Featured reviews
What happens when someone takes an awesome television series, mixes a bunch of retconning elements, adds a dash of back flash with fan pandering with elements of humor?
They get this unnecessary overindulgence of an episode.
In my opinion it is barely watchable. I refuse to release spoilers, like specific parts of media. Even if the series or movie is ten years old. Leave some mystery!
I digress... This show is great. Just because I have a problem with this style of storytelling doesn't mean that I am not a fan anymore. I consider these series swing and miss episodes. Sometimes thinking out of the box gets someone an emmy and then sometimes it gets a review like mine.
Love the show!

This is a fairly good episode which basically introduced us - again - to the main characters. While enjoyable to watch the history behind the character development it felt more like a pilot episode than an addition to the series. If there were half stars this would have gotten 7.5.
First, the channel I've been watching this series on has had some really bad problems since the end of last month. All of their programmed movies and series have been unavailable and really, really, REALLY crappy music concerts and documentaries have been in place of the good stuff. I have been waiting for an eternity to get my Laura German/Tom Ellis fix and tonight, as though nothing ever happened, LUCIFER was back.
Flash back episodes are usually anvil throwing trashtaculars passed off when writers are on strike or there's some other problem. No anvils, no crapola, just a really good story that goes back to when Father has sent his favourite son to send back Lucifer to hell. With the exception of Linda Martin, everyone makes an appearance -- even Trixie via telephone, although unheard. Ah, right sorry, no Welling and no Ella
Great story-telling, all the usual points covered, beautiful women, drinking, the black corvette, some singing of Ch-ch-ch-changes, whipped cream -- sigh.
You'll enjoy this outing. But I'm not telling you any more. You'll have to wait for YOUR local station.

Lucy supposedly arived at the beach where, mazikeen cut of his wings. And in some previous episode he coments on Amandels human clothes like he is wearing it for the first time....
This one takes place in the past, and it adds unnecessary context to character traits and origins. This didn't need to be made.
I'm starting to realise why this season is 26 episodes long.

- TriviaLucifer's suit at the beginning of the episode resembles the suit worn by Lucifer in Constantine (2005). Both are adaptations of the vertigo comic character.
- Quotes
Lucifer Morningstar: Oh, i haven't heard music like that since... well, since the Silver City.
Amenadiel: What, there's no music in hell?
Lucifer Morningstar: Only for torture, and usually out of tune. Lately we've been playing music by this chap named Bieber. Gosh, you should hear the screams.
