I am enjoying this show, mainly because of the actor Tom Ellis, as Lucifer. He plays the part perfectly and should have a bright acting future. The show has some seriously gorgeous females too!
One thing that surprises me is the way Tom Ellis's British language and slander have been included in an American show. Most unusual that, as most Brit actors have to take on the American language. Perhaps this feature is why some US experts have panned it because they don't understand a word of it!
I like the way Lucifer throws people around and wish they would include more of it. The female detective seems to be slow on the uptake, and does not see who he is. Not much of a detective, is she!
I'm not up on some of the religious details, but this is such a different experience I am enjoying it very much.
A really good cast rounds it off.

What a terrific thriller this black and white film was. An excellent cast followed the serial killer through a taut plot with many twists and turns. The plot is the thing! But I would say it could do with a remake.
Watching a black and white film does not make it less exciting than watching a colour film with wide screen. The acting by the murderer was particularly good, and the young hero, a bus conductor, came to the fore near the exciting end. I don't recall seeing the actress who played the murderer's mother before, but she was also very good.
One thing - where did they get all those hundreds of policemen from? And didn't London look very different in those days!

Most of the ghostly stories in this film are worth a watch, but the one with Michael Redgrave as the ventriloquist was a real frightener! For a film made so soon after the war, it was great fun. The director was Cavalcanti, someone to watch at the best of times.
