Just in time for Halloween, Lucifer has secured a back-nine order from Fox. The back-nine will bring its episode count to 22 episodes for season 2.
The Monday drama has been a modest performer in live ratings but draws a respectable crowd with double-digit gains in Nielsen’s L3 and L7 delayed-viewing stats. To date, the show is averaging a 2.0 demo rating in adults 18-49 and about 6.6 million viewers in L7. Fox said the show is up to 8 million viewers for the season to date on average when all multiplatform viewing is factored in.
The DC Comics-inspired drama stars Tom Ellis as the title character who decides to move to Los Angeles and team with a female cop (played by Lauren German) to take down criminals.
