FOX's "Lethal Weapon" (Season 3) - Page 11 - Blu-ray Forum

Lethal Weapon gets a third season... without Clayne Crawford or Martin Riggs. Seann William Scott signed on to replace Crawford and as a new character to replace Riggs.

Michael24 · 05-13-2018, 07:32 PM

Yup. I'm out.

Creed · 05-13-2018, 07:36 PM

That's a bad idea, considering the acclaim Clayne received.

The bigm76 · 05-13-2018, 07:41 PM

While it won’t be the same the fact it’s a new character means il give it a shot

kidkash · 05-13-2018, 08:33 PM

Definitely won’t be the same but I love Seann William Scott so I’m down to try it.

R3P0 · 05-13-2018, 09:45 PM

Im out

No Riggs = no lethal weapon; its that simple. The title alone is a description of that character, and always has been.

Exactly. This is dumb. I've always like Seann William Scott, but I'm out. Bye.

Rodney-2187 · 05-14-2018, 12:08 AM

How can you be fine with the second actor to portray the character but not want to give a chance to the third?

Bring on season 3. I'll check it out.

SWS and Wayans should be gold!

Scott is playing a new character, not Riggs.

I'll still give it a chance. Wayans has been great and so has the writing. I can't wait to see what the chemistry between Scott and Wayans is like. If the timing is there, this could be a good thing.

The show exists apart from the movies; its not a continuation of them. Therefore, Clayne Crawford is the first to play the show's version of Martin Riggs. Sean William Scott will be playing his brother, which seems like a stupid decision. I was never that heavily invested with the show to begin with, so its no great loss for me.

Michael24 · 05-14-2018, 01:09 AM

I've never known Sean William Scott to be anything other than obnoxious. No way I could anticipate anything starring him. The show had a great two seasons. It's already ended for me.

KcMsterpce · 05-14-2018, 02:00 AM

Well, that's a shame.
I think they should have just cancelled the show altogether.

I don't dislike Scott, but I can see why people wouldn't like him.
However, no Riggs, no Lethal Weapon. It will not be the same show.
Will it be good? Maybe it will be good. But it's not LW. It's a spinoff of LW.

Blu Lemmy · 05-14-2018, 08:37 AM

And it's a pass from me.....
I'll finish up S2 and knock it on the head

Darev · 05-14-2018, 01:04 PM

I'm torn with this.
I REALLY liked this version of Riggs, much more than really anything else in the show. So part of me wants to just write it off the same way I did Homeland at the end of season 3.

However, I also like SWS and think he's underrated (as a whole). I'll take that and give it a try as if it were a brand now show, watching for the first time.

Kamelot121 · 05-14-2018, 03:02 PM

Yep same once season 2 is finished I'm out. Clayne Crawford has been fantastic and if they are firing him then the show should be finished. There seems to be a lot of people that won't be watching season 3.

Rodney-2187 · 05-14-2018, 08:12 PM

The cast of M*A*S*H changed a few times with no problems. Give it a chance.

This would be like recasting Hawkeye though.

Closest is Two and Half Men - Charlie Sheen for Ashton Kutcher.
