to 480p, these won't be "true" HD. They do look a bit sharper than standard 480p though. All clips titled according to the now-mandatory Brazilian Messy Clip Filing System. Obviously.
Love you, too
