I don't have words to express that Riggs is a great actor. You truly get sucked in because of him. I can't watch it anymore since he left. He was the only reason my husband and I watched it. It will NEVER be the same. Congrats to him for doing a great job.
This series is the perfect example of good things never last. Im still heartbroken he had to leave so soon. Im sure he wasn't acting. Its the way he is. It sucks He made our lives alot better
This show was so good in the first couple seasons, and wow, Clayne Crawford is an incredible actor. He really just brought so much into the show and did an amazing job without trying too hard to play the role exactly like Mel Gibson did.
@@90s_gachalil36 he actually did nothing wrong they were being biased and also blackmailed clayne and refused to send out the full video they were trying to make clayne look bad also the show got cancelled because everyone stopped watching it after riggs got written out
@@90s_gachalil36 hello there, clayne actually did nothing wrong. damon wayans was the one who accoused him pf doing all those bad stuff and it was all a lie. clayne also got blackmailed by warner bros. they fired him so their lies wouldnt come out.
Well if clayne crawford hadn't got fired from the show maybe riggs and cole would've become partners and murtaugh would've become the new captain of lAPD
He could have been saved in season 2 but they killed his character instead. No way for him to come back. It was sort of a "F U" to the actor because of Damon Primadonna Wayan. He was a black man and the studio couldn't fire him over a white guy.
Great collection of clips! When I first got told there was a tv series of Lethal Weapon I thought, "Oh no, what have they done!" but then I started watching it and was totally hooked. Personally I think Clayne Crawford is such a talented actor, he really brought some heart to the role, but without trying to copy Mel Gibson. Claims that the show is boring or stupid make me chuckle to be honest. Each to their own I guess, but how you could class a show with punchy buddy-cop dialogue, lots of action and a big heart as 'boring' is probably more a reflection on that person's life as only boring people get bored. I'm glad Clayne only lasted for 2 seasons though, as it will always be a classic twist on the movies in my opinion and never had a chance to go stale like so many good shows do.
I do not think that the show would have gone stale for a while if Clayne had not been fired. I do think that season 2 was a little boring compared to the first one, but I also think that they could have made it work for a few more seasons if they were given the chance. I find that lots of people who say/state that the show is boring or stupid have not even seen it, or they have only watched one episode. They just tend to say/state that because they have only seen the movies with Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, and they assume that a T.V. show based on said movies would just be preposterous.
7:00 It's understandable for a person to go suicidal after losing that one person that they always had in their life. That one person they trusted will never leave their side.
I'm so pissed at them for not getting along in real life...why couldn't they hang in there until at least season 6. I binged both season in just 2 weeks.
They ruined the show getting rid of Crawford he made this show. Waynes ego ruined it and that showed in season 3, hope they find way to bring it back with different Roger.
This show really had the potential to be phenomenal and it started off as one. Too bad the fallout put a damper on everything and ruined it. Season 1 and first half of Season 2 was excellent.
I don’t think anyone could replace the actor he was amazing and played Riggs perfectly. They should have just let him leave the show, Riggs was leaving anyway they should have let him be happy.
At first I didn't like this Riggs (because of his short hair, and something about the mustache) but eventually, he grew on me (akin to the before mentioned mustache)
Fox Network screwed me out of not just Lethal Weapon but Deputy as well CW is rebooting Walker Texas Ranger I'm going to try a different network hopefully the CW doesn't can Walker too soon
Anyone remember the clip where Riggs and Murtagh fight a wiry little guy and after much ado finally get him hog tied & Riggs throws his hands in the air and exclaims, "8 seconds!"? Not sure which season but I would like to find it!
Gotta say, that even if if things were not good with the actors and the way that the production was done, there is no denying the great way they played off of each other. Their craft and sense of timing was so good and they made this show better than the movies. Everyone has their way of doing things, and some don't back down from their thoughts and feelings on the quality of the production. But! That's not the way to make the best shows by allowing the outsiders that are not acting, to tell the actors they have no say so, or that they don't know what they are talking about. The actors are the ones that are acting, not a directors schedule. Just some how , bring these guys back and treat them as equals.
crawfords indeed a charismatic actor but this rog just dont do it for me and the series is trash with the exception of the doc/riggs scenes. besides that, this programs an insult to the lw we ve enjoyed. and no matter how good claynes acting was, he doesnt do riggs character justice. with another name and the characters named different this thing could ve been something but totally failed as a lethal weapon. they ve missed those bursting riggs/rog discussions, the classic s.o.b. murtaugh lines, the 3 stooges riggs demeanor, and many, many more things. sometimes, its better not messing up with some classics, imagine a series of Leon, the proffesional, can u cast another jean reno or a gary oldman to do a tv show of such a masterpiece? better not to fuck up classics,though. and yes, this trish actress really hot, sorry but i had to be honest, as leo getz (joe pesci) said: full disclosure. sorry but this is kindergartens water weapon.
Steve Mitchell The show did not ruin the goddamn movies. If you want to keep talking like shit then learn to shut up because some people are going to disagree with you because they actually liked the show and if you don’t like then why did you watch it.
