How boring can the life of an immortal be? Lucifer got tired of reigning in hell, he comes to earth, he has a night club, he does what he wants, he doesn't know the concept of boundaries, and suddenly he meets a detective who pursues only justice, and she is not affected by his mojo. Of course Lucifer will find her interesting, finally something out of the ordinary for him.
Exactly, I love that they don't yet explicitly say why he likes her, because even he doesn't fully get it yet. Lucifer, esp. at this point is very superficial, so what he's going to mention is her looks.
Yet at the same time we see him notice her sense of justice, of giving people second chances. On top of her not taking any of his crap, and as you said, she's not affected by his mojo, unlike anyone else.
We're not told this in so many words, but it's clear if you pay attention.
@@liliaeth The intrigue of the unknown. Similar to the restricted and forbidden fruit for teenagers.
Just from an immortal POV.
Trixie's actress is one of the best child actresses I've ever seen.
The character is loveable, the girl does a great job, and I'm hoping she has a bright future.
Scarlett Estevez is 16 now and has a Disney contract, how time flies, right? anyway, she played Ultra Violet on the Disney series of the same name, but it got cancelled after just one season, she is also on other disney stuff but not really anything breakthrough-ish so far, i do wish her luck of course.
So many child actors are tedious to watch, but Trixie is just a joy. Also, cute as a button.
@@butterw55It also helps that the show knows just the balance of putting her in just enough without overdoing it. So every time she's a fresh breath of air, a fun or emotional moment, without pushing her onto the screen to the point that it becomes annoying. And it also helps that her scenes give depth to the characters she's on screen with.
It just kills me the way she says "This isn't even in HD!"
the little girl from modern family was also good
One of the things I was pleasantly surprised by with this show is how they handled Linda and her role as a therapist. Yeah there's the supernatural horniness/crossing a line with a patient stuff, but she's honestly one of the better uses/portrayals of a therapist in a longer form narrative I've seen. So frequently they're just obstacles for a main character to get around, but she is actually filling a role of helping Lucifer w some legitimate problems and is also given her own character arc
I think she's also an expansionary character, in that we can get background dumps with her to explain Lucifer's motivations and actions better... She gives Lucifer context.
Linda is MVP
"It's been millennia and they're still talking about it!" -- That's family for you. I bet when you see your family they still bring up the silly thing you did when you were four. This touch is actually one of my favourite elements of the early shows. The dialogue, the music, the attitude, etc. is all fun, but this point is important. Amenadiel is trying to come across as Heaven's big enforcer, telling Lucifer what to do, but really he's just a younger brother whose only leverage is to remind big bro about the one time he pissed off Dad.
I always loved that Lucifer always keeps his promises and always tells the truth. Also, I totally ADORE Maze. :)
"She had him in the trunk?" That's what Mazikeen does.
4:45 Maze:
Shhhhhhh!!!!!! Spoilers! 😂😂😂
Honestly, I never really thought of that. However, now I can't get it out of my head...especially knowing Maze 😂
@@singingwolf3929 Let me know if you want a link.
Its cute that you think Lucifer would care if something can be used in court. LOL
Or that the judge, under his desire influence *or* who owes him a favor, would care either 😂
"So it seems that he's the Devil if you do things that irk him..." Yes. That's point. He was cast down to punish the guilty. He doesn't do it by choice. It's a task as punishment for his own actions in rising up and standing up for freedom of choice.... Yeah he really needs more time with Doctor Linda (which, without spoilers, he's gonna get.. you'll love her) :-)
The irony is he was cast down to punish the guilty as PUNISHMENT for committing the crime of showing MERCY to Adam and Eve in the DC comics.
