I also knew it would be a hit in syndication because when I attended a GL concert and he announced the show would be in syndication, the audience roared. As GL stated, "The GL show will live on forever."

Can you believe i'm starting to like GL more than GOOD TIMES?????-lol

I have always said George Lopez would work on Nick at Nite (and it did). It is family friendly, funny, new and would work on today's Nick at Nite. I thought HI and FM would do well, too (and they did). These are right up N@N's programming style. They are no out of place shows like Coach, NewsRadio, Wings, Murphy Brown, Mad About You...the only family show I thought would not work was Growing Pains (and it didn't).

I liked GL so much that I have a tough decision to make at 1am tonight, do I watch GL or the Jeffersons on TV LAND?-lol

Pavan · 07-14-2008, 12:45 AM

GLo isn't on 1-2am on Sundays (unless you mean the Nick2 10-11 airings at 1am ET)...but I would pick GLo. I love The Jeffersons, but GLo has the edge (I especially like seasons 3 and on).

I watched GLo and FM from 10p-12a tonight.

I just got the impression that most of us figured it wouldn't do well on N@N. This was at a time when both "Home Improvement" and "George Lopez" would be coming and it seemed like we all thought HI would be a big hit on N@N and GL wouldn't be.

I'll admit right now that I thought "George Lopez" would fail on N@N. This was when "Fresh Prince" aired all the time on N@N and I was sure "Home Improvement" would be the big hit that would take "Fresh Prince" down. And that didn't happen. It was "George Lopez."

I guess I thought everyone felt that way.

And just to be clear this has nothing to do with the quality of "Geore Lopez." I love "NewsRadio" and figured that it would fail on N@N. Though I tried to be positive about it. And I was surprised how fast they took it off their channel.

Those are two different shows. I can't say I like one better than the other.

I know GT like the back of my hand. GL is still a freshman type of show to me.
