Hosted by Fernanda Souza, Smother-in-Law brings together six couples and one mother-in-law from each family on a stunning tropical beach, where they face challenges and life-changing experiences while competing for a grand cash prize. The twist comes when they discover that each son- or daughter-in-law must team up with their own mother-in-law, while their spouses watch the entire competition from an isolated bunker.
Floresta took over production of the format beginning with its second season and is currently in post-production on the fourth season, which will feature Brazilian celebrities. A standout performer in both viewership and audience engagement, Season 2 entered Netflix’s Global Top 10 for Non-English TV Series in its debut week. The show’s success and production excellence earned it the Best Competition/Talent Reality Show award at the 2022 Produ Awards.
Alongside its critical and audience acclaim, Smother-in-Law was selected for Embratur’s international audiovisual tourism guide, Come to Brazil with Netflix, with its breathtaking filming locations—such as Coruripe, Alagoas—serving as an official showcase of Brazil and helping attract visitors from around the world.
