I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

My father taught me a number of positive traits like charity, resilience, assertiveness, compassion, respect, duty, taking care of family, etc.; that exemplify being a "man." I don't pretend to be all those things but it seems internet culture has twisted this idea because being a "man" is now apparently a bad thing because it somehow damages women when in reality it has nothing to do with women. So the guys on television are now a bunch of wishy washy man babies. So I don't think the problem is that you have no idea what it means but that you want, or have been taught, to believe that thinking in terms of gender is wrong. It isn't. Gender isn't a bad thing.

This subject needs a little something. Let me help.

Today I learned that women can't be resilient, charitable, assertive, compassionate, giving, dutiful, respectful or take care of a family. I had no idea. Guess I better quit my job taking care of sick people before someone mistakes me for a man!

This seems hopeful:
http://comicbook.com/dc/amp/2018/06/25/lucifer-season-4-to-introduce-major-new-character/


article posted:

some of the biggest early conflicts between the producers and the studio and network were the times when Henderson and Modrovich wanted to delve into the mythology behind Lucifer, which flew in the face of an understanding by the money people that the show would be more or less a police procedural.

It appears as though, heading into a fourth season and with a rabid fan base behind them, the pair are going to delve into a new area of the mythology when the series comes back to Netflix.

Also something about introducing a new character.

Also, the 10 episodes are going to be released all at once and filming is scheduled to be complete in December 2018.

Edit:

I agree with that. I liked his introduction as Cain, the lead up to him being the Sinnerman and the final episode. The love triangle was strung out for way too long.

Also, I don't understand why everybody hates Ella. I didn't like her at first, but her optimism has grown on me. The show needed someone like that and Dan wasn't going to do it.

Ella was good, Charlotte was better. Also that note in the article that the two showrunners butted heads with the network over mythology vs procedural speaks volumes in TVland-speak--I could be wrong, and next year y'all can lambaste me if they keep loving up in all the same ways, but I think all the (super true) complaints that they spun their wheels too hard and didn't delve into the cool weird poo poo enough are going to get addressed in season 4. Also when trying to google this article on a work computer I didn't have SA access on, I ran across "WILL LUCIFER GET MORE NAKED NEXT SEASON?" I didn't read it, but I chuckled. Yep, that's exactly what the people wanna know, bless you, internet clickholes.

A thing from the comic is that they never quite explained the mechanics of angel sex because they were all smooth downstairs.

He just rolled up junk out on the detective in season 1 when she went to see him. I think she'd had mentioned something missing. Same scene where she sees his scars for the first time.

She's the quirky pixie dream technician everyone loves. Isn't she pretty, isn't she wonderful etc. etc.

Like Dan everything potentially interesting about her has no narrative significance or conflict with the main cast. She's a straightforward helper monkey with entirely superficial characterisation.

I'm curious about that too. Will the first seasons disappear from amazon and show up on netflix, or will you need amazon prime to watch old seasons and netflix to watch new?

Seasons 1 to 3 are on Hulu in the US right now. It will be interesting.

Edit: if I'm being honest, I wish Netflix had picked up Timeless instead of Lucifer.

Just started catching up after deciding to start rewatching the entirety of Supernatural cause "it'll probably not take too long" back in February.

How come the last two episodes are so janky? They feel so out of place and big cop out after the end of the Pierce arc reeeeeeeee
Also, do you guys think the show will change any when it switches to Amazon? Have any other shows been picked up by Amazon that we can compare with?

Netflix, not Amazon. Also those last two episodes were holdovers that were supposed to be slotted into next season when it was going to air on Fox.
