The Premise
The story follows Lucifer, the devil, or the gatekeeper of hell. Now bored and tired of punishing bad people who are sent to hell for their wrong doings. Lucifer ditches the throne to hell and decides to move to Los Angeles. Where he opens up a nightclub (Yes, this is the actual story, I can’t get my head around this too.) In Los Angeles, he mistakenly gets involved in a murder case and using his devilish powers. He helps the detective Chloe Decker even go as far as solving the case. Impressed by Lucifer’s work, he gets asked to work as a consultant for the LAPD. Where he helps them solve mysterious and dangerous cases.
The whole show is about Lucifer’s coming of age as he gets more and more humanized and less devilish after spending time on earth with humans. The show is filled with criminal threats and some otherworldly paranormal threats from hell, who come to attack Los Angeles and Lucifer himself.
The Back Story
The show initially premiered on the Fox channel, where Lucifer found its home. Based on DC Comics of the same name, the first season of Lucifer did okay in the ratings and had mixed critical reviews. However, the show got much better in the 2nd season. But it abruptly canceled after concluding the 3rd season by Fox. This is when Netflix came in and decided to cash in, making Lucifer one of their originally produced shows. On Netflix, the show became a monster hit.
On Fox, the viewers were limited to a certain part of the world. But it receive worldwide praise on Netflix, and the rating shows that it’s a monster hit. With Netflix chiming in, the creators were able to have much more freedom and resent the more graphic scenes with ease.

Trailer Breakdown
So let’s recap what happened at the end of part 1 of the 5th season; we saw a magnificent and epic showdown between Lucifer and Maze and Amenedial clashing with Lucifer’s twin brother, Michael.
