Lopez Vs. Lopez- What We Know So Far

Without a trailer available at press time, we have to rely on the blurbs and press photos released from the show’s pilot to properly describe what “Lopez vs. Lopez” will be about. NBC describes the show as a working-class comedy “about dysfunction, reconnection and all the pain and joy in between.” Aside from the fact that it will mine Mayan and George’s real-life relationship for fictionalized plots to a degree, there’s no further word as to what the show will be about.

It’s easy to imagine from this blurb that the show will derive conflict from the generational gap between George and Mayan, who may clash over the fact that she is not married to her boyfriend. They could have conflicting opinions about how to raise Chance properly and over Mayan’s mother’s presence in her life. Add on relationship and workplace conflicts for Mayan, and the possibility of George having a rich pool of friends and work connections to mine, and you have the makings of quite the interesting sitcom.
