According to comicbook.com, "The announcement by the Fox Network that Lucifer wouldn't be renewed came as a shock to many, as the series has built a passionate following over the years. Almost immediately after the news broke, fans rallied on social media with the #SaveLucifer hashtag, as well as the creation of petitions to show a future network how many passionate fans would tune in." It was also frustrating for fans because the series three finale ended with a cliffhanger.
