A new dramatic TV series on FOX, Lucifer created a bit of an uproar before it even premiered. The One Million Moms group wants the show to be cancelled and some religious people feel the same way. That’s not likely to have an effect on the show’s future but the ratings sure will. How’s the Lucifer TV show doing? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
On the Lucifer TV show, Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) has abandoned his throne and retired to Los Angeles. Charming, charismatic and devilishly handsome, he’s enjoying his retirement while owning a nightclub. His bliss is disturbed when a beautiful pop star is brutally murdered outside of his club. He starts to have feelings of compassion for the first time in billions of years and ends up helping a homicide detective (Lauren German). The rest of the cast includes Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Rachael Harris, D. B. Woodside, and Scarlett Estevez.
The series debuted in January to a 2.43 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.16 million viewers. That was a very positive start, especially considering the state of the rest of FOX’s drama series.
In week two, the ratings fell to a 1.95 in the demo and 6.0 million viewers, a decline of nearly 20% in the demo. The numbers have essentially kept falling lower each week (though there was a slight bump upward in week seven). Last week’s installment, episode eight, hit a new low in the ratings and hit a 1.21 in the demo and 3.86 million.
The eight episodes have averaged a 1.63 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.08 million viewers.
The rest of the FOX schedule is in poor shape so it’s currently the network’s third-highest rated drama of the season (behind Empire and The X-Files). That may be enough to secure Lucifer a second season but it’s very concerning that the series continues to lose viewers. That may be enough to sink the series. We’ll likely have to wait until May to find out for sure.
But, what do you think? Do you like the Lucifer TV show? If you ran the network, would you cancel or keep it?
Love the show do not cancel
Keep the fox TV series Lucifer ..it is entertaining.. Lucifer is hilarious .. can’t wait for season 2 and i hope there will be more seasons to follow
The Lucifer series is witty and fun, I thoroughly enjoyed the first season, cant wait for the next. There are so many shows on TV that glorify sex, abuse of women, drugs and violence. This series does none of that. If you are going to classify a TV show as evil, look elsewhere. If you don’t like the show, pick up your lil clicker and click to your hearts content and STOP trying to force your opinions and beliefs on everyone else.
this show is awesome! EVERYONE in my office loves it. Please do not cancel it…..it’s the best show on TV so far this season
I love Lucifer the TV show
So please don’t cancel it
I’ll borrow from Libertarian philosophy: if the premise of this series offends you, THEN DON’T WATCH IT!!!! Otherwise, decide if you want to watch this show.
Love Lucifer. Great Cast.
Evil? seriously. Instead of wasting your time trying to stop this show, which is entertaining and funny try to stop some of these reality shows (Kardashians) . Those shows are what is ruining the world. BTW, I’m a mom too and I go to church and love God. Are you suggesting I am evil?
So true religious people and mothers that are so dramatic like seriously I love the show and my evil
I absolutely love this show. IT is not evil its a TV SHOW! Lucifer is helping people and trying to be good. Not to mention he is hilarious. Get a grip if you don’t like it then DONT watch it. Your opinion does not rule everyone else. Why don’t you spend your time doing good for others since I’m sure you are SOOO holy. Don’t worry about others just worry about you and your family. You can always turn the TV OFF.
Obviously, they are putting the bible anatognist as something “Good” so when hits the fan, u guys will normalize him as being the best. So, he will have his tactics with y’all sheeples, being “asleep” . For what is good, bad and whats bad, seen as good. Period.
I worship God and I love this show. This show is awesome and funny. If you actually watch the show you will see it is not Evil like you think it to be. Yes he is the Devil who does not deny God as his “Dad” and he punishes those who are truly evil such as murderers, drug dealers who are harming good people while helping a detective that he is falling in love with. His brother, who is also an angel of God is on the show who are now working together as a team to stop a menace… Read more »
I have enjoyed the series. I find nothing wrong with it. Infact there is less visible gore than in other existing series. I would like to see it stay.
Please keep it on there is nothing wrong with it it’s the religious fanatics who are upset with the show and it’s only TV I enjoy it I am very much Catholic but I think it’s a good wholesome show that the rest of these nuts if they don’t like it they could always change the channel PS if it wasn’t for the Fanatics we wouldn’t have all this b******* with the bombings and the shootings all the time it’s their fault that the world’s going to hell just remember fanatics the meek shall inherit the earth
Cancel it! It’s Evil! Never should have been on in 1 st place! And cancel Grimm and Nce apron a time too! Get all that evil crap off!
Put on some wholesome family shows! Or Christian movies!
First of all, try proof reading what you type before you send it. Secondly, have you even watched the show or are you just another bible thumper who assumes it must be evil? I believe in God and find the show amusing and entertaining. Don’t try to force your narrow-minded opinions on everyone else. If you actually watched the show and don’t like it simply don’t watch it. By the way, it’s been renewed for another season.
I find the show amusing and entertaining. Did you even watch it or just assume it’s evil? If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Not everyone wants to watch wholesome family shows all the time. By the way it’s been renewed for season 2.
Goodness! You certainly have a right to your opinion. But, if you don’t like a show, then simply don’t watch it. It’s the ratings that propel a show to be canceled or renewed. However, you don’t have the right to go to a show that other people enjoy and demand for it to be canceled. You certainly can, of course. But people can be very harsh in their opinion of you. Yet, I know with the anonymity of the internet people feel free to say hateful things. Please, stop watching the show. With all the shows, networks, cable, internet –… Read more »
Family shows and Christian shows certainly have their place in a family household with children, and in rigid Christian housholds. But for God sake give other people a break, and don’t foist your restrictions on everyone else. Stop being such a intolerant hard nose! God really does allow all people to make their own choices!
YOU HAVE TO BRING IT BACK ON. I REALLY LOVE THE SHOW IT’S SERIOUS,FUNNY AND SOME PARTS IN IT IS TRUEFUL. IT WOULD BE A SHAM TO CANCEL THE SHOW. IT’S REALLY A GOOD SHOW. SO PLEASE KEEP IT ON. LOVE……LOVE……LOVE…….IT
PUMPKIN
Please keep this show! This show is my favorite. My sister and my cousins love this show. If this show is cancelled, I really will stop watching shows altogether. I am tired of good shows being removed for stupid reality TV rich people.
Keep it going a love it me !!
