is a Mexican sitcom television series produced by Pedro Ortiz de Pinedo for TelevisaUnivision.[1] The series series stars Edson Zúñiga as Compayito, a bare hand puppet character that Zúñiga first portrayed in 2001 for Televisa Deportes programming. It premiered on Las Estrellas on 8 July 2023.[2]
In order to pay his debts, Compayito (Edson Zúñiga), a former sports commentator, is chased by loan sharks. While trying to flee, Compayito is run over by Zacarías Fernández (Raúl Araiza), who lost all his money trying to rescue companies in bankruptcy and now lives with his family at his father's house. Compayito is allowed to stay at the Fernández house and Zacarías sees this as an opportunity to fix his financial problems. Zacarías believes that if he can restore Compayito's fame, he will benefit from his success. However, Compayito will pretend he is still injured in order to avoid being caught by his creditors.
