not horrible nor great

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

please ignore that idiotic review by Zargablarg, he's quite obviously one of the people the show mocks and is bitter. If you have a slightly twisted and irreverent sense of humor you will really adore this show. Without spoiling anything, the basic premise involves Satan (who's basically an evil moron), his daughter Lucy, (who wants to be a normal girl) and Jesus aka DJ Jesus (pronounced Hey-Zeus) who is dating Lucy. The show is funny in its own right but the deeper commentaries it makes on religion, society, true morals and values is what makes it. Sometimes it borders on retarded, but its always worth it. If you like Moral Orel on adult swim and appreciate its brilliance you should check this out...its not quite in the same league, but its fun nonetheless

Pretty much your typical Adult Swim shite-fest.Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil, is your standard pretentious foray into the post-South Park world of television, where there's no need to strain yourself by pandering to an audience that doesn't notice every episode is essentially the same bastion of sexually overtness and talent is substituted for words like THE F-WORD WHICH IMDb ALLOWS IN ITS QUOTES BUT NOT IN REVIEWS and "douche bag". Consider how hard core this show is for not only dealing with the over-saturated market of religion, but also for using the word "dildo" in an episode title. Irony is how "mature" themes don't necessarily make you a more mature person.After South Park, much of television just became the same exact thing, following up on the hells of the old-yet-inexplicably-still-around Newgrounds website, which is notorious for such heavy-handed flash games such as Pico's Sociopathic Public Shooting. This show succeeds at not standing out from any other crap you see on Adult Swim that caters to cheap unshaven beer-belly pot-reeking white trash who listen to obnoxious music and are mistaken in thinking bad taste is an art form.In its favor, this show's characters are very nearly at least one modicum above South Park in the department of sheer interchangeability for its characters. There's the idiotic red guy, and the titular, uninteresting, self-indulgent red-haired bitch, and your ninja/pirate/spy archetypes, but beyond that it's just extraneous use of your basic formula of cheap, crappy renders for the sake of lowering production costs in hopes of increasing profit margins while amusing the bottom 60th percentile. If you're a sociopath who doesn't realize that shock humor went out with the 80s and also hasn't noticed that there have been about a hundred times as many shows with Satan as a sympathetic character compared to shows about any other religion, then you're bound to be easily amused by anything with beer in it. In that case, fornicate yourself and die.Final word: Almost as crappy and pretentious as Twilight, but thankfully not as popular.

Too often are stereotypes utilized to make things easier. In this case, the stereotype would be that Satan is pure evil and thinks only of the demise of good and that Jesus is the opposite. The new Adult Swim show Lucy: Daughter of the Devil tries to destroy those stereotypes. The devil, voiced by H. Jon Benjamin of Dr. Katz and Home Movies fame, is a generally lazy demon who is willing to help destroy the world, but concerned with his own happiness. While talking to his secretary, voiced by Melissa Bardin Galsky, also from Home Movies, Satan shows off his ability to use acronyms, which he explains makes speaking more fun. Despite the fact he is the epitome of evil, Satan shows care for his daughter, half- human, half-devil Lucy, though he clearly doesn't support her lifestyle ("I paid for your stupid art school, didn't I? And I got you a dog. A hypo-allergenic dog, mind you, because you're allergic." "Excuse me, did you just say 'stupid art school?' Dad?" "No." "Yes you did!" "Art is not stupid, Lucy."). That care for his daughter, however, reaches out to her love life, much to Lucy's dismay. After commanding the dog he bought for his daughter to convince her boyfriend to commit suicide, Satan sets his daughter, the anti-Christ, up on a date with a sleazy agent of the devil, a senator, voiced by talented voice actor Sam Seder (who also played roles on Home Movies among other credentials). Lucy immediately finds the man disgusting and becomes attracted to the DJ at the club the two are at. Here's the twist...the DJ at the club is none other than the second coming of Jesus. The end of the pilot finds the Anti-Christ and Christ "getting acquainted." Writer/director/producer Loren Bouchard, also known for his time with Dr. Katz and, again, Home Movies, produces another winning script and overall show with this one, which, though billed as such, is anything but a family comedy.

I did not know what to expect from this show before I started watching it but I must say that it is an instant classic. It may not be for everyone but if you are a Williams Street productions fan, you will love it. The show starts with three priests searching for the anti-Christ. They discover that a woman would agree to bear the child of Satan in exchange for a Datsun 280ZX. The story itself is a twist on a very familiar plot line. In present day we see Lucy, Satan's daughter, who acts like a typical 21 year old woman who is trying to have a life of her own but her father is constantly getting involved. Satan is your typical dad who is consumed with his work and yet is very committed to keeping his daughter happy. Satan is the highlight of entire pilot with his love of Anagrams and Apple Martinis. When Jesus, aka C2 in the ER or S of G (Son of God) comes into the story, he and Lucy hook up and of course her father disapproves. Brilliant writing, great voice actors, and unique animation make this show a must-see. I really hope it is picked up as a series because it has so much potential. Kudos to everyone involved in making this show.
