> [@gytalf2000](#): > > Drat! In spite of my disappointment with this season, I still enjoy the show. Yeah, it’s not a death knell or anything, but sites like The Hollywood Reporter, TVLine, etc. have it just slightly less than a 50% chance of a renewal. It’s a shame, too, because tonight’s show is supposed to be a cliff-hanger. I wish more show-runners would disclose what direction the next season of their cancelled shows were going to go. ---

> [@gytalf2000](#): > > I enjoy seeing all the characters, but the quality of the show has definitely gone down this season. I would like to see it return to its former glory! Bad writing. Every epi has the same theme- Lucifer gets a weird idea in his head _as for some reason the Ruler of Hell doesnt understand humans,_ :dubious: pushes it hard, annoys the Detective with it, then Lucifer learns a little lesson. ---

I really enjoy it too, it’s very different in look and feel than other shows. Yes I have gripes about writing and plot but it doesn’t mean I don’t watch every episode eagerly. ---

Okay, the season is rapidly drawing to a close. The penultimate episode airs tonight : Lucifer, Season 3, Episode 23 (May 7, 2018) – "Quintessential Deckerstar " ---

Well. _That_ was a surprise. ☹ I really hope Pierce is going down next episode. With extreme prejudice. He’s been an ass all season, and after tonight I want him gone more than ever. ---

That was the best episode I’ve seen in a while. So glad Amenadiel got his wings back and went to the home he’s longed for with what’s her name. Maybe he’ll be bored in Heaven and return to earth next season? Is Maze really dead? The might explain why they’ve made her so demonically unpleasant lately, so fans won’t mind her being killed off quite so much. And, if tortures in hell are mostly self-inflicted, why is there a need for demon torturers anyway? Or perhaps that is their natural home. I suspect that Chloe is going to kill Pierce, and that she is the only one who will be able to do so. I will be so glad to see the end of him. I dislike the character and the actor who played him. His arc brought the whole show down, down, down. The next episode could be a satisfying conclusion to the series, if it is not renewed. If it is, it will be able to go in a refreshing new direction. However, Lucifer as a happy family man and law-abiding, ethical person destroys the premise of the show. ---

I was disappointed that Maze lost the fight. I wanted to see her really wreck Cain. He shouldn’t have had any chance at all against the sexy demoness. Of course, he did have to resort to trickery, in the end. ---

Of course, he did have to resort to trickery, in the end. I don’t think she’s done with him yet, and I definitely don’t think she’s dead. I’m guessing next episode a certain annoying ass of a formerly-immortal police captain is going to be in a world of hurt as several people line up to have their shot at him. ---

Wow, Charlotte’s death hit me harder than I thought it would. Poor Dan. The previews indicate that Pierce will get a beat down. Good, even if it means he gets his earlier wish of death. Brian ---

She’s not dead - just shot up with the same knockout drug she was going to use on Ammedadeal. ---

So now I’m down to _Gotham_ and _The Gifted_ on FOX, and I won’t be adding any new FOX shows next season. FOX is really looking out for me, cutting down on my TV viewing. ---

> [@DPRK](#): > > Don’t forget, there are 75 issues of Mike Carey _Lucifer_ comics for your Lucifer fix. Yes, but that version of Lucifer has nothing to do with the tv character Lucifer. Sigh. A good concept and a good beginning entirely thrown away by crappy show running and crappy writing this season. What happened to them? But at least Amenadiel got his wings back. That was satisfying. ---

Bad news indeed. I don’t really want it to be a CW show but I guess it’s better than nothing. There are several campaigns to save Lucifer and here is an interview with Tom Ellis: [Tom Ellis on ‘Lucifer’ Cancellation — Will #SaveLucifer Earn Season 4? | TVLine](http://tvline.com/2018/05/14/lucifer-cancelled-tom-ellis-interview-save-lucifer-campaign/) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lucifer-season-three/797818.md?page=10) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/lucifer-season-three/797818.md?page=12)
