They've been talking about a Lucifer series for a while now. I'm glad it's finally going to make it!

And the unhappiness begins over Lucifer:

Fox network launching new TV series that glorifies Lucifer; marketed with pro-Satan tweets

(NaturalNews) The more subtle side of satanism in Hollywood entertainment is now a thing of the past, as primetime television airs blatantly evil shows like the upcoming Fox drama Lucifer, which glorifies the goings about of the "lord of hell" after he fictitiously leaves the lake of fire and retires to Los Angeles.

The premise behind the absurd drama, which is set to release in 2016, centers around so-called "Lucifer Morningstar" and his new life as the owner of Lux, an upscale nightclub located in the City of Angels.

A trailer for the show portrays Lucifer as a handsome, British-accented, well-to-do ladykiller full of charm and wit.

Here's an image of the handsome actor Tom Ellis, who was cast as Lucifer:

The masses are increasingly obsessed with evil, so why not make a show glorifying Satan?
Perhaps this premise of portraying evil as good and good as evil isn't so unusual after all, though. Modern society does this all the time with politicians, CEOs, celebrities, media-obsessed "humanitarians" and many others who are glorified in the limelight as they secretly perform all kinds of evil in the shadows.

Politicians, both Republican and Democrat alike, are a perfect example of this. Clad in tailored suits and plastered smiles, these phonies parade themselves around as champions of the people while quietly accepting bribes from special interests. Many of them are blatant liars, of course, and yet the people keep voting for them.

I'm not surprised that some people would have negative things to say about the show. Knee jerk reactions are to be expected. On the surface, Lucifer looks like one thing, but once you get into it you find that it isn't as cut and dried as you might think. It's a very interesting comic!
 
Hmmmmm.....you might just be sucking me into this one with that description.......
