Biography

Il est le second des trois fils (Francisco, Roberto et Horacio) d'Elsa Bolaños-Cacho Aguilar (secrétaire bilingue) et Francisco Gómez Linares (peintre et illustrateur).

Avant d'être acteur, il fut boxeur débutant, et obtint également un diplôme d'ingénieur de l'UNAM (Université nationale autonome du Mexique). Il a commencé sa carrière comme créatif publicitaire au début des années 1950, avant de devenir scénariste.

Il épouse Graciela Fernández, avec qui il aura 6 enfants.

Il est créateur de plusieurs personnages de télévision qui sont des caricatures de la société mexicaine des années 1970 : El Chapulin Colorado et El Chavo del Ocho, par exemple, pour ne citer que les plus connus. Ses séries continuent à être diffusées dans toute l'Amérique latine. Il interprète en général le rôle principal de chaque série et est entouré par un groupe d'acteurs, dont sa femme, Florinda Meza, qu'il a épousée le 19 novembre 2004, qui campent des personnages récurrents.

In the women-ruled planet of Venus, the Union Leader of the Oppressed Husbands Syndicate wants to revert the power of leadership back to the men and threatens to initiate a strike if his will is not heard. However, the female leader of Venus believes otherwise and asserts that male dominion will only cause war and disruption. Therefore, she sends Lieutenant Laúr and Sergeant Rauna on a mission to choose two male earthlings who can prove to be more useful than Venusian men, so that they can bring more of them to Venus. When Laúr and Rauna choose Viruta and Capulina, two amateur singers who work in a gymnasium, they are intercepted by their constant rivals the Martians who claim that Earth is a satellite of Mars and therefore it should not be intruded by Venusians. Capulina manages to steal a super-power locket from a Martian which allows him to scare them off. He and Viruta later marry the Venusian women Laur and Rauna and then travel to the Moon for their honeymoon.
