This post gives away details about the third season of Doom Patrol. Stop reading and start watching if you’re not up to date! Come back to find out all we know about season 4 of Doom Patrol.
The last season of Doom Patrol was really good, right? Our not-so-heroic heroes fought off the Candlemaker (voiced by Lex Lang), mourned the death of their Chief (Timothy Dalton), died by the second episode, turned into zombies, turned into zombies again, and fought off were-butts (yes, lycanthrope rear ends)—all before the mid-season break!
Fans and TV critics agree that Doom Patrol is the weirdest DC Comics-based show (tied with DC’s Legends of Tomorrow). The show gets high ratings and praise from both fans and critics. So much so that HBO Max ordered a fourth season of the show soon after the third season started airing in September 2021.
The show takes place after the events of Titans, which is currently streaming on HBO Max and has a spin-off called The Dead Boy Detectives in the works.

What is Doom Patrol?
The show is about a group of unlikely heroes who became “superheroes” because of terrible things that happened to them. People turned away from them because of this. Each hero’s new form has its own problems and side effects, which are all taken care of by Niles Caulder (Timothy Dalton), also known as “The Chief.” While they are in his care, they stay in his mansion.
Showrunner Jeremy Carver told Entertainment Weekly, “When I pitched my idea, I was adamant that this was a show about the characters first.” “These weren’t your typical superheroes—they didn’t even think of themselves as a team or as superheroes.
This was about people who had been emotionally and physically hurt a lot and found themselves back in a world that had rejected them for a long time. They were just as surprised by the crazy things that happened as we were.
