When Manny sends George a check to help him out of financial trouble, George goes to see him in Phoenix, Arizona—and ends up punching him in Benny's honor.

Angie and George often fight, like most couples, but by episode's end they reconnect and validate that they do love each other. As Angie is a beautiful woman, George often worries about her cheating on him. Angie maintains many friends in the Los Angeles area, and stays close with them, often going out to lunch with them when the show focuses on George at the factory. She is very supportive of Carmen in her attempts to find Mr. Perfect, and overprotective of Max. Angie embodies the perfect spouse, in that she loves her family so much, she is willing to do whatever it takes to make them happy,though at times she's portrayed as a goody-two-shoes. She and George never seem to be able to communicate due to her spoiled lifestyle and George's tough life. She is deeply hated by Benny due to her spoiled life and always calls her "princess." She often tries to spoil her kids as her parents spoiled her but George never allows her to do it. She has an extremely cold relationship with Benny as they both hate each other so much. One time a boy slapped Angie on her butt just because she was wearing a bracelet, not knowing it's meaning in a teen fad. She slapped him in the face, knocking out his retainer.

Carmen Lopez

Main article: Carmen Lopez (character)

Carmen Consuelo Lopez (Masiela Lusha) is George and Angie's daughter and their firstborn child, Max's older sister, Benny and Vic's granddaughter, and Veronica's cousin. Her middle name comes from Angie's grandmother Consuela.

She first attended a public school. She is called a slut and teased, causing her to transfer to Allendale Prep, a private prep school. After a year there, she is expelled for numerous counts of running away, public displays of affection, being out-of-uniform, and being tardy. After Allendale Prep, she is briefly home-schooled by an out-of-work Angie before attending St. Teresa's Catholic School. She graduates from there and goes off to college. Carmen had a boyfriend, star athlete Jason MacNamara, for much of Seasons 3 and 4. In early Season 5, he ran away from her after she tried to pressure him into having a baby. She is last seen in flashbacks in the first episode of Season 6. Before Jason she had gone out with Zack Powers. George didn't want her to see him because "everyone" thought he was a troublemaker, but she did anyway behind his back due to her extremely low self-esteem. It has also been implied in many moments that she believes George to be a bad parent and ugly as well. She also dislikes Angie acting like she's still a teenager. Carmen also had a brief feud with Piper Morey.

Carmen's low self-esteem is the main cause why George is so overprotective of her as she will do absolutely anything in order to keep a "hot" boyfriend.

He is an avid skateboarder. He has a crush on Veronica and from time to time hits on her, despite their kinship (Veronica either laughs it off or is creeped out). He can usually be found trying to spy on her, sometimes denying it. In one episode he had a girlfriend named Kristi. At school, Max is constantly frustrated with his dyslexia. He also succumbs to peer pressure, such as dyeing his hair blue, cussing at Benny (this earned him a slapped face), and giving his garage to a band. Max once ended up in the hospital for alcohol poisoning after drinking grain alcohol mixed with fruit punch at a party. Max is greatly attached to his father and looks up to him. It is seen in numerous episodes that he makes decisions based on what his father thinks. They are also kept close by the common factor of both having dyslexia, though Max seems to have a far worse case than George.

Though he is younger than Carmen, Max is seen as being more worldly than his sister and he also enjoys tormenting Carmen.

Later in the series, Max's attitude took a turn to the worse as he begun to act more of a smart-allec and treated George like trash by insulting his failures and mistakes.

When they meet again, Joe only gives Benny a $10 out of George's wallet. He and Benny were estranged for fifteen years over a foolish grudge, but George convinces his mom to see Joe and get "closure" before he dies.

She makes her first appearance in George Testi-Lies for Benny, in which George attempts to get her to speak on Benny's behalf. This fails when Luisa reveals that Benny tried to give George away. During this episode, she admits that she and her husband sometimes had to "spank Benny in the face."(slapping) Despite her relationship with Benny, she appears to get along quite well with George. At episode's end, it was revealed that Luisa had outlived both her husband and Benny's brother. She predicts that Benny will be next, although Benny predicts that it will be Luisa.
