ABC announced that the George Lopez Show will end after six seasons.
In a statement posted by Defamer.com, Lopez says, “I get kicked out for a… caveman and shows that I out-performed because I’m not owned by [ABC Television Studios]… so a… Chicano can’t be on TV but a… caveman can?” (Cue the Geico commerical where the cavemen are offended by Lopez’s comments). “And…”
Lopez continued, “…a Chicano with an audience already? You know when you get in this that shows do not last forever, but this was an important show and to go unceremoniously like this hurts. One hundred seventy people lost their jobs. TV just became really, really white again.”
