Leonorilda Ochoa Arturo Castro Amparo Arozamena (now Televisa) Los Beverly de Peralvillo is a Mexican sitcom that copied its similar name as a spoof from "The Beverly Hillbillies" that originally had aired from 1962 to 1971. Meanwhile, Los Beverly De Peralvillo aired from 1969 to 1973, including 2 motion pictures based on the Television show. It stars Guillermo Rivas, Leonorilda Ochoa, Arturo Castro, and Amparo Arozamena as the main characters.

The series was a success and spawned two films, Los Beverly de Peralvillo (1971) and ¡Qué familia tan cotorra! (1973), and a follow-up series, Los nuevos Beverly.

Premise

El Borras is a taxi driver who falls in love with La Pecas. Not knowing that her shiftless family is waiting for someone to support them, Borras gladly marries her. Doña Chole, Pecas' mother, reveals the truth and forces Borras to provide for the whole family; Borras begins to detest her and calls her "La Tarantula". Borras relies on the help of his mustached friend, El Bigotón, who instantly becomes enamored of Doña Chole. El Comanche, the policeman who issues Borras' traffic citations, also falls in love with Doña Chole. The family lives in Colonia Peralvillo, a poor Mexico City neighborhood.
