Now that Riggs is gone, will some of the audience of this FOX series depart with him? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Lethal Weapon is cancelled or renewed for season four. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustrated that their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we’d like to offer you the chance to rate all the season three episodes of Lethal Weapon here. **Status update below.
An action-comedy-drama, Lethal Weapon stars Damon Wayans, Seann William Scott, Kevin Rahm, Johnathan Fernandez, Michelle Mitchenor, Keesha Sharp, Dante Brown, and Chandler Kinney. The series follows Detective Roger Murtaugh (Wayans), his LAPD colleagues, and his family at home. After a tragedy, Murtaugh is partnered with Detective Wesley Cole (Scott), a former CIA operative who’s been everywhere and seen everything. How long will it take him to adjust to Los Angeles?

**Status Update 5/10/2019: Lethal Weapon has been cancelled; there will be no season four. Details here.
You guys need to go on & hit the DELETE button b/c this show is embarrassing your network! Your writers have turned it into a big romantic like soap, Not Interested! This new guy, Cole is a WIMP compared to Riggs!!! RIGGS WAS YOUR LETHAL WEAPON- HE WAS WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE TUNED IT TO WATCH!!!!!!!!! MY HOPE IS THAT YOU WOULD ALL EAT SOME CROW AND SWALLOW A BIT OF PRIDE AND DO WHATEVER NECESSARY TO GET CLAYNE CRAWFORD BACK ON THE SHOW OR JUST CAN IT ,PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hilarious show! My husband and I love the addition of Cole. The entire cast is great! Please don’t cancel.
excellent
Clayne Crawford was the lethal weapon. The series is crap without him .
C+3 ratings don’t lie, new fans! show is great! my hats off to the supporting cast, 4th season in the bag! congrats!
CANCEL IT. Or NOT … couldn’t care less. Stopped watching … mediocre writing … horrible plot lines … no believable action … and the acting sucks. Actually … acting sucks is a compliment to what it is! And did I say the writing sucks too? I tried watching … but nope … I quit … erased them all … erased the series on my dvr … and done!
I’ll bet $10 the show gets canceled. Anyone want to take that bet?
I tried watching season 3. I really did. Unfortunately, “sucks” doesn’t even begin to cover it. Without Crawford to cover for him, Wayans’ lousy acting becomes impossible to ignore. He was tolerable, but now isn’t. Jeez, it’s hard to believe that anyone would pay him for what you have to be both deaf and blind to mistake for acting. I guess Sean William Scott is trying his best; unfortunately, his best falls far short of covering for Wayans. In spite of his good looks and obvious talent for fight scenes, he is himself in need of someone to cover for… Read more »
Love the new casting with SWS!!! I was seriously getting really sick of CC and his overacting. I get that the show was based on the LW movie with M Gibson, BUT Gibson didn’t come off as forced, his character came off as authentic. CC came off as a poor mans parody of the classic. My family and I were almost done with the show when the cast change occurred. Watched the next season… wasn’t sure about the first 2 episodes but have quickly warmed up to it. I actually enjoy the episodes now.
Way to miss the point of the show! The main character (which was always Riggs) is SUPPOSED to be wildly unstable, predictably unpredictable, and extreme in a comical way. That’s the entire concept. It’s what makes him a “Lethal Weapon”. The role can’t be overplayed. Take this away, and you have a mediocre show that has nothing to do with the Lethal Weapon concept. I’m noticing that most who find that the show has “improved” are female, though. Could it be that Seann William Scott is more handsome? Nah, men are the superficial and objectifying ones, women only care about… Read more »
I loved Christian Kane, Riggs far better than Cole for the show even though I have hink Cole is a better actor and hang Wayans. Could have done a better job casting Murtau.
Great episode last night!! (We DVR’d it) It was good when Riggs was on, but I actually like the new guy Cole even better!!! I hope the show continues!! I really look forward to watching it! Cole was an excellent addition to the show.
I agree. This show has gotten so much better since Cole joined the cast. It was great before with Riggs, but Cole brings a whole new dimension to it. There are so many more stories to be told with Cole’s CIA background. I notice the ratings are getting better every week. Loving it!
You couldn’t possibly be “noticing” that. The ratings are declining.
C+3 ratings are off the charts!
I agree Danielle. I like the show better with Cole. I keep hoping viewers will give it a chance.
Absolutely loving Lethal Weapon! I hate to say it, but I like Cole better than. Riggs. With Riggs, there was always a darkness because Riggs was suicidal because of the loss of his wife & unborn baby. Totally different dynamic with Cole. Keep Lethal Weapon going! It’s getting better with each passing week.
Only reason I ever subjected myself to Damon Wayans terrible over acting was because I am a fan of Christian Kane and he asked that we support his friends show. Therefore now that Clayne is no longer on it I will never watch it again. #NoClayneNoShow #ClayneIsRiggs when you fire #Divadamon and rehire the real star of your show then I will watch again.
Cancel
I loved the show and I say loved because they have just ruined it for me. The season opener bombed in my eyes… Murtaugh asking to have a partner really? the new guy does not have the spark that Clayne has he was the reason I watched ever week…thanks Wbrothers for ruining it for me…I see that the drop in ratings are sending you guys a clear message…
I still love LOVE the show, at first I was skeptical of the Riggs change but I really like the new guy , he’s a great actor with acting skills that seem believable and as far as C. Crawford ? he had issues with other cast members as well not just D. wayans so let’s not just blame him only. I hope that there is a season 4 I will continue to watch. so instead of recording L W and watching later I will tune in and watch .
