As a Hispanic-American/European, George Lopez's new show makes me feel embarrassed of my heritage. Lopez vs. Lopez feels more like a corporate shove at the 1 yard line rather than an organically-merited television show like we've come to love in years past. The themes and meme-stock value of this show are a blanket for current culture, instead of a comedic vision for the future. Sadly, this show will go sour in a short period of time. Compared to previous NBC evening weekly programming, this is a certified bust. The conservative, teenage humor is an uncomfortable, friction-ridden experience that makes me worry about what's coming next. Not because of tone and affect, but because it makes me cringe to the core.
