What Parents Need to Know
About George Lopez
Parents need to know that the hard-working Lopez family is generally respectful (the teen daughter is much less whiny and defiant than teens on other shows, and the family is supportive toward the son with dyslexia). But innuendos are common, and some of the humor relies on put-downs ("she's not like you when you were getting married -- she's not a minor, not pregnant, and knows the name of the guy she's marrying"). The ethnic humor doesn't sink as low as it could, but it is there, and sometimes it's more stereotypical than it has to be.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about parenting styles. How does George's approach to parenting differ from his mother's? How do George's wife and kids support him and each other? What do these characters value, and how do they express that? Another topic could be George's work situation. What does it take to succeed when you aren't offered a lot of advantages in life? Also, what's easy and hard for George about supervising his friends and his mother at work? Would you want to manage your friends or family? Why or why not?

O.K. Show with Diversity
I like it ok, but children wouldn't get any of the humor. It's a show obviously for teens and adults, and I respect that. I like it, but if I was a few years older I would like it better. Sexual content isn't appropriate for anyone under 13, and Benny's (and many other characters) language is unruly at points. Alcohol is mentioned in almost every episode for a laugh (which gets old in my opinion) and Benny is not a good role model (getting pregnant at 17, drinking too much and abusing her child, also used for laughs). This show pushes boundaries of offensiveness. The good messages are surrounded by Carmen, who almost always learns a lesson. Ok show, would reccommend to some.

- My highlights are:
It is a very funny show, but there is some sexual references and dialogue; adult humor. Also, the characters are not always respectful to authorities and loved ones (George punches his father).
