Review: Lucifer, Seasons 1 - 4
When Fox canceled Lucifer at the end of Season 3, I wasn’t surprised.
In fact, I don’t know why I even watched Season 3 because Lucifer aka The Devil had generated to a whiny little girl.
I didn’t watch the TV show at all on Fox. I clicked on episode 1 of season 1 after it appeared on New Releases on Netflix.
Most of the first season was screamingly funny. Rather than being a scary monster from Hell, this incarnation of Lucifer was a misunderstood angel who punished sinners.
Yes, he made “deals,” but for the most party, he was after the big baddies of the world.
Then he fell in love. My goodness. How love does change a devil.
Latest Incarnation of Hell King
This new vision of the Devil and his followers is based on characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg.
The original fallen angel is unhappy with his life in hell so he takes a vacation. Where else could he go but Los Angeles. He indulges in sex, drugs, and rock and roll—well, music at least as plays his grand piano in his upscale nightclub.
When a murder occurs outside his club, he apparently “feels” something for the first time in eons. Of course, he teams up with a pretty L.A. detective, and the story starts rolling.
Talented Cast
Lucifer Morningstar (Tom Ellis), becomes a consultant to the LAPD. The ensemble cast includes Lauren German as pretty Detective Chloe Decker, Kevin Alejandro as Detective Daniel “Dan” Espinoza, D. B. Woodside as Amenadiel, Lesley-Ann Brandt as Mazikeen, his demon protector, and Rachael Harris as Dr. Linda Martin, his shrink. After all, everyone in L.A., even the Devil, sees a shrink.
When Fox cancelled the series after 1 brilliant season, 1 okay season, and 1 Devil as whiny-baby season, Netflix grabbed it for a fourth season of ten episodes which Darling Hubby and I binge watched.
Season 4 wrapped up loose ends and ended with a scene that could be the end or could be a segue to a new beginning. I guess it all depends on the number of viewers.
The best thing about the series, IMHO, is the music. Every episode has some pretty fabulous music. I know I bought several tracks just because I heard them on the series and liked them.
I look at the 4 seasons as similar to a really good movie that had 3 sequels. The sequels are never as good as the first movie of the franchise, are they?
Takeaway Truth
Definitely watch Season 1 for some inspired characterization, but be warned. That will suck you into the rest of the seasons.
