Support NeoGAF

[lastplayed]

Me miserable! Which way shall I fly, infinite wrath and infinite despair? Which way I fly is Hell, myself am Hell and in the... ahh forget it.

 

[FartOfWar]

Only people this afraid of fiction are these folks and their counterparts on the fringe left/"gaf" left.

 

[Ogodei]

To be fair, it does sound boycott-worthy, like a cheesy 70s detective drama. What does the devil do when he gets bored? Go fight crime. Why?

Why indeed.

 

[Monocle]

oh noes, professional scolds found something to get mad about

This ought to give a nice little boost to Lucifer's ratings.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

When I played the new animal crossing I taught my villagers to say hail satan.

But I didn't get no million moms ;(

 

[weshes195]

I support them.

Spoiler

Kidding of course, it sounds like an alright show to be honest. Just a travesty of what could have been

Oh, it isn't even directly to the show... Just an ad for Olive Garden.

Man, they are so dumb that I can't even make a joke off them.

 

[Hollycat]

They have best salad.

BEST. SALAD.

Not possible, they dont use Iceberg lettuce

 

[SchrodingerC]

So is the show any good?

It's full of meh. You can probably predict what direction the show is going by seeing what they've set up in the first episode.

Not possible, they dont use Iceberg lettuce

Now Iceberg lettuce IS the devil.

 

[LosDaddie]

Outrage Culture strikes again.

I wonder if this group is registered as a non-profit

[Sesha]

The character Lucifer Morningstar makes being the devil look cool, drives a fancy car, gets out of a speeding ticket, owns a nightclub in LA, and is irresistible to women.

So a depiction of the Devil as more consistent with modern times. What, they expect their Devil to look like Tim Curry in Legend and be obviously evil like eating babies in plain sight?

 

[Ahasverus]

Is this the one based on the Sandman character?

 

[Monocle]

Is this the one based on the Sandman character?

Yes. Very, very, very loosely.

 

[kinggroin]

Why get outraged. Plenty of corporations support things we don't like all the time. If you catch it, just stop supporting said corporation if it helps you sleep better.

That said, the show's premise is juvenile and the execution doesn't even reach THAT potential. Meh.

Gay homos can marry, the president is a Black, and the Devil is openly celebrated on national TV, and you're asking why get outraged????? This once great nation is truly doomed.

 

[Marvie_3]

They should boycott Olive garden anyway, on account that its shitty food. No need to drag our Dark Lord and Master Satan into it.

This. Get better at picking your battles, christian mom group.

 

[EmiPrime]

Yep. 82k on Facebook, 3.3k on Twitter.

Hey, that's like, almost 1/10th of a million. Keep it up.

I wonder how many of those 82K likes were bought.

 

[Mumei]

Yes. Very, very, very loosely.

So loosely that we ought to pretend there's no relation, really.

 

[marzlapin]

So what's a better italian place?

Gotta say I love their ground beef soup (dunno the name) and their breadsticks are GOAT. Liked the ziti I had the other night.

Depends where you live. Usually you can get much better Italian at a local non-chain restaurant, but if you live in the middle of nowhere, Olive Garden might actually be the best you can get.

 

[Azerare]

Who goes to Olive Garden anymore?

Great place to breakup and end things with a chick.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Show is lame. Less than these moms. Almost makes me wanna watch next week.

[Theanine3D]

I didn't know about this show before this boycott news. Now I do.

Looking forward to watching it. Thanks One Million Moms for the recommendation.

 

[Mineshaft_Gap]

It's a FOX show; they couldn't just wait for natural selection?

They can't. Not whole they're also boycotting the Theory of Evolution.

 

[Stumpokapow]

one million moms is about 50 people

but olive garden is terrible and lucifer is not a good show

i hope this confrontation ends like a tarantino movie

 

[Hazmat]

To be fair, the people in One Million Moms are probably the same people that eat at Olive Garden.

 

[Violet_0]

One Million Dads masturbate to it

 

[ntropy]

i wonder how many of their children are reading Milton's classic at school lol

 

[hammysaurusrex]

Why does every organization with "million" in the name actually just end up being a bunch of out of touch white people making plans in a suburbia living room?

 

[True Underdog]

Depends where you live. Usually you can get much better Italian at a local non-chain restaurant, but if you live in the middle of nowhere, Olive Garden might actually be the best you can get.

For example, this amazing $30 meal.

 

[Kimawolf]

The comic is great. Show is average though. LOL crazy old women, protesting everything.

 

[Kieli]

Is this Neil Gaiman, Sam Keith adaptation?

 

[aliengmr]

Congrats to this group for donating their time to free advertising for the show.

I'm sure the folks making the show would have been upset if no one protested it.

 

[NinjaTehFish]

Came into this thread expecting a good laugh, Leaving sad there is no "The Devil Is A Part Timer" season 2.

:'(

 

[GK86]

But he is misunderstood. And a cool guy.

 

[Loxley]

This is the same bunch of yahoos who threatened to boycott JC Penney when they made Ellen Degerenes their spokesperson a few years back because lesbians and what about the children or something. Thankfully JC Penney isn't operated by complete idiots and didn't give a fuck.

 

[Byakuya769]

That actually sounds like the perfect depiction of Satan. Nobody said living a virtuous life was particularly easy or sexy, and nobody is as tempting as the devil.

Yep.

 

[dr3upmushroom]

It's trash sponsering trash... I see no problem.

 

[masud]

Wait it's a police procedural? Literally burst out laughing when I read that.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Show wasn't as bad as I expected.

show is great! satan is likeable

 

[LuciusAxelrod]

Why does this complaint read like a press release for the show?

 

[Monocle]

So loosely that we ought to pretend there's no relation, really.

Probably the best way to go.

 

[besada]

I'm boycotting Lucifer because it looks shitty, and Olive Garden because it is shitty.

 

[DrSlek]

I'm boycotting Lucifer because it's a shitty adaptation.

 

[Deleted member 325805]

Show looks good, their loss.

 

[pgtl_10]

Someone's never been to The Taste of Texas, located in beautiful(?) downtown Houston.

Where in Downtown Houston? Never seen it.

 

[shadowsdarknes]

I guess this show isn't politically correct.

 

[umop_3pisdn]

I bet all of the similarities to the actual mythological figure (or good taste) are incidental anyways. But maybe the name itself has some spooky black magic to it, who really knows with these sorts of christians.

 

[Aurongel]

Something tells me that quite a handful less than one million moms are upset by this.

 

[botty]

But he is misunderstood. And a cool guy.

is this how lucifer actually functions? seems off..

 

[Dennis]

"One Million Moms"

That is the name of my MILF porn script.
