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.

If its a matter of kids watching they should change air time to later at night or have better supervision from parents.
I love the show it is for fun, dont let your kids watch or teach then rite from wrong.
love it. It’s funny and witty and has a moral to it. keep watching and you will see how things are changing. People it’s just a story AND not made for kids. Get a grip, lighten up. I don’t think you will go to hell for watching a story about “Lucifer” And the Muppets, really? wow
Love this show. If they don’t like it, they can change the channel. They have gotten so many good shows cancelled.
Lucifer is a really fun show! Moms, get a life!
Love it. Fun and entertaining.
Sounds like there is about one million moms that need to get a hobby or a life. I am a mom and tune in every week. I see nothing wrong with the show to be honest. And if you can’t teach your children what is real or fake then you have a problem with your parenting. Personally I don’t like the x-files, but that does not mean I am going to try to do my best to have it canceled. The trick I have learned is simple. If I see a show I don’t agree with or don’t like, I… Read more »
I LOVE this show! I think it is very quirky and fun. It is really too bad that people can not tell the difference between fact and fiction. I really hope it is NOT cancelled.
Get a grip- I’m a mom also and I absolutely love this show! Lucifer is charming, witty and extremely handsome! This show gets better and better each week- the characters seem more comfortable with one another and their acting skills. I’m hoping for a season 2!
Oh please, Its the same cop and robber drama, with a new twist. All the shows are looking for a new twist. There is the super smart cops, (Sherlock, psyche, limitless, scorpion. csi, etc.) and there are the super powered heroes. etc. etc. etc. I like the new take on Satan being a whimpering child, whining about dad issues. Its not much to go on, but it is entertaining. The scripts are really poor, the show will fail for bad ratings before any pathetic protest group will bring them down. These moms are complaining about meaningless things, while while real… Read more »
Lucifer is a comedy, wrapped in a cop show, wrapped in paradox. Tom Elis beautifully portrays the disenfranchised devil, first seen in DC comics of the same title. I watch this with my kids, am a practicing catholic and (surprise) we know the difference between evil and a comedy. Lighten up Moms, and you wanted to cancel the muppets, really?
One mill moms are against everything. I could go on and on about the groups hate and stupidity, but im commenting to say I enjoy the show. Nothing to be offended about.

I love this show, It definitely is a different take on the love, hate , relationship that Lucifer and God share…Lucifer struggles with his place in this world and the next for that matter… not all that different from all of us… He doesn’t know what to make of his new found compassion for humanity …. and I for one want to see what he comes up with…
I think it’s highly entertaining. And I’m a mom! There’s a moral center and it’s on humanity and how good we are, or can be. The moms need to chill and keep watching the dazzling Tom Ellis and the rest of the cast. It’s really fun and evolved.
