La Chicharra

La Chicharra is a 1979 Mexican TV series created by Roberto "Chespirito" Gómez Bolaños for Televisa, replacing the more known El Chapulín Colorado on the daily grid for Las Estrellas. It never had a huge success, but it ended up being a sketch on the program Chespirito until 1982. Alongside other series, La Chicharra's broadcasting was canceled in August 2020 after Televisa's funding problems with the series.
