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.

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?
Best TV new tv show this season. The dynamic between Damon and Clayne is great. They don’t even look like they are acting. Everything about the show feels natural. That ‘s what makes it great. And the writing is really good. Some lines are hi!arious and said on point. If Fox cancels this show, they suck!
Even as a fan of the original movies, I ADORE this show! So fun, has great action and character depth. Really really hope it is renewed for season 2!
Worse show on tv. Dum p it
Really? What planet are you on? This show rocks! Better than the muched hyped Designated Survivor which is slow and often boring.
