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.
Why are you (million moms) allowing your childen to watch this show?? CHANGE THE CHANNEL. When my child was growing up we didn’t have cable because there where things i didn’t want my child watching. You can choose to do something else.
Horrible tv series! I hope it is canceled.
Why would anyone even tune in to a show glorifying the devil? What crap! And people wonder why this world is in such trouble? God help us!
I guarantee the trouble this country is in, doesn’t have a thing to do with what’s on television. If you don’t like what’s on change the channel, with over 500 channels I’m sure you can find something. One other thing, most of all, what gives you the right to decide what everyone else watches?
And you apparently DO need his help. Just don’t watch it.
Maybe people should start believing in God And The Devil to fix things.
I love the show please don’t cancel it if they don’t like it don’t watch it it’s my favorite new show
Dear One Million Moms…..If you don’t like the show, don’t ******* watch it!
If you don’t like it turn the tv off, or change the channel, with over 500 channels to choose from now, I think, now maybe I’m wrong here but there might be something else on, on another channel!!! I am so sick of one group after another telling us all what we can watch, what we can fly on our yards, whats offensive and whats not!! There was a time when we would live and let live, and if we didn’t agree with what another was doing, saying, or watching, we went on with our lives, and LET THEM, and… Read more »
Hey, here’s an idea. Shut the damn TV off or better yet, watch something else. Your objection is noted, so flip on Brother Charles Stanley or the Gaithers or whatever and just let the free market decide. Please.
I absolutely love this new show. Just from watching the first episode on monday I can tell that this will be my favorite series. Its been a very long time since something has caught my interest this much. I really hope this series lasts a long long time. Now about the moms that want it cancelled…. I laugh in their faces, these are pathetic people to be so “offended” by a dam TV SHOW… Im happy for all the attention they are giving this new series tho, the more people that know about this show the better. I know this… Read more »
God has killed more people than the devil.
God demands people obey him, “or else”.
I’d say the devil has a valid argument: let him do good in LA.
@One Million Moms: let your kids learn science, so they can realize that all religions are a fraud, and maybe educate you on that. 🙂
Oh, what a ridiculous campaign. Why aren’t these ‘Moms’ campaigning against the wanting rapes and murders being reported, daily, on news stations? This is a fun show, and I’ve only watched one episode. It is so entertaining, and Lucifer is so good looking. If you don’t like it….don’t watch it, don’t record it…but, for goodness sake get off of your high horses and mind your own business as to what the rest of us like to watch! Go away 1 Million Moms…you’re bothering me!!!
I don’t understand these “Moms.” Do they want Lucifer off the air so they don’t have to worry about actually parenting. If you don’t like it, don’t watch. There are a lot of shows out there that I think should be gone, but I don’t protest. I turn the channel. I hope more people tune in from the free publicity they are providing.
I enjoyed the show for what it is, entertaining. I also am very secure in my religious beliefs and understand what Satan is, my mother taught me that and controlled what we saw as kids. The mothers protesting the show should raise their children and not let TV raise them. My freedom to watch what I want is now being hampered by other people who want to rule the rights of others by their own insecurities or inabilities. it is sad that society is now being influenced a few people with weakness of self. But then again it in mainstream… Read more »
it looks interesting, i could like to see it for there but people don’t like it cause the name lucifer…. its kind of ironic…. how kears
I think it’s a wonderful show.Very funny! At the end of the day this is all fiction. I don’t understand why people make a big fuss about it. If that’s the case then most things that come on TV are inappropriate for a certain group. Get over yourselves! I am rooted enough in my beliefs to know that a TV show won’t effect myself and my family.
I thoroughly enjoyed this show. One Million Moms (or more accurately, Three Moms and a Fax Machine), should accept their irrelevancy and move on.
You win the internet!!
