Summary: Disputes Galore, No Peace For George Lopez!
Comment: George Lopez is a factory worker in a Plane parts factory in LA who has just been promoted to management. His Cuban wife Angie{played by the stunning Constance Marie}, is the good Samaritan & matriarchal "know it all." His father in-law Victor Palmero{played perfectly by Emiliano Diez}, is the Cardiologist who can't accept that his upper-middle class daughter married a blue-collar man. The kids are hyperemotional Carmen{Masiela Lusha}, & dyslexic Max{Luis Armand Garcia}. George's best friend & co-worker is the sweet, insecure, loveless, Ernesto Cardenas{Valente Rodriguez} Now for the other main character, one truly can't describe George's verbally cruel mom Benita Lopez-Benny{played brilliantly by Belita Moreno}. She is a cross between Godzilla & Roseanne{Roseanne Barr}, without the softness. She works with George, chain smokes, & drinks.
This is a blue-collar Hispanic version of the "Cosby Show" with more laughs. In this show a solution given to a problem at the end of one episode often creates new plots while maintaining the basic themes. You have an array of multiple disputes. Cuban vs. Mexican, white-collar vs. blue-collar, dominant wife{George, end of discussion!} vs. cynical husband{George loses 99% of the time}, daughter vs. son, parents vs. kids, George vs. Victor, & everyone vs. BENNY! Typically, episodes that involve her are the most hilarious. She can walk into a room{George move your big Pumpkin head out of the way, your blocking the TV!}, offend everyone in 30 seconds, & then leave for a "smoke & a beer." George's wounds from his fatherless childhood & neglectful mother are at the heart of the show as he & Benny rehash every battle as they draw all into their mini Armageddons. The first two seasons were not the best, but this show got better every season. Lastly, Sandra Bullock deserves credit for getting this show on TV.

Summary: loopy for lopez
Comment: My son and I discovered the George Lopez Show about 6 months ago in reruns on Nick. We love it! The whole cast is great, but George and Benny's relationship and banter back and forth is hysterical! We just had to start collecting the DVD's of the different seasons so we could watch whenever we wanted. So far only the first and second season are available, but we are waiting for more!

Summary: a VERY funny show!
Comment: this show is a RIOT! I definitely love it because:
- there is a blend of the cuban and (americanized) mexican cultures; it's a subtle but direct way of reminding people that not all hispanics/latinos are from the same country.
- the issues seem more real/modern and not necessarily sugar-coated and the family deals w/ them in a more unique and sometimes crazy way (ex: dyslexia; bedwetting; sex before 18; quinceaneras; job security; drinking; etc)
- the script seems much more original and not so mainstream/mass-produced. at least for me, the writing sounds fresh and definitely more original than other mainstream shows.
you may or may not agree, but at least check it out. :o)
