Blame It On Lisa

Episode details

Short description

References to Brazilan things

• A blonde host is shown running a kid's show on TV, a reference to the Brazilian Xuxa. Xuxa is also mentioned in another episode, incorrectly, by the name of Shoe-ja.
• A sign seen on top of an all-you-can-eat meat-on-swords restaurant, called Churrascaria in portuguese. Note: in the episode, the word is mistakingly used in the plural, Churrascarias.
• The saying Aeroporto International de Galeo is a misspelled reference to Rio's international airport, Antonio Carlos Jobim (a.k.a. Aeroporto Interna'cional do' Galeo)
• The orphanage is called "Orfanato dos Anjos Imundos", or "Filthy Angels Orphanage."
• At one point, Marge and Lisa go to a Samba School. Inside, they are practicing a dance that resembles tango, while the teacher, with a clear hispanic (and, therefore, inaccurate) accent claims that Brazilians had been the inventors of the lambada and the Macarena. Whereas this is true in the first case, the Macarena is a dance as alien to Brazil as it would be, for example, to the United States. It was a song composed in Mexico, not a style of dance.
• The hotels where the Simpsons stay while in Rio is called "Rio Days-inn ero", a sound parody of Rio de Janeiro.
