Pânico na TV (English: Panic on TV) was a Brazilian comedy program shown on RedeTV! on Sundays. It's the television version of the original radio program called Pânico. After its debut on TV (September 28, 2003), the program has become famous throughout Brazil. The show moved to Rede Bandeirantes in 2012 as Pânico na Band, staying on air until its cancellation in 2017.

The program Pânico on the Radio has existed since 1993 on Jovem Pan. The idea of doing a different program came about from the owner of the Jovem Pan radio station Antonio Augusto Amaral de Carvalho, known as Tuta. He thought about doing a radio program inspired by the American broadcaster Howard Stern, and thus created Pragrama Radio Pânico, presented by Emilio Surita 10 years later after its great success with the radio audience estimated at seventeen million listeners, divided among 749 municipalities, which created the program Pânico na TV.

Recurring Crew Members

A large number of actors participated in the show.

Rodrigo Pereira - Satirized Amy Winehouse, in the former framework Momento Amy Winehouse
Robinho - A midget called Nestor and dressed as the soccer player Robinho. Merchan Neves (Carlos Alberto da Silva) used to slap his head and scream "Pedala Robinho!!". The catchphrase became a national phenomenon.
Tevez - Another midget, José, dressed as the Argentine soccer player Carlos Tevez. Merchan Neves used to slap his head and scream "Samba Tevez!!!". Like "Pedala Robinho", "Samba Tevez" became a phenomenon.
Homem-Grito - Tyson, a fat black man, assumes the name of Homem-Grito ("The Scream Man"). Tyson loudly screams in people's ears. He is also known as Makelele, and sometimes participates painted all in silver in the sketch of "Amaury Dumbo" alongside César Polvilho and Carioca.
Amanda Ramalho - Participates only on the Radio Show. She's a thin, depressed and sarcastic young girl. She loves to criticize everyone at every opportunity.
Vesgo and Silvio - Maybe the most popular segment of the show in which the couple of celebrity reporters Vesgo (Rodrigo Scarpa) and Sílvio Santos (Wellington Muniz) enter (usually, without invitation) celebrity parties and assorted events to interview the famous or wannabes, to ask funny question about them.

One of the show's trademarks, the Crab Dance, was created in this sketch.

Dramaturgy Pânico - In this sketch, Bola (Marcos Chiesa), Eduardo Sterblitch and Bolinha interprets famous artists dramatizing some odd (and usually painful) famous TV scenes and movie scenes like Avatar, Saw, X-Men and others of varied styles.
Jô Suado - Parody of the program Jô Soares, played by Márvio Lúcio. In the program, Jô interviews various celebrities, interacts with the waiter Arex (Marcelo Harada), tells jokes sent to the Twitter of the program and still gets a musical guest. The segment is full of puns on the names of the artists concerned and the end is made a play on the catchphrase "Kiss from the Fat", ending the segment. There is the sextet in the frame, being replaced by a pianist, though occasionally an actor dressed as Bira be seen in the segment.

Panicats

The show has on the stage during all the skits and segments a group of women dressed in bikinis and dancing. Some famous Panicats are:

Controversy and criticism

Since its inception the program has collected controversy, frequently because of jokes of bad taste and its emphasis on half-naked women, called "stage assistants". For the latter, the program was struck with a lawsuit that forbade it from going on air at its initial timeslot (6 p.m., being pushed to 8 p.m. instead). Other lawsuits include the famous actresses Luana Piovani and Carolina Dieckmann.
Brazilian soap opera actor Victor Fasano struck a violent blow on reporter Vesgo (Rodrigo Scarpa) after the latter made a pun with the actor's name, saying "it was while since they met." Scarpa was also punched by singer Netinho de Paula after a similar encounter.
The Ministry of Justice reclassified the program as not suitable for people under 12, after a controversy involving Sabrina Sato, who had been expelled from the group in 2007 due to the reclassification. By law, the show could not be broadcast on television before 8 p.m. on any day of the week. In 2009, the program suffered an even higher censorship, when it was reclassified as not suitable for people under 14 and should be broadcast after 9:00 p.m.
In 2009, RecordTV and SBT fought a long war for celebrities. The dispute started when Record began to negotiate the hiring of Gugu Liberato, host of Domingo Legal. In retaliation, SBT hired 11 professionals at the Barra Funda station, among them, the entrepreneur and presenter Roberto Justus and presenter Eliana. Panico took advantage of the situation and decided to prank other stars. The prank would be applied by Wellington Muniz (as Silvio Santos), who would try to hire these professionals by phone. On this list were Théo Becker (actor), Paulo Henrique Amorim (journalist), Ana Maria Braga and Jô Soares (both presenters on Rede Globo). Ana Maria discovered the scam and wisely decided to successfully prevent the airing of her hazing. Rede Globo requested clarification of the presenter in the scam.
On October 28, 2009, a member of Panico, Marcos da Silva Heredia (Zina), was arrested for possession of cocaine. The comedian was released the same day.
On January 16, 2010, Marcos da Silva Heredia was re-arrested for illegal possession of a firearm.

Still referring to the table The Impostor, the mission titled Attack of the Mosquitos (which had to inform all participants of the updates, such as the death of Michael Jackson, the departure of Gugu to Record and Roberto Justus and Eliana to SBT), Daniel Zukerman tried to storm the studios of "Farm", on Rede Record, Itu (SP). In the first attempt (by land), Daniel tried to enter through the main gate of the studio fooling the guards, but one of the guards recognized him and called the police.
