When is 'Lethal Weapon' back on air, and what can we expect in 2019?

Fear not. 'Lethal Weapon' has not been canceled. The show is going on a temporary hiatus and will return in a couple of weeks with a new time slot

'Lethal Weapon' will not be airing any new episodes this week. Before you panic and wonder if the show has been canceled, let us give you the good news. 'Lethal Weapon' has not been canceled but is going on a temporary hiatus. The show is taking a fall break and will return in a couple of weeks with a new time slot.

The show's return date may possibly spell disaster for its ratings, though. It falls on January 1, which is a holiday. Generally, the time between Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve has low ratings on all networks, which is why the shows take a fall break in the first place. It is also worth noting that 'Lethal Weapon' hasn't had the best ratings or viewership in the last couple of weeks and this return could just get lost in the flurry of the holiday season.
