The meme has been used to mock idiotic attitudes or remarks.[[/labelnote]]

** "Definitivamente es barriga, Señor Cine". [[labelnote:Explanation]]Essentially the Spanish translation of the "This is cinema" meme, it's accompanied with a screencap of Don Ramón smoking, as well as his usual AccidentalMisnaming of El Señor Barriga (essentially "This is belly, Mr. Cinema").[[/labelnote]]

* {{Squick}}: In the end of the 1974 version of Quico's SickEpisode, Chavo throws all of Quico's medicine out the window at the latter's request. Don Ramón was lying unconscious under the window, so he ended up accidentally drinking everything Chavo was throwing out the window as well. In the last scene, Quico tells Chavo "You were supposed to throw away only the medicine... ''not the urine exams as well!''". Don Ramón passes out again after hearing this.

** Carlos Villagrán and Florinda Meza ''did'' have a RomanceOnTheSet, as confirmed in an interview by Villagrán. Go watch their characters' scenes as [[MyBelovedSmother mother]] and [[SpoiledBrat son]]. Either get BrainBleach as fast as you can or laugh until you cry.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** In "Los Tronadores", El Chavo shouts: "I would rather be dead than to lose my life!"[[note]]In Spanish: "¡Primero muerto antes que perder la vida!"[[/note]] The irony comes from the fact that in some of the Latin-American gaming communities, [[OneUp 1-Ups]] [[https://ehmato.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/prefiro-morrer-do-que-perder-a-vida.jpg are called "lives"]].
** In "El Cumpleaños de Don Ramón", the titular character starts feeling bad for some unknown reason, and other characters don't want to tell him anything. El Chavo accidentally telling him wrong facts only made him feel much worse; turns out, Don Ramón forgot his own birthday, and the other characters were planning a surprise party. [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne A certain pink pony would relate to him over 30 years later]].
** The fight between Don Ramón and El Profesor Jirafales in "El chicle en el sombrero" takes on a whole new meaning after both [[WesternAnimation/ElChavoAnimado the animated adaptation]] and ''Manga/DragonBallSuper'', as they have the same voice actors as Goku and Jiren, respectively. This also applies for the Ultra Instinct parodies using that same fight, as they were made before it was known that Juan Carlos Tinoco would voice Jiren.

* CreatorsPet: La Popis is usually considered one of the most bland members of the main cast at best, yet she and Ñoño gained a very prominent role after Carlos Villagrán's departure in 1979, replacing Quico and becoming main characters. However, it appears that Chespirito tended to overuse the character to give more protagonism to Florinda Meza, who he was in a relationship with at the time and had already became the female lead of ''Series/ElChapulinColorado'' for years, with Maria Antonieta de las Nieves being demoted in that series to usually only showing up when a second female character was needed, and in the same series, an episode which originally guest-starred Quico was later remade with Popis on his place, even though Chilindrina is a more important main character and could better fill that role (in fact, she does in a posterior remake of the episode). In fact, even in the 1978 version of "El insomnio del Chavo", Popis is added into the plot and takes some of Quico's lines, despite Villagrán ''being still in the cast at that point''.



* TheWoobie: Chavo easily lives the worst life out of the Vecindad's children, and sometimes has to [[WithFriendsLikeThese deal with the others' antics]] (Quico's [[SpoiledBrat meanness]], Chilindrina's {{manipulative|Bastard}} nature, Don Ramon's [[HairTriggerTeper temper]], Doña Florinda's... well, ''[[{{Jerkass}} everything]]'', etc.). The "El Diario del Chavo del 8" novel shows what a crappy life he had before arriving at the vecindad -- living in an orphanage of horror, witnessing a child ran over and die, and his ParentalSubstitute dying sometime after he arrived to the Vecindad. He is often mis-blamed for problems he didn't cause, most infamously in the episode where him is mis-blamed for theft, ostracized by everyone and leaves temporarily; seeing everyone calling him a thief at his face is pretty hard to watch.

** Gómez Bolaños never gave a pass to any of his cast members' physical traits. Some of the jokes he wrote would be considered mean-spirited in places like the United States, but still there are tons of references about Aguirre and Valdés's thinness (and the former's tall height), Fernández's old age, Meza's lack of curves, Padilla and Villagrán's droopy faces, de las Nieves' short height and Vivar's overweight (although, in all fairness, Gómez Bolaños [[SelfDeprecation would also make fun of his own]] short height and thinness). In modern times, this would be considered bullying and body shaming, and in fact, Chespirito himself later admitted in 2012 [[CreatorBacklash that he regrets making this sort of jokes]] and, if he were to return producing the series in modern times, he wouldn't include them.

* {{Woolseyism}}: The reason why El Chavo is so popular in Brazil is partially due to the amazing job done by the dubbing company, who many agree has improved over the original script - for instance, a joke that became a {{Meme|ticMutation}} was "We would be better off watching Pelé's movie!", which in the original was an ActorAllusion, "We would be better off watching [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Chanfle al Chanfle!]]". This is coupled with the fact that many Mexican productions back in the day used to be imported with a dubbing that was either mediocre or just plain bad.

