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.
Please, please, please renew this series! I find it wonderfully clever and entertaining (and yes, I’m a Christian). If I don’t like something I don’t watch it–it’s just that simple. That’s what remotes are for!
One million mom’s should spend their time on more productive pursuits such as teaching their kids that there’s no such thing as Lucifer or God. These same mothers will let their kids watch movies about Thor and Hercules without batting an eye because they’ve come to accept that it’s based on mythology. Well guess what “Million Moms,” so is Lucifer! I like the show so stop get out of the way and turn your kids TVs off if you don’t like it.
I like the show Lucifer. Its very interesting. Good people can also have a dark side and do bad things. No one is all bad or all good. . The show is entertaining. I am looking forward to seeing where it goes next. Even Lucifer’s side kick is changing and wanting to make friends now. Lucifer started out really bad but he is going through a transformation. He wants to be good he is constantly doing things to help others with the police officer he has a crush on. . He is in therapy trying to understand himself and his… Read more »

Love it! Please renew! So ridiculous how offended everyone gets over the silliest things these days.
Do not Cancel it! RENEW IT,! this show is extraordinary amazing! i Love it! and those persons against it.. STFU please. mind your pwn business closed mind ppl!
Their quote is funny… “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.” Oh where to start…isn’t one of the devil’s “tools” the art of cunning? Doesn’t he try to make you like him by showing and having all of those “awesome” things we lust for in life? Doesn’t he try to be likeable through these so that… Read more »
I agree – I like the show, but the direction they are taking his character is not something I like. I want him to be immortal and punish the guilty. He hasn’t even shown anyone his devil face in 4 episodes. I might stop watching if they keep going in that direction,
This is one of my favorite shows!! Please renew it FOX!
I love Lucifer please don’tl let him become
too human!!! Tom Ellis is perfect!!’
I am a Christian that really likes this show! It is a very good show for all Christisns to watch! Clearly the pics say you bought what it does show you is that he was Kassing to hell for something you did wrong and Christians have the opportunity to be forgiven for their sins but he feels he doesn’t but he doesn’t want to be torturing people for no reason at all and it shows how he rather be human and lose all his extra things that he was able to have to be a human and have a second… Read more »
LOVE this show. PLEASE do not cancel! If some people do not like it then they should not watch. There are lot of shows I would rather see cancelled before Lucifer!!!!!
This is seriously one of the best shows on TV. Some people just need to get a life.
Come on! Shouldn’t this group take into consideration that Lucifer actually IS charming and likeable? I remember being taught THAT in Sunday school as a young child. There’s a reason that people are warned about him, and that’s because he is the original fallen angel. He is tempting and charming, and, yes, evil. So, why would any Christian dispute this as a bad portrayal of him? Seems pretty dead on to me! And why would anyone care about the content (violence, sexual content, etc.) when it has clearly been approved for television by the standard set of rules that governs… Read more »
This show is fine Everyone needs to get off their high horse if you can’t tell the difference between fiction and fact you need more Sunday school yourself ‘s.
This is a great show! Tom Ellis delivers the lines perfectly and the lines themselves are so clever …. just LOVE the humor- my entire family (all adults ) loves it. We all agree it is hysterical — truly can’t get enough!!
