I don't know if any other DS fans out there are watching Constantine. The main attraction for me is Welsh actor Matt Ryan's portrayal of the title character. He's brooding, conflicted, snarky, and a bit of a mess. There was a lot of concern in fannish circles that the series was going to seriously adulterate the source material, but from what I have read, so far the story mostly follows the books.
For those who like occult horror with an edge, you might want to have a look. The scripts are uneven but Ryan is worth checking out.
Ryan, like a certain other actor we admire, is a dyed-in-the-wool Shakespearean, with roles in the Royal Shakespeare Company. As a child he appeared in a West End production of Les Miz.
