Lucifer has proven to be unstoppable as the show has shattered the top 10 record for the most number of consecutive weeks in the number one spot.

That’s eight weeks – count them, eight – in a row for those counting.

That’s a huge achievement when you realize it takes the record away from Game of Thrones (which has now fallen out of the Top Ten).

Here is the complete list from the TV Time Binge Report:

 

 

Lucifer remains ahead of Dark and Friends, which is number three on the list.

Netflix paid around $100 million for the rights to continue streaming the show until the end of the year.

However, NBCUniversal announced last week it is spending $100 million to steal away The Office from Netflix beginning in 2021.

The closest Lucifer came to losing the top spot was the week of May 20 – May 26, when it was not even 2% above GOT.

Considering the GOT series finale aired on May 19, Lucifans should be thrilled about keeping an edge over arguably the biggest show in TV history.

Netflix does not release official viewership numbers and ratings for its shows.

Reports by TV Time haven’t been confirmed by the streaming giant, and Netflix undoubtedly has its own numbers.

Experts agree, however, that they probably look similar to what we’re seeing on the Binge Report.

Lucifer season five production has officially kicked off and the team of writers are busy brainstorming about how to bring the series to an end.

Lucifer himself, Tom Ellis, marked the occasion by posting an photo of the writers’ room to his Instagram.

Standing next to co-showrunners Ildy Modrovich and Joe Henderson as well as a host of writers, Ellis wrote:

 

 

There are many “possibilities” to explore, with plenty of pressure on how to tightly and neatly bring the series to an end.

As Lucifer wraps up, there is a new question on whether fans will see him once again in a newly announced show.

Earlier this week it was announced Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman is being adapted from the graphic novel of the same name.

Fans of Gaiman, of the dark fantasy genre, will know that The Sandman novel featured the first appearance of the Lucifer character.

Lucifer acted as a huge side-character for The Sandman, as he fought to regain his kingdom.

After the events of The Sandman’s graphic novel, Lucifer escaped to Los Angeles to open his own piano bar – LUX.

Sound familiar?

Throughout The Sandman story, Lucifer had some standout moments, and even clashed with the titular character once or twice.

This provokes the question, however: Will Lucifer appear in The Sandman series?

And if so, will Ellis play the role, or will someone else be cast?
