A Brazilian Series that has been airing since 2015.

I. Sinopsis
In the middle of the night, a young black couple pull up at the entrance to an elegant mansion in an upper-class neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro. Excitedly, they walk through the empty building into the garden and jump into the swimming pool. Their laughter wakes a white woman living next door.
Immediately, she grabs her binoculars. “Thieves,” she cries, and orders her sleepy husband to call security. But it turns out that – as far the twitchy neighbour is concerned – the couple are much worse than trespassers: they are the new owners. So begins Mister Brau, a new musical sitcom on Globo, Brazil’s dominant television network, whose central conceit is the culture clash between a black nouveau-riche pop star duo and their snobbish white neighbours.1
