It's no secret that Constantine has not been the ratings success that NBC has hoped for it. However it is receiving higher ratings than Hannibal which occupied the same timeslot Constantine currently has. Although it is still up in the air whether or not Constantine will be returning next year, David S. Goyer (Man of Steel) had a chance to discuss Constantine's chances. Here is what he had to contribute to the chances on Constantine's renewal.

“It’s not dead, at all, it’s solidly in contention for a second season of NBC, which is still supporting it. Constantine got caught in the midst of a change that is happening at the networks. It gets big numbers on DVR and online views, but it is sort of a tweener that doesn’t fit the traditional viewing box at the big networks. It’s not State Of Affairs, it’s just not that kind of show, but NBC likes it. It’s frustrating what happened because creatively we’ve really started to hit our stride and people are responding to that. If I were a betting man, I would say there’s an excellent chance for a second season.”

I hope that is true and there will be another season. I hope Deadman, Swamp Thing, Zatanna, Dr. Fate and Detective Chimp show up on the show.

@0megaDaGod

They could release Batman v Superman late 2015 if they wanted to but at he same time nothing is wrong with extra post production time. And bc of the push back theres only a 5 month different between BvS and Suicide Squad. Which I think was another motivation to why they psuhed it back.

Goyer is a putz, but he has a better idea of the state of the studio than you do. Give it a rest, Debbie Downer.

@BatmanIsBaddest Petitions are useless in entertainment terms. No studio is/should change their mind regarding any of their plans regarding properties just because a few thousand people give their emails.

This show is pretty enjoyable. It's nice not to have sit through the tween drama of other CB shows.
I hope it gets renewed.

Having said that, STFU Goyer. Stay away from comic book shows and films.

Every little bit helps, you snake. If 50,000 signatures is enough to get GTA-V banned in Australia a 100,000 should be more than enough to get "Constantine" another season. This has happened before, petitions have succeeded, you just need to shove your opinion and go piss someone else off. Help or get the hell out of the way.

@BatmanIsBaddest - 100,000 people watching a TV show won't get it renewed. Stop crying about it and being so immature.
