Netflix Original Series Dead Boy Detectives

Apparently, this was shunted from Max to Netflix earlier this year. It's technically a spinoff of Doom Patrol, although the leads were recast. The comic it's based on is a Sandman spinoff, and Neil Gaiman has said one of the Endless (I assume Kirby Howell-Baptiste's Death, although he was vague) will show up.

Jayden Revri who plays Rowland (who was played by DL Icon Sebastian Croft on Doom Patrol) gives some baby gay vibes, and DL Icon Lukas Gage has a recurring role.

VotN, glad to see you! Hope all is well.

I never saw the Doom Patrol episode with Bash and the Tennent Targaryen twink, but heard it was pretty good and there was nice gay tension. I've enjoyed some of those Netflix occult shows like Hemlock Grove, Lockwood & Co, Locke & Key, The Bastard Son, Cabinet of Curiosities, & CAOS. I really enjoyed Sandman as well, so I'll definitely check this out when it comes out. It looks like the new actor Reveri might lay it on a little thick, but I'll save my judgements for the show. It also looks like the breathtakingly beautiful twink Charlie Besso might be in here (around 0:30), so that's certainly a reason to watch. Netflix is pissing me off with the constant price increases, but I'm a whore for shows with pretty twinks and/or occult stuff, also fresh anime like Castlevania: Nocturne. So, I guess I'll pay up.

I thought the Doom Patrol episode with this team was awesome and was pissed when I heard they recast the roles. Feels like it's been ages since that aired and now this spinoff is finally here, seemingly out of nowhere. I'll give it a shot, the two boys in the thumbnail look handsome af.

Crazy to think that Sebastian Croft maybe got too famous for this gig in just two short years, how small the world seems sometimes.

He didn't. His newest gig is a bit part in a BBC series.

Apparently I am not the target audience because it's way too dark and blurry for my 60 year old eyes.

Who is the lady with the instantly iconic delivery at 0:55?
