The sucess of the series led Torres to being offered his own show on Creator/{{HBO}}, ''Chumel con Chumel Torres'', a late-night political talk show similar to a Spanish-language version of ''Series/LastWeekTonightWithJohnOliver'' (he can curse as much as he wants without being censored, can recur to high-budget segments)... until he made a joke about the president's son. After that, Creator/{{HBO}} decided to "temporarily suspend" his late night show without further details and removed the episodes from both Website/YouTube and ''HBO Go'' (now renamed Creator/HBOMax).

In June of 2020 Torres was invited to speak at a joke about forum on racism and classism in Mexico, and following a tweet by the president's son. After that, First Lady tweeted condemning how someone who spoke ill of her underage son was invited, a high level of outrage on twitter erupted. Following this controversy Torres apologized for his remarks, but the conference was cancelled and Creator/{{HBO}} decided to "temporarily suspend" his late night show without further details and removed the episodes from both Website/YouTube and ''HBO Go'' (now renamed Creator/HBOMax).

** Sometimes Chumel would mention a scenario of a couple in which the female would cheat on her partner or do something that implies so, before adding "''... ¿verdad, Carolina?''" ("... [isn't that] right, Carolina?"), implying that he was in a relationship with a woman named Carolina who did the same thing. There was even one sketch made by the show as a PSA about drinking where Chumel actually married Carolina and they had children; his life was in a total mess.
