It’s all doom and gloom for two DC comic series as they have been officially axed by HBO Max.
Both shows will end after the rest of their fourth seasons are released, to the dismay of fans. The cancellations were confirmed by an HBO Max spokesperson who said that ‘while these will be the final seasons of Titans and Doom Patrol, they are very proud of these series and excited for fans to see their climactic endings’.
“We are grateful to Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros Television for making such thrilling, action-packed, heartfelt series,” added the spokesperson. “We thank Titans showrunner Greg Walker, executive producers Greg Berlanti, Akiva Goldsman, Sarah Schechter, Geoff Johns, Richard Hatem, and the team at WRP.
“For Doom Patrol, we celebrate showrunner Jeremy Carver and executive producers Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Geoff Johns, Chris Dingess, and Tamara Becher-Wilkinson. For four seasons, fans have fallen in love with the Titans and Doom Patrol, investing in their trials and tribulations, and in their legendary battles saving the world time and time again.”
Titans and Doom Patrol had originally premiered on DC Universe to help launch the platform, and moved to HBO Max for its inception in 2020, as DC Universe became a premium digital comic book service.
Both series have released the first half of their fourth seasons on HBO Max, and will return with the last six episodes each later this year.
