Lucifer season six to have fewer episodes than expected?

According to a recent report by TVLine, Lucifer final season is expected to have 10 episodes. It was earlier said that it could have only eight episodes, which would have made it the shortest season. Now an updated report states that Lucifer season six will run a total of ten episodes. It would make it on par with season four which also has the same number of episodes.

Fans were expecting Lucifer final season to have more number of episodes, considering that it even had 26 episodes in season three. The recently released first part of season five has eight episodes, with the same number coming in part two, which makes altogether 16 episodes for season five. It was speculated that the sixth season could include 16 or more episodes, but the recent report has saddened many fans.

If the news turns out to be true, then Lucifer will end with 93 episodes, missing the 100 episodes mark by just seven episodes. However, it is still said to be an exceptional run considering that the show was cancelled after its third season at Fox and was then revived by Netflix. The streaming platform has not confirmed the news yet.
