A low-key midseason entry in 2016, Lucifer, from Warner Bros. TV, exceeded expectations, earning a second-season renewal, a Season 2 back order and an early Season 3 renewal — all within nine months. Last season, Lucifer ran head-to-head in the ratings with its higher-profile, bigger-budget Monday lead-in Gotham, both averaging a 1.1 adults 18-49 rating in Live+Same Day and and 1.9 in L+7.

First they kill my sitcoms, and now my drama.

I'm finally free of Fox.

1. I like both Lucifer and Gotham

I dvr both shows

2. I only saw it once and was shocked it was even allowed.

Especially since Lucifer was such as likable character. The one time I saw it, I thought he was hot .

3. So much wasted potential

4. "Lucifer" sure had a bone to pick with his father!

I watched it (religiously) because Tom Ellis (Lucifer) had such delightful devilish glee in being as bad as you can get.

I, too, wondered how long this could continue on broadcast TV. It did better with "Gotham" in tandem on Mondays.

Who the hell was watching it - besides me? Now I know.


Article made it worrisome "Gotham" will return - same kind of ratings.

"Gotham" is one of the best 'superhero/supervillain' shows I have ever seen! I thought we were all mad for superhero shows?

5. Lucifer was such a delight

While it was radically changed from the comic series, what we got really excelled because of Tom Ellis in the leading role. I really came to like most of the cast and the addition of Ella really made for some great energy.

6. Lots of uber churchy folks watch Fox and they don't like having the devil

on their favorite conservative TV channel. Well, not counting all them dang demon libruls that show up regularly for their bashing.

7. I remember when I wouldn't let my kids watch anything on Fox.

They had Married With Children, The Simpsons, and King of the Hill. Funny how times have changed -- and so have I.

I am gutted that Lucifer has been canceled and am hopeful that Netflix or some other streaming service will pick it up.

8. Two episodes are being aired on 5/30

They were filmed awhile ago and take place before the finale and were going to be standalone episodes in season 4. So there's a little more - just pre-finale material.

9. Oh, good! I'm so hoping the show will be revived somewhere, somehow. nt
