Over the last few weeks, people
all over the world has been uniting together to get the series revived after
the major cliff hanger from season 3. Fans have been wanting Chloe to see the
truth, but when she eventually does, Fox cancels the show. From Fox’s
perspective, cancelling the show was a decision based on business, because they
only saw the ratings decrease gradually over the last few episodes, and
justifying that decline was difficult as there’s a chance they could be losing
out on money. However, the moment the news broke and people heard about the
show being cancelled, it was only then everyone saw the dedicated fan base in
all its glory.
Petitions has been created and
signed by thousands, with the biggest being over 300,000. People’s comments
were saying that Lucifer was the best TV show around, and it was an insult to
cancel it after a major moment everyone had been waiting patiently for so long.
It was officially announced on 16th
June that Netflix had picked it up for a fourth season, and there was much
rejoicing among fans. I signed the petition and eagerly waited for the news we
all wanted. Netflix was our knight in shining armour. We’re getting a season 4,
and maybe more after that.
The two bonus episodes released by
Fox after the cancellation that would be slotted into season 4 (the same as a
few bonus episodes filmed during season 2 were slotted into season 3), saw
Chloe stating she’d seen a lot of crazy stuff, indicating she had come to terms
with Lucifer’s true identity. Whilst most of us knew she would eventually
accept the truth, it would be interesting to see their relationship develop
from the cliff hanger onwards. How will their relationship as friends, work
colleagues, and as potential lovers be affected? All of that will be explored
in season 4.
I am absolutely confident Lucifer
will continue entertaining the masses and I therefore will make Netflix second
guess cancelling the show if that option ever comes up for whatever reason, as
there may be an even greater backlash than before.
All we can do now is revel in our
success with bringing the show back, and wait that little bit more for season
4.
On a slightly different but
related topic… Can Netflix revive Torchwood?
