Alicia I love this movie so much

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

zetes I was working a lot last week, so I was too tired to get to any movies (everything I watched I watched over the weekend). I filled the time with a couple of Adult Swim series, which typically have an 11.5 minute runtime and are therefore easily digestible. In particular, I had recently downloaded two long-since canceled series that I had missed back in the day but had always wanted to catch up with. Lucy: The Daughter of the Devil was created by Loren Bouchard, who was responsible for one of Adult Swim's most popular shows, Home Movies, as well as the recent Fox animated series Bob's Burgers (both of which are available on Netflix Instant). Lucy has much the same M.O.: very lousy animation (think alternative comic strips) backed by a very conversational style of voice acting. Basically, it's a show about people sitting around and chatting it up. This one has a slightly different angle, though, in that it ostensibly has a plot: Lucy is the Antichrist, the 21 year-old daughter of Satan (voiced by Bouchard regular H. Jon Bejamin, who has since gained great fame for voicing the protagonist of the F/X series Archer). Satan wants to dispose of the Second Coming, Jesus (pronounced in the Mexican way), a hipster DJ and David Blaine-like magician. Unfortunately, Lucy, who is dating Jesus, keeps getting in the way. There are also three emissaries from the Vatican who are hunting the Antichrist and trying to find the Second Coming. But, like all of Bouchard's shows, the characters mostly just sit around and talk. This show is VERY funny, maybe even my favorite thing Bouchard has created. The second episode was my favorite, where Satan is trying to encourage women to masturbate (which will destroy society) by opening his new dildo factory. I do believe all 11 episodes are on Youtube. It's well worth 100 minutes of your time.

snafux7 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

go49_20 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.

trogdor2638 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.
