    NBC Constantine is....

    This from comicvine, NBC Constantine is dead. They are NOT going to pick it up. There is a slim chance that another network could pick it up but for now it is dead.


    Then again maby its not:

    Comicbook.com got word from showrunner Daniel Cerone about the future of the show.

    I just received confirmation from the corporate offices at NBC. I was assured that Constantine has not been canceled and our pitch meeting to discuss a potential second season remains on the books. By the way, this is a pitch meeting involving the president of Warner Bros and and the entertainment heads of NBC. Nobody at this incredibly busy time of the development season has time to waste taking pointless meetings.

    Now, is it fair to say that Constantine is a long shot? Sure, that's fair to say. While we marginally improved a tough time slot for NBC, we're a very expensive show to produce. A lot of NBC's decision making will not doubt hinge on their new pilots and how they feel those new shows would fare as a companion piece to Grimm, versus a second season of Constantine.

    I never watched it but from what I heard I am not surprised. was not doing well in the ratings. really there was too much comic book TV competition. I expect Izombie will so be dead too(see what I did there)

      Hope it goes to Netflix. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt was an NBC show that they passed on and Netflix picked up.

        Constantine on NETFLIX would be amazing! They'd be able to stay much more true to the character and his world in a format unrestrained by network censors.

          If the series does get canceled and if the Del Toro project ever gets made, I hope the lead from the series gets cast. he really did a nice job in the part.

            What they should do is move it over to Syfy.

              one would think they could get a much needed boost with a guest spot on Flash or Arrow

                  Oh man, I really liked this show, I thought they did the source material justice for the most part. If Netflix or Yahoo or someone picked this up, I would be very happy.

                      I hope the show continues somewhere for I was really enjoying it.

                          I hope if it comes back...they don't give it the Friday "death slot" again. That is where shows go to die.

                            And it is official that Constantine is dead at NBC now it is being shopped around. On a side note Stephen Amell (Arrow) made this comment
                            "Hey TV Networks / Netflix and the like... If you pick up the show, I'll guest star."

                              That goes WAY back. It was the final nail in Star Trek's coffin.
