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?
The show is great. Will watch it as long as it plays. One of top five shows I look forward to watching every week.
I love this show…….hoping for more seasons.
Please renew. Already sad Grimm canceled. I love these shows
I enjoy this show, so yes it should be renewed for a third and fourth season and more. I cannot wait for it to come back in May 2017. I wish all episodes will show to total 22 not 18 this Spring, but happy it is going to be renewed.
OMG this show is so unique – devil with a heart! Carry it on with season 3,4,5,etc!
Currently on episode 6 of the first season and I’m telling you, I’d sell my soul to the devil for this freaking show to continue on forever! After the pilot episode I literally went like “****, this show will be my addiction..” and boy was I correct!
season 3 obviously it’s sooo amazing and is the best
COME ON SEASON 3 LETS GO!
You kidding!? all month day after day I check when starts 3 season and you ask about cancelled!? Come on! please renew next season. I really like Lucifer show!
I really like Lucifer Morningstar and never want the show to be canceled. I am still waiting for the renew.
Lucifer is a cool show My husband and I love to binge watch on love it love it love it
What’s not to enjoy here? The devil finding humanity and working with his angelic family for truth, justice, and every desire. Until recently, I wasn’t aware that the show made it past season 1, let alone a strong possibility of going to season 3 and beyond, so I caught up on season 2. Amazing show really. I’m on the edge of my seat to see more. As Jean Luc Picard would say:
MAKE IT SO!
Let’s go season 3
PLEASE LET IT CONTINUE
Please please please, let it continue! It is such a unique show and I love all the characters and actors playing them. I will be so sad if it doesn’t continue. Please let the show go on!
