Lucifer premiered Monday night on FOX with more than seven million viewers tuning in, and one group is not at all happy with the new series. In fact, they are demanding that FOX cancel the series immediately.
One Million Moms has called on networks before to cancel series they object to. At the start of the fall season, they released a call to ABC to cancel The Muppets.
Now, they have set their focus on Lucifer. Read part of their statement about the series below.
“FOX’s new drama “Lucifer” is spiritually dangerous. The new program “Lucifer” glorifies Satan as a caring, likable person in human flesh. The character Lucifer Morningstar makes being the devil look cool, drives a fancy car, gets out of a speeding ticket, owns a nightclub in LA, and is irresistible to women.”
They go on to say that the premiere showed “graphic acts of violence, a nightclub featuring scantily-clad women, and a demon. The message of the show is clear. Lucifer is just misunderstood. He doesn’t want to be a bad guy, it’s God who is forcing him to play that role.”
How does One Million Moms want to get their message about Lucifer? They have asked people to focus on Olive Garden restaurants. They are asking people to contact the restaurant chain and let their feelings known about Lucifer because Olive Garden is sponsoring the FOX series.
Did you watch Lucifer? Are you a fan? Or, do you agree with One Million Moms? Tell us what you think.
Honestly the show makes Lucifer look weak. Like he has a heart. But I like thè show, sooo…what’s the problem? It’s 2016. Grow up
Haha,you do know wars are created by God.. and Christians rape and murder more than any satanist it’s a great show, did you forget lucifer is a angel or was according to your book that none of you gave knowledge of. You know how hypocritical you are I hope god pisses on you for being so ignorant. It’s a good show don’t like it go live in russia. Also I’m not a satanist I just believe in freedom of religion. Take your pedophile pastors else where maybe we should make a show on how messed up Christianity is? Or would… Read more »
Really its a tv show its on at night when kids don’t see it. If someone wants to use all this effort to contact Olive Garden n complain about a tv show, why not use that effort for something that makes a difference like Wounded Warrior Project SERIOUSLY
If you dont like a show dont watch it. Its simple really. Dont ruin it for the rest.
“…the new program “Lucifer” glorifies Satan as a caring, likable person in human flesh. The character Lucifer Morningstar makes being the devil look cool, drives a fancy car, gets out of a speeding ticket, owns a nightclub in LA, and is irresistible to women.”
Gee, no surprise here. That describes him IMPLICITLY! DUH!
I meant that as a compliment, folks. I love the show. Owning a strip club and driving a flashy car? Of course!
For those who don’t know, lucifer used to be an angel a favourite of God but hated humans then the whole bad stuff happened. Now from my knowledge he is is the keeper of hell waiting for people who deserve eternal damnation , in the show I think lucifer is being turned into the nice person he was( anyone can change ) by the lady protagonist. in the end it’s just a tv show that’s like The interview. I don’t know much about lucifer or any thing so don’t get mad at me.
THIS COMMENT WAS ACTUALLY DELETED BY WHOEVER IS RUNNING THIS. I KNOW WHY AND YOU DO NOT INTIMIDATE ME. YOU ARE JUST AFRAID OF PEOPLE KNOWING THE TRUTH. FIRST COMMENT: I understand why they are angry but then again, its just a show. People who do not really know of Satan will watch this and think he’s this gentle, loving, charming being. Those who DO know of the real Satan will understand this series. Lucifer does appear as every trait I’ve mentioned above, yet he is the biggest deceiver of all time. So to the Christians who actually know who… Read more »

Why do people have to make a big deal over something, it’s not ruining your day. You don’t go home or go to work and only think about how Lucifer should be cancelled. Right now there is some religious website trying to get the show cancelled too. Just because some people find it offensive etc. does not mean that you should get your way. to the people who want it cancelled. if you think you have the right to cancel a show alot of people like, then we have the right to keep it. If we cancel it because you… Read more »
Pleeeez… It’s just a show… And a very entertaining and comedic one, at that. Cleverly done! The ‘actors’ (they’re just acting… Get it?!) are brilliant and worthy of continued episodes and seasons. There are shows far more graphic in numerous ways than Lucifer. I think it is actually tastefully done! I hope this show does not get the axe. It’s a keeper, IMO. And I hope they continue to advertise it to keep viewership high. Looks like the numbers drop some each week. :~{
I just love Lucifer..I tape it and watch each episode a couple times.. This show is so so entertaining..It has a little bit of everything in it including the mystery surrounding him.. PLEASE do not cancel this show, with all the crap on TV now, it’s great to have a show to laugh with, action, and mystery… Again I just love love this show….
Love the show! I’m a good Catholic and that’s what makes this show even funnier is the one liners that Lucifer uses to reference God. I see nothing that’s harmful if anything it makes people think there is good out there. Please don’t cancel it I don’t have too many shows on TV that I like.
I believe it is an ‘adult show’!! Also, these are probably the same ‘moms’ that allow their kids to watch Adult Swim and think it’s ok. My husband, a middle school teacher, hears his students regularly discussing the definitely not for kids shows on Adult Swim – these moms need to get a grip!!! Lucifer is just fun and entertaining.
In the contrary of those mother opinions about this TV show, I think “Lucifer” is a great show that helped me not to be afraid of the devil as seeing him so different on this show. I have seen a lot of horror movies and the ones that really scare me are those involving demonic spirits. This TV series makes me feel really comfortable and its very funny too! I don’t see anything wrong with this show!
Love the show. Not everyone is offended by it.
I think these “Mothers” need to get jobs and leave us alone, sound like they have WAY to much time on their hands. If you do not like it then do not watch it, it is as simple as that.
