TBS TV has CANCELLED Lopez Tonight with George Lopez -- but there's an even bigger story here -- Conan O'Brien is failing at the network as well.
TBS just announced the last show will air tomorrow night. It's been on the air for 2 seasons.
Now the bigger story. It looks like Conan did to George what Jay Leno did to Conan. You'll recall, when Jay Leno came back to NBC, his 10 PM show tanked and killed Conan's ratings.
Lopez had the 11 PM time slot for its first season, but later when Conan came to TBS a year ago he took over the 11 PM slot and Lopez moved to midnight -- basically George was relying on Conan to deliver a good lead-in for his show.
As soon as the change was made, George's audience dropped 40%.
On Monday, Conan's rating was 0.5 in the key demographic (18 - 49) with 715,000 viewers -- and that's on a typical day. George's ratings hovered around 0.2, with 400,000 viewers. Source URL: https://newinsightsblogs.blogspot.com/2011/08/george-lopez-tv-show-tonight-cancelled.html
