TITANTALK 051: "Fun Size Patrol" Is Up!


"You think Danny will ever grow big again?"
"No clue."
"I hope they do.  Nobody deserves to be a brick."
"Maybe Danny wants to be a brick."
-- Robotman and Crazy Jane, Doom Patrol: "Fun Size Patrol"

Hello again, Doom Patrol fans!  Titans Tower finally reopens as my co-host DJ Nik joins me for a brand-new episode of TitanTalk: The Titans Podcast!  This time, we discuss "Fun Size Patrol", the first episode from Doom Patrol Season 2, featuring Timothy Dalton as the Chief, Diane Guerrero as Crazy Jane, the return of Mark Sheppard as Willoughby Kipling, and the introduction of Abigail Shapiro as Dorothy Spinner!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I discuss things like DJ Nik joining me as co-host, differences between the comic book and TV versions of Dorothy Spinner, who the "Eismann" might be that Willoughby Kipling referred to, making a wish for the Candlemaker, waiting for Dorothy Spinner to sing at Peeping Tom's Cabaret on Danny the Street, Abigail Shapiro getting her English accent from watching Harry Potter, American actors faking British accents better than British actors faking American accents, Dorothy's upbeat attitude despite her harsh treatment as "The Ape Faced Girl", Wes Craven's film Wishmaster, the Chief's love for Dorothy, speculating why the showrunners made Dorothy the Chief's daughter in the TV version, the Chief singing "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter", Kipling's price for restoring the Doom Patrol to normal size, the Chief and Kipling having a "science vs. magic" relationship, Cliff's dad banging the counter girl at the Dairy Queen, Cliff's anger toward the Chief coming from his anger toward Cliff's father, Cliff punching out rats, Crazy Jane battling her other personalities for dominance of their persona, Cliff and Jane's relationship evolving into a close friendship, Rita finally deciding she wants to be a superhero, Cyborg having PTSD flashbacks, Larry being a complete douche to his kids, Cliff walking in with a ratskin coat, our favorite quotes of the episode, Cliff walking in with a ratskin cloak, new Tell It to TitanTalk feedback from Holly Mac, and more!
