"We just can't get enough of this fam," the network tweeted Friday.

The show features the title characters playing fictionalized versions of themselves who reunite after a years-long estrangement.

Fresh episodes are expected to air in 2024.

"There was a time where we didn't speak and were estranged for about three years," Mayan Lopez said in a virtual press conference ahead of the show's premiere last year.

"But, really, the pandemic brought us back together, and I started making TikToks with my family to reconnect. And [showrunner] Debby Wolfe was scrolling one day and she saw one of our TikToks and this whole Lopez vs. Lopez was kind of born from that idea."

George added: "To have Debby see Mayan do TikToks about our unfortunate break in our relationship and create a beautiful thing from something that was so painful and so much my fault is just a wonderful thing."