This is coupled with the fact that many Mexican productions back in the day used to be imported with a dubbing that was either mediocre or just plain bad. The dub did have some occasional flaws, such as false cognates (such as "''piña''" - "''pineapple''" - being translated to the homophone "''pinha''" - "''pinecone''") and some jokes becoming completely nonsensical, but in general, it is considered an excellent dub overall with many good adaptations.
** Another example is in the episode where everyone thinks El Chavo is going crazy and speaking to doors. At one point, Profesor Jirafales says the same happened to Don Quijote, and Chavo compares Don Quijote to Ñoño, saying that whenever Señor Barriga goes out with his son Ñoño, other people say "Que hijote" ("what a big son"). In the dubbed version, the joke is changed to that instead Chavo says that on another day, he kicked Ñoño on the leg and he shouted "Que chute!" ("what a kick") mantaining the wordplay with "Dom Quixote".

* GrowingTheBeard: The 1974 season is the one where CharacterizationMarchesOn is completed for the cast, with the main characters getting their definite personalities. Most {{Running Gag}}s were also introduced (such as Señor Barriga being hit by El Chavo when he comes to the vecindad, or Profesor Jirafales making a mistake in his CatchPhrase when he meets with Doña Florinda), and not all episodes [[BottleEpisode are set in the vecindad]], some of them being set in the streets or in the school.

The 1975 season took these traits and improved even more, adding aspects such as a redesign to the vecindad, La Chilindrina's return after her leaving in late 1973, more creative and original stories, unusual cartoonish elements such as the kids' imaginary visit to the witch's house, and Doña Florinda kicking Don Ramón up to the top of the vecindad's wall.



** The 1975 episode "El primér dia de clases - parte 2" also spawned countless memes in Mexico and Brazil due to the scene where Don Ramón temporarily acts as a teacher while Profesor Jirafales is away. Examples include Don Ramón's BigNo [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLCoBW52GwM due to his voice actor's delivery]], the scene where [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZ4G3FSREzE he exclaims that the skull drawing represents danger]], wrongly exclaiming the word "perigo" (danger) as "prerigo" and [[PunctuatedForEmphasis emphasizing each syllable]], and the weird, funny dance he does while giving a visual representation of what can happen if one drinks from a bottle with a skull symbol on it. There is even an iconic Brazilian [[VoiceClipSong YTPMV]] named " [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGcstfDJNLY Seu Madruga Will Go On]]", which used several lines of dialogue of that scene to the tune of Music/{{Anamanaguchi}}'s ''My Skateboard Will Go On''.

* SeasonalRot: Often stated to happen either in 1979 (With the departures of Fan-Favorites Quico and Don Ramón) or 1980 (When the show stops existing independently, becomes part of Chespirito and the amount of RecycledScript episodes goes up to eleven). Although there is a consensus about Quico and Don Ramón leaving the vecindad had a huge impact in the quality of the show. First, this made characters like Doña Clotilde and Doña Florinda to become almost useless, especially the latter (who gained much more focus and entire episodes centered around her). Despite the addition of new characters like Jaimito and Doña Nieves, which become very popular with the fandom, many feel the 1972-1978 seasons are way better.

** To a lesser extent, the 1977-78 seasons are considered relatively inferior to the 1974-76 phase, due to the overabundance of remakes (most of them serving the purpose of incorporating Chilindrina in stories she originally wasn't present in, but in most cases, it resulted on her being completely irrelevant and expendable to the plot), and the actors' performances being less lively in comparison. Some detractors of this era feel that the 1979 season was actually a breath of fresh air for the show, since the absence of Quico and Don Ramón forced Chespirito to stop simply doing identical remakes and start adding new elements to the series, such as an increase of classroom episodes and Doña Florinda's restaurant.

** Don Ramón killing Doña Florinda's cat just for thinking it was eating his fishes (and La Chilindrina tried the same in the remake) and El Chavo accidentally killing Quico's cat just to avoid to crash into Professor in the streets (and showing no remorse or sadness for that).

Acceptable Targets (and its derivatives) is now an index.


* AcceptableTargets:
** [[UsefulNotes/AssociationFootball Football]] commentators and referees, to the point "referee" was treated as shorthand for "blind". In one episode where El Chavo and Quico are playing soccer, El Chavo allows Chilindrina to play with them as long as she plays the commentator. When Quico argues that Chilindrina knows nothing about soccer, Chavo simply replies with "Exactly!"
** Gómez Bolaños never gave a pass to any of his cast members' physical traits. Some of the jokes he wrote would be considered mean-spirited in places like the United States, but still there are tons of references about Aguirre and Valdés's thinness (and the former's tall height), Fernández's old age, Meza's lack of curves, Padilla and Villagrán's droopy faces, de las Nieves' short height and Vivar's overweight. In all fairness, Gómez Bolaños [[SelfDeprecation would also make fun of his own]] short height and thinness.

* TheScrappy: Candida and Elizabete (especially the latter). Both were introduced in the first classroom episode, ''"Llegando tarde a la escuela"'', the same episode in which Malicha was introduced, but while Malicha still got to show up in two more episodes, both Candida and Elizabete were PutOnABus.

Both were introduced in the first classroom episode, ''"Llegando tarde a la escuela"'', the same episode in which Malicha was introduced, introduced. While Candida is a forgettable FlatCharacter, Elizabete plays the role of the intelligent student but while has very annoying quirks, such as crying at the slightest provocation and giving answers in [[MotorMouth very rapid succession]]. Malicha still got to show up in two more episodes, while both Candida and Elizabete were promptly PutOnABus.
