Helena Dax May 8, 2019 Share May 8, 2019 Not bad at all. It seems the show is getting rid of a lot of dead weight, like Maze and Linda's fallout over Amenadiel or the forced tension between Luci and Maze. I also found Luci more threatening and less clownish, which was great. Loved every scene with Maze, especially with Linda. I lost it when Amy came in to "stop the fight for him" lol I spent the whole episode thinking that Chloe's reaction was quite understable right until the final twist. OMG. I guess they're planning to send him back to Hell (I can't see her trying to kill him), but it's still a pretty shitty thing to do. Also, her new face was a bit distracting. 6 Link to comment

tennisgurl May 8, 2019 Share May 8, 2019 I am glad we get individual episode threads, so we can talk about each episode without having to worry about spoilers, even if it can be hard to wait between episodes during a binge! Well damn, now this is a show that I can be excited about getting another season! Its like you could see the writers coming on screen saying "yeah, we`re really sorry about all that crap last season, we`re gonna do better, we promise!" It does make you wonder how much was the show runner and writers, and how much of the flaws of next season were network interference... People are acting like normal people, not bobbleheads come to life, which is wonderful to see. Ella is cute and not annoying, Maze is awesome and not pathetic, Lucifer can be threatening and not clownish, its great. Maze is back to her normal, awesome self, with no stupid love triangle in sight! I so missed her and Linda being besties and her friendships with Chloe and Trixie, and how she apologized and they forgave her, after saying their piece. And Linda has been taking kickboxing classes, look out yall. And Maze speaking in a demon language. And Amenadiel running in to "stop fighting" and realizing that everything was sorted out. Just so great to be back to the good times. Amenadiel desperately looking for excuses to stay in LA but finally admitting that he just wants to stay and be with everyone there because its what he wants was a really great character beat, and his scene with Dan was really lovely. Sasha Roiz sighting! Nice to see him pop up here, playing a guy who really picked the wrong job if he hates criminals. See, the parallel was somewhat subtle between the crime and events with the characters, not over the top ridiculous! Damn Chloe! What did you do?! At least her apparently being some kind of church double agent working against Lucifer makes her interesting. 12 Link to comment

Sakura12 May 9, 2019 Share May 9, 2019 That was great, I'm completely fine with them glossing over most of the stupid crap that happened last season. The VFX budget also looks like it went up. We saw Luci's devil face more than a couple times. I loved seeing Maze and Linda being friends again and hearing Maze speak in her demon language. Also loved her making up with Trixie. Poor Amen just wanted to have someone say they wanted him to stay. I did like him getting Dan to know that Charlotte was in the good place. I wonder if Dan will find out Amen's an Angel. Did not see Chloe working with a priest to send Luci back to hell. I knew she wasn't okay with everything, but didn't see that. Even though I should've caught on when she was trying to keep Maze away from Trixie. This has made her character a tad bit more interesting, which isn't saying much when watching paint dry was more interesting than her. 1 6 Link to comment

tennisgurl May 9, 2019 Share May 9, 2019 (edited) Having not seen the next episode yet, I am truly curious as to how Chloe got in touch with some kind of anti devil crusade within the Catholic church and started working for them. Is there a tip line you can call if you happen to bump into Satan? 1-800-ISAWTHEDEVIL? Did she just wander into church and say "so I've been chilling with Satan..."? Is there a website? Are there crybermonks that monitor all google searches for "what to do if my friend I kind of have a thing for might be the actual devil"? Strike teams of exorcists that have been waiting for their moment to bring Lucifer down? Because I dont remember any of that from Catholic school! Edited May 9, 2019 by tennisgurl 8 Link to comment
dwmarch May 9, 2019 Share May 9, 2019 One of my favorite shows is back with a fresh new start! What a relief it is to see this show firing on all cylinders once again! There were obvious improvements, such as Linda hanging a lampshade on Luci's tendency to take whatever part of her advice he could apply to his own situational benefit and then running off with it and applying it in all kinds of incorrect ways. In previous episodes this has just manifested as Luci acting like an idiot until somebody loses their cool with him. But in this episode he's not dumb, he's just needy. The other characters lost some annoying or pathetic traits as well. I don't know the lore from the comics but there seemed to be some expansions and clarifications here. Amenadiel can enter and exit Heaven as he pleases whereas it seemed to be a one-way trip before. We actually get to hear a demon language and it sounded appropriately demonic! Luci's mojo doesn't work unless he maintains eye contact with the victim and Amenadiel seems to have his own mojo where he can convince a human of something they can't verify. Also, God is Catholic which I don't think this show established previously. On to episode two! 3 Link to comment
thuganomics85 May 9, 2019 Share May 9, 2019 I wasn't sure when the show was coming back, but I luckily caught that it was dropping on the 8th on my feeds. Whew! I'll remain cautious for a bit, but right now, it feels like TPTB realized their missteps last season, and are taking good steps in the right direction. Characters are back to acting like they're suppose to, but are also being effected by the changes. Storylines are fun and entertaining, but going in unexpected directions. And all of the great character moments. Again, the show's cast has always been the strong point, and I'm hoping they'll all get their due here. Case of the week was fun, but going by the normal "the recognizable name/face did it" rule, I knew it was either going to be Graham McTavish or Sasha Roiz once I saw their names in the credits, and once I realized McTavish wasn't going to show up any time soon, I knew it was going to be Roiz's character. Why, yes, I probably got way too giddy over the Maze/Trixie reunion. I just love the friendship between that knife-happy demon and one of the best child characters on television! Now, don't screw it up again, Maze! Amenadiel eventually accepting that L.A. is his new home was a bit obvious, but still a nice moment. And he was there for poor Dan! Aww, Dan! Linda is still is awesome. Hell, even Ella seem to be back in better form this go around. I'm glad that Chloe didn't talk herself into thinking she just hallucinated everything and truly believes that Lucifer is the Devil. But she is now working against him with the priest played by Graham McTavish? Not good. And I certainly don't trust him. Curious to see where this all goes. I do think having the entire season out now will help, because it will benefit more being viewed like this instead of the crazy schedule it had on FOX. And hopefully ten episodes will cut back on most of the filler. Either way, I'm optimistic for now, and that's a good thing. 7 Link to comment

