Los niños no van a la escuela (El Chavo del Ocho)

Los niños no van a la escuela is the 256th episode of Season 7 of El Chavo del Ocho. It first aired on September 10, 1979. Many fans consider it to be the worst episode from the classic era.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) Unlike most of the other episodes of this show, its plot is very bland and uninteresring, since it simply consists of El Chavo, la Chilindrina, and Ñoño ditching school in order to avoid El Profesor Jirafales, and nothing else happens beyond that.
 * 2) For a comedy show, this episode is hardly funny, since there are very little jokes, and the few it have, does not manage to work.
 * 3) The pacing is horribly slow, thus killing the comedic timing for any joke to work.
 * 4) Bad Ending: At the end, it turns out that the kids skipped school for nothing, since it was Sunday, thus making them waste their time.
 * 5) These makes it the least inspired episode of the original run of El Chavo del Ocho by far.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The actors still do a good job with their characters.
 * 2) None of the characters are unpleasant.
