2002-2007 Sitcom George Lopez Coming to TBS; Guests Announced for black-ish Election Special
Fan-favorite sitcom George Lopez is coming to TBS! Starting September 28 to November 1, catch daily episodes of the 2002-2007 sitcom George Lopez on the comedy network every morning! It is airing weekdays usually from 8-10am ET and on weekend mornings beginning at 6am ET. George Lopez joins the TBS early morning block with 2 Broke Girls, Family Matters, and Everybody Loves Raymond - all starting usually at 4am ET. George Lopez has been on Nick at Nite since 2007 but it left the network earlier this month, as the rights expired. The series originally aired on ABC and starred George Lopez, Constance Marie, Luis Armand Garcia, Masiela Lusha, Valente Rodriguez and Belita Moreno, with Emiliano Díez and Aimee Garcia joining the series in later seasons.
The Johnsons and black-ish return to ABC with a special one-hour television event on Sunday, Oct. 4 from 10:00-11:00 p.m. EDT, immediately following the NBA Finals Game 3. The two back-to-back episodes, which will air ahead of the official season seven premiere on Wednesday, Oct 21 at 9:30 p.m. EDT, will follow the Johnsons as they navigate the upcoming election, with Junior (Marcus Scribner) embarking on his journey as a first-time voter and Dre (Anthony Anderson) launching an exploration into local politics. On his campaign trail, Dre seeks advice from an animated Stacey Abrams, the former Minority Leader of the Georgia House of Representatives. Later, he joins Desus Nice and The Kid Mero on their late night talk show Desus & Mero for a sit-down interview with some hard-hitting questions for the aspiring candidate.
In "Election Special Pt. 1," (10:00-10:30 p.m. EDT), Junior is excited for his first time voting but discovers he has been purged from the voter polls so he does a deep dive into why - trying to understand the systems in place for voter registration. "Election Special Pt. 1" is directed by Matthew A. Cherry and written by Eric Horsted. Then, in a special animated episode, "Election Special Pt. 2," (10:30-11:00 p.m. EDT), Dre's colleague Stevens makes an ill-advised decision to run for Congress, so Dre enlists his family's help and campaigns against him but gets caught up with fundraising and private interest groups. "Election Special Pt. 2" is directed by Matthew A. Cherry and written by Graham Towers & Ben Deeb. Stacey Abrams, Desus Nice and The Kid Mero guest star as themselves.
