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.
Sorry about auto correct. Should say whinning and are so upset. Just leave it. We don’t need another crapy reality show.
Please don’t take another good, fun show to watch because the little lambs who follow everything are shinning again. If they are do upset that it on than be a normal intelligent person and turn off you tv or don’t watch.
the moms should go find a large object and put it in side of them and go …them selfs,come on its a tv series TV people
I have to say, they have a good reason for wanting to cancel the show. After watching it, there’s a slight effect of not seeing Lucifer as evil, some parts even tried to make viewers pity Lucifer. It’s more like the angel and God are the evil which such behaviours presented, very thought provocative. At the same time, if you want to use names, stories..etc from beliefs to make a movie, don’t make it contrary to the original. I enjoyed the movie but I hope it gets cancelled. For the show to have an effect on me who already has… Read more »
Really you must have watched it. Where is the intelligence behind what your saying. Why do you own a TV isn’t that evil?
You really haven’t watched it have you? It is about understanding both sides, about seeing Lucifer’s side of the story. Besides the fact it is not even based on a film it is based on a series of graphic novels and is following pretty close to them. Sometimes you have to open yourself up to new ideas and not close down because one thing set your mind in stone and that is all you see. And no i don’t believe it is about recruiting Satanists at all, if you had watched any episodes Lucifer clearly states that humans are responsible… Read more »
If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Who are to decide what I should watch? Shove off.
I think the “Mom’s” need to patrol their children and turn to another channel or turn off the set and do something to protect their spirituality. I am a Christian and am enjoying this show as an adult and do not find it anything more than entertainment. I would hope most adults can watch a tv series or a movie and not allow it to dictate or direct their life values or spirituality. Shame on you if you are that shallow and are tuning in. Shame on you if you are denying those of us who can the enjoyment of… Read more »
If I recall correctly, in Judaism, Lucifer wasn’t evil but was an impartial prosecutor who made the case why a soul should not enter heaven. That seems to fit in well with the premise of this show. If I’m correct. Like the show though it is a bit silly at times.
I love this series, I would like him to be a little more evil.
I actually like the series and think the premise is quite interesting. What I can suggest for those who are calling for cancellation of the show is that there are several other choices that can be made for one’s viewing pleasure during the same time slot.
It’s crazy to think people would think Lucifer the series it’s a bad influence. To my point of view, I think it’s an entertaining fantasy series. I didn’t see any violation in the series. If u don’t like the series, just don’t watch it and leave those who enjoys it to view it.
I’m looking forward for more seasons on it…
I have to agree with the previous post from A CONCERNED MIND.
At the young age of 65 I feel the misguided million Moms could make better use of their time in their efforts to stop evil in it’s tracks by insisting that our goverment cancel all of it’s destructive imperialist adventures.
Amen!! Well said
USE YOUR BRAIN
I believe it is a thought provoking and intertaining series. We haven’t had that since Forever. It seems like if you have to have a brain to enjoy, it is modified to something inane or taken off the air.
When those 1M moms place the same amount of energy and anger towards the negative image of black women on TV then I’ll sign their petition..but for now, nope!
Omg only takes someone to complain and we all suffer it’s not real it’s a great show why does everyone have to analyse the hell out everything. I remember noddy and big ears from the uk loved the stories when I was a kid but no people had to rip it apart and decide they were gay and not good for kids. Children would not see that only stupid adults and they are not gay!!!!! Please don’t cancel the show I’m just going to watch the next episode now and enjoy it.
I bet none of you will read anything about an opposing opinion, but I have some thoughts to share. If any of the people who wanted this canceled actually sat and thought about it, the character of Lucifer is clearly made out to be a different interpretation of the Devil. He is based off of a comic book character. He isn’t glorified; his character is shown to be slowly mortalized, so he can die, is developing emotions, and is struggling to understand his purpose. He learns that he was God’s favorite son (of the angels), and that God designed Lucifer’s… Read more »
Great, entertaining……please dont cancel!! Tell moms to go do laundry and shut up!!
