In London, ghosts Edwin Payne and Charles Rowland are the Dead Boy Detective Agency, solving supernatural cases while hiding from Death. After helping a World War I-era spirit move on to his afterlife, they rescue psychic medium Crystal Palace from her ex-boyfriend David, a demon who steals her memories. A poster of missing girl scout Becky Aspen leads the trio to Port Townsend, Washington, where Crystal rents a room above Jenny Green's butcher shop and meets fellow tenant Niko Sasaki. Psychically stalked by David, Crystal learns that Edwin was killed by bullying classmates in a botched summoning of the demon Sa'al and trapped in Hell for seventy years. With Crystal's help and information extracted from a stray cat, they rescue Becky from Esther Finch, a witch who kidnaps young girls to maintain her youth and feed her gigantic snake. Esther overpowers the boys but Crystal invades her mind, seeing Esther with the dark goddess Lilith in an ocean of blood. Charles briefly possesses Esther, allowing them to escape and Becky, all memory of her captivity erased, is reunited with her parents. Meanwhile, Charles' possession of Esther alerts the Afterlife's Lost and Found Department to the Dead Boy Detectives' location.
2"The Case of the Dandelion Shrine" Glen Winter Shoshana Sachi & Cheech ManoharApril 25, 2024 (2024-04-25)T12.17652
The trio is brought before the Cat King, who is fascinated by Edwin and locks a bracelet on his wrist — a caging spell to keep him in Port Townsend; Edwin may break the spell by responding to the King's attraction, or by counting every cat in the city. The boys find no solution at Tragic Mick's magic shop, but are given an enchanted glass globe holding the sounds of the sea. Niko collapses after projecting colorful visions, and the boys determine she is possessed by deadly, attention-seeking Dandelion Sprites from a forest shrine. They learn the creatures can be contained by the shrine's enchanted vessel, but Charles accidentally breaks it. To save Niko, Crystal offers herself as a new host for the Sprites, Kingham and Litty, but Edwin traps them in the enchanted jar. Thanks to her near-death experience, a now white-haired Niko can see Edwin and Charles, who are flooded with mail as ghostly clients line up at their door. Meanwhile, a vengeful Esther turns her crow familiar, Monty, into a young human, and the Afterlife's Night Nurse sets out to retrieve the fugitive detectives.
3"The Case of the Devlin House" Cheryl Dunye Ian Weinreich & Kristy LowreyApril 25, 2024 (2024-04-25)T12.17653
The detectives screen potential clients, including new ghost Susan Kessler, whose brother-in-law Brandon Devlin killed her sister Stacy and their daughters, Hope and Hannah, in a murder-suicide thirty years ago, leaving a malevolent presence in their house. Jealous of Charles' sexual tension with Crystal, Edwin researches the case with Niko at the local library and meets Monty, who can see Edwin. Secretly monitored by cats sent by the Cat King, Crystal and the boys investigate the Devlins' home, where the family's ghosts continuously relive the murders. Reminded of his own abusive father, Charles is trapped in the loop when he tries to intervene. Edwin and Crystal discover a secret surveillance room Brandon used to spy on his family, where a Misery Wraith has been feeding on the ghosts' pain. Inside Crystal's mind, David offers to help in exchange for re-possessing her, but Edwin erases the surveillance tape of the murders, freeing the family and trapping the wraith. The detectives escape before Death arrives, and they encounter Monty, who continues to flirt with Edwin. Meanwhile, the Night Nurse questions the Devlin daughters about the “heroes” who saved them.

Crystal and Niko learn Jenny is receiving letters from a secret admirer, and a ghost named Dagfinn hires the detectives to investigate two suicides at his lighthouse. They witness a third person leap into the sea to their death, but the police refuse to believe them, and the leapers' ghosts reveal they were drawn by the voices of loved ones. The Cat King makes further advances on Edwin, and Niko saves Crystal from jumping after her mother's voice. Using a piece of red sea glass, the group summons a spirit known as the Washer Woman, who explains that a sea monster is responsible, and Tragic Mick provides them with a music box to lull the monster, Angie, to sleep. The Night Nurse arrives to take Edwin and Charles to their afterlives, forcing Charles to relive his worst memories, including his death at the hands of his classmates. Enraged, Charles knocks the Night Nurse off the cliff to be swallowed by Angie along with the music box. Later, Tragic Mick scours the shore for more sea glass, and Edwin joins Niko as she finally reads her estranged mother's letters, while Charles and Crystal give in to their mutual attraction and kiss.

