>executive producers Sarah Schechter and Jeremy Carver reveal that they actually think of the two series as separate instead of inhabiting the same creative universe.
>"It’s so hard," Schechter says of making any crossovers happen, because while Doom Patrol films in Atlanta, "Titans shoots in Toronto." well, that's too bad, I was hoping for crossover
>"They're in the same world," he confirms, but then clarifies. "We're asking fans to come to this version of the show knowing that it is the same world, but it's a different continuity. fuck, that's disappointing.
I thought Titans was good, the Dick Grayson centered ones were always really good. The Jason Todd one was really really good.
Chase Sanders
I'm OK with this, Titans isn't that great and their Doom Patrol felt different.
That said you don't need to crossover for everything.
Cooper Fisher
That's pointlessly confusing and needlessly limits a potential crossover. You can have them exist in the same universe and not mention each other or get in each others way or even never crossover. Explicitly saying they don't is so stupid. I suppose this means Swamp Thing and Stargirl are in their own separate continuity's as well?
DC/WB really did take the wrong lessons from the failure of the DCEU.
Jordan Nelson
I only know the one is Fire, who are the others?
Julian Reyes
It's kind of a shame since it would've been nice to see bizarre Doom Patrol shit that everyone has to join together to tackle; but at the same time, I think I prefer it this way. It gives the Doom Patrol people more room to just go nuts and throw in whatever they want, and they don't have to bother dealing with whatever the Titans people feel is important.
Swamp Thing was confirmed as its own back at last San Diego Comic Con, I believe. Stargirl hasn't been explicitly confirmed as having its own continuity yet, but they said that show is meant more to be PG-13/family friendly; so I can't imagine it being mixed in with any of the other shows would work.
Top is Superboy, below that is Raven.
Eli Nguyen
Wonder what this means for Cyborg. A lot of people were expecting him to leave DP for Titans after this season. Though after his premiere episode, I don't know if I'd mind if he stayed. Seems like a nice fit for now.
Matthew Powell
>expecting him to leave DP for Titans no way, he's the only black character they have. it's 2019 ffs, don't be such a racist
>so I can't imagine it being mixed in with any of the other shows would work. Easily. Comics, specifically DC comics, have had a HUGE variety in tone, story and characters exist fine in the same continuity for decades.
James Wright
>DCcucks will defend this Truly pathetic.
Parker Richardson
>Wonder what this means for Cyborg. A lot of people were expecting him to leave DP for Titans after this season. The casting call said exactly that, he would only be in DP for one season and then Titans.
Jose Baker
I am totally fine with that. Doom Patrol would only work as its own beast. Titans are so underwhelming they'll just bog it down. A crossover with Beast Boy in 2-3 seasons would be nice though.
Bentley Rivera
>Confusing and now contradictory continuity
Just like in my comics!
Charles Anderson
How is this a bad thing? Titans is fucking shit, leave it out of Kino Patrol.
Gabriel Stewart
Cyborg puts everyone in Titans to shame since he's the only one doing actual hero shit. He should only meet them, if ever, once the Titans are fully formed.
Adrian Harris
Note they said it's the same world but not the same continuity. They'll probably end up going over but just not mention the DP stuff explicitly and just allude to it
Asher Gutierrez
Beast Boy deserved to be on the better show.
Blake Smith
Or DP tends to deal with shit that affects reality.
Leo Hill
Crossovers made me stop watching cw shows . That and shit writing. Fuck crossovers.
Evan Jones
That's just the case of TV people not knowing shit about fandoms, especially comics' continuity. We had the same shit with Netflix Punisher, where the showrunner called it a "Separate Timeline" before being asked too much questions. They don't reallly have a clue WHAT continuity is (like calling every late sequel "a reboot", see Jurassic Park), that's not what their job is.
Anyway, the second ep of Doom Patrol was full of references to Titans, including Superboy and his Dog's escape. It's the same universe, they just mean that they didn't really try to figure out timeline specifics to tie the shows together. The basis is, outside of flashbacks, Doom Patrol takes place after S1 of Titans (because Superboy and Krypto).
Lucas Diaz
This is giving me CW vibes at least from that statement but at least they realized Crossovers are actually good and try to do something cooler with each one. I'm still waiting on my Flash and Riverdale crossover.
Hudson Garcia
>well, that's too bad, I was hoping for crossover They literally crossed over in their debut on Titans.
Jordan Baker
That was VFX artists put those easter eggs in. Not Carver.
Carver said later in the interview that yeah there is technically a way you can put them together if you squint
Hudson Ramirez
>hurr durr no crossovers Until execs decide they want to crossover and suddenly there's literally nothing blocking it, certainly not two producers saying they have different "continuity"
Colton Sanchez
Doom is great Titans suck
Sadly I can't legally watch it
Brody Morgan
Plus when they appear in Titans, it seems that Danny has assimilated Doom Manor, so that would explain why they can be part of Titans but also not part of Titans.
Jason Campbell
He'd be the only character they have
Ryan Campbell
Good. I dont want them to cross over. The CW and Netflix already did that
Grayson Gomez
Doom Patrol and Hawk and Dove episodes are the only good episodes of that pandering trash heap.
