Meet your new protagonist; The Devil. Lucifer Morningstar as he likes to be called. He's tired of hell and decided to settle into the the City of Angels; Los Angeles.
Here he is a glitzy owner of a stylish nightclub, brushing elbows with Hollywood nightlife. Then one day he and a starlet he sponsored are caught in a hail of gunfire.
The gunman swerves into a bus. The beautiful blond starlet is killed. And The Devil rises from death, mad as all hell and looking for answers....
....Now turn off the tv, bash your head against drywall for forty minutes and the resulting trauma-induced fever dream will be a better pilot than this.
10 minutes of intrigue and then subpar cop show garbage from then on. The downward spiral begins with Detective Wet B. Lanket's introduction, questioning the only witness; Lucifer.
Lucifer's Interest in her begins when his powers fail to work on her. Her interest in him is irrelevant for she is a slave to the plot. He has a suspicion that she was sent by god to F with him...In actuality it's because his power only works on people and she is just a carboard cutout to bounce Lucifer 's personality off of.
So they team up. The Devil and a mannequin dressed as a police officer; together They Fight Crime...Kinda. Its more like Manufactured stupidity disguised as "police work".
Eventually they find the real killer. The breakthrough that led to his guilt...A news channel reporting the dead starlet's album sales going skyhigh...Making the killer; her producer, rich.
Which is not actual proof of guilt. Detective Lanket came to arrest him with no proof, while bringing an unauthorized citizen in as her partner on a murder case, that ended with a dead suspect, her in the hospital and nothing admissible in court....Case closed...See you next week.
The actor playing Lucifer is the only thing done right. He'd be great in a real adaption, but instead he's in a half-assed obligatory cop show with a co-star simulating a dead fish.
Honestly, I liked this show better when it was called Constantine. Whatever happened to that show?...Oh right!
No sympathy for the devil
