'Lethal Weapon': How a strong start spiraled into a countdown to extinction after the sacking of much-loved star Clayne Crawford
Once a series that managed to get on par with the iconic 'Lethal Weapon' films by Shane Black and also be just as commercially successful, the show has become a tragic confusion
It is no secret that the future of 'Lethal Weapon' is in muddy waters after this season. The show, currently on its third season, had been an unlikely candidate for such a future when it first aired in 2016. However, two seasons, a casting switch and ample backlash later, 'Lethal Weapon' has become one of those shows in Fox's list of programming that will be remembered for controversy. Once a series that not only managed to get on par with the iconic 'Lethal Weapon' films by Shane Black but also be just as commercially successful, the show has become a tragic confusion. So how did it all go so wrong for this buddy cop drama?
