CONSTANTINE Reportedly Canceled by NBC

With rumors of cancelation floating for a while, and much to fan's discontent, it looks as if NBC has decided to pull the plug on the (oc)cult show.

Matt Ryan's portrayal of the titular occultist has become a fan-favorite casting in recent years. However, his acting clearly hasnt helped get the ratings higher. It's no secret that after Constantine's abrupt production halt last year didn't look good for the show. With rumors of moving the show to Syfy, another network buying it, and the obvious cancelation, it looks as if it's fate has been decided. It has recently been confirmed that the show has been canceled by NBC. There is no word yet on if it will be moved to SyFy but I honestly wouldn't hold my breath.






John Constantine, a demon hunter and dabbling master of the occult, must struggle with his past sins while protecting the innocent from the converging supernatural threats that constantly break through to our world due to the "Rising Darkness". Balancing his actions upon the line of good and evil, Constantine uses his skills and a supernatural scry map to journey the nation to send these terrors back to their own world, all for the hope of redeeming his soul from eternal torment.



UPDATE:It looks as if the source might have misspoken, although at the moment, the details are still fairly shady.

Horrible show. I really like the comic, but the show was garbage. Glad it's cancelled.

I'll believe when it's confirmed. Some renewal/cancellation sheet or what have you confirms nothing.

With one rarely-watched comic book show fallen, many people (many defined here as just us) are wondering about the fate of the beleaguered Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which is listed as "awaiting news" on the Buzzfeed article. Will the show be canceled for a record seventh time, or will it survive to provide endless poor ratings jokes for another season? We'll have to wait and see, dear readers.

I truly hate NBC, all their shows are horrible and have terrible ratings compared to the other networks. NBC really should close up shop.

Die off already.

Should've aired it in the UK. Then it might've gotten somewhere further.

BTW, Constantine was the only show I watched on NBC. Their other shows like I said are garbage.
