What is Lopez vs Lopez about?
Season 1 of Lopez vs Lopez premiered in November 2022. In the show, George Lopez plays a fictionalized version of himself, while his real-life daughter, Mayan Lopez, stars alongside him. The characters explore the complicated dynamic of their relationship together with a great sense of humor along the way.
In Season 1 we saw George and Mayan have discussions about George's struggles with alcohol and Mayan's experience being a child of divorced parents. We also saw an awesome slew of guest stars, including the rapper Snoop Dogg for the Season 1 finale. Season 2 will have an impressive roster of guest stars, as well: Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias, Diana Maria Riva, and Marshawn Lynch.
Season 2 guest stars will also include Vanderpump Rules' Scheana Shay and Brock Davies
They'll play characters named Erica and Justin in an episode slated to air April 23. Erica and Justin are Mayan (Mayan Lopez) and Quinten’s (Matt Shively) rival parents at Chance’s (Brice Gonzalez) school. When both of their children get into the gifted program, the rivalry escalates to a battle of brains.
"I think [the show] is an amalgamation of the writers' cultural experience in the Latinx community as a whole," Mayan told NBC Insider. "We’re just trying to tell our story and it’s going through the vestibule of our relationship, so there are things that are very similar."

"When you watch it, the audience will see that there are really moments when I’m just talking to my dad," she added. "This show has so much heart, and it’s funny."
Mayan also opened up to TheWrap in a vulnerable moment about the show's heart and what it means to her and the rest of the cast. “I think with this show, it was really a no-brainer of if everyone’s available, we got to do this for not only ourselves, but for the fans, the people that have loved this show for so many years and have listened with their families. And that’s also generational, and also being able to introduce a whole new era, a whole new generation to the original show … Being able to have them all together was really beautiful,” she said.
