It's a running catchphrase in the show. It can be translated as "but of course! It had to be el Chavo!" So yes you are spot on, it's like saying "isn't it always" though it feels awkward as a direct translation.

I just was really not expecting to see this old TV show as a meme making reference to Stranger Things. I laughed more than I should.
