NOTE: Constantine: City of Demons was a very complicated release, see more here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constantine:_City_of_Demons

Matt Ryan's Constantine wasn't completely done after the single season cancellation of the TV show (by NBC). With the character regularly featuring across The Arrowverse, in Constantine: City of Demons, and in several of DC's animated shows.

Fans didn't get more dedicated Constantine in live-action, but perhaps in the end, they got even more..

Quote: “Sad news. Thank you #Hellblazers for your support.

You truly are the best.

And thank you to everyone involved in the show.

Memories made forever.

Very disappointed that we are not continuing this journey - will miss playing John.

You guys never gave up. I thank you all #Constantine.”

End Quote. (Constantine Star Matt Ryan in May 2015).

Why did Syfy's Krypton not get renewed for a Season 3? And did the creative choices made throughout Season 2 lead in any way to the cancellation of the show?

This is an audio essay written and read by Josh Liston from On The Bubble podcast, and is just his personal opinion on Krypton, as a fan that enjoyed the show, but felt like it could have, and should have, been great.

In 2015, ABC cancelled the supernatural crime-drama, Forever, but not before scheduling the show into oblivion.

The network showed little support for the show from the very start, placing the Ioan Gruffudd led drama into a Tuesday at 10pm time slot, a historically tough time slot for ABC at the time. They then went on to start airing the back half of the first (and only) season on a very erratic schedule, never airing more than two episodes consecutively. All this, plus a genuine lack of purposeful marketing support, meant that ABC had doomed their own program to failure, and proved they only saw Forever as schedule filler, an absolute shame given its quality and scope.

Note: the show's low initial broadcast ratings were somewhat overcome by strong delayed viewership numbers, but that delayed-viewing-performance was also ignored by the network.

In 2023, Amazon MGM Studio saved the much-loved Soap Opera Neighbours from cancellation, and fans in Australia, New Zealand and the UK rejoiced. Then in 2025, Amazon cancelled the show, most likely for 'good'.
