Saint George

[fatediesel]

FX has picked up a new sitcom starring George Lopez. It has the same 10/90 model as Anger Management and Tyler Perry's House of Pain in which 10 episodes are initially picked up and if the show meets certain ratings goals then 90 additional episodes are ordered. Those 90 are produced much faster than typical shows and about 40 episodes are taped each year. Production for the show will begin in August.

Saint George marks Lopez’s first starring role in a sitcom since his long-running ABC series, George Lopez. The multi-camera ensemble comedy revolves around the chaotic life of a recently divorced working class Mexican-American turned successful entrepreneur. In the sitcom, Lopez will portray a man who struggles to balance his demanding ex-wife, his 11-year-old son, his overbearing mother who just moved in, and his uncle, as well as his new role as a philanthropist “giving back” by teaching history once a week at a night school.