I did watch the first two episodes last night, but it will take a little time before I can watch the final eight. Echoing what most have said - the characters are recognizable again. Especially Maze and Ella. Glad to see Amenidude back. Dr. Linda is into martial arts for self-defense. She did get a good shot in at Maze. Speaking of Maze, the best reunion was Maze and Trixie. So glad those two are all good and ready to raise hell together. Possibly quite literally. As someone mentioned upthread, it was good to see Lucifer being needy, but not acting like a clown. And having his full mojo. Being on Netflix now, it seems that Tom Ellis is really going to be allowed to bring out the truly best/worst in Lucifer w/o being constrained by the Foxies. I was quite surprised when Chloe was in the church and the priest actually knew about Lucifer. Will have to see where that storyline goes.

ProudMary May 10, 2019 Share May 10, 2019 Very enjoyable first episode, right from the open with Lucifer's month of nights rendition of "Creep." It was great to get a musical number from Tom Ellis right at the beginning. The characters are SO much better written than in the disaster that was Season 3. I'm glad Maze's apology to Trixie was so quickly and willingly accepted. Loved the twist at the end! Chloe's arc may actually be interesting this season!

Lugal May 10, 2019 Share May 10, 2019 Just watched the first episode and this feel like the show I loved in Seasons 1 & 2. Most of the stupid crap from last year seems to be gone and the Celestials seem to be front and center again. Everyone acting like real people, especially Ella. My crush on Aimee Garcia aside, she was way over the top last year and seems like the Ella we first met. These were the interactions I missed: Dan and Amenadiel, Maze and Trixie, Maze and Linda. Curious where they're going with Chloe and Father Graham McTavish (Father Dwalin?) But it gives her a little more depth. I kind of guessed Sasha Roiz was the villain, because, well, it was Sasha Roiz (who I'm sure is a perfectly nice person) Link to comment
mledawn May 11, 2019 Share May 11, 2019 Enjoyed the episode, except the ending. I don't recall any indication that Chloe was a person of strong faith, let alone Catholic so that rang hollow for me. Loved seeing Graham McTavish, sad there was no Scots accent. 1 Link to comment

Zipper May 12, 2019 Share May 12, 2019 Whoohoo! My old show is back! Many positive developments, as you've noted above. They cleared up so much garbage from last season, returning the characters to people I enjoy watching. Didn't mind that the crime of the week was a little predictable, because we moved so much stupid out of the way for a great season. Linda, Maze, and Ella were all high notes for me. And Trixie!! Having Chloe undertaking some action against Luci (presumably in league with the church based on what the priest said) is a cool way to move her from total disbelief to total comprehension, with a side of "wtaf, the Devil is real and maybe not entirely a good thing for people," and I'm glad it gives Lauren German something interesting to do. It's an active response that seems totally in character for Chloe, and potentially sets up some amazing tension with Luci. Well done, show. I'm one of those who does not need them to be in a relationship, so I really like this approach, and I'm interested to see how it plays out. I was going to watch just one, but that turned into four, so I won't comment on much more for fear of accidentally spoiling. Thanks to the Mods for multiple episode threads! Link to comment

