George Lopez's talk show Lopez Tonight has been canceled after just two seasons on the air, according to Variety.
TBS has chosen not to film a third season, and the show will end with Thursday night's episode. Raven-Symoné and Auggie Smith are currently scheduled as George's guests for August 11.
Just last year, the network moved the show from 11 p.m. to midnight to make room for Conan O'Brien's new talk show Conan.
Lopez Tonight was conceived as a younger, hip talk show to compete with programs like The Tonight Show and The Late Show with David Letterman. Since it began on November 9, 2009, George's show defintiely had its fair share of crazy guest segments, from George shotgunning a beer with Mark-Paul Gosselaar to having a Mexican vs. British food-off with Russell Brand.
Find out what TBS had to say about the decision ... after the jump.

James Franco appeared on Conan last night to promote surprise hit Planet of the Apes, and he revealed that he once made a sex tape!
How refreshing -- a celeb who's not ashamed! Funnily enough, Franco is so weird when it comes to everything else, that the way he talks about making the tape seems normal! Said Franco:
"My girlfriend and I decided to film ourselves. Watched it back and said, 'Yeah, well -- let's never watch that again.'"
Refreshingly humble! We bet you looked good, James!

Kim looks more like she's ready to hit the club than run errands, but we give her points for looking cute! Wonder if the dress is from her Sears collection.
On Tuesday, Kim took a break from Tweeting about her Sears collection and limited edition fragrance sales to talk about a more politically relevant topic. Check out her ... wise ... words after the jump!

Christopher Reid -- the "Kid" in '80s hip-hop duo Kid 'n Play -- was released from jail Wednesday morning after his Tuesday arrest.
Reid, 47, was arrested at his home for missing court dates tied to his July 2010 DUI arrest.
But he was all smiles when leaving jail, saying that his arrest was "clerical" and "totally" a misunderstanding (watch our video below). His last words:
"I love L.A. Peace to the Po-Po."
There had been a warrant out for his arrest since August 2. Bail was set at $26,000. When arrested in 2010, Reid's blood alcohol level was almost double the legal limit. He was sentenced to three years probation and ordered to seek counseling.

Life's a beach for ex-Bachelor winner Vienna Girardi!
After fully recovering from her recent rhinoplasty procedure, the reality star spent her day showing off her new nose, sexy bikini bod and hot new man, Kasey Kahl, in Malibu, at the Voli Vodka Beach House on Tuesday.
Girardi couldn't hide her affection for the Jake Pavelka-look-alike, as they gave us an eyeful with their major PDA on the beach.
Later the pair headed back to the Malibu pad and started doing shots in the driveway. There's nothing better than beach-day drinking on a weekday afternoon! Watch it all in our video below!
It's only been a few months, but things are already serious between the Bachelor season 6 contestant and her new guy. They've reportedly decided to move in together, and Kahl even traveled to Houston to be with Girardi while she had her nose job.
Now that's true love.
Check out a before and after pic of Vienna's nose transformation, after the jump ...
