Sounds terrible, but I'm glad Sarayu Blue is getting some work (and a lead role at that!). She was one of the highlights of No Tomorrow.

I saw this article in regards to some of the other cast sticking up for Clayne Crawford, not wanting him fired. One in particular drew my interest, from Damon Wayans:

Damon Wayans has also voiced his support of Crawford on his own Twitter account, re-tweeting fans begging FOX to reconsider any decisions to fire him.

This is conflicting information I've heard on how both Crawford and Wayans have not gotten along at all and it had seemed to me it was Wayans relationship with Crawford that maybe was the driving force of it. If that is not the case, then I stand corrected for my prior post.

Here is the article:

I'm days behind b/c I somehow wasn't following the thread this month, but the Lethal Weapon thing pisses me off. It was easily the best show the wife and I share the past couple years.

Maybe I've missed an article, but everything I read casts Wayans as the bad guy in my mind. He comes off like a diva and has the studio behind him because he's the big star. Crawford made the show, or more accurately was my favorite character. The chemistry between the two was amazing.

I usually don't get too petty with shows, but I doubt we give a re-cast a watch.

Could be true. Could also be trying to salvage a bit of a "good guy" image with the fans.

Hell, most likely is trying to keep the series from being cancelled.

This late in the game, feels like a move to be honest. Where was the support weeks ago?

Thought Wayans was fine and taking a tv gig was just a lark more than anything.

Edit: extra lol, Wayans claims his Twitter account was 'hacked' . Pack it up.

Haha, at first I thought it could be that the Crawford support was because a new star couldn't be found, but now the hack tweet.

The drama!

There are rumors of a possible meeting between Alcon and Amazon concerning The Expanse. Jim Murray, VFX guy, is urging fans to keep the email and tweet campaign pressure on Amazon right now.

Figured I'd loop y'all in here in case there are fans of the show who aren't following the cancellation thread.

I wonder if Netflix's deal with WB for Gotham is still in place, they made a deal before it even started for nearly 2 million an episode.

Deadline seems to be saying there's still a chance for Gotham. Don't give up hope yet...

With Wayans and Scott as new leading duo, Lethal Weapon has been renewed for a third season about 24 hours before Fox is slated to unveil its fall 2018 schedule to advertisers at its upfront presentation. There is no renewal decision yet on WBTV's remaining series at Fox, Gotham, which is still being considered for next season.

I don't know if I can do Season 3 of Lethal Weapon. Seann William Scott is not Clayne Crawford nor do I think he has the cajones to fill the role...

Damn you FOX.

Edit: Oh brother not that cliche cop out.

Lethal Weapon has already pulled one brother out of thin air, why not another? *rolls eyes*

This....is horrible news. Is Lethal Weapon even really that popular of a show? Gotham can't get canceled before Agents of Shield, that is a huge injustice

Considering Agents of SHIELD's prospects are presently relatively dim, too, this Agents of SHIELD diehard is here to inform you your huge injustice may not be of any concern.

It has a strong 2nd/3rd season but yeah...that's about it imo

That's weird, you have the 3rd season listed as being strong, but neglect to mention the amazing 4th season...

It looks like they had to clear up a ton of space for Football?

the 4th season alone sold me on the show. They were able to take a 21+ season and make it still feel fresh every 7-8 episodes. Never seen anything like it before on a tv show that long and now I want to see more shows do something similar.

This current season though just hasnt been the greatest imo. I hope it can redeem itself if it gets renewed. I think it needs something new tbh. Not sure what, but I dont want to see it go just yet.

Season 4 is widely considered is the best in the series and one of the best seasons of any live action comic show.

It is a good show, a great one actually.
