This is one of the most successful TV formats of the Public Portuguese Television and fully recorded in the studios of Porto.
The square of joy is a prime example of longevity of the Portuguese public television, and although I am not the target audience for this program, I believe is a well made product. The fact that it is on the air during the morning, ensures the audience of a senior public who watches the various proposals presented over the show.
Presenters, Jorge Gabriel and Sonia Araujo are nice and extraordinary enchanting what is expected of a program with that format, live, that entertains without offending. There is also a caution of the production to promote in various items, the Portuguese. They don't limit their approach only by broadcasting the traditional image of Portugal, there is also a care in talking about the several regions and their current players.
The only heading I like to see is the Telerural. The Quim & Zé Estacionâncio are the best pair of presenters in the country. It is one of the funniest sketches from television. The text used by this duo is simply delightful , there's a genuine caution in the use of idioms used in northern Portugal, the "dolls" are the best, and almost forgetting my favorite part, the weather! The boys already had their on program in the past, but for some reason was cancelled. Hopefully back soon, but there is always an added pleasure to see the best of comedy at the national level.
However, as all television programs that fight for audiences, in the end of the program they talk about the faidivers swarming the national news agenda. I'm talking about the approach of the crimes that are the focus of attention by the media, but unlike some channels they do not fall into the realm of pure speculation in the discussions, as we often see. These themes are always approached in a measured and a range of commentators are generally licensed in those fields. The fact is that as a television product whether we like it or not, works in full and the result is obvious.
