LUCIFER CANCELLED

[delacourtings]

Fox, proving once again that they are completely out of touch, has cancelled yet another beloved series. Lucifer, which is averaging about 3.297 million viewers, has just been cancelled. Meanwhile, Family Guy and Bob's Burgers, who are averaging 2.552 and 2.369 million viewers, respectively, have both been renewed by the network.

Lucifer was one of the few shows I still watch :( And to make it even worse one of the head writers tweeted that it'll end on a huge cliffhanger as well. (https://twitter.com/Henderson_Joe/status/995030502661808129)

Nooo...they couldn't at least find a way to wrap it up?

Note to self, I might want to consider kicking cable to the curb and going pure streaming. Also wait until a series had been completed and I know for a fact that there are no cliff-hangers prior to watching it.

Waiting until a series is completed is something I've been considering as well. I'm getting really tired of end of season cliffhangers becoming series ending ones.

Fox has never been very good at making smart decisions about the shows they air and the ones they keep.

I don't watch Lucifer, but I'm highly suspicious about the reasons behind the news. Is it that the viewership for Lucifer skews heavily female? The cancellation could be that the good numbers don't matter because they reflect the "wrong" demographic from what the network wants. Sentinel fandom is still pissed that the plug was pulled because, despite the good ratings, not enough men were watching; female viewers were not deemed important to their bottom line.

Very disappointing, I love the show - but Twitter is raising hell so fingers crossed they have some success the same way Brooklyn Nine Nine did.

Not only annoyed by this news, but I also found out that another show I like Scorpion on CBS was cancelled as well. I'm hoping Lucifer will get picked up by another network and that so will Scorpion as both shows need better endings than the ones that were given to us.

Lucifer on Netflix

I'm hoping you already know this, but I'll tell you just in case:
Netflix not only picked up the Lucifer TV series where it left off, but they also have all the seasons that originally aired on Fox available to view and/or download via their U.S. app/site. Hope this helps!
