Fábrica de Huevos will air on Wednesdays and Fridays at 10pm as part of Azteca America’s comedy lineup

Azteca America launches Fábrica de Huevos, an animated comedy program at 10pm Eastern / 9pm Central. This bold and irreverent show created by and for Latinos in the U.S., is a different approach to what Spanish-television offers viewers in primetime. The new comedy adventure starts when animated egg characters cross the U.S.-Mexico border. The new series is produced by the creators of HuevoCartoons, brothers Gabriel and Rodolfo Riva Palacio Alatriste. Their Huevo Cartoons movie was the highest grossing film in the history of Mexican cinema. This unique vignette-style show combines live action and animation with the comedic flair that U.S. Hispanic audiences crave. Also featured in the sketches is the very talented Wendy Braga Peraza, the vivacious female side-kick who perfectly complements the offbeat comedy of the Riva Palacio Alatriste brothers. Rounding out the cast is the versatile writer and performer Fernando Meza Muñoz who also lends his voice to several of the delightful animated characters.“Fábrica de Huevos uses wit and verve to address the unique challenges Hispanics in this country face as they adapt to their adoptive homeland,” said Marlene Braga, VP of Programming for Azteca America.Fábrica de Huevos will air on Wednesdays and Fridays at 10pm Eastern / 9pm Central as part of Azteca America’s comedy lineup which starts on May 14 with Buenas Noches América, followed by El Pelado de la Noche on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
