Bento Ribeiro was approved in his VJ test but instead was hired for a Rede Globo soap opera. The project waited until he finished his soap opera work.
'Dani Calabresa' (Daniela Giustti) is one of the most known stand-up comedians in Brazil and is married to Marcelo Adnet, another Brazilian comedy star.
The project name was "Casal Jornal" ("News Couple"). Head writer and co-creator Bruno Motta came with "Furo MTV" once he joined the crew.
