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.
I love the show. Don’t cancel it just monitor what your kids watch
It’s a good show based on a DC comic character that’s based on multiple “religions”, and you know it’s funny that the “Christians” thinks theirs is the only “faith” on the planet. Well listen up, ” It’s fiction and entertainment” nothing more. I think organizations that attack people and ideas to uplift themselves or their organization, are petty and nothing more than the principal of sheep. Not the animal, as I find them less offensive.
I love the show its very entertaining and funny.
Oh please. It’s a freaking TV show. Get a life. DON’T WATCH IT if you don’t like it. No one’s forcing these so-called million moms to watch. I’m a mom and grandma and enjoy a well written story with interesting characters. I think I’ll contact Olive Garden and tell them how much I enjoy the show.
Lucifer is my favorite TV show. It’s entertaining and the character is strong and quite handsome. If you don’t like it then change the channel. Parents should be monitoring everything their children watch. Don’t play the TV show blame the parenting skills..
I agree with tvfan don’t try to get a whole show cancelled when it’s clearly not for younger viewers its ADULT ENTERTAINMENT. And there’s plenty of other shows on tv with violence. Are you going to demand those get cancelled too? And not everyone is of the same religion.
One Million Mom’s need to get off the internet & stop protesting tv shows, then they can actually moniter what their kids watch on tv! Seriously! When my kids were under 14, I knew EVERYTHING they watched. If their Dad & I didn’t approve, they didn’t watch. They are now both amazing, productive adults. Isn’t it interesting that actually parenting your child instead of blaming everyone else, actually works? Shocker!
THRILLED that Lucifer was renewed! Great scripted tv show, instead of reality garbage.
Thank you from a teacher. Personally, I, too, am thrilled that Lucifer was renewed!
Well said.
We love the show,Lucifer and look forward to it coing each week. If people don’t like it then don’t watch it!!!Kids shouldn’t be up that late anyway! Put them to bed where they belong!!!!leave the show on for the people like grownups to enjoy!!!!
I really like the program and these Moms should be protesting all this CIA stuff and murder programs Lucifer I hope will end with good always winning in he end , and I love Tom he is great.
with all the other programs they shoul d make their kids watch something other then Lucifer, One Million Moms ( crap )
This show is the only reason I can tolerate Mondays. Don’t like it? Don’t watch it. Why does this group want to censure what I, an adult, watches? Don’t want your kids to see it? Be the adult and don’t let them! But don’t inflict your laziness and lack of control on me. I am a big girl and can censure my own viewing of the tv.
Very few shows keep my attention but i cant wait to see Lucufer every week! Keep!
If you don’t like it don’t watch it. It’s that easy, other people like the show,and dumb Ass people like ya’ll should just find something worth fighting for.
I think Lucifer is great. I do not understand why people cannot think for themselves
Silly group to want this show banned it is one of the very best out there I am an avid fan love the show
this show is the highlight of my week along with second chance among others,mums u really must have to much time on ur hands to sit through different series n then point the finger when u dont like or agree with the script and stamp your feet,really,is that that the type of person you would want ur children to be,thats the reality chicks,not a fictional tv programme thats viewed for entertainment purposes!!nxt you will be complaining about the likes of the avengers,etc,saying that they r to far fetched,hello!!!!REALLY GUYS,
