Debuts this fall. Looks promising.



+ I enjoyed the Hellblazer comic series
+ The special effects look decent enough.
+ The actor more closely resembles the comics counterpart
+ Harold Perrineau

oh god will this be another comic book spoiler series (like the walking dead?)

5/12/2014 12:34:37 PM

To be honest, probably not. The series itself is pretty long-running with all sorts of insane arcs/crossovers/twists.

5/12/2014 12:44:20 PM

it looks on a level with Grimm

ugh.

5/12/2014 1:14:26 PM

But I want it to be good

5/12/2014 1:31:21 PM

(I like Grimm, so if it's on that level...good)

Based off of trailers I'm more excited for this than for Gotham.

5/14/2014 11:13:41 AM

Friday.
Cautiously excited.

will be checking this out

on a semi-related note, I might be in the minority here, but I really liked the movie with Keanu playing Constantine.

10/23/2014 9:14:55 AM

gonna be hard to live up to the movie, which is a highly underrated and underappreciated sci-fi action flick.

10/23/2014 10:59:05 AM

i've never really heard of the series but i might watch it to try it out.

10/23/2014 12:15:43 PM

I thought the first episode was quite good, will definitely keep watching

10/25/2014 11:07:03 AM

I liked the Constantine movie too.

Just finished episode 1. Pretty good.

Poor security guard...helps out John and is dragged down to hell with a demon.

say what?


It had good special effects tho

10/26/2014 9:47:43 PM

I enjoyed it. Wasn't stellar, but was definitely good enough for me to keep up with a few more episodes.

10/27/2014 8:04:44 AM

I like this show so far, hopefully ratings improve and it doesn't get cancelled

This was a strong film, and many people today are citing it as a good role and a very strong performance from Keanu. The strengths of the first movie, as I have stated before, are that it stayed relatively true to the source material in that it was dark and portrayed Constantine as a man driven by selfish intentions that was a hazard to anybody and everybody that he worked with. It also had great performances from Stormare (who in my opinion played the best devil in recent memory) and Swinton, as well as some really good world building around Papa Midnite (Djimon Hounsou). I think that the main reason some critics ended up hating on it had more to do with people being tired of Keanu, and the fact that he really did not make any great leaps away from the characters that he normally played. Still, the role was perfect for him and he nailed it.

agree wit all dat ^

11/8/2014 10:33:41 AM

I am still quite enjoying this show, but I cannot fucking stand Zed's weird accent

11/8/2014 11:21:25 AM

I think Ava is the second guest star from Justified in this show so far.

Solid episode, really digging this show. Hopefully NBC doesn't FOX this.

11/10/2014 7:59:48 AM

Damn he really sacrificed that dude

I thought they would figure out something else right up until the end

11/14/2014 11:01:07 PM

I like that he went through with that, truer to the character.

11/17/2014 8:29:25 AM

Back nine episodes not picked up. Season will only be thirteen episodes long. Not promising for another season.

11/26/2014 8:06:52 AM

Not a death sentence though, Hannibal is also only a 13 episode arc, and I think the ratings last week jumped up 30ish%. Still have my fingers crossed, I really like this show.

11/26/2014 8:17:27 AM

Yeah, it was a late season premier, and the ratings have been improving every week, so it still may be picked up for a second season, I hope it is

11/26/2014 9:48:24 AM

Yes plz

11/26/2014 9:55:42 AM

That sucks. Last episode was pretty good and they have been getting better. Last episode had the host for The Spectre mantle in it.

11/27/2014 4:52:50 AM

catching up on episodes

so...hunger demons...probably the best and most disturbing portrayal on the show so far (HM to the end of the episode and Gary Lester)

Been sitting on my DVR for a while and have been playing catch up. Enjoyed it so far and hope it gets renewed for another season. Kinda seems like Dr. Who with demons.

1/25/2015 9:46:19 AM

I was wondering why Chaz was always coming back to life, now I know. Cool story bro.

1/26/2015 9:07:34 AM

There is a rumor that this show may get a season 2, but on Syfy, I hope this comes true because I very much enjoy this show, and a switch to Syfy would allow for even better, more hardcore content

2/9/2015 4:32:34 PM

Have read this same thing, and would be 100% on board. Reports say they'd re-title it Hellblazer and go less procedural with the show.

2/10/2015 9:14:36 AM

Netflix should just buy this one out.

2/10/2015 9:34:07 AM

Official: NBC didn't pick this up for a season 2

I've been reading that the WB is shopping around for another carrier though, so I guess we're on life-support.

agree. this is a good show that has at least a couple more seasons left in it... someone better pick it up
