Episode 427 Lucifer S01E01 Pilot

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the fantasy series Lucifer, and our listener feedback. 

This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the pilot episode of the Fox/Netflix fantasy series Lucifer starring Tom Ellis and Lauren German. Wayne points out the narrative and thematic similarities between Lucifer and John Milton’s Paradise Lost, and we discuss the balance of witty one-liners with meaningful existential angst experienced by the Devil. 

In our What We're Watching segment, Dave continues exploring Prime Video with the comedy/drama The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel while Wayne backs off his earlier comments regarding the DC universe as compared to Marvel.

In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands makes a connection between certain elements found in Lucifer and in the Nathan Fillion led procedural Castle.
