Moving from broadcast Fox to streamer Netflix, and knowing where the show was headed in terms of its conclusion allowed the makers of LUCIFER to experiment with form. This meant that in Season 5, we got “Bloody Celestial Karaoke Jam,” in which God (Dennis Haysbert) decides it would be enjoyable to have everyone express themselves in song and dance. God’s angelic sons Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and Amenadiel (DB Woodside) are the only ones who know this is happening – Lucifer is furious, especially as it makes him sing his innermost thoughts to his father. Then, in Season 6’s “Yabba Dabba […]Read On »

LUCIFER wrapped its six-season run – the first three on Fox, the last three on Netflix, where all seasons are now available – on September 10, 2021. This multi-part interview with LUCIFER co-executive producer/writer Mike Costa is extremely spoilery, but by now, we’re hoping that readers have had time to catch up with the series climax. ASSIGNMENT X last spoke with Costa in the middle of LUCIFER Season 5. The series, developed for television by Tom Kapinos, based on the DC Comics by Mike Dringenberg and Sam Kieth, based on the character created by Neil Gaiman for Vertigo (got all […]Read On »

CANDYMAN has a long history, both on and offscreen. Originally a short story by Clive Barker, “The Forbidden” was adapted into the 1992 movie CANDYMAN by writer/director Bernard Rose. Rose moved the story from Barker’s London to Chicago’s then-infamous Cabrini-Green low-income housing projects. Here, it was learned that Daniel Robitaille (played by Tony Todd), a Black man murdered in the 1800s by a white mob, had become the hook-handed spirit Candyman. Anyone who says his name five times into a mirror invokes a visitation and very bloody consequences. The original CANDYMAN film had Candyman kidnapping a Black infant, who was […]Read On »
