Si usted es de latinoamerica, usted sabe que es este programa. Disfrutelo.

If you are not from Latin America, let me briefly explain what this clip is. "El Chavo del Ocho" is a hugely popular sitcom from Mexico. The main character is a homeless child who lives in a barrel in a "vecindad," which is a low cost apartment building which often have a communal central patio. Vecindades are normally one or two stories high. They are often associated with the urban poor. Everyone in this vecindad is struggling economically, and poverty is a big subtext of the story.

The counterpart of el chavo es Don Ramon, the adult in the t-shirt and the floppy hat. He is underemployed or unemployed, and he is often trying to make a living in the gray market.

As dark as this sounds, this is a very funny sitcom. The U.S. has a very similar sitcom that its context is horrible: That 70s Show. Life gets worse and worse for the family, but the actual show is funny.

This segment is about how two children in the vecindad want to learn how to play the guitar.

If you understand Spanish, you may appreciate it. :)
