Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil was an animated comedy show on Adult Swim. Lucy, who is indeed the daughter of the Devil, is somewhat torn between helping her father with spreading evil across the world and living a healthy normal college life. She hangs out with an indie DJ who just so happens to be the second coming of Jesus Christ. Ironically, most of the time, she gets "JC" to help her dad out without meaning to. Meanwhile, they are all pursued by a Church Militant faction of priests and nuns.

There has only been one season of 11 episodes. Series creator Loren Bouchard acknowledged in August 2009 that Adult Swim has not renewed the show and that it is "dead".


Tropes used in Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil include:
  • Affably Evil: Satan. He's the devil, but he's just so low key about it.
  • All CGI Cartoon
  • Angry Eyebrows: Sister Mary.
  • Anti-Anti-Christ: Lucy seems very unwilling to be actively evil.
  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Satan is...well, Satan, he's raised the Anti Christ, he wants to kill DJ Jésus...but the most evil thing he does in the series is buy a crappy franchise resturant chain.
    • Actually he's shown to orchestrate several mass murders and lesser assassinations over the course of the series... but yeah the restaurant was pretty bad.
  • Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: In the last episode, Senator Whitehead turns into one of these.
  • Beard of Evil: Satan has a full-on "Mirror Spock" one of these.
  • Berserk Button: Don't blow a raspberry around Satan. It really pisses him off.
  • Big Ol' Eyebrows: Father Giuseppe, to the extent that you hardly ever see his eyes.
  • Bland-Name Product: Satan's resturant franchise "Tequila Sally's" is pretty obviously based on "Chili's".
  • The Blind Leading the Blind: The Special Clergy are on a mission to find and kill the AntiChrist, but apparently neither they nor their bosses at the Vatican have any idea what Lucy actually looks like, as she ends up being their waitress several times.
    • Subverted in one episode. Sister Mary does know and does attempt to kill Lucy. She fails.
  • Broken Record: The Pope's less-than-competent beatboxing attempt.

Sister Mary: You can't just keep saying "beatbox"! Pass the mic!
