HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: Streaming on HBO Max

Season Premiere
Are you ready for more Doom Patrol? The misfit superhero series is bringing in some new faces for season 3, including Michelle Gomez (Doctor Who) as Madame Rouge, who arrives in a time machine to warn the team about a major threat. Unfortunately, she can't remember exactly what it is. "It's frankly a funny path of self-discovery because when she comes to be with the Doom Patrol, she's completely forgotten who she is and what her powers are," showrunner Jeremy Carver tells EW. "So watching her rediscover what she can do is hopefully a lot of fun and a little silly." The season also sees the debut of the Brotherhood of Evil — the antagonists from the classic Doom Patrol comics by creator Arnold Drake and Bob Haney — including the talking French gorilla Monsieur Mallah and the disembodied brain known as the Brain. That's Doom Patrol for you. —Tyler Aquilina & Christian Holub
