    Damon Wayans . He did an interview stating he was leaving Leathal Weapon after the 13 episodes for his health

    As much as you would love to think it, it aint so. You’re not that funny. Total Dave Chappelle move.

  8. quizzabella says

    Damon Wayans is leaving Lethal Weapon. Damon Wayans Jr to take over from him. Won’t work – people stopped watching after Clayne Crawford was fired, replacing Murtaguh as well? Might as well just make a whole different buddy cop show.

    Show: Lethal Weapon
    Actor: Damon Wayans
    Son: Damon Wayans he

    Optional: It might work, but they changed the whole premise of the show. Which was about a older police officer, paired with a young reckless hot shot police officer. They might as well cancel the show. Too many cast changes.

    Damon Wayans.

    Nope to his son. The change has been horrible already. I’ve quit watching. I loved Clayne Crawford!

    Daman Wayans

    I don’t know his son’s name

    No, I don’t think it would work. His character is suppose to be mature not younger.

  21. mystifyUK says

    Damon Wayans leaving Lethal Weapon as he feels he’s too old to be working so hard.

    His son is Damon Wayans Jnr and looks and acts just like him, so can’t see why that wouldn’t work. I actually thought his son should do it as soon as I heard he was leaving. Junior is just like a mini me is Senior.

    Actor/Son: Damon Wayans (rumored to be leaving “Lethal Weapon”). His son is Damon Wayans Jr.

  27. aaaPanda says

    Mark Harmon from NCIS and his son Sean?
    Sean had a few appearances in the series before.
    Would it work? I doubt it. Actually, rather than benefiting from nepotism, I would hope the son felt he should (and could) make his own way in life.

  28. JoshuaTree says

    Damon Wayans on ‘Lethal Weapon” with Damon Wayans Jr. He’s 35 and can handle the workload and was great in “Happy Endings.” Makes perfect sense and could keep the show going. Roger Murtaugh Jr!

  33. lazyninja says

    Actor/Son: Damon Wayans. Not sure about the son since a Damon, Jr. sitcom just started on CBS and Michael hasn’t done much acting in the last decade. Frankly, I like the Wayans family and would watch regardless of which one of them was on Lethal Weapon.

  37. Kellikopter says

    Wayans on Lethal Weapon. I think that Wayans’ son would be a great and believable replacement.

  38. cocobeans says

    actor: damon wayans
    son: damon wayans jr.
    it might not work, i can’t see lethal weapon lasting too much longer after all this drama

  39. GooglyMoogly says

    Damon Wayans
    Damon Jr…

    I don’t know enough about the show or his son to know. Maybe? Probably?

  44. FiyahHotFlashy says

    Actor/Son: Damon Wayans and DW, Jr.

    [Optional] Do you think that would work? Yes…i just might watch Lethal Weapon

  45. with a twist says

    Damon Waynes/Damon Waynes Jr with Lethal Weapon being the TV show.

    I don’t watch it, but I loved his son on the show Happy Endings!

  46. Pudding says

    Actor/Son: Damon Wayans/Damon Wayans Jr.

    Isn’t JR on that Happy Together show? Or are we predicting early cancellation there?

  47. carnivoro says

    Damon Wayans
    LETHAL WEAPON
    and who is his son ? hopefully he will be as entertaining as Damon. That show should really just be canceled after all of these issues.

  48. nylahou says

    Damon Wayans

    I don’ t think it’ll work because his character is supposed to be much older.

  55. blessurheart says

    Damon Wayans/Damon Waynans Jr.

    Honestly, when I read the story, I thought of his son too. He would pair well with the new lead Sean William Scott. Hope it works out for all of them they are an incredibly talented family!

  56. amagod121 says

    Why does this blind SHRIEK Michael Douglas??? And his son is Cameron Douglas, of course.

    Optional: Minor detail: Can the kid act at all? And even if so, why should he be handed a starring role? No, I don’t think it’d work. People would resent him too much.

    • dysturbed says

      Michael Douglas isn’t on a tv series, so it doesn’t “shriek” him in the slightest.

  57. PrincessPJ says

    Mark Harmon, son Sean Harmon.

    No. But Sean is an actor and has been on the series so… /shrug.

    NCIS is not the same without Pauley.
