There's usually a free livestream on YouTube. Search "SBT Ao Vivo". You can watch from the U.S. without a VPN. The games typically begin 11:15am Eastern time.
The women received five pies in total. All three of the women received at least one pie. The men received six. The contraption threw every pie accurately. If they were to bring back the original pies then this would be the best version of PoR in many years.

LOL.... I've ALWAYS been a fan of the "Brazilian formula" of pies. As you can see from the CM compilation above, it's the main reason those Chega clips still hold up. (And why we put up with the endless rivers of bullshit from the male cast members, particularly Curly Sue and the twins.) It's also the main reason we've been putting up with all of Domingo Legal's bullshit for years now too.... because on the rare occasion when a female is actually pied well with aftermath, it's typically epic.
But spray whip cream on a plate? With the paper plate sticking to the face half the time so there's zero aftermath? That's just poor. I'm glad PoR is finally bringing back women under 50, and returning to gender equality in the process, but the new pies ruin the best part of the show. Melon Woman took some epic hits with the "old" pies, and she was game last week, but the new formula let her down. If and when the YouTube channel ever decides to put up yesterday's game, I suspect it'll be the same old thing.
Here's an example of Muhler (and other women) getting pied with the old formula. You MUST be able to notice the difference, right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6f64ZHtJjo
They'll bring back the quality pies when the virus is history.
However, they'll also bring back 80% male teams, old women, kiddies, goofball comedians, dwarfs, mummies and pies thrown by humans at a 25% accuracy rate.

Yeah, just busting chops (I do that now, ask anyone). I can't help but appreciate that the catapult seems to be 90% accurate (and the misses were early, so more like 100% now). After years of seeing misfires on WWYD and even recently - Fallon and Noches were better, but more like 75%.
Something about the catapult throw is just different/cool, but it's a double-edged sword, since I would imagine it makes it tougher to use the "brazil formula", which requires a bit of push/rub moreso than a throw.
Worse pies for sure, but different/sometimes better delivery
The old pies were the best PERIOD, in fact best in HISTORY. I like that when they wipe it off, the pie was still on their facing. Hate pies where once wiped it's totally gone.
I don't even want to know how Dumb (or is it Dumber?) ended up on PoR. Maybe he's an under 60 "comedic" replacement for BigNose. In any case, they're really scraping the bottom of the "talent" barrel.
If he slips and falls to the ground and gets buried under a mountain of pies how will I know I'm not just having a CM flashback?
Does this mean that Curly might be on in coming weeks?
Update: It appears that Dumb was a contestant on the Brasilian program Big Brother. I believe Big Brother is on the same channel as Domingo Legal. Therefore, he'll probably become a regular player on PoR. 2020 really hates us. Too bad BB didn't have Barbara on instead.
Update 2: Curly is selling Ovaltine on his Instagram.

No, it isn't. DL is broadcasted by SBT. Big Brother is broadcasted by Globo TV.
The teams were 3 males versus 3 females (a recurring pattern).
One of the women was a cute brunette (20-25). The other was an attractive strawberry blonde (25-30). The third was a frumpy 40 something. (I'm assuming all are actually women and I'm guessing their ages, I didn't have time to research).
The cute brunette took 2 pies with a few seconds of aftermath. The strawberry blonde took 1 pie. The frumpy lady took 2 or 3.
Again, the pie machine was 100% accurate.
The pies are still crappy.
This seems to be the show until corona is gone.
Update: the cute brunette is Cinthia Cruz born July 3, 2000.

Today's episode was fine for me. The way that the brunette opened her mouth, so as the dress and the earrings she used to get pied were great. It was also nice to see the blonde being pied, with her red lips appearing beside the cream, so as the way she shaked her arms. Good show today.
criticism unwarranted said: RT: I thought all the players on PoR were affiliated with SBT. Why would Dumb be invited if he's from Globo?
If they accept players from other television channels then why do they have the same horrible people week after week?
1) I don't know if he's still from Globo(I don't know exactly his name, so I can't check that). But, nowadays, Globo TV isn't mantaining in their cast artists who aren't in any show. They only keep hired who are currently working for them. 2) Yes, SBT always accepted participants from other TV stations in all their attractions. This frequently happens. Probably, the repetition of the contestants on PoR is for promote SBT attractions(as it was done today). And, possibly, if they call people from other TV stations, they may spent more money with paychecks.
Terrible pie formula + terrible game setup is always gonna bring bad results. I'm not sure why "pies always hit their target" is a positive. That annoying Hasbro game accomplishes the same thing, but if the pies suck, it doesn't really matter.
Anyway, every week of this makes me miss Chega Mais even more. As I said at the time, it wasted TONS of potential every week, but it was still miles beyond any comparable show, and I knew we'd miss it when it was over. Boy, did we ever....
Hopefully Brazil follows the arc of the rest of the world (minus the USA) and drops its cases back to nothing so they can get back to the normal game, not that it's much better...
This Sunday (July 12th) the game appears to be three men versus a team of two men and two women. Three on four doesn't make sense but that's what I think the SBT web site says. We'll have to wait and see.
One of the women is approximately 30 and the other is 19 or 20 (according to my research).
The 19/20 year old woman received three pies with a few seconds of post-pie camera time.
The 30 year old woman received one pie. She shielded her hair with a towel during the launch. They don't need to invite her back. She's a stick in the mud.
Curly crashed the show and threw 30 pies at himself. I made that up.
There was just one woman (pleasant looking, 30 something) and five dudes today. It looks like Celso is trying to pull the game back in the direction of "comedy".
However, there was a bright spot.
The woman lost 6 out of 6 times -- probably a record. And the machine nailed her thoroughly each round.
Unlike most of the women they've booked recently she was happy and enthusiastic each time she stepped to the machine.
If they were using the old pies it might have been a top 20 classic.

She's 21 years old. I was watching PoR on TV, but I had to turn off the TV before the pie segment.
Now I'll have to wait to see it on YouTube... If it was as you said, it will deal...
Doesn't matter whether I have a WAM fetish or not, and speaking generally, not about PoR, there is simply NO point to throwing pies at ANYBODY covered in plastic & wearing goggles. That really IS a waste of food.
Why not have people sit in their cars while some clown throws pies at their windshield?
RT: I was only off by 9 something years. lol. I never would've guessed 21. I still can't tell if she's white or an asian who dyes her hair blonde.
Zoidberg: The only people on stage wearing masks and face guards are the towel girls. So there's zero chance they're gonna get hit with a pie. I think all the players are instructed -- absolutely no chicanery.
