Lucifer NOT Cancelled YAY!!!

[Richard Baker]

I don't know if it is attributable to NetFlix but in this last season we saw Lucifer in a much better devil mode- both partial and head to toe complete reveal with full bat winged glory. Still not positive if it was makeup, CGI or a mix of the two, but far better than before.

I actually enjoyed season 4 a bit more because they didn't go "full Netflix".

Let them save all that craziness for Season 5.

I don't mean R rated, but for one, leave out the commerical break moments.

Keeping those commercial break moments might have been a decision of the producers to maintain continuity with the prior season's narrative structure. When you watch the first three seasons on Netflix those gaps are there also, just minus the commercials. Keeping them in for season 4 provides the same viewing experience as earlier seasons and also gives control over where breaks happen if this series is to be released in syndication later.

I've yet to watch season 4 but I'm glad to hear they didn't go "full Netflx" with it. I'm tired of cable shows doing things just because they don't have to worry about things that are not allowed on broadcast tv just because they can. I have no problem with cursing or nudity if it has a purpose other than trying to shock or impress the viewers like STD has done with a few f*ck's thrown in that completely take you out of the story.

They are trying to stay with the spirit of the show- it does have sexual references and suggestive moments but those are more character driven instead of candy for horny teenagers. One show features a visit to a nudist colony and while we do see two of the stars naked as they walk away from the camera most of the scenes are almost an homage to Austin Powers with props and camera positioning constantly blocking direct views. There were plenty of opportunities to go 'full Netflix' but I am glad they didn't.

I saw those scenes from the nudist colony and thought they were very well done. It reminded me of Peter Sellers and Elke Sommers in the first Pink Panther movie way back in the 60's where they always had something that would block you from seeing anything.

They were very creative- even without the fruit basket
