TBS on Wednesday announced that they have cancelled George Lopez’s late night talk show “Lopez Tonight.”

According to a company statement:

“TBS has reached the difficult decision not to order a third season of Lopez Tonight,” while calling the shows host, “an immensely talented comedian and entertainer.”

The show will air it’s final episode tomorrow night (Thursday).

Lopez Tonight began airing in November 2009 as TBS attempted to build a late night talk show series which was later added to when Conan O’Brien signed a deal with the network which pushed Lopez and his show to a later time slot (Midnight).

The network has not said if the series will be replaced by a new talk show, however with Conan remaining as one of the networks flagship programs and O’Brien owning the rights to his own talk show, there’s a chance the comedian may produce a new TV series to follow his own.

If O’Brien creates a new show he would be following in the footsteps of Letterman who in 1995 created “The Late Late Show” per an agreement he forged with CBS.

Lopez’s exit from the network removes the only Latino talk show host during the late night hours.

I will personally miss Lopez who often used hilarious parodies to address serious issues including immigration, children reading programs and other national and international issues.

What do you think about TBS cancelling the show with almost no notice at all for fans of the series. I only hope Lopez was given slightly more notice to prepare for his final episode.

With CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric stepping down from her anchor role, TV network CBS was hoping to keep Couric on their payroll with a new syndicated talk show, however negotiations are now rumored to have ended without a happy ending for the network.

According to CBS insiders, Couric wanted a heavy hand in the company’s news operations, however executives were only willing to give her bit pieces on their news magazine show 60 Minutes.

At this time Katie will part ways with CBS and another rumor is pointing to ABC as the possible future home for Couric, her new syndicated talk show and more than likely some type of involvement in their news operations.

Come back to the Today Show Katie, it will give me a reason to wake up a bit earlier from Monday through Friday.

(And we love it.) Seriously, how easy is it to make fun of somebody like that, especially because his self-esteem is so high and you’d love to take him down a notch or two? The gem of the interview:

Letterman: “What are you doing in your life?”
Pratt: “Working with a 12 year old musician who is better than Jay Z.”
Letterman: “Are you his manager?”
Pratt: “No. I’m his partner.”
Letterman: “No, but seriously, what do you do in life?”

A-MEN.

I respect Spencer a tad more than most after he admitted last year that someone appreciates his appearances every-f-ing-where– his grandma! Apparently she loves seeing him plastered on the gossip rags, and I’m all about being nice to your grams. Points for Spencer. Still not enough to make up for the disaster that was basically the rest of his “career,” though.

Do you think he’ll be making more appearances like this after such embarrassment? Why of course!
