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?
I live in a rural area and don’t have normal TV. My 13 year old told me about the show Lucifer so we looked it up using our Kodi system. The show is fantastic! We have watched every episode and keep checking, hoping the next one is available, only to be disappointed when there isn’t one. As I said, my son is 13 and loves this show. I am 54 and also love this show. It is interesting how the writers try to keep the characters in line with the Bible. I love the suspense, the tension between Lucifer and… Read more »

I was hesitate at first because of the subject matter , but after watching it a few times I really liked it. Please bring it back?
I love the show I finished the first and the second season in 2 days it’s addictive !! I would really like a season 3
I would really like another season…I feel that the story line is surprisingly unpredictable and really interesting….and I fail to see how anyone wouldn’t want to see a third season after the second
