Lucifer se transmite los lunes en Fox, con su final de serie fijado para el 14 de mayo. La serie sin embargo se debería esforzar por encontrar otra cadena si bien el showrunner de la serie, Joe Henderson ha declarado en Twitter ahora que están cancelados el final de la tercera temporada va a «decepcionar a los fans» ya que no se diseñó como un final de serie. De hecho se creó un final que «obligara» a la renovación.
Los fans ya se han puesto en marcha para salvar la serie, y de hecho tras anunciarse la cancelación fue trending topic #SaveLucifer con la esperanza de que su productora Warner Bros TV busque una nueva casa para la serie.
Además de Ellis y Henderson, gran parte del elenco también ha comentado la cancelación en redes sociales con mensajes como estos que a continuación os dejamos:

So… yeah. #Lucifer has been cancelled. And it fucking HURTS. I loved this show so damn much and everyone put their heart and soul into it. Heartbreaking doesn't begin to describe.

For people asking what to do… MAKE NOISE. I have no idea if we have a shot of coming back, but I know sure as anything that everyone wants to. We have so many more stories to tell. #Lucifer

We created a season finale with a huge cliffhanger so that there was no way Fox could cancel us. Instead, we're going to frustrate the hell out of you fans. I'm so sorry for that. #Lucifer

I love you for MAKING NOISE!!! Let’s all hashtag the same thing: #LUCIFER and #SAVELUCIFER

By the way, the #Lucifer finale is the best hour of television I've been lucky to write. It wraps up everything from the season. But what it teases for season 4… well, maybe, just maybe, we can #SaveLucifer and show you.

I’m heartbroken, shocked and devastated over the news that our beloved show has been cancelled. All I can say is we love YOU for watching, supporting and loving #Lucifer for these past few seasons. Funny that a show about the devil has been nothing short of heaven. ❤️😈😢
