LA HISTORIA REAL DETRÁS DEL EMOTIVO REGRESO DE ‘DON RAMÓN’ A LA VECINDAD DE “EL CHAVO DEL 8″

#Donramon #chavodelocho #mexico On September 2nd, Ramón Valdés would have turned 100 years old. On the occasion of this birthday, we remember one of the most emotional scenes of the beloved actor on the show that launched him to fame. Airing for more than 50 years, much has been said not only about the episodes of "El Chavo del 8" but also about the well-known arguments between the cast members that ultimately extinguished the magic that made the show created by Chespirito one of the most popular on Spanish-language television in recent times. Of these confrontations, the one between Ramón Valdés and Florinda Meza was one of the most well-known on the show and the one that led to the subsequent departure of the beloved Don Ramón from the El Chavo neighborhood. The Beginning of the Problem According to several actors on the show, the problems began when Carlos Villagrán left the show in 1978, after failing to reach a business agreement with Roberto Gómez Bolaños. This created discomfort among the entire cast, but especially among Ramón Valdés, a friend of the actor who played the character. to Quico. A discomfort that worsened when Florinda Meza began to take on a role that went beyond her role as an actress, given her relationship with Chespirito. In past interviews, Esteban Valdés, Ramón's son, himself said that his father felt uncomfortable with Florinda's bossy attitude, which led him to leave the production some time later. "My father's departure did have to do with Roberto and Florinda's relationship... She started wanting to direct the show, maybe not directly, but she was starting to make some decisions. That's what my father told us when he left the first time," Esteban told the YouTube program @gonsolaba. This version was echoed by Carmen Valdés, Ramón's daughter. In one of several interviews with media outlets, she also addressed her father's brief return to the show, two years after his departure. "He met with Roberto and they talked, and it seemed like everything was going to be back to normal. When my dad returned, happy, he loved the program, his work on those forums, the tours, it turned out that it didn't work out and that unfortunate situation happened again. Well, then, yes, he left for good,” she said. The Return of Don Ramón The event Carmen Valdés refers to is what we all saw in the episode titled: The Return of Don Ramón, aired in 1981. In it, the charismatic character returns to Chavo's neighborhood after a long absence of two years. In this episode, corresponding to the program “Chespirito,” we see Don Ramón arrive at the neighborhood dressed in a new suit and with a look of nostalgia, which an incredulous Chavo and Popis notice. Once they are sure that it is Don Ramón who has returned, the old blow to Chavo by the grumpy character returns, as well as Mr. Barriga's collection of the rent and Doña Clotilde's sigh for her impossible love. Everyone, in some way, already felt the essence of Don Ramón upon his return to the neighborhood, except for La Chilindrina, who was in the other yard. The reunion of father and daughter Once in the courtyard of the neighborhood we all know, the long-awaited reunion between Don Ramón and La Chilindrina finally takes place. "Daddy!" she cried with a broken voice upon seeing Ramón again, and then ran to hug him. The actress's gesture and the emotional hug they exchanged led to speculation that the scene was not rehearsed and that, therefore, María Antonieta de las Nieves did not know that Ramón Valdés had returned to the program. However, it was Esteban Valdés again, this time accompanied by Roberto Gómez Fernández, who clarified the matter.

It was fantastically emotional because it had a touch of reality. It was a return, and not just any character,” they both maintain.
