News about TV renewals and cancelations is always a bloodbath, and the 2018 cancelation news was no different.
But some shows received mixed news. The Lethal Weapon TV series has been renewed for a third season, but with an unexpected twist.
Clayne Crawford, one of the lead actors on the show, will not be returning. His role will be recast.
A number of fans took to Twitter to express their shock and outrage. A number of them even directed their ire at his costar, Damon Wayans, whom they blamed for the casting decision.
Damon tweeted that he was not responsible … but also revealed that he was not sad to see Clayne go.
Why? Because, among other things, he says that Clayne injured him on set, and that he was not Clayne"s only alleged victim.
Things got very heated, and he even shared a short video of himself receiving an injury. Take a look to see his tweets and Clayne"s response to the news.
