Show kind of rewritten for Constantine. Yay or nay?
This was a science fiction time travel show, with a good dose of comedy and adventure. Lots of fun. But basically in the scifi wheel house. Along comes Constantine. A great character played by a great actor from a short lived show on the wrong network. And they bring him on board with a supernatural story. Lots of fun. But he's great so we keep him around. And now the show has kind of been overhauled into a bizarre Buffy stole a Tardis formula. Cause we need to generate story plots to justify him being here. Other characters on the show are either written off, or reduced entirely to comedic side material because there's simply nothing for them to do. So what do we think, Legends fans? Is this a change for the better? Or simply something we must endure? Or has the show just gone and jumped the shark on ya? My two cents: Constantine's been great, but he's outworn his welcome. The show needs to scuttle the supernatural and get back to the nuts and bolts of its original formula. Or, my preference: I'd cancel this show, and just give Constantine and Sara a new teamup show. Double down on the Buffy formula. Nobody else is using it. And that Supernatural show is finally ending. Needs a replacement.
