Fox has given an early Season 3 renewal to "Lucifer" ahead of the TV drama’s second-season return from hiatus on May 1. The order is for a full-season 22 episodes.
A low-key midseason entry last season, "Lucifer" exceeded expectations, earning a second-season renewal in May and then a Season 2 back order in October. It is running head-to-head in the ratings with the higher-profile, bigger-budget lead-in "Gotham", both averaging a 1.1 adults 18-49 rating in Live+Same Day and and 1.9 in L+7.
“Lucifer is one of those rare shows that starts strong out of the gate and just keeps getting better and better,” said Fox entertainment president David Madden. “Tom, Lauren and the entire cast have really made these characters three-dimensional, and the production team – Jerry, Len, Jonathan, Joe and Ildy – is one of the best in the business.”
