NBC 2024-25 Comedy Slate, Reba Sitcom Picked Up; CBS Summer 2024 Schedule
NBC has solidified its comedy slate for the 2024-25 season with the season three renewal of multi-camera sitcom Lopez vs. Lopez as well as a series order for multi-camera sitcom Happy's Place starring Reba McEntire. The two join the recently renewed multi-camera sitcom Night Court for Season 3 and upcoming new single-camera comedy St. Denis Medical. Meanwhile, NBC has canceled multi-camera sitcom Extended Family.
For Lopez vs. Lopez, in its just concluded second season, Mayan and the Lopez family underwent big changes while George took his first step in sobriety. The series is the highest-indexing broadcast program among English-dominant Hispanic households. George Lopez, Mayan Lopez, Selenis Leyva, Matt Shively, Brice Gonzalez and Al Madrigal star. In Happy's Place, Bobbie (Reba McEntire) inherits her father’s restaurant and is less than thrilled to discover that she has a new business partner in the half-sister she never knew she had.
