Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Anybody else see the teaser trailer?
I may need to get DC streaming to see this.

There is one member I have questions about, but everything else looks great.

Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) That reminds me I still need to see what DC Streaming is about. Not sure I can afford more streaming at the moment, though. I hadn't heard of this one so will have to hunt down the trailer.

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments I'm torn, as I'd really like to check this out, button sure I can justify another streaming service.

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments But not sure.


Stupid autocorrect!


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) Ive run into some financial dilemmas so I'll have to pass for now. May even have to get rid of Hulu, ugh

Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) Here it is, but the series are lacking. No current shows really

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Those DC nation shorts look cool.

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Once you get past the quarter of a million Batman projects, there's lots of good old stuff, plus some really obscure treasures.

I am tempted to just get a free trial and binge watch Doom Patrol, but there's enough interesting odds and ends to maybe get me to spend money.


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) I may later when I have more time with watching stuff - right now I'm behind on anything TV, so the chances of me actually watching the stuff right now with a trial are pretty slim. I do wish them success though, and am interested in trying it out at a later date.

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Titans showed up on netflix!
If that's the plan with all the DC universe shows then I can watch Doom Patrol!


message 11: by Travis (new)

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments The Doom Patrol was released on DVD!

Soon as I catch up on the Good Place, I'm going to watch it!!!


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) You definitely seem enthusiastic :D

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Very
Doom patrol is one of my fave teams and I never thought they'd get a show.


message 14: by Travis (new)

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Finally cashed in my amazon points to buy the DVD.

Only watched the pilot, but I kinda love this.
Trying a bit too hard to be edgy, but it has the heart and the quirkiness and some really solid casting.


message 15: by Travis (new)

Travis (travishiltz) | 487 comments Couple episodes in and could do without the 'We can swear and show blood!', but everything else is solid.

Jeff | 425 comments Thats the fun of it Travis, they are really transfering from the comic series actually. They've done a comendable job. Thats what happens when the big wheels in charge let them do their thing with out beinng a back seat driver as when they do the movies.


message 17: by Jeff (new)

Jeff | 425 comments Well, just watched the first episode of season 3 which is really the last episode of season 2, just incase no one has seen it yet. Becasue of the pandemic, all shooting at the time had stopped. and now the second episode of season three is actually the first episode.

I'm loving all the comic-based weirdness, but hearing Cliff say 'fuck' really adds nothing to the story.

Jeff | 425 comments I get it but he did that in a few different forms of the comics actually so its comcs true

But, it's being done so much, it doesn't feel like his natural speech patterns. It feels like 'we can get away with it.'

While, it's not at 'fuck batman.' levels of annoying, it's a pointless distraction.
Doom Patrol is already dealing with adult issues. It doesn't need it.
