Lethal Weapon - not sure what to make of this. That had to be most unrealistic car chase scene ever. Two cars onto active race track. Jump off top of speeding car and rollover couple times and that's it. Too silly for cop show, take themselves too serious for comedy.
It was a little heavy on the emotional drama of Riggs' trauma and how he is dealing with it IMO. Murtagh and his family is pretty much exactly what I expect, almost a near direct translation of the film version. The weakest point of the show feels like the guy playing Riggs, and not being able to pull off the craziness combined with comedic timing that Gibson had in the movies.
I get that they don't want to go too heavy on the comedy, but at this point I'm going give it a few episodes and see how it plays out. Partly because I want to see if they can actually pull it together, and partly because Jordana Brewster. The Pilot wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good.
