Lucifer
Season 3, Episode 15: "High School Poppycock"
Written by Chris Rafferty & Jen Graham Imada
"Has all that masturbation finally caught up with your eyesight, Daniel?"
"High school reunion is a very popular torture in hell. "
Three seasons in and Lucifer continues to keep me interested and amused--mostly courtesy of quips like the two above. No other comic book based show has kept my attention so effectively. In fact, quite the opposite: most of the other shows---Arrow, Flash, Gotham, Supergirl, Black Lightning, Smallville, Legends of Tomorrow, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The Gifted, iZombie . . . have either bored me silly or become so ridiculous that I can't bear to pay any attention to them at all. (Though I do miss Constantine . . . and am kind of fond of Legion, and hope that it makes its way back to the little screen.) I have enjoyed all of the NETFLIX Marvel shows . . . but even there, I have to admit that I struggled with all of them at some point.The writing is nowhere close to what you get every week on Lucifer.
So cheers to Lucifer. Long may he reign.
