Lopez (3/4)

George Lopez is back, again, with a new TV show with his name, again, where he plays himself, again. And its actually funny & good, again! 

The show is created by John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, who have done amazing shows from Kings of Hill, to Silicon Valley. No wonder TV Land gave a 12-episode straight-to-series order in August 2015. And the shows premier today was quite funny & fun. We see George Lopez, an aging & successful brown comic, but only popular with browns & blacks, struggling to keep up with the whites & the world.

A new comedy from George Lopez and co-creators of Silicon Valley, Lopez is inspired by the life of George Lopez. It starts Wednesdays, March 30th at 10/9c on TV Land Lopez Premieres Wednesday March 30th at 10/9C on TV Land! Watch a preview on the TV Land App!

George is hilarious, as usual, and really suits the part! The guest star Snoop Dogg, didn't have much to add, but had a nice part. Most of the rest of the cast was good too. But  this episode heavily relied on George's shoulder, and he did great. The jokes were funny, and socially relevant. Like most of George's show, it's still heavily focused on hispanic issues and many cliches & stereotypes too. Hopefully we see that evolve in upcoming seasons, with more characters developing.
