Fresh off of a decent ratings performance across its first three weeks on-air, Fox has handed out a "full season" order to freshman drama series Lethal Weapon. The back order is for a further five episodes, bringing the total number of episodes ordered for season one to eighteen. ITV has struck a deal with Warner Bros. International Television Distribution to acquire the exclusive first run UK broadcast rights to Lethal Weapon, TVWise has learned. The series will air on the main ITV channel this autumn, shortly behind the US premiere on Fox. 
Fox has handed out a hefty put pilot commitment to Lethal Weapon, a TV reboot of the feature film series of the same name which starred Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, TVWise has learned.
