George Lopez Announces Retirement From Stand-Up After His Prime Video Comedy Special

Buy Me A Coffee

In a move that’s shaking up the comedy world (and probably sending therapists scrambling for new material), George Lopez, the 63-year-old legend of laughs, has officially announced he’s hanging up his mic. During an appearance on The Tamron Hall Show, George said, “Enough is enough, America. You’ve endured my nonsense long enough. Time for me to retire before I turn into a human dad joke.”

If that wasn’t dramatic enough, George dramatically retired on air. Over the summer, he left a California show early, making fans wonder if he’d just realized Netflix dropped a new series and needed to run home to binge. Turns out, that was the start of his goodbye tour.

“This is it, the final curtain,” George said with all the seriousness of a guy who still cracks jokes about tacos. “Stand-up has been the one thing that’s stuck with me my entire life, like gum on a shoe. But it’s time to go out on top… or at least while I still have all my teeth.”

The “last one” George is referring to? Oh, nothing major, just his Prime Video comedy special, which was filmed at the iconic Dolby Theatre on September 27th and 28th. So if you’re craving one last dose of ALLLRIIIIGHHTTT! (yes, that’s literally the title of the tour), keep your eyes peeled for the release. The date’s still a mystery, kind of like when we’ll all finally figure out how to unsubscribe from those “limited time offer” emails.

But why now, George? Why leave the stage when you’ve still got that sweet stand-up magic? Well, turns out, he wants to spend more time with his daughter, Mayan. Awww, cue the heartstrings. Together, they co-created Lopez Vs Lopez, the NBC comedy where George plays… surprise… himself. Yup, the man has a range like a microwave, but hey, it works!

As for Lopez Vs Lopez, it’s coming back for Season 3. Because what’s better than double the Lopez in your life? Answer: nothing. So while George may be saying adios to stand-up, he’s not going anywhere. He’s just moving from “making you laugh at his life on stage” to “making you laugh at his life on TV.”

Final thoughts? George is hanging up the mic, but don’t worry—he’ll still be delivering those Lopez-style punchlines, now with extra dad jokes. And who knows? Maybe one day he’ll come out of retirement, like every rock band ever. ALLLRIIIIGHHTTT! indeed.
