El Chavo Animado (El Chavo: The Animated Series in English) is a Mexican animated series based on the live action television series El Chavo del Ocho, created by Roberto Gómez Bolaños, produced by Televisa and Ánima Estudios. It aired on Canal 5, and repeats were also shown on Las Estrellas and Cartoon Network Latin America.[1] 135 episodes aired between October 21, 2006 and June 6, 2014.[2] After several years of successful repeats of the original series, on October 21, 2006 Televisa launched in Mexico and the rest of Latin America an animated version of the program by Ánima Estudios to capitalise on the original series' popularity. With the series, Televisa began a marketing campaign which included merchandise tie-ins. For the series' launch event, a set was built (imitating the computerised background) on which the animation was said. Many elements of the original series, including most of the original stories, were included in the animated series. El Chavo Animado also aired in English via Kabillion's on-demand service in the United States. Although it was part of the video-on-demand service, the series did not appear on the Kabillion website until the site's April 2012 relaunch. The series is currently airing on BitMe and Distrito Comedia as of 2020, and from 2016 to 2017, and again from 2022 to 2024, it aired on Univision and Galavisión alongside El Chapulín Colorado Animado. PremiseBackgroundThe cartoon depicts the children to scale, compared to the live-action series where the children were played by adults. This was not the first attempt to animate the show's characters; claymation sequences were created for the original-series credits during the late 1970s, and 2D animations were used for the credits of Chespirito (the program which succeeded El Chavo and its sister series, El Chapulín Colorado). SynopsisBased on the series El Chavo del Ocho, the cartoon is the adventures of El Chavo, a poor boy, and his gang, who live in a village in Mexico (the Brazilian dubbing, however, moved the village's location to Brazil and in Kabillion's dub, to New York City). In the first season, all episodes of the series are remakes of episodes from the original series. With the absence of La Chilindrina, Ñoño, Popis and Quico (in school episodes) partially replace her role in most episodes. From the second season, the cartoon began to have episodes with original stories. CharactersMain article: List of El Chavo del Ocho characters
El Chavo Animado features all the characters of the original series, with the exception of La Chilindrina and Doña Nieves due to legal ownership disputes between María Antonieta de las Nieves and Roberto Gómez Bolaños. The series stars El Chavo, a poor boy, along with his gang, which consists of Quico, the exhibitionist and protected son of Doña Florinda, and Ñoño, an obese boy which is Señor Barriga's son.

The theme song and most of the character names were changed, but the original theme song can be heard during the credits of nearly every episode. Spanish cuisine was Americanized, and the setting changed from Mexico to New York City. Episode titles were changed to idiomatic English, although only 2 seasons were aired in the United States. US namesChavo, Gloria and Quico are the only characters whose names have never been Americanized or changed. Although Paty's name sounds the same, the US version adds another "t" to the name.
