La Carabina de Ambrosio is a Mexican television show created and developed by Humberto Navarro, filmed at the Televisa Studios, Chapultepec in Mexico City, from 1978 until 1987.
Humberto Navarro, creator and producer, of La Carabina de Ambrosio, was a young up-and-coming talent of Televisa.
This was a scandalous costume for the era and stunned the television public when Gina bumped and grinded while white smoke was pumped in at her feet.
Another part of the success formula was adding guest entertainers such as, but not limited to, singers César Costa, Manolo Muñoz, and singer/dancer Laura Zapata.
At the time, it was unheard of that a Televisa executive would dress up in a big yellow bird suit and act silly on national television.
The recreations proved to be so popular that Hoy brought the series back as a permanent fixture and recently began its fourth season.
