Lopez Vs. Lopez Renewed For Season 2 At NBC
The Lopez family is sticking around on NBC. Lopez vs. Lopez has been renewed for a second season.
Lopez vs. Lopez began its broadcast run airing on Friday nights where it drew strong ratings for its time slot. In April, NBC announced that the final three episodes of the season would air on Tuesday, taking over the American Auto slot after that show wrapped its second season. With the move, Lopez vs. Lopez scored the coveted lead-in from Night Court, in an effort to get even more eyeballs on the series as NBC made plans for its 2023/24 season.
