History Funny / ElChavoDelOcho

* The "Posada" episode: Mr. Barriga is sweeping the patio's floor, unaware that El Chavo is nearby, swinging a little piñata around in expanding circles, [[WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong approaching inch by inch to unsuspecting Mr. Barriga's head]]... and then [[spoiler: [[BaitAndSwitch suddenly striking Quico, who was behind of El Chavo, off-screen]].]]

--->'''El Chavo:''' ([[spoiler:From inside the barrel]]) They don't have patience with me!

** The Poem/Story of "[[OverlyLongGag El perro arrepentido]]" ("The Regretful Dog") by El Chavo. Complete with overly dramatic gestures. This is also the only poem the kid knows, so it appears ''every'' time.

'''Quico:''' ''[ecstatically]'' He was looking for us!!!

* During the credits roll of the 1977 ValentinesDayEpisode, several couples can be seen. [[ChastityCouple Doña Florinda and El Profesor Jirafales]], [[AbhorrentAdmirer Don Ramón being visibly uncomfortable with Doña Clotilde]], [[PuppyLove El Chavo and La Chilindrina]]... [[{{Narcissist}} and Quico with a hand mirror, looking the happiest of them all]].

** Speaking of Don Ramón boxing, there's the scene where La Chilindrina is seeing the photo album, with the pictures of Don Ramón as a boxer, with the ''Film/{{Rocky}}'' theme playing in the background. We see a photo of him punching out his opponent, and on the next page, [[CurbStompCushion he's being carried off by two assistants after being knocked out.]] [[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand Cue the music dropping]].

'''Chavo''': Yeah, but ''without'' potatoes.

-->'''Doña Florinda''': But which job would you do in my restaurant?
-->'''El Chavo''': Anything… Waiter, cook, [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers owner]]... Whatever you want.
-->'''Doña Florinda''': What I really need is people coming here to eat.
-->'''El Chavo''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Yes, I like much this job!]]
* Quico describing Chilindrina as "She's this short, short, short girl. Freckled, freckled, freckled. Toothless, toothless, toothless and with glasses, glasses, glasses."

** This exchange dserves a mention:
-->'''Don Ramón''': Yes, it is true that El Chavo ran over the cat, but did it out of fear. Chilindrina, what did the cat do to Chavo before he ran it over?\\

'''Chilindrina''': It's dead? ''(Screams and cries yet again)''\\

** In general, there are plenty of scenes where the cast either hide or lower their faces [[{{Corpsing}} because they themselves can't help but laugh.]]

* In the episode "El Mesero" where El Chavo seeks for a job in Doña Florinda's restaurant, we have this:
-->'''Doña Florinda''': But which job would you do in my restaurant?

-->'''Doña Florinda''': What I really need is people coming here to eat.

** Then at the end, they try again, but once again they come in different order, [[EpicFail and they]] ''[[EpicFail screw]]'' [[EpicFail it up again.]] First, Gloria goes "[[OhCrap He died?!]] [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone I swear, I didn't meant to hit him so hard!]] [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Excuse me!]]" and then runs away. Then, Doña Florinda is told to come in, and her response is "Ah, so a masochist. And I'm a sadist!" then goes in to beat him up. Lastly, when Doña Cleotilde comes too, Quico misses and instead plants the pie into la Chilindrina's face.

* How Quico {{pun}}ily first explained the circumstances behind his DisappearedDad.

--->'''Quico:''' ''({{beat}})''

--->'''Quico:''' ''(to the others)'' Haha, I'm gonna get her! ''(to Chilindrina)'' Hey Chilindrina, do you know who is the son of my father and--

--->'''Quico:''' ''({{beat}})'' Well, stay quiet and let me finish the whole riddle, okay? Now, who is the son of my father and mother, but--

--->'''Quico:''' ''({{beat}})'' Wait until I've finished '''''THE WHOLE RIDDLE!!!!'''''

--->'''Quico:''' ''([[BreakingTheFourthWall looks at the camera]])'' Now how can we put up with these women?

-->'''Quico:''' Oh, really? ''I wish that someone would make la Chilindrina cry!! (Quico starts pulling her hair)''
-->'''Chilindrina:''' Owww!!! ''(starts crying)'' You'll see! I'm gonna tell my father that you've pulled my hair, and that you've kicked me, and that you've shot me with a slingshot, [[BlatantLies and that you've shot me with a handgun, and that you've shot me with a sniper rifle, and that you've shot me with a machine gun, and that you've shot me with a cannonball, and aside from that,]] ''[[BlatantLies YOU'VE TRIED TO KILL ME!!!!]]''
-->'''Quico:''': ''([[BreakingTheFourthWall looks at the camera]])'' ...I'm really evil.

--->'''Quico:''' ''(excited)'' Alright, Chavo! For me to- [[DelayedReaction What did you just say?]]

--->'''Quico:''' First of all, [[IResembleThatRemark you should not wish for the impossible]]. And secondly... ''([[TooDumbToLive realizes what he just said]])''

-->'''Don Ramón''': And right now when the international football match is about to start! ''(grabs the TV)'' This is what happens when you buy second-hand stuff!! ''(smashes and stomps the TV, and then El Chavo and La Chilindrina enter the house)''

-->'''Chilindrina''': ''(sheepishly)'' [[NowYouTellMe Did you know that a while ago the power went out in the neighborhood?]]

--->''(Don Ramón lies knocked out in the floor with the brick completely shattered over his body)''

--->''(Chavo starts to play with his ball and Quico arrives in the scene)''

--->''(Chavo was about to give the lamp to Don Ramón but turns back to reply to Quico)''

--->'''Don Ramón:''' ''(starting to get angry)'' Chavo! Give me the lamp bulb!
--->''(Chavo was about to give the lamp to Don Ramón but turns back to reply to Quico again)''

--->'''Don Ramón:''' ''(already angry)'' CHAVO! Give me the lamp bulb!
--->'''Quico:''' ''(comes out holding his big ball)'' What did you say?

