neverlong-36970 I normally have pity and respect for a character like George. but honestly I never approved of this show. The profanity is too extreme. They use the A-- word in this show little too much. like I could be walking past my mothers television to go to the kitchen and I hear somebody use A--. Which I realize most comedian shows now use that word and I don't know why. but I think this show can lower the percentage of their fowl language. I remember 15 years ago when you heard people on TV say kick your butt or don't be such a jerk. Now they say don't be such an A--. Its still a dirty word to be using on shows like this. which is why most TV shows are now considered inappropriate for little kids and for the people who might not approve of that kind of language.

Realrockerhalloween George is a typical blue collar worker who makes factory parts for powers brothers aviation when he is promoted to manager and now has to manage a wacky crew that will have you in stitches.Never forgetting where he came from George Lopez always incorporates a good work ethic, his Hispanic roots and being a good father and spouse.The homes are recurring themes about his abusive past with his mother Benny, his wife Angeie who gets upset when he forgets special occasions, his two kids being bratty or need guidance and Ernie his bumbling best friend that can't find a date.It helps ground the show in reality by showing that not everyone can be like the Cosbys and have problems that can last a lifetime.The plots are refreshing following his teenage daughter Carmen for many years as she dealt with boyfriends and entering high school and later on focusing on rich cousin Hedonic getting used to the simple life.Many of the plots were based on real life occurrences like George having an abusive grandmother and having disputes with Lusha that lead to her departure.The music, camera angels, wacky caste and story lines made it the top entertainment show for ABC for six years.It still runs on reruns on TV land if you want to catch this incredible show. It only lasts for half an hour and you'll breeze right through it.10/10

Giordanoanny-601-333516 I love the George Lopez Show. This particular episode had me laughing a lot. George is always really funny whether it's in his stand-up or on his sitcom. The idea to give Carmen a birthday party with Sea Horse dancers was hilarious. We saw the male dancers rehearsing in the backyard before the party, Mark Meismer, Matt Sergott, Christian Vincent & Steve Bermundo. Later was when we got a great laugh seeing Carmen enjoy her party while the dancers came out in Pink Sea Horse heads. That was the best. I wish George would do another sitcom because I truly feel he is such a gifted comedian. Constance Marie was really good in this episode and great in the movie Selena. What happened to her?

liquidcelluloid-1 Network: ABC; Genre: sitcom; Average Content Rating: TV-PG (strong adult content); Classification: Contemporary (1 - 4); Season Reviewed: Season 3+ While ABC's decision to put the slightly cruder 'George Lopez' as the lead-in to it's re-launched TGIF line-up is a judgment call I question, it does make for a slightly out-of-field comparison: 'Lopez' is cooler, edgier, funnier and more substantive than anything I remember from the line-up once populated with 'Full House' and 'Family Matters'.Developed by the Deborah Oppenheimer/Bruce Helford crowd that brought us 'The Drew Carey Show' back when self-titled sitcoms from stand-up comics were all the rage. 'Lopez' falls somewhere between the crude, edge of 'Carey' and the standard family sitcom. But the scripts are consistently a triumph of avoiding standard sitcom clichés, instead the show has turned toward a comedic spin on domestic drama where George Lopez (obviously as himself) struggles though (sometimes cataclysmic) events in his work and family life all the while trying to make sense of his family's past and his maniacal, brazenly without shame mother Benny (Belita Moreno). Season 3 (I could take or leave seasons 1 and 2), was ripe with domestic confrontations, family secrets revealed and a long lost father and siblings for George. In more than one way the tone of the show recalls you might get if you burned away all the rawest, sharpest edges from Fox's 'Titus'.George Lopez shines in the show. The biggest crack in the armor is in the supporting cast. Where 'Titus' had a strong one in the legendary Stacy Keach and Cynthia Watros, Moreno doesn't have the presence of a chief antagonist and often just comes off obnoxious - so much so it will prompt me to change the channel during her scenes. Constance Marie is stuck in a largely thankless role as Lopez's wife, much of the time just staying out of Lopez's way. The show hasn't put her in the typical whiny sitcom mom role which is appreciated more than anything she does, but when the story requires Marie is able to step up in a way that the rest of the cast can't. Really, that only marginally matters, because it's quite literally all Lopez's show. George Lopez tears through the sharp dialog like a Tasmanian devil, spitting it all out with an impeccable comic delivery able to get big laughs from little lines like "Stitch it on a pillow sister, we need cash". He is the tent pole that almost all the laughs swing around and the show is at it's best when it knows that - allowing for the supporting cast, in all their limited acting ability, to stand as plot-device in Lopez's way.'George Lopez' is the first mainstream, successful American sitcom with an almost all Hispanic cast. It sprinkles touches of cultural authenticity all around - and in ways I'm sure I don't get, but for the most part the family is largely mainstream. I can understand that some might view is a copping out. I see it more as the show's desire to present a traditional sitcom family that happens to be Mexican. Now, if there were a lot more shows on TV like this, then we might have an issue. One of my favorite bits in the series is the way it brought back the time-tested tradition of a conservative father debating with his liberal daughter (Masiela Lusha). Season 3 opened with a bang in the hour-long episode "Dad, Dubya and Dating" where Lopez tries to keep daughter Carmen from joining an anti-war protest. In a later episode, in a funny spin on preachy series, Carmen says her rights have been violated by "the New England Patriots Act", to which George replies "That's about gay marriage, don't you pick up a newspaper". We get the sense that 'George Lopez' doesn't want to be seen as a pioneer sitcom, nor does it want to make a political statement. It just wants to be funny - and it is that. It's also substantive and genuine which is rare. It's one of the better family sitcoms on TV right now.* * * / 4
