George Lopez Net Worth $25 Million
An award-winning show, “George Lopez” explored issues related to race and ethnicity, with a focus on a Mexican American culture. The show first aired on television screens in 2002 and was on air for six seasons until it was cancelled in 2007. The main reason for the cancellation of the show was that it was too costly for the ABC network to pick it up for another season. In addition to that, the show had to constantly compete for air time with other shows on the network.
When “George Lopez” was cancelled, Lopez went on to launch his own late-night television talk series called “Lopez Tonight”, which premiered in 2009 and became an instant hit, as its premiere received a larger viewership than such shows as “Late Show with David Letterman”, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and even “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart”. However, the show that featured guest appearances from Conan O’Brien, Antoine Dodson, Janet Jackson, Donald Trump, Louis C.K. and Usher to name a few, did not stay on air for too long. It was cancelled in 2011 after two seasons and was never picked up afterwards.
