About two years ago TBS branched out into late night TV with George Lopez and today they announced that they were cancelling Lopez Tonight. The network released this statement about the cancellation, “TBS has reached the difficult decision not to order a third season of Lopez Tonight. Thursday will be the final episode of the show. We are proud to have partnered with George Lopez, who is an immensely talented comedian and entertainer. TBS has valued its partnership with George and appreciates all of his work on behalf of the network, both on and off the air.” I am sad to see this show go because for a first time late night host, he did a pretty good job. Plus he got some good guests on the show and treated them right. I really hope they can get Erik Estrada to appear on the final episode because it would be a nice consolation prize for Lopez.
TBS has not announced what will replace the show but hopefully they won’t replace Lopez Tonight with The George Lopez Show repeats because that would be a kick in the pants.