-->'''Chilindrina''': ''(Bursting into tears)'' I swear it was not me, professor. I wasn't even there when it was destroyed! ''(Starts crying)''

-->'''Chavo''': ''(Stands up)'' Professor, I know La Chilindrina very well and if she says she didn't destroy it it's because it was not her.
-->'''Chilindrina''': ''(Still crying)'' Thank you, Chavo... ''(Stands up, kisses El Chavo and both hug each other)''

-->'''El Chavo''': I was going on the bicycle when I was suddenly distracted because there was a very beautiful woman in the streets. ''(El Profesor Jirafales, who was the "judge", [[{{Foreshadowing}} tries to stare somewhere else]])''

-->''(El Chavo approaches El Profesor Jirafales)''\\

-->'''*Everyone starts yelling and arguing*'''\\

'''La Chilindrina''': (eloquently) No, rather: ''from discussion, light is born!''\\

'''Don Ramón''': (after spending the whole exchange laughing in the background) Chilindrina, please! What kind of respect is this with Professor Jirafales? Take in mind that no matter what, he's your teacher!\\

'''Prof. Jirafales''': (dumbfounded) I was? When?\\
'''Don Ramón''': ({{beat}}) You said that.

'''Don Ramón''': (In a challenging tone) ''Repeat that!''\\
'''La Chilindrina''': Nosey old hag! ''({{beat}})'' I wasn't gonna repeat it, but [[ExactWords he told me to]].

'''Quico:''' The one that is arguing with an idiot '''IS YOU'''! ''(proudly looks away [[DelayedReaction until he realizes what he said]])

'''Quico:''' ''(who was cleaning the front door of his home)'' Yeah, me.\\

'''Quico:''' ''(worried)'' Me too?\\

'''Quico:''' ''(relieved)'' Ah, thank goodness.

'''El Chavo:''' Witch! ''({{beat}})'' You're the one who started!

--> '''Doña Florinda'''': Professor Girafales!
--> '''Professor Girafales''': Doña Microbio! I mean, Doña Florinda!
--> '''Doña Florinda''': What a miracle you come around.
--> '''Professor Girafales''': I came to bring you these microbes... I mean, this flower bouqet.
--> '''Doña Florinda''': Oh thank you! But don't you want to come for a coffee cup?
--> '''Professor Girafales''': Won't that be too many microbes? I-I mean...

--> '''La Chilindrina:''' Chavo, don't! Don't try to hit Quico with your fists! ''(picks up a brick from the ground)'' [[BaitAndSwitch Use the brick instead, it's better!]]

-->'''Chavo''': Should have said it before! ''(punches Quico out and takes his soda)''

-->'''Quico''': ''(seeing the American football)'' My ball!\\

''(Quico goes off to cry leaning on the wall, then Professor Jirafales approaches el Chavo)''\\

-->'''Chavo''': ''[checking behind Ñoño]'' No, it's not what we thought. Just his pants ripped open.

-->'''Don Ramón''': Now, hit me.\\

-->"Well, Ron Damón didn't have any use for it. But we've already gotten him some new equipment." ''[cue Don Ramón being brought strapped to a stretcher, breathing with an oxigen mask and an oxygen tank]''

-->'''Don Ramón''': Okay, let's assume this here is a skull. ''(beat)'' [[SuddenlyShouting BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!]] ''(beat)'' A pirate flag? [[BigNo NO!]] A graveyard's notice? Nope. This skull here means DANGER! You've heard me! ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis DAN-GER!]]''

-->'''Don Ramón''': ''(after splitting "Quico" in half)'' What do we have here, Chavo? \\

'''La Chilindrina''': ''([[DelayedReaction nods, then realises what he just said]])''\\

'''La Chilindrina''': ''([[TranquilFury stares at him in disbelief]])''\\

-->'''Doña Clotilde''': I'm sorry, Don Ramón. But that's the law of retaliation. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth ''(shows off her dog's bandaged leg)'' and a leg for a leg.\\
'''Don Ramón''': ''(gets up from the chair and mutters sarcastically)'' A leg for a leg. WITCH!

-->'''Chavo''': You see Ron Damón?! I told ya she was gonna transform you into an animal!

'''El Chavo:''' ''(showing Don Ramón the peso he got)'' Take this.\\
''(emotional music starts playing as Don Ramón realizes El Chavo's action, very touched by it)''\\

'''El Chavo:''' ''(gives Don Ramón both the peso and the broom)'' But make sure it's very well cleaned!\\
''([[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand The music slowly stops]] as Don Ramón gets angry and El Chavo happily leaves)''

** Speaking of Don Ramón boxing, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBVpPLD247k this scene]]. Never the ''Film/{{Rocky}}'' theme was ever played so hilariously.

* At the end one of the school episodes, Professor Jirafales tells the kids to pick up their books, an proceeds to give this speech:

'''El Chavo:''' Witch! ({{beat}}) You're the one who started!

-->"Well, Ron Damón didn't have any use for it. But we've already gotten him some new equipment." ''[cue Don Ramón being brought strapped to a stretcher, breathing with an oxigen mask and an oxigen tank]''

-->'''El Chavo''': I was going on the bicycle when I was suddenly distracted because there was a very beautiful woman in the streets. ''(El Profesor Jirafales, who was [[TheJudge the "judge"]], [[{{Foreshadowing}} tries to stare somewhere else]])''

* First of all, many jokes are [[RunningGag repeated]] countless times through the series and yet they're funny ''every single time''.
