Lucifer - an addictive sweet devil

It’s time to try human life! The Devil is tired of Hell and decides to take a vacation on Earth - more precisely in LA. Five years later, he owns a nightclub and lives intensely all things this world can give to him, with the demon Maze by his side.

Lucifer tries to balance his human adventure with his crazy divine family. Delicious!

Humorous devil

The show is not a comedy, per se, but it is so fun. Lucifer has a great sense of humor, and although I’m not religious, I would imagine the real Lucifer precisely like this. Dark humor and rushes of a bad mood when things don’t go up to his way.

I love how he is so truthful all the time. He always tells the truth. It’s not his fault no one believes him, is it?

I also love the way he describes humans; it is fantastic. Especially the “tiny ones”. Who could resist him throwing a piece of food at Chloe’s daughter as if she was a dog?

He is so… human

Despite all that, his feelings are very human, and sometimes you can relate to them. The King of Hell is the most human possible, and sometimes you may even pity him.

He uses Earth as his giant playground helping with injustices while tries to find a way to deal with his divinely messed up family.

He felts wronged by everyone, lonely… They failed him. Such a human feeling for a (fallen) Angel, isn’t it?

In fact, no matter how many people he gets around him, he is, indeed, alone. No one understands him. No one believes him. When he shows himself to the therapist, proving that he really is the devil, it is such a touching scene.

I just finished season 2, so I’m way behind, but it seems to me that at each season, he will deal with one family member. Amenadiel was easy compared to his mother. The great Goddess was such a b***h! Yet, you can’t help yourself but laughing while she tries to figure out how to live amongst humans.

Religion and humor CAN mix

It had been a while since I got interested in a story to the point of binge-watching a show, but Lucifer was able to do that.

God, devil, demons, angels, it’s all part of the western cultural imaginary. It was all shown with the right dose of humor and suspense.

At the end of the day, Lucifer is about a lovely yet naughty guy who only searches for some love and understanding. Curious, isn’t it?

Can Monsters Love?Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story

Netflix's Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story is not just a true crime documentary — it’s a psychological deep dive into one of the most disturbing couples in British criminal history . While the crimes are shocking, the nature of Fred and Rose’s relationship truly unsettles. Were they in love? Or was their bond something far darker? A Match Made in Hell From the moment Fred and Rose met, something clicked. But it wasn’t a love story — it was a dangerous connection built on control, abuse, and mutual cruelty. The documentary shows us how they fed off each other’s darkest urges. It wasn’t about love in the traditional sense. It was about power, domination, and shared depravity. Can Psychopaths Feel Love? This is the big question. Can two people with such extreme psychological disorders really feel love? Some experts believe psychopaths can feel attachment, but not empathy — they might need someone, but not care for them in the way most of us understand....

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...

Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story - review

While I found the pacing of Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story slow and, at times, even boring, the show shines in one particular area: its psychological depth. What kept me engaged wasn’t the storytelling rhythm, but the way it explored two very distinct and haunting personalities under the same roof. Two Sides of the Same Violence The series captures the sharp contrast between Lyle and Erik brilliantly. On one side, we see the volatile, angry, and violent brother—unpredictable but outwardly dominant, always ready to explode. On the other side, there is the insecure, fragile “mouse” of the family—timid, hesitant, almost paralyzed by fear. Yet, what makes Erik compelling is that under the right conditions, even he can lash out violently, especially when pulled into the orbit of his more aggressive brother. The dynamic between them feels like a nightmare recipe: one commanding, the other submissive, but both carrying destructive potential. The Many Shape...
