As we previously mentioned, Conan O'Brien will return to late night with a new show on TBS.

The show will begin at 11p.m. which will push George Lopez's Lopez Tonight to midnight - and he seems to be okay with it!

"I can't think of anything better than doing my show with Conan as my lead-in," said Lopez. "It's the beginning of a new era in late-night comedy."

Very gracious, George! As usual.

      This can only be a win-win situation for Lopez. Even though his show is being moved an hour later, he will likely have higher ratings and broader demographics with Conan as his lead-in.

      I'd rather watch George :)

      Lopez should be deported for being a no-talent, not funny undocumented dumb-ass!

      I absolutely love George Lopez. He is hilarious and a revolutionary in the entertainment business. He is a Latino man who is proud of his heritage and doesn't try to conform :)

      George Lopez HAS to love this… all the people that will be watching his show now…. It's a big plus for George.

      What a crock. There's no way a performer like Lopez is going to be pleased to play second fiddle and be pushed back into late night oblivion. He may be a better actor than I thought.



    11. 11

      not for nothin but the cable networks have a better late night lineup than cbs, abc, and nbc…tbs, E, and comedy central's shows are way better.

      Re: Carlops54 – REALLY IS THAT WHAT YOU SAY! YOUR A RACIST AND A BIGOT. I'VE READ YOUR OTHER COMMENTS AND I'M JUST WONDERING WHY YOU EVEN BOTHER COMING ON THIS SITE SINCE YOU HATE EVERYONE IN THE WORLD. THIS IS A GAY LATINOS SITE THAT YOU LOVE TO COME ON AND WRITE YOUR CRAP. COME OUT OF YOUR DENIAL CLOSET GOD KNOWS WHAT YOU REALLY ARE.

      Jay Leno could learn something from George Lopez. I've followed George's career since the hey-days of him performing at the Improv, as well as watching him on ¡Que Locos!. He's a great comedian, very humble and someone who is always putting Latinos in a very positive light. He's a current Latino trendsetter.

      Also, I'm thrilled to see Conan O'Brien back on late night — where he rightfully belongs. Him and George will make a great late-night combination, indeed! TEAM COCO & TEAM LOPEZ!

      I love them both, absolutely adore them! But I still like George better, I can´t help it, he´s my favorite. THANK YOU TBS!!!!



    15. 15

      Yeah, the network asked Lopez first, and Conan even called him to be sure. George isn't stupid: He knows that Conan would be a great lead in to his show, upping his own viewership.



    16. 16

      Love Lopez. He rocks late night.. Conan sucks ass. Wont be wactching him. But some nights with Lopez later, I may not get to tune in.



    17. 17

      Re: Psycho I Be – Thank you. I couldnt have responded to Carlops54 any better than you did. Big ups to you!



    18. 18

      Re: Carlops54 – YOU'RE A RACIST AND IDIOT! WHY DO YOU HAVE SUCH HATRED AGAINST LATINOS? IF YOU HATE LATINOS SO MUCH, GET OFF THIS SITE BECAUSE IF YOU HAVENT NOTICED ITS CREATED BY A LATINO!



    19. 19

      Hey, did you guys know that he's a Latino? betcha didnt! anyways, unfortunately nobody watches his show now. At least with Conan on before him he will have a great lead-in and probably score much better ratings.



    20. 20

      oh the shoe is on the other foot now Conan. You ran with 32 million and were pissed you might be pushed back and everyone came down on Jay and now you are doing the same thing. YOU AREN'T FUNNY.



    21. 21

      Ruin it??????? Conan will put TBS on the map! Hoooray for Coan's deal-hope to tune in and see Sandra Bullock as his first guest.



    22. 22

      yiou got screwed but you don't have the clout



    23. 23

      Lopez is smart because he figured Coco will add Coco audience to his.
