El Fichero del Bumblebee Guy
(The Bumblebee Guy File)

Characteristics of The Bumblebee Guy
The Bumblebee Guy is a Mexican actor working in the US. He wears his bumblebee suit (black and yellow stripes; antennae) almost exclusively. His companions are his co-workers, his wife (divorced, as of 3F18) and his pet chihuahua. Custody of the pet chihuahua proceeding the divorce is up in the air. The Bumblebee Guy is voiced by Hank Azaria.

The Many Names of The Bumblebee Guy
Known by most as 'The Bumblebee Guy', this fellow has quite an identity crisis going. In "Team Homer (3F10)", he wore a name tag that said Pedro, which is the only real name that has been given directly by the show. A few insiders and most alt.tv.simpsons denizens, myself included, however, refer to him as Chespirito, as is explained in the following document . . .

The Origins of the Name 'Chespirito'
This letter by Jose Javier from San Juan, Puerto Rico is the only element I've retained since gaining control of the Bumblebee Guy file. In it, he was kind enough to point out the origins of the real Chespirito (for the purpose of this list, it has been edited):

Roberto Gomez BolaNos, a.k.a "Chespirito", is a well known comedian in Mexico. His fame came with the TV shows "El Chapulin Colorado" (The Red Grasshopper) and "El Chavo del Ocho" (The Kid from the 8th.). Both shows were made at the Televisa studios, and ran for almost ten year with great ratings in all Latin-America. No longer made, the re-runs are being shown in most Latin audiences including the USA. "El Chapulin Colorado" was a parody of classic heroes like Superman. With a red grasshopper costume and very dull reflexes, he defends justice in his own style and always won because he has the courage to defy all the bad people with his big heart (that's why the yellow heart in his chest ). His most common phrases were: "Siganme los buenos!" ("Follow me, good ones!") and "No contaban con mi astucia!" ("They don't count with my Astuteness"). Regards... Jose Javier San Juan, Puerto Rico

This article, posted to a.t.s. by Veronica Marquez, comments on the dialogue in "22 Short Films About Springfield":

The Spanish in this episode is atrocious, sounding more like a translation of English dialogue into Spanish than real Spanish. And worse, there's no such word as `wudpequero' in Spanish. Of course it takes a fluent Spanish speaker like myself to understand what I mean. For the record, Pedro said: `Oh, what a terrible day at work. First, the attack of the crazy woodpecker. Then, a disaster of electricity. And finally, a catastrophe with a baseball.' Then, `Ah, time to relax in peace and quiet. Ow, oranges on the head! Ow, a precarious chandelier.' Then the woman says `Look at the terrible thing I don't understand how this know how I can live with a man so irresponsible. No, no no no no!' (Hey, don't ask me what that should mean.) Then, Pedro says (the only acceptable Spanish here) `Oh, where's my tequila?' And most legal statements in the United States are done in English regardless of the language spoken. You'd find better Spanish on bilingual applications. I think the awful Spanish made it funnier, but that's just me. Diff'rent strokes, it takes diff'rent strokes to move the world... ahem.
