El Chapulin Colorado ("The Red Grasshopper") is a middle-aged man in red tights and sneakers, yellow trunks, and springy
antennae with pom-poms on the ends who entertains
children with his crazy antics on the
Mexican kid's show
Chespirito.
He is also the direct inspiration for the wacky Mexican television personality in the bee suit on The Simpsons, whom I am told is actually named "Chespirito".
