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.

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.

It will absolutely be renewed. There is no chance of FOX cancelling it. One less thing to worry about.
oh we absolutely love this, and pray it will be renewed, I don’t know if viewership is counted if you tape everything, but we dvr all shows.
RENEW please.. i like the show so much..
Love the story line, the humor, and the actors . Please renew.
I like the show…but can’t STAND the weird mustache and hairstyle of the Riggs character! Give him a goatee and do something else with that emo hair.
I have to admit, I wasn’t interested in this show at all. I love the movies so much, I thought it will be… let’s say… not too good. Then I accidentally watched the first episode, and I fell in LOVE immediately. It’s perfect. Great dialogues, great stories, perfect combination of action, humour and emotions. Damon Wayans and Clayne Crawford are great as Murtaugh and Riggs. This show is the best right now. Keep up the good work.
Very entertaining duo that keep the show episode after episode very dynamic.
I love Lethal Weapon. I do not have cable so I watch on Hulu. I hope ratings are given for Hulu. Lethal weapon is one of the few shows that I am joy watching every week I really hope it stays on the air. The duo of Crawford and Wayans really make the show work. I think it is better than the original movie Hopefully it will stay on the air!! Fox please give it a second season !!
Lethal Weapon and Madam Sec best shows on TV right now. Better than original. Entire cast is perfect. Please renew – it makes me smile. We all need a smile.
