I am watching (well, sort of half watching. it plays in the background while i'm on video games) the stupidest show which has ever existed on planet Earth. In fact when I describe it, many will think I am joking. But I'm not. That's how far-out it is.
It is a show on NetFlix called 'Lucifer'. It is about the Devil comes to Earth. He opens a nightclub, and joins up with a detective to 'solve crimes'. Yep. The Devil becomes a kind of 'Batman' crime fighting character with supernatural 'powers', by teaming up with a Police detective. It is so incredibly stupid that I just had to watch it.
What I would give to be in on the 'pitch' when someone sold this ridiculous concept to Netflix. Ok, so you're selling us a show where the Devil comes to Earth as a kind of super hero with 'powers' and starts fighting crime with a hot female detective? Sounds Great! I'm in! When do we start filming? LOL!
It is not an animation but even so, I see it as more of a live action comic book than an actual show. The only way you can watch this insanity is to drop any rational thoughts or critique and to just see it as stupid fun.
I’ve been a fan of this show since 16 when it was on Fox. It’s from a comic book type genre by Neil Gaiman. It’s basic premise is The Devil goes on vacation and winds up in LA.
The actor playing Lucifer Tom Ellis, is super hot, and classically trained in Shakespeare. You might have seen him in “Poirot” playing the Inspector.
The whole thing that goes on for all six seasons is a redemption arc with the primary characters and forgiveness. Plus you have a love story about finding true love that is with all the primary characters.
I really enjoy this show, I’m ticked off it ended. I’m not doing it justice, but it has a huge fan base and it gave me hope that anyone can be redeemed.
I know it’s not for everyone, but I really do like this show. I must have seen the entire series at least ten times.
Edit: the actress playing Lucifer’s sidekick Maze , is super hot and wears a lot of black leather. Plus she does a lot of kick ass martial arts moves. Just sayin’
