r/GeorgeLopez

In Season 3 Episode 17, Angie leaves to go to a La Marie convention over the weekend and George stays with the kids at home. Throughout the weekend Carmen and Max act up and disrespect George and finally out of a fit of anger, he sends them to Bennys as punishment and also a lesson in how lucky they have it. Unfortunately Angie comes back early unexpectedly and George reveals he sent the kids to Bennys as punishment and she freaks out and they get into a fight.

I never understood why Angie was so upset? For those of you who saw the episode, Carmen and Max were both acting up (Whether you guys feel it was George's fault for being too lax or not lol) and needed to be properly disciplined. Sending a 15 and 11 year old to their grandmother's house to do chores and live without luxuries (electronics, games, tv etc). Isn't torture (?) Its not horrible (?). They weren't babies/toddlers so they didn't need to be coddled and knew exactly what they were doing in terms of behavior. They can survive a weekend without luxuries as punishment and have chores to keep them occupied. Yes I know Benny wasn't the ideal grandmother but if you guys remember, George told her no hitting and she wasn't allowed to bring Randy over and she wasn't inebriated.

So what was the issue? I guess Angie was scared Benny would do something to traumatize the kids? Scared they'd end up like George? (It was only a weekend though). Benny had babysit in past episodes and Angie was fine with that. Then again it was at their house with in a controlled environment vs her house. But again I don't feel the idea itself was so horrible. If the kids act up, they need to be properly disciplined and going 2 days without video games, cell phones, internet, etc. And doing chores like sweeping/vacuuming, laundry or whatever else the kids were doing wasn't bad. Anyways, thats my take on it idk how you guys feel.

Angie loses her job at the La Marie after it goes under Carmen is home schooled by Angie after getting kicked out of Alansdale.

George tells Carmen at the factory that Angie has nothing else to focus on but you kids

Carmen in argument with Angie you have no job no one to plan for dad was right you have nothing better going on in your life. George says thats not exactly what i said Angie.

do you think George is at fault for telling Carmen that allowing her to turn it negative

do you think Carmen is at fault for turning it negative

I used to watch the show as a kid late at night. Recently I began watching again and I can’t believe how obsessed Georgie and Angie are with Carmen’s virginity, her breasts growing, and other inappropriate things. I could never ever imagine my dad commenting on me hitting puberty or that my breasts got bigger. Idk if that was “the time” back then or what. But it’s so odd and disturbing and weird

He was Bullied just like Carmen but he was beat up instead of the false sex rumor. He also had toxic friendships.

this obviously isn’t a political subreddit, however why make an episode where you condemn arab and muslim hate only for you to express your support for israel and never even once say anything about palestine? i feel like there’s several reasons to dislike george lopez as a person, but this one is never talked about. there’s no reason to have made an episode like that and then become a hollywood sellout just two decades later.

Cecilia says the last time she heard Manny Lived somewhere in Northern California but he actually lived in Arizona as revealed later in the season 2 which indicates they had a falling out at some point.

So at first George was rightfully pissed at Ricky for ruining the fence and told him he can't see Max

But when he hears his dad left and his mom was drunk in the morning, he instantly forgives him and even wants him to stay with them and his discussion with Angie shows he was really determined to help him

Its clear he wishes someone did that for him as a child

Carmens Boyfriends Jason Zack Adam and Most likely Duncan was also toxi were toxic and Max Friends were toxic skater Boyz group Ricky and most likely those 2 boys that were also toxic that were playing with Max when Max told Benny to take her tired ass Home.

1 Carmen helps max forge names on a Baseball after Mr Needles destroys the Prized baseball.

2 Carmen Helps max pick out Clothes after He is Bullied

3 Max and Carmen try to stab George in a Halloween Prank

4 Carmen and max walk out on George and Angie after they find out about the movre to Colorado Carmen and Max in a way go on a double date in Colorado Max gets a Hickey Carmen gets drunk.

5 Colorado i think Carmen and Max team up to get out of Colorado after Max reveals he was part of a gang and Carmen danced half Naked in a rap video.

6 Carmen Helps Max Believe in santa again

I know that the location of the exterior is San Fernando. But do we know canonically in the shoe what neighborhood they’re supposed to be in?

also maybe have manny meet the powers brothers one more time, I think he did work at the factory possibly.

any other interesting interactions?

I don’t know why, but I’ve been thinking about this man on and off for the past month, and I’ve got but one question. Does he speak Spanish fluently?

If you’re a native Spanish speaking person, and you heard him speak Spanish, does he speak it with an American accent? Does he basically speak Spanglish? For example, I’m an American Born Chinese and my mandarin speaking is very elementary.

Maybe if someone answers my question, I can stop thinking about this man, because I’d like to be thinking about something more worthwhile, like, “should I go to the movie theater just to buy popcorn and bring it home?”

Thank you

Are there any aviation nerds in this group? I’m rewatching the show and just got past the part where George was told he was being tested about firing someone.

Jack has some model airplanes on the shelf behind his desk. Anyone know what the red and white one is? I’m only on episode two now, so maybe there are better views of it later, but I’m wondering if it’s the plane I’m thinking it is? Probably not, but I neeeeeed to know! I appreciate any help!

Anyone else think Angie is absolutely CRINGEY as hell in the episode Sk8ER Boyz? Like more so than usual. First, she says “bullies are just friends who don’t know how special you are yet.” Then tries to force that boy who was looking at china with his mom to go to the movies with Max. Then tells Max that whole bit about Sammy the Skater Penguin. I know it’s just a show, but how can she be so out of touch and not realize that she’s actually making things worse for Max?

her daughter was in max"s class in the episode were they sell Candy to go to Disney world but her daughter no longer existed when she tried to get Randy back as she said she can give him kids, which if her daughter was there Randy would have known.

Zack tells George Carmen ditched him at some club.

Carmen when George finds her at the Hotel says Zack broke up with her
