Lucifer 305 + 306: "Welcome Back, Charlotte Richards" & "Vegas with Some Radish"
Manage episode 442568807 series 3490555
“Welcome Back, Charlotte Richards” and “Vegas with Some Radish” give us some interesting back story on pre-Goddess Charlotte and card-counting Ella. We also get a nice blend of physical humor and satisfying writing.
In the episode 305, We see our writers having their cake and eating it too as they critique the over-sexualization of consumer advertising while lingering lovingly on scantily-clad women (and a few men) trying to sell pudding. Tom Ellis really convinces us of Lucifer’s discomfort with Charlotte’s (Tricia Helfer) advances with a scramble up the piano’s keys, melodic tinkling and all. And Charlotte epitomizes the literary definition of cuckoo-bananapants with her attempts to restore the balance of good and bad deeds.
In 306, there is some really effective fill-in writing about Lucifer’s not-quite-ex-wife, Candy Morningstar, and a really fun musical number with Lucifer on vocals and Ella (Aimee Garcia) in a showgirl’s costume. (Lucifer’s vocals remind Tracie of Michael, the archangel twin we won’t meet until season 4). We also get a not-quite-believable private party for a few of Lucifer’s friends at the penthouse, because hey, a high quality sound system, top shelf liquor, and the best views of the city are hard to pass up.
