Watch Chespirito: Not Really on Purpose

Roberto gets his team together for one last project -- a comedic soccer film called El Chanfle. While the cast and crew come to blows on set, Roberto faces a choice between his past and his future. Later, a warm welcome in Colombia reminds Chespirito of his true purpose: making people laugh.

As Chespirito's characters reach the height of their popularity across Latin America, Roberto relishes in his newfound level of fame -- while growing more distant from his family back home. In Acapulco, Roberto finds himself struggling with what he feels and what he thinks is right.

With Roberto's career on the rise, the cast of El Chavo embarks on an international tour. But while her husband dives headfirst into his work, Graciela struggles with her new reality as the wife of a star.

As El Chavo gains popularity and Roberto is given more creative freedom, Channel 8's competitors vie to bring Chespirito on board. Meanwhile, success and fame cause trouble for Roberto, his team and his family, leading to the comic's most prolific -- and devastating -- era.

In 1936, a young Roberto is sent to Guadalajara, where he struggles to fit in. Decades later, the now seasoned Chespirito finds himself lost without his biggest supporters at Channel 8, but memories of childhood help the comic conceive El Chavo del Ocho -- his most successful series yet.

While continuing to clash with network executives, Roberto gets pitted against a rival comic. After abandoning Dr. Chapatin, Roberto has just three weeks to come up with a new idea or surrender his primetime spot -- leading to the superhero smash hit El Chapulin Colorado.

After his writing work earns him the nickname Chespirito, Roberto tries his hand at acting, but rival egos cause him to seek new opportunities. When Roberto creates the character Dr. Chapatin for Channel 8, an ethical predicament leads the comic to question his creative identity.

In 1951, Roberto pursues his dream of a career in television, defying his mother's orders to try his hand at both comedy ... and love.
