The show is resonating with audiences, but U.S. Latinos have had the strongest impact on the ratings for Lopez vs. Lopez. The show had the highest concentration of English-dominant U.S. Latinos homes among all broadcast primetime series. For the live + 35 (35 days after) viewing, Lopez vs. Lopez it had the highest portion of “long-tail” viewing among all NBC comedies on Peacock, meaning Lopez vs. Lopez is viewed more after its initial episode airing date than any other series on NBC.

With Kurt Sutter’s recent firing off FX’s Mayan’s MC, fans were getting worried that this was a sign of Mayans M.C. demise. However, when the news released yesterday that their beloved series would live to see another ride as it had been renewed for a third season, social media was a-buzz with the good news.

“We’re happy to continue telling the story of Mayans M.C. with our partners at Fox 21 and excited that Elgin James has earned the opportunity to become the series’ showrunner,” said Nick Grad, President of Original Programming at FX Entertainment. “Kurt Sutter identified and chose Elgin as his partner on the show from the outset, and Elgin has been instrumental to the success of the series, leveraging his experience and creative vision to make Mayans M.C. with this incredible cast, crew and creative team.”

Although Sutter had announced earlier this year that he had plans to exit and hand over the reins to Elgin, who he partnered with initially to bring the Latino perspective he did not have, it was a shock that he did not leave on his own terms, rather was fired.

Meanwhile, fans are happy to know there will be a third season because there were many storylines that demanded to be played out. One in particular that got a lot of reaction on social media was about the new “love interest” for EZ, Marisol played by Zulelm Calderon (Nova). Then there is Dita, who seems to be the most hated character so far this season. The one that hardcore Mayan MC fans are rabid about, the treasonous turn of events where Riz (Antonio Jaramillo) gets shot and does not make it.

With so many stories left to finish, a third season renewal send a sigh of relief throughout the country. Mayans MC continues — minus Riz, first of the Mayans to get killed off.
