When the fantasy series Lucifer premiered in 2016, several Christian groups called for it to be cancelled or boycotted, outraged that the devil himself was the protagonist - and that he was portrayed handsome, charming and not exactly evil.

Based on a DC Comics character created by Neil Gaiman for The Sandman graphic novels, the story revolves around the angel known as Lucifer Morningstar - played by Tom Ellis - who is so bored of ruling Hell that he packs up and moves to Los Angeles to run a nightclub.
