Globo’s ‘Três Graças’ Debuts to Strong Buzz as Arminda Memes Flourish and Belo Faces Critique

The rollout blends intimate family stakes with a public‑health corruption arc, prompting raves for the leads alongside criticism of Belo’s debut.

Overview

  • Premiering Oct. 20–21 in the 9 p.m. slot, the Aguinaldo Silva drama introduces three generations of women and marks the author’s return to TV Globo.
  • The early chapters establish Joélly’s teenage pregnancy, Lígia’s worsening illness, and a scheme tied to Fundação Ferette’s falsified medicines.
  • A key prop—an in‑universe ‘Três Graças’ sculpture—hides cash linked to the fraud and was built as a 1.80‑meter resin piece at Estúdios Globo.
  • Social media and entertainment press praised Sophie Charlotte, Dira Paes and Grazi Massafera, with Massafera’s villain Arminda quickly becoming a meme.
  • Belo’s turn as Misael drew negative online reviews after his first scenes, while coverage also noted Xamã’s strong reception; the show airs earlier Wednesday due to Flamengo vs. Racing, and the author teased classic staircase melodrama on social media.
