Chespirito: El Niño Que Somos
As a child, Roberto Gómez Bolaños dreamed of being a soccer player or an engineer; acting seemed ridiculous to him. But as time went by he discovered his true calling. First as a writer and then as an actor, he gave life to several characters, including two of the most popular in the history of Mexican television.

Niño de Papel
An orphan who sells newspapers on a street corner, instead has a large family on the streets of the city: an old uncle with whom he lives, a kindly false manager from a bank, a substitute mother at the vendor of arepas, a sister in her daughter and a future brother-in-law in the police that goes out of her way. A series where grace and tenderness mix, and in which economic poverty and spiritual wealth shake hands and offer laughter and teachings.

El Chanfle
Although he always wanted to become a professional soccer player, El Chanfle has settled for being the props boy and water boy for Mexican soccer's Club América, whose coach they both have trouble getting along with because of the Chanfle's heightened sense of honesty and cleanliness on the court, something the rigid coach does not share. When he is asked to cheat during a game he refuses and is fired from his job, but his friend, the team doctor will try to get him back. At the same time, his wife Tere announces to be pregnant, and trying to sell a gun in order to make money for their future, unintentionally scares a old man, Chato, with it, who now seeks revenge.