Maze's general character assasination last season, Maze not apologising to Trixie and that just being glossed over, the cat fight over Amenadiel, etc. I appreciated that so, so much. I was doubtful from the beginning when it looked like Maze was only going to be playing second fiddle to Lucifer's Chloe-angst, without acknowledging that she too was afraid of having another friend look at her the way Linda did at first (and Lucifer snapping that it would hardly help matters to have a demon track Chloe down was particularly jerky in that light), but it quickly became apparent that the show was going to go there after all. The apologies to Dr. Linda last season and Trixie tonight were perfect, but I also had something in my eye when Maze cuffed herself to the chair before Chloe got home. (Although I was skeptical of the efficacy of said measure...and said skepticism was quickly borne out. Hee.) Aside from the demon issue, I would have liked to see her apologize to Chloe too, for manipulating her during the Cain mess, but at this point, how much of that does Chloe even know about? (And this was really the only aspect of Chloe's reaction I didn't like - in addition to the bare fact that Lucifer is actually the devil, there's so much she doesn't know about the events of the rest of the series in light of that, and I would have liked to see some curiosity from her.) 2 Link to comment
Athena5217 May 21, 2019 Share May 21, 2019 I loved this episode. Ironically, I feel like I got my old show back now that it has a new home. No one has mentioned this yet so I have to ask... Was anyone else bothered by Lucifer licking his fingers sticking them back in the jar of honey? That’s so unsanitary and messy. I have never seen avocado honey before, but now I want to try it.

sinkwriter May 21, 2019 Share May 21, 2019 (edited) Got a chance to watch this premiere episode tonight. WOW. Agree with all the comments above, and I too am glad that they seem to have tightened up the show. Looking forward to seeing more!! I thought maybe Chloe would say she's okay, but slowly descend into insanity. Instead, she's being duplicitous... oh boy. Lucifer is NOT going to take that well. She's supposed to be the one he trusts most. This could be interesting (and really painful) to watch -- I'm already sympathizing with the devil. 😉 P.S. I loved "Creep," especially as Lucifer kept singing it and we saw him changing, getting more and more disheveled and clearly upset. Nice touch. P.S. again. The scene between Dan and Amenadiel made me tear up. That was really well played. Okay, more more... yay for Trixie forgiving Maze. (And I wonder how long it will take Maze to convince Lucifer that Chloe is NOT okay with the two of them, because you know Maze realizes it, given that Chloe lied to her about Trixie still being mad.)

It feels as if someone took a squeegie and wiped away all the crap the show was splattered with last season.

Dan flipped out at Lucifer in that prior episode (“A Devil of my Word”) when Lucifer disclosed that he knew Pierce was the Sinnerman well before Dan even came to them with that information (Dan then lunged at Lucifer, which Lucifer turned into a hug, as people at the precinct were watching). Here, I think Dan is just displacing his rage that Charlotte is dead completely onto Lucifer because he is so grief-stricken and the only other person to blame (Pierce) is dead (a microcosm of what happens in this universe that people blame the devil for evil when it is within man himself). It’s not rational, but is just lashing out at the one person with whom he had had a highly prickly relationship to begin with. I enjoyed Lucifer’s concerned focus on Chloe when she first turns up at the crime scene. He’s missed her so much, but knows that things are not right, and Tom Ellis really sells how off-balance the interactions with Chloe seem. Linda was poking at the idea in this episode that Lucifer had killed a human for the first time when he killed Pierce, and had maybe even enjoyed doing it, but he wasn’t correspondingly dealing with the emotional fallout from that. Maybe there is something to the idea that he enjoyed it, but at least from one perspective, he killed Pierce in self-defense: it was a battle to the death where it was “kill or be killed” (especially with Pierce having an insidious network to threaten all the people in Lucifer’s circle for as long as Pierce was alive). But I kind of felt that they missed the exploration of this being perhaps Lucifer’s most express rejection of Dad’s will in the series (excluding the rebellion): Cain had been sentenced to roam the Earth forever, and Lucifer helped reverse that. This is actually my least favorite episode of S4. Chloe’s reactions and actions in this episode are objectively understandable, but after three seasons of her saying that she knows who he really is, it is painful to see (and not really that enjoyable for me from a dramatic perspective) that she is actively betraying him here (versus Linda’s reaction of just distancing from Lucifer and Maze for a week or so). 1 Link to comment

StarBrand August 7, 2019 Share August 7, 2019 Thank heaven this show got saved by Netflix. It would have been infuriating to have ended the series where season three left off. I liked seeing Lucifer get cuf off from saying WTF just as the opening credits rolled. Nice wink about being on Netflix now. I figured Chloe was not as fine with Lucifier as she kept saying she was. It wouldn't really have made sense for her to be "oh I've been working with the actual devil, that's cool". Having Chloe out of the know for so long was frustrating, but it's good that we can now see how she reacted to that revelation. The last scene would seem to suggest she's in favour of operating against Lucifer, but I think you can already see how conflicted she is about him. 1 Link to comment
milizard December 17, 2019 Share December 17, 2019 I've never liked the song that Lucifer played in the beginning--until now. That was gorgeously sung, and haunting with the audience and suit changes, set against that lighting making it look slightly disturbing. Then, in true Lucifer fashion, it ends in his making a joke. Loved it! 1 Link to comment
