Show Summary

  • Ended
"George Lopez," the hit family comedy starring popular standup comedian George Lopez, is on ABC. The series is from Bruce Helford, Deborah Oppenheimer and Robert Borden all from ABC's long-running hit comedy series, "The Drew Carey Show" and actress/producer Sandra Bullock ("Miss Congeniality," "Speed").

George Lopez is a guy who has made lemonade from lemons at every turn. Since he became plant manager at an L.A. airplane parts factory, he has handled a complicated and tumultuous job, a strong but challenging marriage, two rebellious children and a mother who can't keep track of her own lies about his childhood -- all with his sense of humor intact.

His affable compadre, Ernie (Valente Rodriguez, "Erin Brokovich"), still ribs George about his high-powered management position at the plant, but always lends a hand when George needs him. Ernie, who still lives with his mother and father, has learned some fathering skills of his own after foster-parenting a troubled twelve-year-old boy.

Though their marriage has had some close calls, George and his devoted wife, Angie (Constance Marie), still chose to renew their vows recently. Angie deals with his questionable decisions and freewheeling approach to parenthood and his mother's insensitive wisecracks with the patience of a saint -- and some guidance from her father, Vic (Emiliano Dez) -- but her drive to build a still unprofitable wedding-planning business has nearly driven their family to the poor house.

George's biggest test, both at work and home, is dealing with his tough and acerbic but loving mother, Benny (Belita Moreno, "Perfect Strangers"), while sifting through her vast assortment of lies about his family and childhood. After rediscovering and losing his father to kidney disease and learning of a long lost sister, George constantly wonders what, or who, is around the next corner.

After running away from home, being expelled from school and falling in love with a handsome jock, sixteen year-old Carmen's (Masiela Lusha) free-spirited, teenage rebellion has left her parents at a total loss about what to do next. Always the practical joker, thirteen-year-old Max clearly maintains the sense of humor he inherited from his father, but continues to struggle with dyslexia and constantly tests his parents' limits by being drawn toward the wrong crowd.

    "Abysmal"
    Seriously why does everyone like this dang show. Ok my older brother watches it and i've seen only 3 episodes of it and it sucks like crap! Worst show on nick at nite ever! I'm surprised this show actually last pretty long. WOW! It's not even funny. the jokes are like forcing you to laugh, but i can't because it stinks. This show should just be canceled from all channels!
  • What a family show!

    George is a hilarious dad to follow. He has a foreign accent, but he's good at what he says! His wife Angie is the opposite of him (serious, fashionable, a great talker too). Great role playing here... the setting of the tv sitcom is hilarious and more!
  • I can't believe ABC cancelled this for Cavemen! For shame!

    Great, another show I love somehow got cancelled, I just can't catch a break, it's a shame that a truly great show as this won't have at least one more season. This show never fails to consistently make me laugh, as this is the ONL sitcom i've watched so far where EVERY chracter had something funny to say. There's also lots of sad and touching moments on the show, i've been taping it off WCIU for a couple weeks now, and still have plenty of episodes left to see. I hope that there's a George Lopez movie one of these days.moreless

    "Mediocre"
    I can't laugh at this show. I really have a hard time trying to laugh at bits that are so old. The acting is very average and the comedy is boring. I don't understand why the show lasted as long as it did, but I guess others saw something I haven't been able to catch. The only good thing i can say about this show is that it managed to stay consistently the same in terms of frequent plots and storylines. Other than that, I just didn't care for everything else. Overall, not a terrible show, it just isn't funny or good. Thank you.moreless
