AAAAAA-YI-YI-YI-YI-YI-YI-YI-YI!!!…. In case you were wondering, that’s not my keyboard getting stuck, but rather an impersonation of the (in)famous ululating “Callisto Scream” war cry used by Lucy Lawless’ Xena during the much beloved show’s tenure during the mid-90’s to early 2000’s. Launched as a spinoff of the Kevin Sorbo starring Hercules, Xena: Warrior Princess would soon greatly eclipse that show …

The universe is a cruel, cruel place. And never is this cruelty displayed more openly than when our favourite TV shows get cancelled while Big Brother gets another season. Such was the case for Constantine, NBC’s adaptation of the fan favourite comic book that saw Matt Ryan as the titular magic man John Constantine, as he waged a war against …

Not content with cancelling my second favourite show on the network, Constantine, NBC have issued an early cancellation announcement for my favourite – Hannibal. The show recently began airing its third season and is three episodes into its thirteen episode (and now final) season, however the remaining episodes will continue to air on the network at it’s regular Thursday evening …

Only the good die young and that apparently goes double for NBC’s Constantine TV series.

Major player NBC, who wielded one of the bloodiest axes as it got rid of nine shows (including the aforementioned Constantine as well Katherine Heigl’s State of Affairs), …

This Friday past, we had what is known on the US network television calendar as “Bloody Friday”, i.e. the last day before networks finalize their new season lineup they hope to shop to advertisers. In other words, time to clean house. And unfortunately it would appear that no amount of social media prestidigitation and fervent fan hocus pocus was able …

I really enjoy Constantine, the show based on DC/Vertigo’s long-running Hellbazer comics. It helps that I am familiar with the comic books, though I have never been a serious reader. In fact, I think I only own one or two complete story arcs. But those were good and as such jack-of-all-trades sorcerer John Constantine has always been a favourite of …

Well how about this for some magic news? Constantine isn’t a perfect show, but it certainly does have plenty of charm thanks to Matt Ryan doing a fantastic job as the Hellblazer. The thing is, Constantine is struggling in the ratings department, thanks to parent network NBC shuffling it around and forcing the show to be a rather run of …
