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.
It is understandable what the moms are saying, but let’s be honest , this show is not about spiritual instruction or for a minor audience. It’s entertainment pure and simple , and if a child is watching this show , well they might as well watch real housewives of Jersey or Atlanta , now that’s a dose or reality . yeah right! How about you just turn it off or turn the channel moms. Dang really!
This show is great!! Look forward to it every week! Keep renewing it!! Loveeee!
Great show main character is hysterical. Million moms should be quite. Nobody is making them watch it. It is clearly not a show for children so hey would your kids be watching it. Adults are allowed to watch adult television. It is fantasy not reality. Stop complaining
This show may not be appropriate for young kids but why are these kids up at this time of night? This show isn’t advertised as a children’s show so I’m not sure what the issue is. Are these Moms also protesting Once Upon A time? That’s a show that shows the evil side of fairytales. There are so many more violent shows on tv than Lucifer and they’ve been on for several seasons. Do your job and parent your children and don’t take away my privilege to watch a great show.
Great show and Awesome message of good over evil
For the people to get offended they would of had to watch one show and if they did they would see the message that good always overcomes evil.. Sure anything can be misunderstood but I agree w/the majority this is a very funny show and has a great staff!
PLEASE RENEW THIS SHOW!!!!!!
LUCIFER is the best show!! I’m so sick and tired of others who are offended!!!! Get a GRIP and Change the damn Chanel if you don’t want to watch it!!!
I personally find the show entertaining. I hope the series gets renewed for many more seasons. I believe some people read too much into it. In all honesty, Instead of people looking at it as glorifying Satan why not look at it as good is changing him maybe just maybe good will overcome evil. Or simply sit back and enjoy it from an entertainment point of view.Either way I’m glad it’s returning for another season!
How about just change the channel
This show is the best show on right now, I love it. If they don’t want their children to watch then be a adult and use some parental control. This is totally ridiculous . Some people will use anything to get a little attention and blame someone or something else for things they can controll . Keep Lucifer for those of us that love it. !!!!
So ridiculous. If you don’t want your child to watch it don’t let them. Also may create conversation between parent and child. People need to stop personalizing everything. It’s a tv show get over it!!
this show is terrific and funny. why does anyone want it to be cancelled, I mean its just a TV series and one of the best i have ever seen.
Just found out the show has been renewed for a second season. Guess the one million moms(10 moms) don’t have the influence they like to think they have!!
This show is funny and entertaining. Key word ENTERTAINMENT!! I seriously doubt this show is going to impact anyone’s religious beliefs, and if it does then they have bigger problems then a tv show. I would love to see a list of the one million moms, looked couldn’t find it because it’s a website probably run by more like 10 moms who have a moral stick up their buts.
