Why Brazil? Boring, right?
Let me tell you: The episode in the 15th season, 13th show, titled "Blame It On Lisa" is the sole reason for the segment. The writers of this episode were threatened by the Brazil Tourist Bureau...

My problem with the Brazilian items is that they are not spectacular. The fact that they are creating a "poor part of the city" with the Brazilian items is not fair anyway. They should have concentrated on the colorful, merry carnevals, or beach items. I was hoping they would give the Christ statue of Rio for sky credits, not for donuts (after they gave us the Fuji and the Eiffel tower, it wasn't impossible).
The better stuff are available for donuts, and even those are mediocre. So many are left out of the Brazilian event. A few painted houses, a decrepit soccer court, a bar and some trees won't scream Brazil for me. The Japanese part of my town is beautiful, and so is the French one. The Brazilian one is meh. No one would ever say "Hey! That's from Brazil!"
My solution is to create a colorful beach area from those items and focus on the Japanese items, which I can't get enough of. :)
So my personal opinion is that the Brazilian event is a big miss. Too bad.
