Honest to god, this show should not even make it to a full season. It's like a parody show they'd watch in iZombie or something. They're just throwing shit at the crime procedural wheel to see what's not flung back into their face.

Come now, it can't be that bad-

After his career as a magician is ruined by a scandal, Las Vegas illusionist Cameron Black becomes the world's first "consulting illusionist" as he works with the FBI to solve odd crimes.

If a show about the literal Devil becoming a detective can be entertaining, all bets are off for other procedurals.

That's at least a premise with staying power. The power of Satan is always going to be useful. How many episodes can you drag out of a magician helping with cases?

Fuck Lucifer though for real. I don't care if it outdoes Breaking Bad in quality, I will always hate it.

That only works because of the actors natural charisma and the rarity of bisexuals male leads on television

Yes but I think it's been off those rails since season 1.

Anyway, the worst procedural I've seen was that one a year ago about the guy in a wheelchair, and how he spots evidence by being closer to the ground.

Literally the only thing they pulled from the comic is that he owns a nightclub. The storyline of the comic in no way involves the devil solving crime in LA. It's instead about God giving Lucifer a blank universe to do wit as he pleases. The first arc involves the original deck of tarot cards, created by an archangel, that escape their prison and do a little mini-rampage around a German city.

Oh, a show about the Devil? Nice! Oh, it's based on one of the most critically acclaimed comics of all time? Awesome! Oh, it's yet another police procedural that shits all over the source material.
Imagine if Preacher did the same...
