It's been Cancelled.

Thoughts.

Not surprised at all. The rating dropped this season, not just because of Crawford, but when Wayons said he was leaving it was sort of like what's the point of watching anymore. Then he stayed, and it was still like what's the point?

Wayons was leaving the show.
In true Murtaugh spirit, he felt he was too old for this $hit, lol. (long work hours, stunts, etc.)

He stayed for the last 2 episodes that he originally hadn't signed on for I thought? I just quit watching then. Scott did a better job than I thought and was willing to give it a shot. But then it was like, what's the point. It won't last another season. I was right.

I didn't think this had a snowball's chance in hell at surviving once Riggs left and they replaced him with Seann William Scott. He's a ratings killer.

Besides, you can't really call it Lethal Weapon since Martin Riggs IS the damn title of the franchise!

Here's hoping we get a fifth and final installment from the original gang.

I actually thought Sean did a good job in this roll, (and I was surprised to think that).

They should have never called it Lethal Weapon, because honestly, Danny Glover and Mel Gibson are the characters.
True fans were never going to accept anyone else.

They should have called it something else and let viewers be like, hmm, this show looks alot like lethal weapon.

Good riddance, it wasn't good.
