Lopez vs. Lopez returned to NBC in the 2024 TV schedule to bring more laughs to Friday nights, and the sitcom that brought George Lopez back to primetime has more in store for the 2025 TV schedule . A Christmas episode is next up for the comedy, which just reminded me of some truly heartwarming comments from Boy Meets World alum and Lopez vs.
Lopez director Danielle Fishel that really make me feel ready for the holidays. When I spoke with the fan favorite actress/director, she shared her "favorite things" about working with the sitcom legend. Danielle Fishel was recruited to direct no fewer than five episodes of Lopez vs.
Lopez 's third season, including one showcasing Roastmaster General Jeff Ross and the most recent episode ahead of a brief break. (You can stream all of Season 3 so far with a Peacock subscription .) I spoke with her earlier in the fall about working with George Lopez, and she opened up about what she has especially loved about the experience: Sitcom legend, comedy legend, all around truly wonderful human being.
I had no idea if we were going to have anything in common, and just right off the bat. One of my favorite things about George is he really pays attention to the people he's talking to and he's working with. And he noticed that I wore a lot of vintage t-shirts, and so every day, it kind of became a game.
Like, 'What vintage t-shirt are you wearing today?' And we'd talk about it, and if it was a band, he'd tell me if he had any experience with that ban.
