Lucifer, Season Three

Wouldn’t be the first time. Sometimes it is a way of saying “thank you”, giving the stunt people an acting credit and possibly a boost to their episode payday.

Why does Cain want to die? I can understand wanting oblivion, but wouldn’t he just go to hell and relive killing his brother over and over again? It would be far worse than his life is now.

I think he should try the acid bath again. How exactly do you come back from that? Or a volcano? What would be left of you?

It has been stated that people only go to Hell if they believe that they deserve Hell. He may think that’s he’s had enough punishment by now.

He started going into his theory - whatever bit had the most matter is what regrew/healed.

The Volcano took 6 months… I’m not exactly what ‘bit’ was left - I guess just his ash.

I’m betting that a trip to the center of the sun would do Cain in nicely. Of course, God could just yank him out and set the healing process into motion again.

Yeah I think he said “master molecule” or something. Seems to me his only chances are to make up with God or travel to another dimension for at least a change of pace.

Hey, there will be a new episode tonight!

Lucifer, Season Three, Episode Fourteen (February 5, 2018) – “My Brother’s Keeper”

Somewhere, someplace, there would be a Cain molecule. Toenail clipping, hair, whatever.
Even dropped into the sun wouldnt work, if that was the case.

I didnt see the point behind chainsaw. Lucifer must have known it. Trying the hell steel was a good idea, however.

So, Maze is perhaps not the best influence on Trixie?

I like Luci looking out for Miss Lopez - do no mess with the devil’s friends.

The between A and Cain/Pierce was fun. I liked that, other than being unstoppable, Cain was no match for an angel, even an unpowered one.

The show is better when Lucifer and Amenadiel are at odds, so glad we’re back to that. Do we know when Amenadiel tried to have Lucifer killed? It’s not ringing any bells, so I’m guessing that at least we didn’t know A was behind it?

YEs, Amenadiel tried to have Lucifer killed in season 1, when he realized proximity to Chloe made him vulnerable - it was the arc with the nearly dead detective using a gun provided by the x-husband, etc.

I loved Trixie’s scene with Ella and Maze. So cute!

The fight scene with Amenadiel and Cain was great! It seemed like Amenadiel was displaying at least slight superhuman strength, at times. I wonder…

It was nice to see Dr. Linda overcome her quite-justified fears regarding Charlotte. The subsequent therapy sessions should prove to be entertaining.

Yes, Amenadiel brought Detective Douche’s partner back from the dead in order to get him to kill Lucifer. He did kill Lucifer, but Dad brought Lucifer back in order to deal with Mom, who escaped from hell.

They need to bring in better writers, or more consistent writers. Borrow some of the writers from The Good Place? The characterizations are all over the map, inconsistent, illogical. It seems to be getting worse as the seasons go on, making me thin that they have no overall plan in mind.

Cain and Amenadiel share the biggest sin, ie, lack of sense of humor. Same with Maze, and sometime Lucifer. They all take themselves too seriously.

Immortality doesn’t seem to be good, actually detrimental, for character development. An eternity of adolescent grudges and shoulder chips and obsessions is not a pretty thing.

Don’t forget that Amenadiel was the one who arranged for the creation of Chloe in the first place, again “only the messenger,” no doubt.

It’s the writers’ fault, as you point out, played for laughs but not that interesting. Don’t the credits state that the show is only “based on” Neil Gaiman’s characters?

Any opinions on last night’s episode – Lucifer, Season Three, Episode Fifteen (February 26, 2018) – “High School Poppycock”?

I thought it had some really cute moments (I loved the “prom date” at the end) but they kinda lost me when Chloe

…fired her gun at a metal fitting between her partner and a suspect.

Even by the loose standards of this show, that was a bit much. That could very easily have gone disastrously wrong.

Loved the dinner conversation with Linda, Todd, Maze, and Amenadiel, though. “I make my own toothpaste!”

You’re right, that was a bit foolhardy of Chloe!

And the blind date was both awkward and hilarious!

There will be a new episode airing tonight :
Lucifer, Season Three, Episode Sixteen (March 5, 2018) – “Infernal Guinea Pig”

The case of the week was a yawn pretty much as usual, but all in all I thought it was a very entertaining episode. So now we know that Lucifer can just pop to hell and back at will, and insert souls in recently dead bodies with some degree of imprecision.

I find that I watch Lucifer for the ongoing story arc and not the individual mysteries.

OTOH, I watch iZombie for the crime of the week and not the story arc, which has just gotten stupid.
