Datafolha Finds Viewers Prefer Non‑Lethal Punishment for Odete as Vale Tudo Enters October Endgame

The new survey marks a sharp turn from 1988, when far more viewers wanted the character killed.

Overview

  • Datafolha reports that 47% of viewers want Odete punished through poverty and 35% favor prison, while only 4% support her death, based on a Sept. 8–9 survey of 2,005 people with a ±2 percentage point margin of error.
  • Overall reception remains strong, with 65% rating the remake as good or great, and the audience skews toward women, Black viewers and social classes D and E, according to the poll.
  • Recent chapters have intensified the drama with higher stakes and new threats, setting up a high‑tension stretch without revealing key twists.
  • Entertainment outlets say a pivotal early‑October chapter will trigger an investigation‑driven arc with a broad pool of suspects, though plot specifics remain unconfirmed.
  • Production has tightened anti‑leak measures as coverage cites an Oct. 17 final episode date reported by entertainment press.
