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.

I love the show and want a second season! I
This group isn’t trying to look out for kids or people’s souls. They are trying to control what everyone is able to watch and if they had it their way we’d watch nothing but religious shows. I think this show is amazingly funny, sexy and entertaining. Keyword: entertaining. That’s all it is. It doesn’t make me worship the devil in any way.
If you look to a TV show to reaffirm your Christianity or a show somehow challenges it then you have a real rocky and weak relationship with the lord. Its mindless entertainment there are more things happening in this world to focus your concern on AMEN
If people or should I say moms ( and I am a mom ) they should control what their kids watch. That’s all that needs to be said about that! There are always gonna be people that are gonna find reasons not to want a show to be on the air, but that’s no reason to cancel a wonderful show!!!!
very true!
I think this is one of the best shows I’ve seen in many years not only is it fun and sexy the people are so beautiful to watch and that’s what makes a TV show even better it makes you tune in the humor is great and it’s just TV for entertainment and I think that’s exactly what this show is doing for people it’s entertaining and the acting is very good and the lead character he is just very good-looking and funny and I think he should be the next James Bond he is perfect
I am a devote catholic. It’s only a tv show. Get over it. There are other more important issues in the world that moms can worry about. My husband and I think its a great show and we are hoping for season 2.
Oh for heavens sake!!! It is a funny and weirdly sexy show. If you do not like it…DO NOT WATCH IT!! Get over yourselves!!! It is a TV show….
I think this is a super fun new show! I look forward to seeing it every week. Actors/actresses that are appealing to watch and an interesting story line. No, it’s not Game Of Thrones or Breaking Bad quality, but it’s FUN. And, I’m a devout Methodist, have a graduate degree, have a highly successful sales career and rescue animals. So…I’m a good soul enjoying this fun, new tv show. (Point: It’s just a tv show. If an organization or individuals don’t like it, don’t watch it. And stop dictating what is good or bad for the rest of us.)
I think the show is different ad quite good. Any intelligent adult should be able to separate reality from tv. Furthermore ‘moms’ maybe your kids should be in bed at 9:00 p.m., mine our.
This show is great. I look forward to it every week. But my 3 year old doesn’t watch it, very simply because I’m not an idiot and I know what is decent for a child and what isnt. Plain and simple, if you fear that by watching this show you will be damned for all eternity, better skip the viewing and focus on how to better yourself. Let the rest of us enjoy a great show. Seriously, it’s not that hard people.
I’m not christian, I don’t believe in the devil but I do believe in evil. Love the show, and if your kids are so impressionable, maybe they shouldn’t be watching tv at that time. It’s after 9 pm where I am al.
I LOVE! This show it is funny and cute
And a tad twisted. Can’t get enough if u don’t like it don’t watch or let ur kids watch. Easy problem fixed
The 1 million mom’s should not focus on TV shows that theit kids might not even watch and let the one who love the show and watch it every week continue to watch it……I think it is stupid that it only takes one person to ruin everything for the others……keep your options to YOURSELVES AND STOP RUINING THINGS FOR OTHER PEOPLE
I like this show, it shows how the director wants to interpret lucifer and it’s not all bad and if you don’t like it THEN DON’T WATCH IT some people actually like the show like me and my sister we love the show its just different from what’s usually on. So ya you may not like it but we do, so why should we suffer if you don’t like it just change the channel and move on with life.
