Overview

Chico Anysio starred in this children's series, about eight minutes long, which aired Monday through Friday after the 'Jornal Nacional' news program and before the 8 pm telenovela. In São Paulo, the week's episodes were re-aired all at once on Saturdays. Linguinha was the nickname of Harry Carey do Nascimento, an obedient and studious young man who had a habit of constantly wetting his lips. When the world was threatened, Linguinha transformed into a superhero. No magic words were needed. He simply stuck his tongue out and became Agent Linguinha. A hero who didn't fight, didn't use weapons, and, most importantly, never left home without brushing his teeth, showering, and combing his hair.
