I agree with all other comments. Clayne Crawford makes the show. He is even better than Mel Gibson. I will not be watching Lethal Weapon if Clayne is not brought back.

Give it a chance. No, Really
Boy did i have doubts about this. The trailers certainly made me more optimistic, but I still put off watching the first episode when it came out because i really didn't know what to expect.
Of course its over the top (it is lethal weapon after all) but here's the thing... Right now i'm looking forward to this show every week more than any other. They've completely nailed the casting and characters of Riggs and Murtaugh, from Murtaugh's protectiveness of his family to Riggs's crazy outward charm, thinly veiling a near suicidal depression. More than that though, they've managed to recreate the bromance that made the originals so memorable. That is truly where this show excels, at being a damn good buddy cop story.
So here's my suggestion. Don't expect anything, don't pre-judge it, just watch the first few episodes. If you still don't like it then fine, but i'm betting that if you liked the originals, then you will.

NO CLAYNE NO LETHAL WEAPON! YOU FIRED A GREAT AMERICAN ACTOR!
Clayne Crawford is one of the best american actors & he is the reason why I watched the show. He did an amazing job!! Since you fired Clayne I WON'T watch the show anymore! Many lies were told about Clayne but you have his interview where he opened up about EVERYTHING! Search on youtube for his interview.

Do. Not. Fire. Crawford!!!!!!!!!
It will be the end of this show. Clayne Crawford is a better, deeper Riggs than Mel Gibson ever was, and I LOVE those movies! But this Riggs is deeper and more nuanced. Maybe because there are more hours available to develop him. Firing Crawford will be the end of this show. They are apparently not replacing Crawford with someone else to play Riggs, so at least there is that. But it will be a different show. And not nearly as good. I'm sorry but Damon Wayans and his family is not enough to carry the show forward.

Reminds me of the best of the 1980s
This series really surprised me. It has been a long time since I looked forward to watching a show as much as this one every week. It reminds me of many good 80s cop or detective shows. No one has been able to equal the buddy cop or detective show formula of the 80s until now. Very well done indeed.
