FOX Gives Full Season Order for 'Lethal Weapon'
FOX has ordered a full season for the action drama Lethal Weapon, based on the film franchise, with five extra episodes coming. President of Entertainment David Madden made the announcement, totaling 18 episodes for season 1.
“Lethal Weapon delivers an explosive and wildly entertaining core relationship between two cops, with dynamic performances by Damon Wayans and Clayne Crawford, surrounded by cinematic action, endearing humor and true heart,” said Madden. “Matt Miller, McG, Dan Lin and Jennifer Gwartz have done a tremendous job on this show, which has proven to be a self-starter and solid companion for Empire. We are thrilled to add these episodes to Lethal Weapon’s first season.”
The premiere was FOX's highest in two years for the fall season, with 12.4 viewers tuning in to the series across all platforms to date.
