Plot Synopsis

This half-hour sitcom follows the chaotic life of a fictional version of George Lopez, a recently divorced working class Mexican-American turned successful entrepreneur caught between two cultures and wrestling with those cultural differences. George struggles to balance the parenting demands of his All-American Anglo ex-wife, Mackenzie, and the cultural expectations of his overbearing Mexican-American mother, Alma. Plus, as George attempts to relate to his 11-year-old son, Harper, his life is further complicated by his fun-loving but freeloading uncle Tio and cousin Junior. Plus, George gives back by teaching history to a multi-cultural classroom at a night school in downtown Los Angeles, where he's supervised by tough and sexy Assistant Principal Concepcion. FX has ordered 10 episodes of SAINT GEORGE, and an additional 90-episode order will automatically be triggered if the series meets designated ratings thresholds during its initial 10-episode run.
