"Lopez vs. Lopez" is a new pilot from NBC coming on Friday, November 4 that will follow a fictional story between George Lopez and his daughter, Mayan. The two have reconnected after having a strained relationship for years in the show, and George will be living in the same house with them. The series will apparently pit father and daughter against one another as they try to make amends. However, fans on Twitter are a little torn as to how they feel about the upcoming pilot.
@YuGiOhFan2023 posted on their feed that they thought the trailer foreshadows great things. "DAAAAAAAAAAAANG!!! If this trailer was anything to go by, #LopezVsLopez is sure to be [fire]," they said. Other fans felt the same. @oaks_sun explained that Lopez is part of their childhood. "Look at that @georgelopez has a new show out that's similar but NOT a reboot. And since he's an OG of my 2am childhood. Damn right in tuning in." However, some don't share the same positive feelings about the trailer. @e_joe10 said, "Note to @NBC : if you are gonna preview a new comedy it would help to show clips that are funny." @los37los50 had strong feelings about the apparent nepotism that they feel the series represents. "#LopezVsLopez worst nepotism in TV history," they noted.
Fans in the comments for NBC's official trailer release on YouTube were also divided. Only time will tell if this series lasts like the original.
