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?
Love this show. My new favorite!!
Please renew. Love this show.
One of only two tv series I watch on a regular basis, it is action-packed, warmly moving, pro-family, and funny. I love how the characters have developed – they are now “old” friends.
I LOVE THIS SHOW!! Please Please RENEW IT!!
Its not realistic. The main character is a barely functional drunk & a slop. I really doubt that any PD would keep him around. I don’t really care if you cancel it or not. I’ve stopped watching it already.
Love it please renew my all time favorite show!!!
I’m very bias, because my daughter is a member of the cast, but putting that aside, this show is entertaining with many upsides, I’m waiting for all the women of the show finding themselves in a true world situation. So many ways for this show to expand and grow. This is a keeper!!
I LOVE this show! Please keep it coming…
Absolutely love this show.NEVER shut it down, please.
love the show. It is in my top two now
Love the show, look forward every Tuesday to watch. Love the story line between the two guys, it remind me of the movie
another dumb remake. horrible. pure garbage.
I’d rather watch the original movie a zillion times.
Love this show !! Only one I see every week.
we love this show
Do Not cancel. Love it.
