Lethal Weapon was a very successful movie franchise but reimagining movies as TV shows have had a very mixed track record. Will this FOX series be a hit in the ratings? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On the Lethal Weapon TV show, two very different cops are forced to work together on the streets of Los Angeles. Grief-stricken after the loss of his young wife and unborn child, ex-Navy SEAL-turned-detective Martin Riggs (Clayne Crawford) moves to California to “start over”. He’s paired up with family man Roger Murtaugh (Damon Wayans) who’s just coming back to the job after a near-fatal heart attack. Can these two live long enough to learn to work together? The rest of the cast includes Kevin Rahm, Keesha Sharp, Dante Brown, Chandler Kinney, Jordana Brewster, and Johnathan Fernandez.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
2/22 update: FOX has renewed Lethal Weapon for a second Season. Details here.

Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Lethal Weapon TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
This is the only show I truly enjoy. Lethal Weapon must be renewed!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SHOW!! Please renew it!!!!!
I just love this show. So much more than the movies although they were funny and Glover & Gibson played off each other well. The show, tho, has far more depth. I love the friendship as it deepens between Riggs & Murtagh. There is true connectiveness & they feel like family. It’s easy to connect with these characters. The finale was heart breaking but expected considering the bond the two detectives have created and choosing ‘Stand by ne’ was very effective. I look forward to next season.
I love this series. Story line keeps you wanted to see the next episode. Characters have evolved into a family making you love them all. Please renew.
RENEW!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME SHOW KEEP IT GOING!!!!!!!

Season finale was GREAT!
Please renew, it’s one of the best shows on television. I love Lethel weapon and it has the perfect cast. Martin Riggs and Murtaugh are exceptional.
Yes please make more episodes this is an amazing show for TV I can’t get enough of it. I love all the actors and all the story’s and action it has everything I always wanted in a TV show. This show has to stay on. If I were a billionaire I’d make sure this show stays on the air. We want to know what happens next in Mexico. I vote 1 billion yeses X 100 billion.
Excellent show please renew and keep on the air. Every show is exciting to watch.
My husband and I look forward every week to watch Lethal Weapon. When I heard that it may be cancelled, I was upset. I think the show has paid tribute to the movies, but actors Clayne Crawford and Damon Wayans have great chemistry. There is a good mixture of action and comedy between the two and it would be a big mistake to cancel this show. Give it time to draw in a bigger audience because it is worth it. PLEASE, PLEASE, KEEP THIS GOING.
Please bring back for a second season so I can see what happens in Mexico.
This is the greatest show I have ever seen. Please please please keep it going and don’t stop