Or was he cast down to 'Rule'? Following the constant theme of self-actualization, did he take it on himself to 'Punish'? (No need to reply or take it too seriously. Ha!)@@ChibiHoshiDragon
when he tosses that thing to distract the child, and seeing her look after the thing and then back at him, I keep being reminded about that dinosaur in jurassic park. 'yeah, that looks cool....but I'm hungry' :P
"I see a parallel!" Whaaaaatttt? On *this* show? Parallels between the case and Lucifer? Never! I'm so shocked how you could think that! 😂
(Inb4 Poe's Law bites me in the ass: yes, this was entirely sarcastic 😂)
The Ex is the superior officer, and she was in his division as a rookie. That's why they are in the same environment. They started there and she married him in that situation.
Funny little backstory, the DC character of Lucifer Morningstar was based off David Bowie. I think he did a pretty good job of it.
Lucifers interaction with the faithful is a treat.
Tom Ellis did not Only play D C's Lucifer on Lucifer He also played that character on crisis infinite earths of the arrow verse Of The CW. It was the Lucifer before he met Chloe as well
I love watching your reactions to Lucifer because you're a writer, and you recognize good writing. Keep watching - it only gets better!
his powerset: immortality, the devil face, noone can lie to him, flight (whenever he has his Wings), super speed.
no super speed. and people can lie to him. usually he can make them spill their biggest desire, but otherwise they can and do lie to him
Maybe super-speed via flight, or when his brother helps him out, but not Flash-like speed.
It's both. A nightclub on the ground floor and his apartment over the night club.
I enjoy how they use a line of dialogue as the title. I have no idea why that’s so entertaining. 😊
Might be because it helps us remember a bit more about the events of the episode by just reading its title, even after a long time...
Lucifer is on ny top 5 comfort shows. Usually a great palette cleanser right after a heavy show.
Quick notes: season one filmed in Vancouver, they moved to LA for season 2 forward. The goat eyes only appeared in the pilot by mistake. Lucifer has been on vacation for about 5 years so far.
Same for me (comfort show)
Some more stuff. After finishing the reaction. Power scale is hard to say because in the comics Lucifer is like 3rd most powerful in the dc universe. But in the show he has standard angel stuff like invoulnarability, super metabolism. its never said but he has a bit of super hearing, like hearing a conversation from across the room or around a street corner. Super strength. And angels get their own special power. Lucifer brings out the desire of someone, Amenadiel slows down time for non celestials to navigate the world without being seen.
Lucifer wasn't trapped in hell. Hes visited many times. Kinda like "ooh lots of interesting people are showing up let me see what's been happening up there". Amenadiel is just like "dude get back to work its been 5 years, cant you behave like the rest if us angels."
Chloe does have to big chips on her shoulders and once they are taken care of she feels more natural.
Doctor linda is great with all her bits
Who's dad's favorite? Is the question that dominates sibling rivalries in every large family...At least with humans, the runt of the liter usually survives. Why 5 years ago? Why not? It's revealed in future episodes, that the Devil has dropped in on Earth frequently in the past...It wasn't unusual except this time he stayed... Why now? Because of Delilah perhaps Lucifer hadn't witnessed a brazen crime in front of him like that before (or recently)... The earthly plane of existence is not the normal place for demons and angels - they normally exist on the ethereal plane outside of our normal space/time domain. So an angel can appear in the earthly plane anywhere or anywhen, as needed.... Thats how Amenadiel could come to the stand off when summoned by Lucifer. If time heals all wounds, angels could be wondering around the ethereal plane for eons, and not emotionally heal, because they're not existing in a time domain to have healing? (My Speculation) I tried to be as nonspecific as possible to clarify the situation without spoilers. Also Delilah is a biblical character - she betrayed Samson to the Philistines, which lead to his torture and death...
Samson was the first suicide in the bible
One image I love from this episode is at 22:03 where Lucifer & Amenadiel are having a celestial chat in the slowed time frame while Chloe's gun arm is slowly rising to firing position. So cool!
One of the great tragedies in this episode is at 23:20 where we learn that "Hot Tub Highschool" wasn't shot in HD.
I think the joke is that it WAS in HD, but the copy Chloe had was on DVD, so that copy wasn't in HD.
@@Anaerin A tragedy either way.
