The only other announced DC show Berlanti has on his slate at present is “Dead Boy Detectives” at HBO Max, which is currently in production.

That feels the definition of a one and done series for HBO Max.

Oh you mean the show that had a backdoor pilot in Doom Patrol, and then they recast the leads?

Kind of ironic since Doom Patrol had a backdoor pilot in Titans and Chief got recast.

Recasting the detectives is a stupid move though. I’m not that excited for the show but those actors were fun in Doom Patrol.

Thank fuck, you just reminded me what show I kept confusing with Lockwood & Co. I'm not gonna watch either of them but it was driving me nuts.

Viewership ratings in today on Netflix pretty much confirm Lockwood & Co is DOA and 100% cancelled. I expect the same performance from Dead Boy Detectives for sure.

I don't know why Netflix just drops all these shows with little fanfare. Lockwood & Co was pretty good.
