Even the actors are all "Guys, we have no idea."
I completely misread that.... I had woken up 15 minutes earlier and had only just started my coffee....
I deeply apologise and that's absolutely my fault.
"Titans" and "Doom Patrol" are both cancelled. Not surprising but I'd hoped that Brendan Fraser's resurgence might have bought it one more season.

I'm surprised they both lasted as long as they did. As much as I liked Doom Patrol, it is a niche audience show--and Titans, while fun to watch, was always uneven and never really showed the full potential of its characters.
Totally saw that coming, hopefully HBO actually shows the back half of the remaining seasons.
Doom Patrol's first two seasons were amazing, inspired lunacy, though I felt season 3 lost a step and didn't quite come together. Titans was always flawed but had its moments, yet I thought season 3 was terrible and stupidly written. (It wasn't even really a Titans show anymore, just another of the slew of Batman-without-Batman shows.) I haven't seen season 4 of either yet.
I never understood why Titans insisted on being so dark and gritty and violent. I mean, the classic Teen Titans comics weren't like that; while they were noted for the maturity and seriousness they brought to the DC Universe, they had their share of fun and positivity. And a lot of people today surely grew up watching the original Cartoon Network Teen Titans series, which was generally quite zany and goofy, leavened with moments of surprising drama and depth. So I don't get why this show had to be so self-consciously dark and grim. It's quite a mismatch.
Doom Patrol has seemed rather rudderless for the last two seasons.
New SHAZAM! 2 trailer:
And if you don't care because apparently that universe is ending, may I remind you that Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu are in this.

I don't really like the "Team Shazam" idea but it has me interested and I didn't really care for the first one.
Powers and gods and wars always has a certain appeal to me.
I knew this was likely, but I'm still disappointed. Thankfully, another article today said they both did series finale last episodes.
Looks good but not all that interesting. I miss the lighter tone of the first film. This feels closer to Black Adam.
Anyway, will probably see it opening night.
It's been a thing since the 40's, so seeing it on the big screen like that was a hoot.
I'm excited for the movie!
Not a surprise at all for a number of reasons, but at the end of it all, the shows are not part of the coming DC media universe, so its bye-bye time.
Except they can't actually use the team members' names since they don't use the "Marvel" names anymore.
Yeah, I get it, but it still does sound weird to me to not call them The Marvel Family.
Yes, that's my point. I'm agreeing with you -- it's awkward that they've got this whole team of superheroes who have no superhero names.
