First Impressions - Constantine: 'Rage of Caliban'

This is by no means a deeply intense dissection of the episode.
It's just my quick comments and notes after seeing the episode only once (a la AoS).
Spoilers after the jump.
You've been warned...


Episode 6: 'Rage of Caliban'
The Good: I heard that NBC hasn't officially cancelled this series. It's nice to see a "regular" network not only roll the dice on a show like this, but commit to it.
* I don't know the name of the song that was playing during the opening credits, but it was very cool!

The Bad: I heard that NBC chose not to order additional episodes for this season. That sucks.
* Zed's away at an "art class"? For several days? Really?
* Sniff testing the wall? Fine. Lick testing the wall? Ugh.
* What the hell is wrong with turning the lights on when exploring a spooky room? To add tension? Isn't it just as tense to explore a room with blood on the walls and messages and stuff without tripping over broken glass and other s#!t on the floor you can't see...because the lights are off? Better yet - wait until daytime!

The WTF?: Is poor Chaz still stuck between the cars? That would have been a funny cutaway after John lit his cigarette.

Adorkification Moment:
I thought Max Charles was Harley from Iron Man 3, but nope...
...he was just Young Peter Parker in both Amazing Spider-Man films.
Niall Matter looked familiar too.
Eureka!
