Sítio do Pica-pau Amarelo (1952 TV series)

It starred actress Lúcia Lambertini (occasionally replaced by Dulce Margarida) in the role of Emília, the living, smart and talkative doll of the farm.

[2] Dona Benta is an old lady who lives far from the big city in Sítio do Picapau Amarelo, the scene of several stories led by her adventurous grandchildren, Pedrinho and Narizinho.

Furthermore, they have the friendship of the Marquis of Rabicó, a greedy and clumsy pig, and the Viscount of Sabugosa, a doll made of corncobs who also came to life and is extremely intelligent.

[3] Between 1955 and 1956, as the original program was broadcast only in São Paulo, TV Tupi produced a version at its headquarters in Rio de Janeiro with a different cast.

The idea was first conceived by Tatiana Belinki's husband, psychiatrist Júlio Gouveia, after he asked some adults, at a children's birthday party, to improvise a stage play version of Peter Pan for their present and bored kids.

He was then hired by the channel and decided to adapt Monteiro Lobato's fantasy series of novels for the teleplay, and the pilot was broadcast live as a single presentation.

The scenes took place mostly in a single fixed setting, the balcony of the farm, since television in Brazil had only existed for a year and resources at the time were still precarious and simple.
