TV show description:
This action drama series reimagines the movie franchise and follows a cop duo as they work a crime-ridden beat in modern-day 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” at the LAPD.
He’s paired up with Roger Murtaugh (Damon Wayans). He’s just coming back to the job after a near-fatal heart attack. Riggs’ penchant for diving headfirst into the line of fire immediately clashes with Murtaugh’s prudent, by-the-book technique.
When Captain Brooks Avery (Kevin Rahm) assigns them to their first case together, Riggs drags Murtaugh into a high-speed chase culminating inside the Long Beach Grand Prix and a seaport shootout with drug dealers. Despite his protests, the older cop feels more alive than he has in years.
Meanwhile, Riggs gets a glimpse of why Murtaugh is so determined to get home safely at the end of each day — he’s got a wife, Trish (Keesha Sharp), teenagers Roger Junior (Dante Brown) and Riana (Chandler Kinney), and a newborn baby.
Riggs’ life-on-the-edge attitude makes him a priority case for the department’s psychologist, Doctor Maureen “Mo” Cahill (Jordana Brewster).
Rounding out the precinct is Scorsese (Johnathan Fernandez), a pathologist with the LAPD who got his nickname after a stint in film school (which no one will let him forget).
By the time their first investigation ends, Riggs realizes he may have found something worth living for — a partner and friend, Murtaugh. And even Murtaugh figures this arrangement might just work out after all. If only Riggs doesn’t get them killed first.
Episode #55, “The Spy Who Loved Me”
When Cole is investigated by the FBI, Murtaugh is forced to question his loyalty to his own partner. Meanwhile, Cole works a case that puts Natalie’s fiancé, Andrew, into the crosshairs right before their wedding day.
First aired: February 26, 2019
What do you think? Do you like the Lethal Weapon TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for season four on FOX?
DO NOT CANCEL!!!! While based on the original movies it is fresh, entertaining and a very enjoyable hour. I look forward to watching the show every week (damn baseball). My only complaint is that Trish is a lawyer, instead of the romance novelist she was in the last Lethal Weapon movie.
Love this show – can’t get enough of it – please keep it coming – the chemistry among these characters – all of them is magnificent!!!!
Good to see the boys back. I never expected to like this but glad that I was wrong.
I love this show. No foul language, great characters, story lines and chemistry. Please continue the series.
GOOD DECISION
No,bring it back.it’s drama and comedy what can be better,they have a great cast,waiting anxiously for the new season
Great fun, keep show
Love this show Its got action & likable characters Hope it play on for a long time
My entire family loves this show. Please continue to renew.
Hi I love this TV show much I make sure that I did not missed an episode of the show. Just disaappointed that there is no new episode aired right now.
I live in London and the series will be scheldued every Friday evening, myself and my family will sit down to watch the programme. It is funny and crazy, those two actors certainly gell together. Please let there be a second series and it continues to grow into a third, fourth and so on
Please do not renew this platform for racist hate speaker Damon Wayans. His July 4th comments are despicable and neither I or my family will never purchase any product advertised on that show.
Love the show
I love this show definitely one to watch!
I like the show and I think it should be renewed
