10 good Netflix shows to watch if you like Lucifer
By Bryce Olin
Netflix shows like Lucifer: 5. Arrow
Arrow is the superhero show that basically changed the game and proved these shows could work on TV with 22-episode seasons. The hit series premiered on The CW in 2012 and ran for eight seasons. The final season was just added to Netflix this year!
In the series, Stephen Amell stars as Oliver Queen, a playboy who is believed to be dead when his boat sinks. Oliver turns up on an island where he becomes skilled with a bow-and-arrow, among other things. He returns to Star City as a vigilante.
Arrow and Lucifer exist within the same universe. Lucifer also makes an appearance in the hit crossover event, Crisis on Infinite Earths. We don’t know how it all came to be, but it was great to see Mr. Morningstar in the crossover!
Netflix shows like Lucifer: 6. The Flash
The Flash also exists in the same universe as Arrow and Lucifer, although Arrow and The Flash take place on the same Earth, as well.
The series premiered on The CW in 2014, and it’s now the longest-running superhero series on TV after Arrow came to an end earlier this year.
In The Flash, Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) is struck by “lightning” and gets superspeed. With the help of the STAR Lab team and the Central City PD, Barry tries to round up all the metahumans in the city.
Like Lucifer, The Flash often focuses on one or two cases or villains every week as part of a larger story. If you like those episodic shows, you should check out Arrow and The Flash after watching Lucifer.
There are six seasons of The Flash on Netflix right now. The Flash season 7 is coming to Netflix late next year.
