WATCH-ALONG! Doom Patrol S2, E1-E3 Watch-Along! THURSDAY, JUNE 25th @5PM PST/8PM EST

That moment we’ve all been waiting for is FINALLY HERE!!! Doom Patrol Season 2 is upon us! :partying_face::partying_face::partying_face:

Let’s do a little recap of the Season 1 Finale to make sure we’re all up-to-date, shall we?

Let’s see - our rag-tag group of superheroes gathered together once more to help out The Chief with rescuing his daughter, even though none of them wanted anything to do with him after the startling revelation from Mr. Nobody that The Chief was the man responsible for what all of them had become.

Together they entered into the painting that Danny the Street had become to search for Dorothy while taking on the towering Ezekial and Admiral Whiskers.

Surprisingly, with the help of Mr. Nobody, the gang rescued Dorothy, got swallowed by a giant cockroach, and escaped the painting/Danny the Street before the nuclear explosion caused by Negative Man.

Of course, now Danny the Street has been reduced to a brick, Mr. Nobody & Beard Hunter are trapped in a canvas, and everyone, except for Larry, is the size of a small action figure.

Whew! That about covers it! The only question now is - what happens next?

Gotta watch to find out!

Please read on below to prepare yourself for how this works:

Who: You, silly!

What: Doom Patrol Season 2, Episode 1-3

Where: Right here on the forums! In this thread! In the comments below! Maybe on your phone! But also, you’ll be watching Doom Patrol on a big screen. So there, too.

Episode 1: 5p PST/ 8p EST

Episode 2: 6:05p PST/ 9:05p EST

Episode 3: 7:10p PST/ 10:10p EST

How: Great question- read below!

  1. CAN’T WIN IF YOU DON’T PLAY – You must have a subscription to DC Universe to access Doom Patrol.

  2. DUAL-WIELDING – Watch-Alongs are best experienced on two devices; Your phone for comments, and your big screen for viewing.

  3. 2, 1 LET’S JAM – Have your clicking finger on the “play” button and ready for action- we’ll be starting at the stroke of the hour.

  4. A WRINKLE IN TIME – If you get lost in the time, you can calculate where the audience is by checking the minute- For example, if it’s 6:15 pm PST, then we are 15 minutes into the show. Or, just check with us in the comments and we’ll happily let you know what we’re watching.

We’re so excited to hang out in the proverbial living room with you all and watch the events of these character-studded shows unfold!

It’s been a while since I’ve joined a watch-along. I think maybe the last one I was a part of was for Swamp Thing. I don’t think there’s a more appropriate time to join back in on the action than for :donkey_dp: Doom Patrol Season 2 :donkey_dp: :smiley:

OOOOOOhhhhhh! I will be there will bells on!

I subbed in the first place for the animation (which has not disappointed me once), and DOOM PATROL wasn’t even anything I had known about before I subbed. It was a great surprise when it debuted, and I’m rewatching the first divine season to prepare for more serious weirdness.

Hey, all —

For those with HBO Max and DC Universe subscriptions, what time do the episodes drop on each platform? Is it midnight PDT on HBO Max and (like season 1) 6am PDT on DCU?

Ah, Thursday. FINALLY!!! See everyone later for the strangeness . . . :facepunch:t3:

Thanks again @Pretty.Poison.Bombshell

hey @Secret-HQ, welcome. not sure exactly of the the times, but there is usually a day-to-hours-to-minutes counter in the top left corner for upcoming episodes on DCU. early in the am - 5 or 6, sounds about right for that.

Just binged (a few at a time) all 14 episodes, and am watching “Ezekiel Patrol” in joyful preparation!

Thanks for the warm welcomes, @biff_pow, @NovellPaladin, and @xLOVEandDoomPatrolx!

Looks like 9am ET/6am PT turned out to be the right times for the DCU drop. I’m still curious when HBO Max drops programs, but I’m guessing it’s midnight PT/3am ET. (If anyone knows, shout me out!)

My wife is putting the finishing touches on our Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Salads now, and we’re going to dive in a little early. (I may pop in and check on the official watch-along in a bit.)
