Quico is a character from El Chavo del Ocho, the long-running Mexican sitcom created by Roberto Gómez Bolaños and first broadcast in the 1970s, where Carlos Villagrán played the spoiled, temperamental boy next door. Short outbursts from the show have long been reused as reaction audio, especially in Latin American meme culture, because Quico's voice is so distinctive and his tantrums are easy to recognise out of context. On soundboards, the stressed version is kept short for quick edits, reaction videos and chat replies, which helps it stay useful long after the original broadcasts.
