At NBC, DC Comics-based Constantine continues to enjoy strong support.

 

[Lord Valumart]

Between waiting on this and Flash I'm pretty much dying. I wish they'd just order a series already and put us all out of the horrible waiting.

An early standout, DC Comics-based Constantine has lost some steam but still is a possibility, maybe for NBC’s Friday genre block.

Don't you take this away from me, NBC!

 

[Primal Slayer]

How in the hell did it lose that much stream,

 

[Sawyer]

Well, it's not like they give a quantifiable amount of steam that it's lost, as if it was a sure thing before and is now a no-go, but I think they recently screened all the pilots. Some test audience pansies probably whined about it being too dark or bloody or something.

THR's take on it's chances...

Other dramas looking strong at NBC include Constantine, David Goyer's take on DC Comics' Hellblazer, which could bump Dracula for a slot on NBC's supernatural Friday lineup.

Test audiences are a joke. You can't represent the diversity and likes and dislikes of America with a room full of soccer moms pulled from a single city.

Series Order

DC is 4-for-4 this pilot season. Well done, indeed.

 

[TheOneWhoKnocks]

Picked up! New forum
@benfritzhttps://***********/benfritz/status/464496103568986113 And there's NBC's Constantine order. So DC is 4-for-4 with b'cast pilots getting ordered to series this season. Big deal for Warner Bros.

 

[Primal Slayer]

If I wasn't driving to work I would be gifing it up on here.

 

[chamber-music]

Old Con-Job is coming!

 

[JC00]

I hope Warner Brothers coordinated nights/times for their shows with the networks. Won't do any good if for example Gotham is running against Flash or Constantine is running against Arrow.

 

[Mad Love]

That's up to the networks.

 

[JC00]

I know it's up to the networks.

 

[Sawyer]

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm betting The Flash gets the post-Arrow slot on Wednesday and Constantine is put in the genre line-up with Grimm on Friday. Don't know about Gotham. Maybe Mondays.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I can't wait for this show yes more than Flash and slightly more than Gotham.

 

[The Englishman]

Can it get it's own sub section now please?

 

[chamber-music]

Can it get it's own sub section now please?

This

 

[Sawyer]

You guys couldn't wait 30 friggin minutes to play that card, could you?





But, yes, it would be nice...

 

[flash13]

They should team Constantine with Revolution on Mondays, only because I love that show and there's nothing on Mondays I like except Bates Motel which doesn't come back until next year.

[Lord Valumart]

Why isn't he smoking while grabbing that womans boob?

 

[Mad Love]

I don't understand why it's so important for him to smoke.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I don't understand why it's so important for him to smoke.

It's a characteristic of his.

 

[Marvolo]

I don't understand why it's so important for him to smoke.

Its his thing. He's going to hell. Smoke em if ya got em kinda thing.
