It's good to be bad.
Bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, Lucifer Morningstar abandoned his throne and retired to Los Angeles, where he has teamed up with LAPD detective Chloe Decker to take down criminals. But the longer he's away from the underworld, the greater the threat that the worst of humanity could escape.

This show started in 2016 and has six seasons, ending(?) 2021. It turned to trash around the end of the 2nd or 3rd seasons. The storytelling for the show or premise was a mortal female cop having to work with the Devil to solve crimes. The Devil is on earth because he became fed up with his role as Hell's Ruler. And the writers did very well with the Lucifer character. Many aspects to the Devil being supernatural came through wonderfully for the audience, one profound trait being _Lucifer_ (**Tom Ellis**) refusing, or being under an angel geas, to be unable to speak a lie; so he goes around telling people the truth about who he is. Not fighting this, or speaking around the truth makes the facet a very comically astute trait to the character for the show. The way other mortal characters react to the news which is either to dismiss the claim outright or gloss over it as ramblings completes the humor; especially when they realize the truth through some supernatural display from the Devil himself. And ofcourse the female detective, _Chloe Decker_ (**Lauren German**) also does not believe him, her job being based solely in proof and fact--evidence. While there are numerous instances pro
Read the whole review on TMDBI started watching this a few months ago as I found it on Netflix. I watched the trailer and thought it looked very interesting. I thought I would watch just one or two episodes each day or whenever I had time. Man, I was wrong. I ended up watching half of the first season that day, then the second half the next. A couple of days later I began looking into buying the DVDs. And the series was finished a few months later. I would recommend this to anyone who has seen Izombie (has the same crime concept) or anyone who loves Supernatural-type shows.
Read the whole review on TMDBLucifer" is a woeful excuse for a television series, a devilish descent into the depths of mediocrity that leaves its audience longing for salvation from its torturous plot and laughable attempts at wit. At its core, "Lucifer" revolves around the most overused and unoriginal concept imaginable: the Devil himself forsaking his infernal throne to play detective in Los Angeles. It's a premise that would make even the most dedicated connoisseur of the supernatural cringe in embarrassment. Instead of offering a fresh take on the age-old battle between good and evil, the show falls flat with its trite, uninspired narrative. The acting in "Lucifer" is nothing short of painful. Tom Ellis's portrayal of Lucifer Morningstar is more irritating than charismatic, leaving viewers yearning for a more captivating devil to grace the screen. The supporting cast fares no better, with performances that range from wooden to outright cringe-worthy. The attempts at humour are so forced and awkward that they often elicit groans instead of laughs. The show's writing is equally abysmal. The dialogue is filled with clunky one-liners and contrived attempts at clever wordplay that would make even the most hack
