Plot
Um Mundo Catita is a series of 6 episodes inspired by the world and the characters invented by Manuel João Vieira, but also by the great successes of the last years of American HBO. It is not an exaggeration to say that nothing like this has ever been done in Portugal: contrary to what is usual with comedy shows, this series does not feature successive gags or pictures, but tells a story. The story of a bohemian and bankrupt singer (starring Manuel João Vieira) who falls in love with his beautiful dentist, who in turn is engaged to a successful young executive. "Um Mundo Catita" is the story of a bohemian and bankrupt singer (starred by Manuel João Vieira) who falls in love with his beautiful dentist, who in turn is engaged to a successful young executive.

How the Pulse Score works
For series, Pulse starts from the IMDb rating shrunk by vote count, then applies FORMAT CALIBRATION. Series score systematically higher than films on IMDb, so using the raw number would unfairly push a show like Um Mundo Catita to the top of a film catalogue. Calibration maps the series distribution onto the film one; meaning 67 is COMPARABLE to a film with the same Pulse.
One more difference from films: Letterboxd does not track series, so series Pulse derives from a single source (IMDb) rather than two.
