Lucifer has beaten Game Of Thrones to become the most binged-watched show of May and we’re really not surprised.
The fantasy drama had already been named the most watched series on Netflix just a fortnight ago and obviously none of us can get enough, with TV Time reporting that it had a share binge of 5.89 per cent over the last week – way ahead of HBO’s Game Of Thrones which only had 2.8 per cent.
In third place was Friends at 1.95 percent, closely followed by new teenage offering The Society with 1.86 per cent.
Lucifer has one of the biggest fan bases in the world, with lovers already showing their loyalty by getting their show back on the airwaves after Fox cancelled it in 2018.
And with the recently released offering proving to be a massive success, avid audiences have naturally set their sights on a fifth series and have already launched a campaign to encourage Netflix to put another order in.
Showrunner Chris Rafferty revealed that Netflix ‘waits about a month’ to see if a particular show has done well enough to warrant a renewal and we’re all holding our breath for official confirmation (although judging by the stats we really oughtn’t be).
Tom Eillis, who plays the title character, thanked Lucifer fans for binging the fourth season on Twitter last week.
Addressing his 607.7k followers, he wrote: ‘You little bingers you… #Lucifer BINGE REPORT: “Lucifer” Gets Cozy At No. 1.’
Lucifer creators have already teased they’ve planned out an ‘awesome’ first scene of the fifth series. Joe Henderson told Entertainment Weekly: ‘We did spend some time digging into what we think can be season 5.
‘We even have the first scene [of season 5], which is one of my favorite things we’ve ever come up with.’
In the meantime, here’s seven Amazon Prime shows to binge while we wait.
Lucifer seasons 1 to 3 are available to stream on Amazon Prime and season 4 is available to stream on Netflix.
