Lopez Tonight

Lopez at his best is very funny. Tha's true for his standu, his situation comedy, and his talk show.

His core audience knows why, can relate to his humor based on common experiences, background. Those who aren't Latino, have never been around Latinos, or find Latinos threatening or hard to understand, won't get his humor.

His problem has always been a limited amount of material before he repeats himself. True of his standup, where he was hilarious for the first decade and then only kind of funny after. True of his sitcom, where he was only funny the first season and then only sometimes on the rest of it.

And it's true on this late night show. Hilarious the first few months. Then he was clearly running out of jokes. He's not nice guy everyman like Carson, or bland like many others. He's abrasive, which is funny to his core audience.

But to whites scared of dark skinned people, they use code words like "coarse" or "vulgar" when they wouldn't complain of the same from Don Rickles or Larry the Cable Guy.

I miss this show! It was awesome! What were they thinking when they took it off the air?

I'm from MD and went to LA to watch it live and it was so much fun. George is funny on set and off set. His guest selection was great! I have been to many different talk shows and game shows and this one is ranked the best live taping on my list.

The music on the set played during commercials was great! Moving the air time of the show was a big mistake. I can't believe Conan is still on. I hope another network picks Lopez Tonight up. E! maybe?

I wish George success in his future endeavors! Thanks for the laughs George!

Great show Incredibly funny and ventures into new territory, unlike any other talk show. I like its guts and direction. George Lopez is a comedic pro and handles his position with great confidence and poise. However in order to speak to a more broader demographic he will have to have to leave his comfort zone of ethnic based humor.

Some new comers to George Lopez may find him to be a bit aggressive with his monologues but that his just his comedic style, It will take some getting used to. George in contrast to the way he does his monologue greats his guest with great sincerity and seems to have a hospitality unlike any other talk show host, this can prove to make great accidental comedy which is what talk shows feed on.

I can't believe his show was on as long as it was. Lopez is a funny guy and his sitcom was OK, but the few times I watched his talk show I was not impressed. He also has a lot of issues around women and gays and that is a big turn off. He's just kinda of a big mouth who used his wife until he got ahead then he dumped her, I think the word tool is appropriate in his case or perhaps he is a closet case? Either way I hope they find something with some entertainment value to put on during that time slot that is not a talk show or a reality show, hell reruns of the Flying Nun would be an improvement! I think the whole late night thing is pretty stale now, I can't stand Leno, Cohen or Kimmell, (how Jimmy got his own show I will never know, I guess he was F;;;ing Ben Affleck.

Worst talk show, or possibly any type of show, ever. Past, present, or future. I used to claim that Mad TV was the least funny show ever, but I have to admit that there are certain skits that I find funny. Rarely if ever do they use intelligent or witty humor, but they can at least occasionally come up with something humorous. I can actually accept that Mad TV is just a different type of humor that some people find funny and I just don't really appreciate it. But I will not accept talk that promotes George Lopez as being funny. If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that George Lopez IS NOT funny. I tried to sit through a complete show of his one time. I'll never put myself through that soul draining experience again. It is unwatchable. Knowing that people laugh at his jokes makes me lose hope for humanity. Positive reviews of this show should be reported immediately.

Instead of a numerical rating for this show, I would prefer to give it's rating according to this function:

Rating = y - 10x

y represents the numerical rating for how funny the show is. x represents the number of George Lopez's in the show.

Therefore, the highest that the rating of a show containing one George Lopez could possibly be, is absolute zero. In the case of Lopez tonight, it receives an imperfect rating of -10.

One of the jokes I just heard on his show: "Today in Washington Obama had lunch with some Republicans to talk about fixing the economy. They were getting along great until the checks came."

Waiting for the punch line? That was it...

Case closed.
