Besides being known for his talk shows, Silvio Santos had a special connection with young audiences and children. He believed that television played a crucial role in children's development and entertainment. One of his most memorable quotes reflects this concern:
"SBT won't stop showing cartoons, no. I don't care if I'm losing money in the mornings because for me, showing cartoons is an obligation to children. SBT isn't here just to make money; it has other things involved."
It is worth remembering that animes known by many gained prominence on the channel, among them are: Dragon Ball, Fly, The Little Warrior, Magic Knights Rayearth, Street Fighter II V, among others.

Ultimately, he leaves a huge void in Brazilian television, but also an example of dedication and love for what he did. May he rest in peace.
