El Chapulín Colorado

Fun, happy, stupid, brilliant. This show is a master piece of Roberto Bolaños that created an unique view about life. It is a very smart humoring show with silly scenes and low investiment. It brings renomaded and well know stories alive from a different commedy view. It has the heart of Mexico on it, rich in labguage and referencies, respectful with the audience and educative for kids. Its episodes are out of time which means its perspectives never gets old. You will like it, your kid will like it, your grandson will like it as your parents did amd as they parents as well. Just one word to describe it: brilliant.

Ahead Of Its Time Before All Those Really Bad Parody Movies Even Better Than Austin Powers,One Two And Three,Scary Movie And MegaMind If I Am Being Honest.

I not gonna lie "El Chapulín Colorado" is in his essence a Parody of super heroes, but is so well made and executed they really put their heart in this series the episodes are all great and have a smart humor that even being repetitive it's work.

This tv show is definitely a classic. My parents saw this when they were my age, and I grew up watching "El Chavo" and of course "El Chapulin Colorado".

"El Chapulin Colorado" is a hero who appears every time somebody says "Oh! now who would be able to help me?". It is really funny, he is not the classical super hero (smart, beefy, handsome and very brave) he is rather a comic hero with very good intentions, but a little coward sometimes. The situations where he is involved are very funny, and he will always get away with is even if it is by accident.

If you like "Chespirito" and all his work (which is very good by the way) and you like comedy where you don't have to think over and over to get the joke, you will love this show!

El Chapulín Colorado was and always be one of my favorite TV shows of all time. I remember growing up in Ecuador I used to love this show to death, they used to show it like around noon, when it was recess time from school, I would go home and watch this show while I was having lunch. The character always fascinated me and was like taking a break from amazing superheroes like Batman, Superman and Spiderman. But Chapulín was amazing as well. While he was, like his creator, Roberto Gomez Bolaños describes him, dumb, stupid, ugly, short, clumsy, cowardly, he still had a lot of heart like the shield on his uniform shows, and even though he was scared to death of a possible peril, he would never back down from it and face it. That was true courage. And of course wherever there was a pretty girl, he would never waste any chance to flirt with her. The special effects from this show is what fascinated me as a kid, although cheap to today's standards, it was pretty groundbreaking for it's time on Mexican television. (early to late 70's). This show, along with "El Chavo del Ocho" will always have a place in my heart and in the heart of millions of Latinos around the world. It's the two biggest shows in the history of Spanish television. Highly recommendable if you like classic slapstick humor and if you're a gringo, if you're curious to know who the "Bumblebee Man" is really based on. 10 out of 10.