Lucifer's Brother, A-men-a-deal , A-menn a-deal ,
But spelled Amenadiel 😁
Well tbh i kinda liked the Andreaphille... xD (25:19)
I liked your reaction. All your questions will be answered. Lol .
The plot is unique and funny.
Remember, he made a deal with Doctor Linda that he would have sex with her if she listened to his "existential dilemmas".
Now, the detective is a detective. She deals with facts and not beliefs.
All of the primary characters get a lot of character development over the course of the series, which is really great because we see this as a rich world with complex characters and story arcs as the show progresses.
except ella. still wish they did something with that azrael "easter egg"
@@alexanderzack3720Agreed.
I always loved the subtle jokes. At the piano, Lucifer is playing the song "King of Pain".
Whoever made the music choices for this show is a genius. Even if we don't hear the lyrics, the lyrics have meaning for the scene in almost all cases.
This was one of my favorite shows when it was on. Still have a man crush on Tom Ellis. This iteration of Lucifer is owned by DC Comics, and the show is based on the comics, so somewhere in the literary universe of this show is a large man from Krypton and a guy dressed like a bat.
It's an interesting take on "the Devil" and what the role of Lucifer is. Season 1 is a little tropey, but character growth abounds throughout the show as a whole. Chloe will quickly become more than just a pretty face and talk of the movie she was in. Laura German, Chloe's actor, is known to have the dirtiest mind of everyone on the cast, and the cast is very much a family they chose. There's not much I love entertainment-wise more than a cast that truly adore one another.
This show is addictive, as we get to know the characters better and see the development of their relationships. Looking forward to seeing Episode 3.
You edited this episode very well….no complaint here 😊 Thanks again for reacting to this series. I love the balance of the writing…you get a lot of clever humorous bits but you also get a little darkness plus you get to see how gradually the characters change in the show. You will learn more about the history of the characters as well. Some find it hard to warm up to Chloe because she seems to have only two concerns in life…seeking justice and raising her daughter. She basically has no friends or relationships outside of work and Trixie so it’s fun to watch her change with Lucifer’s influences. I found Chloe more interesting after watching some Lucifer bloopers…Lauren German is a hoot and really shows what she puts into being the serious cop and mom role. Hold onto your hat because you are going to see some awesome character development from every single person on the show. Fun, fun, fun 🤩
That sucks that you've had so much trouble getting this uploaded, but know that your efforts are appreciated.
To your first point about them still talking about millennia-old news, note that Lucifer finds himself changing after a short time on earth, and is fascinated/surprised/exhilarated by it. The inference from that is that angels don't typically change, and if they don't normally change (or at least don't change so long as they're stuck in heaven or hell), then it kind of makes sense they'd still be harping on the same subjects over thousands of years...
Some great double entendres in the episode and I love you for it. Can't wait for the next one!
This show is a lot like The Mentalist, I think it's very much inspired from it, but with the supernatural aspect.
Yes, I noticed you had to cut a ton of the hilarious one liners Tom Ellis fires off. My comment about the 10 minute unwritten rule should help, and you will get into a rhythm with the edits that include the best moments as now, along with much more. It is a complex, multi threaded story line, so the fact it has gotten into some depth right away means as you discerned, "what else is gonna happen" - indeed fasten your seat belt as it's a helluva ride!
I love this show so much, and I really enjoy watching it with you - your humour and energy fits it really well. I love the characters - yesss, Linda is simply amazing, and a bit further on they will make wonderful use of the whole ensamble.
Looking forward to the conrinuation!
Lucifer IS the Devil, however, that doesn't mean he's what we think he is. His brother is Amenediel.
He draws out your inner most desire. Brings those passions that you might otherwise keep down deep to the surface.
i really hope u enjoy this series, it's definitely one for the books for me.
Another fun reaction. Your laughter is infectious and I know i am going to enjoy watching it all again through your eyes. Lucifans always find great new reactors and stick with them- we never can have enough of reliving the fun, story, character development and so many questions and answers and emotions that this Show brings. We also love seeing new reactors fall in love with the Show and become addicted to it just as we all did!
