I know about Constantine but never followed the books with any regularity. As a 'casual' follower I really, really like this show as does my wife who's only exposure to the character is the first two episodes.

With all the great stuff happening on Arrow and The Flash, I may be the only person here who still watches Constantine. It still has a lot of problems, but every so often, an episode works out. The latest, "A Whole World Out There", was decent, primarily because annoying supporting characters Chas and Zed were nowhere to be found. A quick explanation of this at the beginning of the episode made me smile. Keep up the good work, writers! Matt Ryan can fly solo on this show.

I enjoy the series as well. Hate the supporting characters but love the production design and lead. I don't see this getting renewed however. Ratings just aren't good enough.

Constantine is second only to the Flash for me in regards to comic shows. I am saddened that we will be seeing the last of it thanks to NBC's mismanagement of the air times and launch dates.

Okay, this was another good episode - what's more, Chas and Zed weren't annoying. In fact, they filled some essential roles, and Zed's part was fairly well-written. I liked how John's "mystic con-man" side was emphasized with his duping of Manny (and Manny's reaction at being human was also handled well).
The only negative: I would have liked an Eclipso that was more comic-accurate.

I loved it as well. As far as is what I gathered.

Read this earlier today. Hopefully a single cameo isn't all we get. Shame the series didn't get picked up by another network but in hindsight they have no one to blame but themselves opting for a more procedural format than a serialized one.
