Fox Renews ‘Lethal Weapon’ for Season Two

Following “The Mick” pickup yesterday, Fox has announced the renewal of Wednesday night action drama “Lethal Weapon” for a second season. “Lethal Weapon” continues to fire on all cylinders,” said David Madden, President, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “Every week, it delivers a big, fun rollercoaster ride, but also remains touchingly human and genuinely emotional, and that’s due to the chemistry that’s developed not only between Damon Wayans and Clayne Crawford, but the entire cast. We want to thank our producing partners, Warner Bros., as well as Matt Miller, McG, Dan Lin and Jennifer Gwartz, who have done a fantastic job in crafting a series for which a second-season order is well deserved.”

Fox is reporting a total multi-platform average audience of 11 million viewers, season to-date, for “Lethal Weapon,” which ranks among the Top 5 new series this season. The total number of new episodes ordered for 2017-18 has not been confirmed.
