Gigi43 March 24, 2017 Share March 24, 2017 (edited) I think it's more like Fox realized it's a terrible idea to let the show run into June when ratings generally drop after May through summer. It could maybe be a cost saving or buying production time given they're moving shooting locations. Not buying into whole "saving them for next season thing"... so they're tossing 4 filler episodes into the next season just because they had and 18 episode arc in mind? Doubt it. That screws with next year's pacing more . 24 and APB are already lower than Lucifer and Gotham Fox should just pull them, let Gotham and Lucifer return before May then burn the rest of the other two off in June/July.

MostlyC March 26, 2017 Share March 26, 2017 Bad Form, Fox. Dangling a carrot and then yanking it away. I feel cheated. Those 4 episodes better be worth the wait. folds arms and sulks. 3 Link to comment

rainsmom April 3, 2017 Share April 3, 2017 I misunderstood what they were doing -- I thought ALL remaining episodes were moving to season 3. Not so. APparently there are four to air in May, and each STANDS ALONE. And is weird. http://deadline.com/2017/04/lucifer-wondercon-lesley-ann-brandt-rachael-harris-kevin-alejandro-season-2-news-1202057146/ Link to comment
CheshireCat April 3, 2017 Share April 3, 2017 (edited) Uh? Now they're showing the stand-alone episodes in May? I thought it was an 18-episode arc and they were moving the stand-alone episodes to S3. I'm confused. Edited April 3, 2017 by CheshireCat Link to comment
kassygreene April 3, 2017 Share April 3, 2017 They are showing five episodes in May, which happens to be a five-Monday month. So sayeth the sites I check, including thefutoncritic . 1 Link to comment
Gemini2 April 3, 2017 Share April 3, 2017 Frankly I am more than a little frustrated. We have to endure this long hiatus only to find out that we get just 5 epsiodes in May. You get past that only to get this promo that shows next to nothing. Not sure what is going on with this show right now. But I really am not feeling any love for the fans Link to comment
Zipper April 3, 2017 Share April 3, 2017 So, the show runners lovingly tendered an 18-episode arc (from the comments given at WonderCon); then Fox jacked them up with an extra 4 eps; then Fox said the extra 4 should be stand-alone eps that could go "anywhere". That sounds like a ridiculous approach. But, based on the Entertainment Weekly article, it sounds like the stand-alone eps will be the ones appearing in S3, and they get to end their original 18-ep order as they wanted to. That's a relief. I can't believe it's still 3+ weeks away. 1 Link to comment

ProudMary April 13, 2017 Share April 13, 2017 Spoilers about the upcoming May 1st episode from TV Guide:http://www.tvguide.com/news/lucifer-spoilers-fired/ Spoiler When Lucifer resurfaces, he doesn't exactly receive a hero's welcome. In the May 1 midseason premiere of Lucifer, Chloe (Lauren German) makes it clear that the titular hero (Tom Ellis) isn't welcome back in her life by giving him the boot -- not that Lucifer listens. He returns to L.A. two weeks after saving Chloe's life and disappearing without any explanation and, despite his insistence to the contrary, he still has deep feelings for Chloe. And so, when Chloe fires him from the case of a murdered musician, Lucifer does everything in his power to worm his way back into Chloe's life -- everything except tell her the truth about why he left, of course. But the biggest obstacle he'll face is the mysterious woman he brings home with him -- a woman who causes as much concern for Chloe as it does for Mom (Tricia Helfer) 4 Link to comment

Gigi43 April 29, 2017 Share April 29, 2017 I was reading about the upcoming possible writers strike, the article I was reading was about the possible impact to fall premiers since summer shows are mostly all filmed (it was about late night and soap operas -most of which are already on the brink of vanishing- being the ones immediately impacted and then the fall shows.) I'm kind of dreading Lucifer returning Monday incase there's a huge drop in ratings from the break. However when reading about the strike I couldn't help but think if there is a strike, holding those 4 episodes now could possibly (and accidentally) put it in the best shape of any of the fall shows. 1 Link to comment

Delphi July 19, 2017 Share July 19, 2017 So, I'm thinking Maze might be a bit of a non presence in the first few episodes, unless they use the episodes from last season first to make up for Lesley's maternity leave. 5 Link to comment
Featherhat July 19, 2017 Share July 19, 2017 (edited) Adorable kid, many congrats! I guess they might spread them out through out the first episodes, removing/adding scenes so continuity isn't completely screwed. But assuming they might write her light for the first in production right now and that Maze had some good scenes in the missed four then we might not notice it that much. That said I hope LAB doesn't need Maze to be written light all season because her coming in to her own was one of my favourite parts of last season and it would be a shame to dial that back (from a purely selfish perspective of course). That said if she does or even if she doesn't, they have a lot of other characters who also came into their own in S2 to explore as well. Edited July 19, 2017 by Featherhat Link to comment

wilnil August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 One (the only?) good thing about having the four "character-driven stand-alone" episodes already done is that it allows for the Comic-Con trailer to have all-new content, which is really rare this early in the filming season. I'm assuming that other than the shots of winged Lucifer, most of the rest of the scenes in the trailer are from those held-over eps. And the teasers they showed make me optimistic that those episodes are going to be worth the wait. As for those episodes (spoiler'd for those who avoided the trailer): Spoiler Here's how I interpreted what I saw, in terms of the possible stand-alone episode plots: A drunken night at Lux with the gang making fun of Luci in absentia (though that could be part of the season premiere, too). Amenadiel regaining (more of? all of?) his angelic nature -- surviving gunshots, going toe-to-toe with his brother. The misadventures of Mazikeen Smith, Bounty Hunter (at a ski lodge? Cold day in hell...). The Untold Story of Ella in Las Vegas. Any different interpretations? Anything I missed/forgot? Link to comment
retrograde August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 Spoiler "Any different interpretations? Anything I missed/forgot?" The trailer (I think? or some preview anyway) showed Dan kissing Chloe while they're at work. When quizzed about it, one of the actors suggested it's either a flashback or a whole episode set in the past. 1 Link to comment

wilnil August 1, 2017 Share August 1, 2017 @retrograde, right, I forgot that scene. Thanks. Spoiler I'm inclined to go with "flashback/episode set in the past" as well, because IIRC, Chloe is in uniform in the scene. @ProudMary, that could be. But oddly I got the opposite feel from that scene. Spoiler To me, it looked like present-day Luci being overjoyed to have his wings back, to the point of being (for him) giddy, and that's why he "flashed" them at the homeless man on the street. Gonna be tough waiting until October to see which way they go! Link to comment

He was saying it because they went there that early and usually, shows continue with the will-they-won't-they for a few seasons. I'm not sure how one kiss this early and now a love triangle makes it any different though. If the two had taken up a relationship that early, then I would have seen his point.
