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.
3/17 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

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.

We were not going to watch this because we didn’t see how you could make a to series from the films but we are so glad we watched the first episode because it was so good. The characters all work well, it’s fast, it’s funny and we’ve come to love our Friday night episodes in the UK. We really hope they make more series.
I really like it. It is a great show. I was glad to see more shows were ordered, but would be more encouraged if the network would make a bigger commitment. There’s very little to watch on Wednesdays as it is. Keep this show going please.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SHOW!! VERY ENTERTAINING! I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU ARE NOT BRINGING IT BACK. PLEASE RECONSIDER!!
HELL YEAH !!!!!!!!
I really did not think I would like Lethal Weapons T.V series base off of the movie, but this show is great. I do not care for the show that took their place. When is it coming back on?
