Mr. Tall, Dark and Chicano returns to prime-time TV via FX’s all-new series called Saint George which is a celebration of a multi-generational family that humorously wrestles with cultural differences.  This half-hour, multi-camera ensemble comedy that follows the chaotic life of  “George Lopez,” a recently divorced working-class Mexican-American turned successful entrepreneur caught between two cultures.  The TV show brings together a fantastic cast of talented, familiar faces and favorites from other critically acclaims television series.

Saint George struggles to balance the parenting demands of his All-American Anglo ex-wife, “Mackenzie,” played by Jenn Lyon (Justified, Army Wives), and the cultural expectations of his overbearing Mexican-American mother, “Alma”, played by Olga Merediz (Orange is the New Black).  As George attempts to relate to his 11-year-old son, his life is further complicated by his fun-loving but freeloading uncle “Tio” and cousin “Junior” played respectively by David Zayas (Dexter) and Danny Trejo (Machete Kills, Breaking Bad).

The show premieres Thursday, March 6th at 9PM.
