Roger Ebert called movies that were fun to watch but not cinematic masterpieces guilty pleasures. This series is one of those. Maria Bopp is the star and she is fearless. No teasing nudity as in much of the recent U.S. productions and most of the Latin American productions. The first two seasons are the best with the last two seasons lagging. It seems like as they went on, they took themselves more seriously and pursued numerous boring subplots. In the last season, Bopp is not nude in most of the episodes.

The story was covered in "Confessions of a Brazilian Call-girl." Bopp appears much younger than the actress in the movie which made her entry into prostitution more fraught. She leaves what is called a middle-class home and goes directly to a brothel. She almost effortlessly starts servicing any number of men and situations. There is drama at the brothel. Later after she transfers her business to her apartment, there is drama at a sex club she is trying to establish herself in. Later she gets into drugs and is in danger with the gangster she is seeing. In Season 3, she returns for a high school reunion and more drama ensues. All in all I would recommend the first two seasons and portions of the third season.
