The show has transformed a lot from its first airing which was about the working class and indigenous Gonzales family moving into a 'pituco' (upper class) neighbourhood and annoying their 'pituco' neighbours - the Maldinis.
Of course, the programme has now been going for nearly 15 years so the Gonzales's and the Maldini's have sorted a lot of their issues out but what AFHS (as it is known by its abbreviation) is, is a cultural, social and media institution in Peru, shown more or less daily in Peru and with a large following, the future stars of Peruvian television and film usually cut their teeth here and some of them come back and star in the show after they have made it. It has survived ten series until now, here is to another ten more!
