It's too late for this. The cast is all way past the point of making this work and it would just be lame with a new cast. This is easily one of the worst single season cacenllations in television history imo and I wish things had gone down differently. At least we got some closure/information with Serentiy, that movie was dope as hell.

E: on topic. Tried to watch Lucifer because I love Gaiman, but they straight butchered it. Supernaturalesque bad imo, but I'm glad Netflix is bringing back shows that other people enjoy. Think they brought back Brooklyn99 as well, another show I couldn't stand, but it doesnt hurt me none and it makes loads of others happy. Good on Netflix.


Yeah I don't think Firefly would work with a new cast. It's kind of like Ghostbusters in that way. A perfect alignment of the stars happened with the casting. Except the doctor, pretty sure he could be replaced and I'd be fine with it. I really disliked him.

Ya... something about him was just off. Everyone else was perfect though.

Yeah, definitely one of two shows I've ever been upset about being cancelled.

Based on the last 5 years of releases, it could happen anyway.

Oh, for sure lol. I'd be willing to bet money we'll see a new Firefly eventually, it's just probably going to suck.

I was going to say I'm not sure the Western elements of it would catch an audiences attention today, but then I remembered West world so what the fuck do I know apparently.

I just know I probably wouldn't like it without the original cast.

Aw, my bad. I think that was something I heard in passing, I should have double-checked before posting lol. Thanks for correcting me.

Lucifer finally battled Cain and the Detective found out Lucifer's true identity, and then they solve the case of the murdered child psychiatrist and are all friendly and cool, and then she is in Rome plotting against him.

Wtf

Best season of the show.

I love how it opened, with this incredile tracking shot to show the passing of time, and his repetitive depressive cycle.



I'm surprised how well it did:

"Season four hit the top spot just over one week after its release according to TV Time’s Binge Report, beating even HBO’s penultimate episode of Game Of Thrones by taking an extra 7.5% of the binge watches."

"Lucifer tops Netflix binge list for fourth consecutive week. Once again Tom Ellis’s comedy drama sits pretty at the top of TV Time’s Binge Report, miles ahead of HBO’s finale season seven of Game Of Thrones and iconic sitcom Friends. Over the past seven days the latest season of Lucifer raked in an impressive 5.89 per cent of binge sessions, with Thrones only managing to garner 2.81 per cent."

It has been renewed for season 5
