According to TVLine , Netflix is considering resurrecting the supernatural drama for a sixth season despite it being previously announced that the devil's reign would be coming to an end after Season 5. The fifth season of Lucifer was originally set to be a 10-episode run , but Netflix significantly expanded the episode count while the show was still in production, ordering six additional episodes to take the grand total up to 16 episodes, which are set to be split across two parts on the streamer This expansion of episodes served as a potential indication that the writers required a little more scope to tell the story and wrap up all of the loose threads from the fourth season of the series, loosely based on Neil Gaiman's depiction of the Devil from the Sandman comic book and its spinoff Lucifer.However, it now seems that Netflix might be swooping in to save the fallen angel with a Season 6 renewal, offering the team the opportunity to expand the story even further. This is great news for Lucifans who have been campaigning for the show's continuation ever since it was cancelled by Fox after just three seasons on the air In our review of Lucifer Season 4 , we called it "Great" saying "Netflix's Lucifer has a shorter season and a tighter arc, but the campy show retains the humor and naughtiness we love."
