When Lucifer premiered in early 2016, many people wanted the show to be cancelled before they even saw it, at least in part because of the subject matter. While the show’s ratings weren’t great, they were good enough for the FOX series to be renewed. Will it do well enough to get a third season renewal? Stay tuned.
On the Lucifer TV show, Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis) has abandoned his throne and retired to Los Angeles. Following a brutal murder outside of his nightclub, he starts to have feelings of compassion for the first time in billions of years and ends up helping a homicide detective (Lauren German). In season two, Lucifer and his brother (D. B. Woodside) team up to find their mother (Tricia Helfer) who recently escaped from Hell. The rest of the cast includes Rachael Harris, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Kevin Alejandro, Aimee Garcia, and Scarlett Estevez.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

For comparisons: The first season of Lucifer averaged a 1.47 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.56 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Lucifer TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
Renew please. Absolutely love this show. Season two has been terrific…it’s a real ensemble cast now. Funny, sexy, sweet…sometimes even tender. Love the character development…so well done. I’ve bought the seasons as well.
Absolutely Renew!!! I watch live then but I buy the seasons too!
the show should go on.
the story is just to interesting to stop now.
If this series is cancelled my divorce will be initiated–she didn’t want to even watch the pilot at first (she has a thing with devil stuff) but after watching now she can’t wait for Monday’s. She will attack anyone who even considers cancelling this series. So watch out producers-:)
PLEASE!!!! Renew the show for a Third season this show is so awesome man I don’t get to watch it when it’s live because I’m working but It watch it the next day!!! This show is absolutely amazing I’d love to meet the cast lol but I doubt it would happen the show is awesome please renew
Renew!!! This is my new favorite TV show. I was hooked after seeing the pilot. Ratings don’t always tell the true story. Really X-Files didn’t do well at first. The show got a bad rap before it even started. I love the humor, and the interactions between the characters that know who and what he is, and those that don’t. This is not your basic crime drama, nor is is a “Cop with a quirky sidekick”, this show has depth and the characters show growth. It doesn’t hurt that the actors are an attractive bunch. I sincerely hope it is… Read more »
Pplleeaaassseeee don’t cancel!!!!
renew for the 3rd season
Renew for 3rd season I love this show. It’s literally addicting
MY NEW FAVORITE TV SHOW PLEASE DON’T LET IT GO! TOM ELLIS IS A DAMN GOOD ACTOR! This portrayal of Lucifer is not only entertaining but a nice twist that really anything could happen and why couldn’t the devil ever change and not know it may be God’s will. Let the haters hate on the show and watch it flourish over time. All great things have difficult climbs to make but I see this show exploding.
I love it! It’s getting better and better. Please Renew it. I love Luci.
Renew!
I’m prefer reading books, but this series steal my soul.
I can’t wait for the next Monday!
Lucifer is gorgeous!
