Saint George

Same thing just remove Carmen, have Angie and Max be acted by generic white people, add a gangster uncle and it feels similar. At the time, I thought it was good but after reflecting on the years, the show is boring and uninteresting. The humor isn't that great and is pretty dull, especially from the ex-wife and son. Plus I think the Mexican family view here is done more poorly with the fact half of the time I can't get or laugh at their antics unlike I did with George with Benny. Might as well give this one a pass.

Saint George is amazing. Those who don't like it don't seem to realize that Saint George actually truly represents a Mexican family. It is not fake most Mexican families such as my own and many of my friends have a similar family member to each of the characters. This show and others are not the reason for the current generations problems it's the parents faults. The parents are the ones who allow them what they can or can't watch so why blame a show which you could easily block from the TV. And the show never said it was made for children, George Lopez's live comedy acts are more mature than the show it's not meant for children. Therefore it makes the perfect show for an older audience.

I Love George Lopez and if he'll come up with another show I'll definitely give it a chance. But this show is just awful and not remotely amusing! I LOATHE that mother character! Her lines are so badly written, she comes across as the most hateful person who is just violent and mean!! She is vile and I can not stomach watching her! None of the characters have ANY chemistry! And I agree with the previous comments, the content seems to be going for some kind of shock value; but they are not pulling it off! Don't try to "fix" this show; it's already left a bad impression. Rather be smart and know when to step away, find creative writers and a cast who has chemistry. For the love of George's reputation take this off the air and give him another show!!

The concept is a good one. The jokes could work, however.. it doesn't. George Lopez is actually really funny and real. However, the mother I HATE Her, she is not funny, just mean. She does not seam to care about George and I get it, she is suppose to be the mean mother/grandmother George grew up with. It just doesn't work. She should show her meanness should come out of love, instead it comes out as hate towards him and his son. I think if the concept was with Danny Trejo trying to help George raise his child after a divorce maybe. However, the chemistry of the actors with each other is not there. I am such a big fan I hate to give him 3 stars. If they get rid of the mother maybe it stands a chance.

I'm not opposed to raunchy or edgy humor. I love "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and "Archer," two shows which are proudly aggressive in their adult humor. The problem with "Saint George" is that it feels like a traditional 3-camera, live audience family sitcom where someone decided to graft on the most unfunny "adult" jokes into the script even though they just don't fit the style of the show. (Actually, they wouldn't fit ANY show because they are just so immature and lame.)

If George Lopez wanted to do something different than his previous show, he should have made this a single camera show like "Louie" and work with writers who know that style. Or he could have gone the "Modern Family" route, emphasizing the multicultural family. But if he wants to save his current show with the least amount of work, he would do well to ditch the childish "adult" humor and simply embrace the family-safe sitcom style that this show really wants to be. It also appears to be what Lopez's fans want.