This show was based on the DC comic. The story of him leaving Hell was in Neil Gaimen's Sandman comic. Basically he was tired of the power struggle in hell and didn't want to have a war with Morphious over a soul he had imprisoned. In Sandman 2 other angels take over hell for god.
The angel's name is Amenadiel...
An easy mnemonic for him is "Amen! A Deal!"
He went full jigsaw here(around 20:00) lol
I was seeing a bit of the frustration of Cloe with Lucifer in you already :)
Yeap, so much more to come.
I just wanted to remember you that as an immortal being, a millenia, isn't longtime.
Mark pellogrino teased this show while being in supernatural
I just looooove your exasperation at Lucifer's antics.
Yepp, he can be a real pain in the a$$. But he still is charming as, well, hell.
That's why I can't imagine anyone else playing this character except Tom Ellis.
I am so delighted you’ve boarded the Lucifer rollercoaster.❤❤❤
Please more Lucifer
13:05 Trust me, it’s possible.
I have seen a grandmother, mother and daughter who all look like sisters.
You're doing an excellent job. So glad you like the show. Also your style is just awesome
Dickie from Justified showed up, sweet.
I'm loving this show and loving your reactions. Very clever premise and the writing is doing it justice (at least so far). Always makes me happy to see you laughing and enjoying yourself. Thanks for sharing this with us. 🤗
Why did you edit out lucifer yelling at maze for speaking down to him, honestly one of the best parts of the episode.
Its not actually him or even god who decides who goes to hell in this series. Here its the soul's own guilt that weighs them down and pulls them into hell. Where they will be forced to relive their worst mistakes over and over again for all eternity.
you will find out about the family issues, give it time.
Lucifer in the shows powers are he's able to make people tell him their desires/secrets ect, invulnerable against any "earthly" harm except when Chloe's around, and super strength. Comic book Lucifer is nigh omnipotent, he can do anything imaginable except create matter out of nothing (that's Michael's gift). Comic Lucifer could literally kill pretty much all comic book characters combined vs just him except a very few handful like God (The Precence/The One Above All), maybe the Beyonder ect. He could beat Super Man without lifting a finger, he could outrun the Flash ect comic book Lucifer is pretty much all powerful and all knowing. Comic book Lucifer also looks like David Bowie that's who the artist based him on, and he's very Machiavellian in his personality.
This is my favorite show ever 🎉
So many things that I want to say that would only be spoilers. I am going to REFRAIN from said spoilers and just enjoy this journey with you because this show and its characters are great. The only hint I'll give (based on things you said in the closing remarks), is, don't worry "The Detective" is more than just looks.
those questions you had at the end of these episode will eventually be answered in a later flash back episode.
Not sure if this helps, but many other reactors have issues, and it seems they found a recipe that works to avoid being blocked by the copytrolls. That is, if you only show up to 10 minutes of the actual show, and none of the music, you should be fine. Many reactors put a show timer on the screen, which I suppose helps them get the edit down to the right amount. And if there is a particularly important episode, you can split into two videos, each showing a separate 10 minutes of the target show.
Five years is an upper bound. IMO he's been on walkabout for quite a bit less time. (If time means anything to the angelic order.) So long enough to get the club established. I estimate less than two years. Maybe less than one. BTW, he lives above the club. There's this elevator, see...
the "father" is now 50 years old means he was 2016 42 years old, thats old enough to have an adult son easy
and yes the guy doesnt look like 42 xD
0:48 😺👍 Hey Anna, you live in a strong community of female reactors that have created unique ways to edit and post reaction vids.
For example, Sesskasays reverses the image so character's are transposed.
Then DakaraJayne , Shelley reacts, and Carmen Young reacts, have had to add an Overlay and/or blur certain scenes, to get the reaction uploaded. Funnylilgalreacts has uploaded the entire series of The Expanse and started out editing her own vids, but now has an editor that offered for free as a fan, to help her.
