Lucifer TV Series
 

Check out the trailer for the Lucifer TV Series, Which is based on the DC comic character, Which was a spinoff of the Sandman comics.

Just watched the (leaked) pilot. Loved Tom Ellis, very charming and funny. I wish this was airing now; I'm hungry for more. :P

Hopefully this is the only thread.



Anyway, did anybody else catch this? I thought it was really good. I'm definently going to stick around and see how it goes. Worth checking out.

IGN said it wasn't that good and took liberties from the comics. I bet this show will be just like Constantine and cancelled before its 1st season is done.

I'll watch anything with Lauren German in it.

Really great show imo

Just finished ep1; I love it.

This is my kind of schmaltz. It's just corny enough, without being completely terrible.
I like the spin; he's a hedonistic cat, with a vindictive streak.

Also, loads of hot people.

I.LOVE.THIS.SHOW.

Why? What is wrong with me? So much bad acting, so predictable...

I'm hooked.

He just played fetch with a kid. Damn you Bruckheimer.

Yeah I'm loving this too. Don't know anything about the comic, but this is fun, clever in a twisted way, and Lucifer is so danged honest about exactly who and what he is, which a refreshing take on the "Prince of Lies". And apparently, he thinks kids are like dogs.... :trolleye:

Exactly. I'm not a believer, but as far as Devils go, this one is the most... plausible? He's fun to watch...

I'm not sure how you categorize this particular brand of humor, but I laugh...the fetch line was classic.

Idk, guilty pleasure... Glad someone else agrees...


Lauren German has a great insta and Twitter, has a wildly sardonic wit, and might be one of the sexiest women alive -

But damn, she's a terrible actress. She needs to find the character...hell, find any character, and give it a go. Maybe she's just, bad?

I like the fact that he thinks of humans as toys to play with, but gets mad if someone breaks one of his favorites or interferes in his games with them. This is exactly how I've always thought a higher power would see us. We are their entertainment....

I can't believe this but Lucifer gets a second season.

A deal with #Lucifer has been made. http://fox.tv/LuciferS2 #LuciferSeason2

As a huge Constantine fan this annoys me that Constantine got shafted by NBC and CW never bothered to pick it up. but this show is actually doing well

Well I'm glad. I love the show.

So glad to see it's getting another season! I'm really digging this show which has possibly surpassed Sleepy Hollow and Gotham as my favorite current show.

I watched episode 2 last night, not a fan.

I'm not sure how you can do a extremely loose adaptation of the Lucifer comic and still make a generic, safe and incredibly boring Devil, even more so the then the comic version.

It just felt like the run-of-the-mill cop and quirky character team-up show, and the actor almost feels like he's doing a parody of David Tennant's Purple Man and The Doctor.

Which is a shame, cause Lucifer is a pretty cool character in Sandman. So there's something there to work with even though the spin-off Lucifer comic is a bit lackluster.

I watched the trailer and I liked it. I thought it was interesting and funny. I never heard of the comic until I looked up the show on the Internet. Too bad Lucifer hasn't been picked up an Irish tv channel yet, as I'd probably like to watch the show.

This series...:(
Totally screwed up what could have been fun.

Was 8/10, now maybe a 2/10.

:tvomit:

How so? We've got an ex keeping dirty secrets, a kid who idolizes the literal devil, an angel trying to manipulate and/or force him back to Hell, and a psychiatrist who can't say no to him. Even a plot to assassinate him! It's been bretty d@mn fun so far.

Season two starts in a couple of weeks! Just caught the preview, and- Lucifer has a MOTHER?! :teek: I'm guessing Lilith maybe? This could be interesting.

I wouldn't be surprised if they deviated even more from the comics. Since lucifer and Michael was created first by Yahweh as a catalyst to creation, and the rest of the host was created later.

Or it's just a nickname to Lilith, since she's the first woman.

I've heard great stuff from a friend I really trust and it seems like my type of show. I didn't even know this was a thing. Is this in continuity with the Constantine show?

No Constantine and Lucifer are separate continuity's

This show has been recommended to me a few times so I will give it a look.
I also heard that Tom Welling is season 3, not sure how true that is though.

It's true. He's a cop named Lt. Marcus Pierce.

Cool thanks for that :)

I finished watching season 1 of Lucifer and I don't know. Show is alright but I can't say I love it or that I'm anxiously waiting for S2 to show up.

The "I am Lucifer" persona while awesome, kind of got old after a few episodes. The finale was a lot of fun but yeah it didn't hit the highs the first episode had.

This show needs more dark humor and it tried too hard to show you "look the devil is changing for the good" that was so over done.


Is S2 more of S1 or does it take my criticism into account?

We are way behind on Lucifer over in the UK, season 1 comes up as 'new' I've watched a couple of eps and was surprised to see a few familiar faces from other shows. So far I like it, not sure if we're likely to catch up with the US though.

Season three starts on Monday. So far the show has had two brothers, his mom(whom I LOVE as "Goddess of all Creation" with a twisted sense of motherhood) dad showed up (briefly), and of course his demoness "sidekick". And it looks like he may finally show the detective the truth. The trailer for the new season has me intrigued! To be honest, as far as staying true to the comic I neither know anything about that nor do I care at this point. It was always supposed to be a LOOSE adaptation, and I'm fine with that. I love where it has been going so far, with the mix of both Biblical lore and supernatural elements, moral ambiguity, and real world issues.

Looks like you got a stay of execution, Lucifarians!

Lucifer Resurrected! Netflix Picks Up Season 4 of Cancelled Fox Drama (tvline.com)

Oh, I didn't even know it had been cancelled. We're only at Season 2 here

Same, we've been stuck on season 2 for a good while now. Hopefully it'll pick up sone lace now that Netflix is picking up season 4

We're only on ep 5 so far.
I actually don't have Nefflix but given how big it is getting I think I'm going to get it.

Season 2,3 better than 1? As I mentioned I didn't find it that "witty" as I was lead to believe and it was just a bit boring and trying too hard in the first season.

YMMV, but I am loving this series. So glad it got picked up by Netflix! I may not get to watch it save from dvd sets, but yay! Lucifer is "saved"! And after that last finale, I can't wait to see what happens.

The new season starts on Netflix on May 8th.
I'm going to guess it will be 10 eps in-line with the other Netflix shows. Anyway, I'll be watching.

Netflix has announced a 5th and Final season or this show.

Though the revival is a little short lived with 2 10 ep seasons I am glad they picked it up to finish, I found the last enjoyable, looking forward to the final season.

If I didn't like the first season a lot, is it worth checking out the rest of the series or just more of the same?

To me the show needed more wit/dark humor.

Wife put the first one of the new season on. Seems like q la little bit too much procedural stuff vs. any real meat. Not terrible though. I laughed a few times.

It doesn't sound like the show is what you want, so probably not.
I actually love it and would say just binge watch the whole series. It is interesting. It's not really must see tv though.

Not sure many are watching but season 5 is up tomorrow, originally it was to be the last season with 16 eps, now that there will be a 6th season as the final I am not sure if there will be extra eps in this one still or not. Obviously will be able to see when it comes up.
