Q&A with @tfarrell15 and @shoshanasachi on @TheDCUniverse

"What was your Favorite part of the Danny Patrol Episode?"

"What was it like writing for a character like Danny when you knew the actors would have to play off a non-living entity?"

"1. Do you think that the Negative Spirit, being an interdimensional alien being, could be nonbinary?
2. What was the Negative Spirit’s thought process when Larry tried to sacrifice his life for it?"

"Will we see more of flex? Will we see more of Jane’s personalities? Will cliff try to connect with his daughter? Can we have ten more seasons?"

"What was the writing process like for the show?"

"1. What is it like working with a co-writer?
2. What do you do when you have writers block?"

"1. Do you think that Larry and Flex look up to Agent Forsythe as a father figure because of how he...pushed them to their highest potential under the...watch of the Bureau...?
2. How is each episode divided amongst the writers and how much time do you get to write each episode?"

"Thanks for taking the time to answer questions and for an awesome first season!!! Who’s your favorite character to write for? Is there a specific character you feel like it’s hard to get into their “voice”? Can’t wait for season 2!!!"

"My favorite character on the show is Rita, but I was disappointed that she hardly used her powers in season one. When you have a character named Elastiwoman, you expect them to do cool things...The character of Jane kind of hogged the first season"

"What moment in your respective episodes brought you the most joy. Was it a line or scene?
Can you share a positive message you received from a fan that really made you feel great?"

"Hi Room Patrol!

When starting to write out your episodes, was there anything specific you found inspiring or influential for the story you were trying to tell? Music, personal experiences?

Thank you,
Doom Patrol Radio"

"Thank you for taking some time off and answering our questions. My question is are their any members that you are looking at to join the Doom Patrol as a regular member or are you happy with the team as they are?"

"I love Rachel Pollack’s run. That’s about all I can give away."

"My question: despite having done some heinous things, The Chief in the TV show is a much kinder and gentler man than I ever recall from the comics or even the Doom Patrol episode of Titans. How did this different take on him come to be?"

"First, thank you for bringing us what is easily my favorite DCU original!

1. How do your minds work in such magical ways?
2. Was there any improv by the cast?"

"1 What was the approach to avoiding the generic, overdone build-a-team-and-fight-big-bad trope? The series never felt like that, and it didn’t feel like the characters were relegated to roles either, emphasizing their growth.
2 Who’s the biggest Marvel fan in the writer’s room?"

"My question: how does having those varying degrees of interest and engagement with the comics factor into crafting a show like this?"

"Doom Patrol is thoroughly weird as it stands, but was there anything that was so weird you didn’t dare put it in?

Also, the obligatory question that any wannabe writer has to ask those established in the biz: do you have any advice on writing?"

"First off who do you prefer Admiral Whiskers or Ezekiel “The Cockroach”?"

"First off who do you prefer Admiral Whiskers or Ezekiel “The Cockroach”?
Second, when you were reading Doom Patrol (I assume you read it) what did you see that astounded you with its weirdness."

"First, I want to congratulate you both for writing such an awesome series! My questions is which Doom Patrol character do you identify with the most and why?"

2 Who’s the biggest Marvel fan in the writer’s room?"

"Hey Room Patrol!

Loved the first season and can’t wait for the second season. My question is what was the writing process like for episode 9(Jane Patrol)?

Thanks,
ProActress20 (Doom Patrol Club)"

"Do the writers have any input to the song choices used? Cuz a lot of the song choices have been EXCEPTIONAL. Esp the Lou Reed and David Bowie."

"Love the show!

What DOOM PATROL storylines will you be pulling from in season 2?
Which of Crazy Jane’s personalities is your fave and why?
How crazy (or tame) are the cast table reads?"
