'Lethal Weapon': How fans moved on from the Clayne Crawford saga as Seann William Scott saves the day

Lethal Weapon has had a really turbulent year - Clayne Crawford's firing, the social media war and then Damon Wayans' exit announcement really rocked the boat.

It's no secret that post Clayne Crawford's exit this April, the 'Lethal Weapon' fandom has been less than delighted with the show. Apart from the drama that went off beyond the screen, fans were also angry about the way Clayne's character was cut out of the show. After two seasons of giving the show the most badass lead ever, he was thrown out of the story like a common criminal, most fans had felt. Some even threatened to boycott the show at the time but it looks like the wheel is turning. Fans seem like they are definitely ready to move past the agony that was the last couple of months and fall back in love with their beloved show.
