...Lopez Tonight
Well after about 2 years it is all over, no not this blog, Lopez Tonight. George Lopez announced last night that his show was ending and apparently the final show will air...Thursday, as I post this. He said, “Settle down, settle down. I only have until tomorrow night. So today I lost some work because I’m brown. But I also got some work because I’m blue." He was referring to his work as Grouchy for The Smurfs movie, which has already been greenlighted for a sequel, oy. Reasons for the show's cancellation range from cost cutting measures, which is what networks executives said, to the speculative fact that Conan's ratings are slipping and they cost Lopez ratings as well. Lopez was on at 11PM but moved to 12AM when Conan joined the network last Fall. Oddly enough this comes almost 2 weeks after George made some rather unfriendly comments about how
he and other late night show host hate Jay Leno. This goes to prove that you mess with Leno, you lose your job. I am giving Lopez Tonight a Digit Down for ending, and ending during the Summer without a chance to try to recapture an audience during the Fall when more people are less busy and willing to watch television.
