'Lethal Weapon' Season 3: Erica and Cole's budding relationship helps love conquer show's missteps

Despite its troubled past, 'Lethal Weapon' has shown us that it still is the funny buddy cop show we once loved and adored

'Lethal Weapon' is making a buzz on social media again and, this time, for all the right reasons. The most recent twist on the show appears to have soothed many hearts that were aching from the loss of Clayne Crawford last season in the best way possible.

While there are fans out there who are still upset about Crawford's exit — and the circumstances that led to it still remain murky — the last episode of the buddy cop drama has brought a new ray of hope for the show and made us want to get behind 'Lethal Weapon' once again — all thanks to Erica and Cole. The two finally "leaned in" and expressed their feelings for each other giving someone other than Roger Murtaugh a shot at love on the show.