All these reactors would be more than happy to help you in any way.
Have a good weekend ✌️😊🖖
I've told her about funnylilgalreacts and I think they've spoken. 😃
It is kind of a spoiler here but you will find that the time line isn’t really accurate because angel time and mortal time doesn’t necessarily move at the same pace.
Lucifer's brother's name is Amenadeal I don't think I spelled it right though. As for why now it has been 5 years since he and Lucifer made the deal for him to stay on earth And now according to him their father wants him back in hell
Trixie is great.
We notice let me change that. I can't s[peakn for everyone. I see that you are enjoying this. I bet that everyone else is, also, so don't worry about that. This show is AWESOME. Iam very excited about the next episode. Great Post.
If you think about itlucifer runs hell . Gods prison . So he works for god as his prison warden .
Why is no one asking how she is driving legally with her arm in a sling? I know Americans drive automatics but technically you're not in control of the vehicle one handed...
I know this is a month old but in answer to your question of what his "talents" are. In the DC universe (where this takes place) he is the 2nd most powerful entity in the universe, only behind GOD himself. He has Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omnipresence, God like strength, Invulnerability, Immortality, Genius-level intellect, Regeneration, Flight via wings, Pyrokinesis, Telepathy, Telekinesis, and Mind control. in the comics he has a lot more "powers" but this show only shows some
This show brings out the Freudian slips in you or maybe just slips of the tongue. You also seem to drink Gigglewater while watching.
No spoilers - at least I honestly don't think so: Why hasn't Amenadile been asking Lucifer to go back to hell for five years? Because God didn't ask him to tell Lucifer that 'request' until now. Why are they just having the discussion about his rebelling ect... only now after millennia? Because angels probably don't like to go to Hell or want to talk to him about anything! He's been alone and ignored since being cast out of heaven. Why after millia has Lucifer suddenly decided to leave Hell and come to Earth? Well... he told us in the first episode that he 'was tired of playing a part in dear old Dad's game' or something like that ( sorry, memory isn't exact.) He's now decided to leave Hell for good ... but does that mean he has never taken a 'vacation' before? I'm surprised he's never experienced the inability to 'control' everything and know what was going to happen if he has been here before - but I suppose that could be because he's been only interested in debauchery and such, maybe? Maybe that's why God sent Amenadile? Or maybe he's just never taken a long enough 'vacation' for humans to effect him? ... Anyway just some thoughts to throw at you. I'm enjoying your reactions! Looking forward to the next. Thanks for the efforts to get them uploaded for us!
React on salaar
she has more difficulty believing he's the devil than real people apparently have believing the climate crisis is real. which is saying quite a lot. :)
Lucifer is... interesting. The "man" is honest, blunt, and completely on display. I think you'll find that Chloe is "fighting" being a female cop in a male dominated world, and her "film history" is another chip on her shoulder with that.
Also have considered the "tricks" for YT? Blur the video, distort the voiced, speed changes, etc. to see if you have an easier time posting?
Why 2 or 3 years ago and not now, in Hell works everything for thousands years the same, so it takes some time to go wrong.
one of the things that gets frustrating very fast in this show is that the show presents chloe as this smarter than the norm detective with instincts better than her peers, and then they have her ignore literally EVERYTHING she sees lucifer do. for years she spends practically every day with lucifer and she never believes him
Season 1 of Lucifer was amazing, point blank, stop.. Somewhere, somehow, it all fell apart just like Cobra Kai
Yhh I liked whole show alot but season 3 was longest and worst one it was just case solving no character or story development throughout s-03
wrong. It's great all the way. Maybe season 3 is a bit dull. Everything else is good.
It never fell apart for me, it changed like it was a character itself in the series.
Rachael Harris is great, but my most favorite character is "Ella Lopez" - she will join in Season 2. Apart from her being too skinny, I DO love her so very much
Agreed, that HotTubHighSchool-thing has to disappear. I believe it fades soon, ASAP would be great.
