Pepa y Pepe is a Spanish sitcom television series with costumbrista themes, starring Tito Valverde, Verónica Forqué, María Adánez and Silvia Abascal. It aired in 1995 on TVE1.

The series consists of the comedic portrayal of the daily problems endured by a working-class family.[1] The family is formed by Pepa (Verónica Forqué), Pepe (Tito Valverde), María (María Adánez), Clarita (Silvia Abascal) and Jorge (Carlos Vilches). Besides the working-class background, it also differentiated from other popular Spanish sitcoms at the time such as Farmacia de guardia or Médico de familia due to its somewhat more irreverent sense of humour.[2][3]
