In an interview with ‘The Chinese Gang’, Patricia Alquinta expressed his enthusiasm for this new project: “We have to come back, but in a big way.”
With the well-known phrase that Karen América used to say, with her ‘gaga’ character: “Scoop, warm, silly”, The report announcing the return of the popular nineties sketch begins.
This comeback is being carefully prepared to offer a top quality show. “People are going to come to see the ‘Familia Defectos’, remembering the 90s, but we want them to see us improved, that we act, that we sing, that we can do other things,” said Alquinta.
The participation of Patricia Alquinta as the ‘deaf’ made history in Peruvian comedy. Remembering ‘Laughter and Salsas’, and later, ‘Laughter of America’, He commented that it was an invaluable comedy school for actors of his time. He also stressed: “Jesús Morales, Adolfo Chuiman, they all came from serious theatre,” he added.

According to Alquinta, América proposed to reunite the ‘Familia Defectos’ in a theater to meet again with her audience. “Karen came and contacted us. She made a movie and suggested returning with the ‘Flaws Family’. It has to be a very good script for us to be able to return and we are working on it, that is, Karen is working on it“Alquinta explained.
The ‘Familia Defectos’ marked Peruvian television and the careers of Patricia Alquinta, Silvia Bardales and Karen América. Recalling the beginnings of the sketch, Alquinta said: “Guillermo Guille wanted to create different characters. Karen imitated her friend Gaga, which gave rise to the character. At one point, she said, ‘stay’, when I turned around I didn’t understand her, I didn’t understand what she was saying and then she said to me ‘Ah, you’re the deaf one’ and Silvia was always very fast, so we made her electric. That’s how the character is born,” she said.
The actress had mixed feelings when talking about the possibility of reviving other sketches, such as ‘Las vecino de Huaycán’, although she recognizes that it is difficult without Roxana Ávalos and Ricky Tosso, the remembered actors who passed away in 2000 and 2016respectively. “Only Fernando Armas, Manolo Rojas and I are left,” Alquinta lamented.
