Well, Titams has barely improved. It is sill making the cut, but is so far over par they need about 4 holes in one to make it a good show. Again, its not bad, and I love the Titans, so Im a sucker for them, but this is the era of prestige TV DC. This slapdash stuff is C material.
That said, they featured the Doom Patrol this episode. They are probably my second fave group after the Titans, and they are getting their own show. All indications are that this show will really be good. In the short space of the ep, the actors won me over, and the writing was so much better for those characters.
April Bowlby as Eita Farr does an awesome job. She embodies this tragic vanity, like a mutated Norman Desmond.
