The long Boa noite greeting from Brazilian TV host Ratinho, stretched out in his enthusiastic style for funny introductions, memes and WhatsApp audio clips.

This is the extended version of Ratinho's famous Boa noite greeting, delivered in the Brazilian presenter's loud, drawn-out, theatrical voice as he opens his nightly show. Instead of a quick hello, he stretches the two Portuguese words into a playful, almost musical call that rises, holds and lands with a grin you can hear. It instantly signals a Brazilian television moment, full of energy and humour, and it works because listeners recognise the host's larger-than-life personality even without seeing him. Played at full volume, it feels like a warm, over-the-top welcome that turns an ordinary greeting into a joke in itself.

Ratinho, the stage name of Brazilian presenter Carlos Massa, opens his long-running SBT variety show Programa do Ratinho with an energetic Boa noite, and the extended take has become a favourite clip shared as a meme and WhatsApp audio in Brazil. Because the greeting is instantly recognisable even out of context, creators reuse it to parody television presentation, greet an audience ironically or start a joke with a familiar Brazilian pop-culture reference. Its length makes it especially useful for introductions, since the drawn-out delivery builds anticipation before the main content begins.

Pro Tip for Usage

Content generated with AI assistance

Drop the full greeting just before a reveal or guest entrance, and let it finish before any dialogue starts so its build-up creates the joke. Pair it with a simple zoom or shocked reaction shot, and never cut it short.
