It's pretty damn good: sharply drawn characters, snappy dialogue, and awesome action sequences. I'm not sure that Clayne Crawford (Rectify) and Damon Wayans Sr. are going to make anybody forget Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, but they'll be more than good enough for the large audience that's never seen the four films, the last of which is nearly two decades old.

These two don't just have chemistry. They have a script that reintroduces Roger Murtaugh and Martin Riggs as characters who are as interesting facing each other across a dinner table as they are during a shootout or car chase.

The plotting and action in this version of Lethal Weapon may not offer much reason to tune in every week, but the Riggs/Murtaugh dynamic pops almost as well as it did on the big screen.

Ridiculous, yes, but it’s a show that is honest about itself, with a surprisingly endearing performance from Crawford. The question, of course, is: Did the world really need another “Lethal Weapon”?

Actually, the casting is pretty great and works well. Everything else about the show is pretty much what you'd expect. There are some fun action scenes and attempts at pathos, especially around Riggs and the death of his pregnant wife that's turned him into such a loose cannon. But Lethal Weapon also feels extremely familiar.

Crawford and Wayans display little rapport. That leaves racing cars, speeding bullets and wannabe wit to prop up an essentially superfluous show.

Lethal Weapon is a near-catastrophic failure. It’s the kind of overbearingly self-serious, sheepishly crass retelling of a story that no one needed to be repeated that we’ve come to expect from similar movie-to-TV adaptations.

Muito bom muito engraçado n e muito difícil de entender a serie as cenas de ação e maneira i e muito legal a historia comove muito e as historias dos carteis

I like this show, not that it makes the movie justice but fun and entertaining. They could have done more, with it but fun to see.

So far, so good. Believe it or not, "Lethal" holds it's own. Yes, there are certain, way too telling, foreshadows and the plots are a little thin sometimes! However, the writing seems to be descent and Clayne Crawford shines with a powerful performance as Martin Riggs. I was extremely skeptical going in, and am pleasantly surprised so far. If they decide to carry a developing story line, this show will only get better.

What a dog, the show has far to much "happy-happy" and political correctness and Riggs' problems with his wife's death are way over done to the point of boring. Get a life comes to mind. Murtaugh's wife, flying the **** flag, is appalling in her character's transparency. The action probably appeals to the per-pubecent set but that's not unusual I suppose. Couldn't stomach the entire series.

Oh darn... more dumbass writing by kids who know **** Regarding the "pilot," one does not slit one's wrist horizontally, but vertically if you actually want to die. A soldier would know that. Just a goofy "buddy show" starring two people who aren't remotely convincing.
