The show, however, has remained strong in the ratings, meaning it could receive a Season 3 renewal — if it can find a replacement. According to The Hollywood Reporter, multiple actors have been directly offered the role but all have passed. The clock is ticking for the series, as Fox is hoping to have a replacement by Monday’s upfront presentation to ad buyers. Much of the crew refused to continue working alongside Crawford, however, leading to his ultimate firing. Meanwhile, Wayans simply retweeted a fan’s suggestion for a replacement, while Lethal Weapon fans have spammed him with numerous tweets, accusing him of “leading the charge” against his co-star.
