Lucifer - How to make me like the holy bible

Lucifer is one of the TV shows a lot of people were telling me to watch.

The first months I was thinking "hum, I'll probably never watch it because I don't really like police series". At a moment this became "Maybe, we'll see".

When I saw more and more people watching it and saying to me to watch it I slowly started to changed my mind, step by step. Then Netflix bought it, I was really getting enthusiastic to watch it but totally forgot.

The moment I started to watch was when the season 4 arrived onto the well known platform.

That's how in around 10 days I watched everything. That's how I work, I watch the entire season 5 only today....

If you don't know anything about the series, I'll make a really quick presentation

Lucifer is the Lord of the Hell. After hundreds of thousands, of years reigning on the throne of the realm of darkness he decided to quit his kingdom to live on earth to live as a human. But a human with divine blood in his veins and the reputation of the badest person of the world.

So Now I have to say few things :

As you may have understood, I liked it. A lot. Even if I don't like police series this one is really different because THE MAIN CHARACTER IS STAN OK ? Do I have anything more to say ?

I'm atheist and never believed in any god and most of time I'm pretty bored by all the holy stories. I don't really like to have the bible's character in a movie or series because that often makes the movie or series too dramatic and can't seem realistic at all. Especially few days ago when I watched Legion...

Here the characters seem totally human and that's exactly what the series wants to show ! The angels are totally disconnected from the whole humanity. When lucifer is on Earth, he's the only one knowing how the humans are living. That makes him totally endearing. When Amenadiel comes on earth for the first time we can see that he's totally lost and it takes some time before becoming human.

There are also few bad sides of the show. I think there is too much sentences related to god or the heaven said by characters that don't know about the Lucifer's divine blood. Sometimes that can seem totally normal like a lot of "Oh my god", but there are really a lot of them, at least 2-3 per episode. Even if sometimes Lucifer changes it by saying "Oh my dad", that works the first times but for me that quickly becomes too much.

I didn't know most of the actors. I even think that I didn't know a single actor from the cast. But I really love each of them. They are all really giving life to the characters and they all have a wide palette of emotions and we can feel a lot of different things through each of them all along the show.

All of them have their bright days, their bad sides and that makes all of them great characters. I really love how they've been created during the show. Sometimes one of them can be less on the screen but there is always a moment when any of the main characters has a episode or a full ark for him/her.

I have to confess something, I'm french and I most of time watch movies with the French audio version. Maybe you find this totally understandable but when you're french and you do it you're getting mocked. especially if you work in the cinema.. And I'm editor so.. Shame on me, but don't care !
I needed to tell you that because, all the french dubbing are amazing. I really like the voice actors they chose and most of all they totally fit with their characters !

What did netflix change ? Mostly they made the Evil stronger with bigger musculature.

I can't really say if they changed something else on the show... But I can totally say they did not destroy it. Unlike a lot of TV shows that did not became the same thing over and over starting to be boring and worst at each episode. The quality kept a regular level.

Here we just have few episodes better than others. I think that may have start with the first Netflix's Season but there were few themed episodes. With a bigger artistic choice, those episodes are the ones that can make everything change for you. I found some great but others too long.

I think you should give a try to the series. And in my opinion, if you don't like the first episodes, you'll probably don't like the rest of it.

If you usually like police series and can totally watch superheroes films you should totally try it because it keeps the best of each genre.

I really loved it, and I'm writing those last lines just after seeing the last episode. And I'm not disappointed and I'm waiting to see other police series that can be as great as this one. And if you know few of them, don't hesitate to advice me !
