FOX is sticking with Lucifer. Today, the network announced they’ve renewed the TV show for a third season.
Based on the DC Comics character, the drama follows Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) as he leaves his throne in Hell to live in Los Angeles. The cast also includes Lauren German, D.B. Woodside, Tricia Helfer, Rachael Harris, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Aimee Garcia, and Scarlett Estevez.
Lucifer is currently in the middle of its second season on FOX. So far, the season is earning an average rating of 1.10 in the 18-49 demo and 3.825 million viewers. The numbers are considerably lower than season one’s average rating of 1.47 in the 18-49 demo and 4.56 million total viewers. However, despite the low ratings, the network seems to support the series and its creative team. FOX has ordered 22 episodes for season three.
Season two of Lucifer returns on May 1st.
From FOX:
FOX has ordered a third season of LUCIFER, the devilishly fun series about the original fallen angel who moves to Los Angeles and teams up with the LAPD to take down criminals. Twenty-two episodes have been ordered.
“LUCIFER is one of those rare shows that starts strong out of the gate, and just keeps getting better and better,” said David Madden, President, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “Tom, Lauren and the entire cast have really made these characters three-dimensional, and the production team – Jerry, Len, Jonathan, Joe and Ildy – is one of the best in the business. We’d also like to thank our partners Warner Bros. for their commitment to this show and we look forward to seeing where this wildly innovative series takes us in Season Three.”
Delivering an average Multi-Platform audience of eight million viewers, LUCIFER stars Tom Ellis, Lauren German, Rachael Harris, DB Woodside, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Aimee Garcia, Tricia Helfer and Scarlett Estevez. The series is based upon the characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg for Vertigo, from DC Entertainment.
In the all-new spring premiere of LUCIFER, “Candy Morningstar,” airing Monday, May 1 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX, Lucifer (Tom Ellis) has gone off the grid and cut off all contact from his family and the police department, following Chloe’s (Lauren German) near-death. But the murder of an up-and-coming guitarist causes him to resurface – with a new mystery woman. Meanwhile, Lucifer’s mom (Tricia Helfer) realizes she may have found a way to finally get them back to Heaven.
LUCIFER is produced by Warner Bros. Television, in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Aggressive Mediocrity. The series is based on characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg for Vertigo, from DC Entertainment. Tom Kapinos (“Californication”) wrote and executive-produced the pilot. The series is executive-produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson. Len Wiseman serves as director and executive producer. Kapinos serves as executive consultant on the series.”

Oh Thank You, FOX!!!! I don’t have cable, but watch every episode online when they are available. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this show and it’s creativity! Please don’t end the show with a cliff hanger if ever you decide to cancel (which I hope is not for more seasons to go).
Love Lesley Ann, tom ellis, Lauren German are all perfect for lucifer please don’t delete show, no cuss words, no sex just good funny show, thanks an keep up the good work
I think that the renewal of lucifer for a third season is great. I have watched every episode and hope to continue watching episodes with my daughter. We find it funny, entertaining, and it has the perfect amount of drama to keep it interesting but not over bearing. We have observed it as a great way to spend time together because we both love the show so much. Although we would indeed be saddened if the show were not to be continued and the plot never to be completed
I’m so excited for Lucifer’s renewal,they deserve it. Tom and the cast have great chemistry, along with the writers and the producers. I watch with anticipation for each episode. Some episodes are so well done, it can be an emotional rollercoaster. I just love it!!!!!!! Thanks Fox
