 Product Description: Take a working-class guy in a working class job with working class friends and what you get is comedy that really works: Seasons One and Two of George Lopez. The talented comic plays assembly-line worker George Lopez who brings a blue-collar outlook (and laughs) to a white-collar job when he's promoted to management. Make George's casa su casa and meet his loving wife (Constance Marie) and kids (Masiela Lusha and Luis Armand Garcia) and his not-so-loving mom (Belita Moreno).Running Time: 584 min.System Requirements:Run Time: 644 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: Unknown UPC: 085391114888 Manufacturer No: 111488 Amazon.com: Take one "everyman" standup comic, add a ridiculously good-looking wife, and throw them into everyday scenarios that are taken to the extreme and you get George Lopez, a pleasant and funny series with a winning formula not unlike that of According to Jim and Everybody Loves Raymond. Starring George Lopez as, well, George Lopez, and Constance Marie as his put-upon wife Angie, the ABC series debuted with a four-episode mini-season in spring 2002. Good ratings and favorable reviews got it picked up for the 2002-2003 season. Both the first and second seasons--totaling 28 episodes--are included on this four-disc set. The show begins with George being promoted from his blue-collar factory job to management. Much of the early episodes concentrate on his happiness at being able to provide for his family, but still not sure where he falls in the us-against-them polarities at work. One of the show's executive producers is actress Sandra Bullock, who has a recurring role as a klutzy colleague with depth perception problems. There are a few bittersweet episodes as George learns that his father--whom he had been told was dead--is actually alive and could be one of his former assembly line co-workers, Lalo (guest star Cheech Marin)--even though Lalo is gay. That the show's writers and cast are able to make this implausible scenario somehow ring true--and funny--is a testament to their talent. The language tracks are in English and Spanish, with Spanish subtitles also included as an option. Fans of the show will notice one major difference between the televised episodes and the DVD version: Instead of War's infectiously catchy "Low Rider" starting each show, the theme has been replaced (due to rights issues) by generic music mixed in with some Lopez quips. All things considered, George Lopez is a refreshing variation on the loving, but blemished, all American family. --Jae-Ha Kim Customer Reviews: Rating:  Date: 2008-07-03 Missed this when it was on primetime Missed this show first time around, i guess i was busy, who knows, been catching it in re-runs and i gotta say this is one of the funniest comedies i have ever seen , i'm pretty sure George Lopez will go down in history as one of the funniest comedians.Can see why its been picked up by Nick at Nite, because this show has that classic sitcom feel that will still be fun to watching 20+ years from now. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-19 Great I love George Lopez he is hilarious. You can't beat the price for 2 seasons. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-15 The George Lopez Show On DVD! From the producers of The Drew Carey Show and executive producer Sandra Bullock, comes the hit ABC family comedy "George Lopez." Based on star George Lopez's recollection of his hispanic family dynamic, "George Lopez" (aka The George Lopez Show) casts the comedian as an everyman juggling a wife (Constance Marie), mother (Belita Moreno) and kids (Masiela Lusha and Luis Armand Garcia) and a new job as manager of Powers Bros. Aviation, a Los Angeles aeronautics factory.
Harkening back to the heydays of family comedy classics The Cosby Show and Roseanne, "George Lopez" [by successfully putting a latino family on TV], too, changed the face of TV through its depiction of relatable family dynamics, relevant to real life storylines, a perfect balance of comedy and heart, plus a first-rate cast who for 5 seasons (2002-2007) developed a genuine family chemistry that always made me want to tune in. "This show has been like the family I didn't have growing up," Lopez said.
George Lopez - The Complete 1st & 2nd Seasons is a 4-disc (644 min.) set featuring the show's first 28 episodes (all 4 from Season One, plus all 24 from Season Two); Full Frame (1.33:1) video; English and Spanish Stereo audio; Spanish subtitles, plus the following Special Features: "Inside the Comedic Mind" - featurette explores what shapes George's comic outlook, according to George, his castmates and the show's creative personnel; and a Gag Reel - Hilarious outtakes and bloopers set to music. To this day, ABC's "George Lopez" remains one of my all-time favorite shows, and it looks and sounds great on DVD. Keep 'em coming, Warner Home Video!

Bring on George Lopez - The Complete Third Season! Rating:  Date: 2008-05-19 George Lopez is the man Excellent and funny as hell although Amazon said they had product in stock when I purchased it and they actually didnt and had to wait almost a month for it to come. Called them after 2 weeks and complained and wanted my money back and they told me that they could not return the money because it was already in shipping mode when it was not, said I could just refuse the shipment when it came and then get my money back. So once it finally came I couldn't resist and kept it but Amazon sucks. Rating:  Date: 2008-04-25 George Lopez Season 1&2 This is a great sitcom that will entertain the whole family. I recomend this to anyone who likes comedy mixed with the everyday life of a suburban blue collared family. |