Waking from a nightmare, Crystal decides she and Charles should remain just friends, and the detectives are hired by teenage ghosts Brad and Hunter, who believe they were murdered. Niko discovers that Jenny's admirer is librarian Maxine, and arranges a date for them at the butcher shop. The detectives interview Brad and Hunter's classmates, including Twitchy Richie, who points them to Brad's ex-girlfriend Shelby, who killed herself. Edwin summons Shelby's ghost, who explains that Brad and Hunter sabotaged her Olympics prospects but she did not kill them. Crystal is nearly poisoned by Brad's girlfriend Maren, and the detectives realize the truth: Brad shared Maren's private photos with Hunter, so she spiked their drinks to steal their phones; they died from the drinks, and Richie helped move their bodies. Maren turns herself in to the police, and Charles and Edwin confront Brad and Hunter, who are dragged to Hell. Jenny and Maxine's date goes well, until Jenny realizes the obsessive Maxine has been stalking her. Chasing Jenny with a cleaver, Maxine slips and impales her head on a spike. Ordered by Esther to win the detectives' trust, Monty kisses Edwin, who declares that he has feelings for someone else.

They buy a "Light of Heart" artifact to protect Crystal from David, but she loses her psychic gifts as a result. Monty lures the detectives into Tall Forest, where ghosts have gone missing, but has a change of heart. They realize a fungal-like creature is consuming ghosts into nothingness, and David terrorizes Crystal until Charles dispatches him with his magic cricket bat. Edwin and Monty are confronted by the Cat King, who reveals Monty's true identity as Esther's crow, and Edwin's feelings for Charles. Esther tears apart Monty's human form before unleashing Teeth Face, a giant Forest Elemental. Deciphering the riddle given to her by the Washer Woman, Crystal communes with her ancestors and gains even greater powers, convincing Teeth Face to return to its realm with Esther in tow.

Production

Development

On September 3, 2021, Variety reported that HBO Max ordered a pilot for a potential Dead Boy Detectives series, then-intended as a spin-off of Doom Patrol , with Steve Yockey as writer and executive-producer alongside Jeremy Carver, Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and David Madden. [7] On April 14, 2022, HBO Max gave the production a series order, with Yockey set as showrunner; [8] Beth Schwartz was attached as co-showrunner that September. [9] By February 24, 2023, the project was moved from HBO Max to Netflix, reportedly due to being incompatible with DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran's plans to have HBO Max's DC shows be set in the DC Universe, as well as due to HBO Max's inability to air the series before 2024. [10]

On April 20, 2023, Neil Gaiman confirmed the series would be set in the same universe as The Sandman ; [11] Gaiman was announced as an additional executive-producer that November. [12] While the producers had always planned for the series to be set in the same universe as The Sandman, which aired on Netflix, Warner Bros. (parent of HBO Max, DC Comics Studios and Dead Boy Detectives publisher Vertigo Comics) did not allow them to use elements from that series when Dead Boy Detectives was still an HBO Max project, to avoid licensing issues with Netflix. [13] As such, the showrunners instead included broad connections between both shows that still established them as part of the same continuity while only "lightly tipto[ing] around and through the Sandman universe". After the project moved to Netflix, the showrunners incorporated characters and more overt connection to The Sandman at the behest of both Netflix and Sandman showrunner Allan Heinberg. [14] [15] Dead Boy Detectives was released on Netflix on April 25, 2024. [3] On August 30, 2024, Netflix canceled the series after one season. [4]

Casting

In November 2021, George Rexstrew, Jayden Revri, Kassius Nelson, Alexander Calvert, Briana Cuoco, Ruth Connell, Yuyu Kitamura, and Jenn Lyon were cast. [16] [17] Lukas Gage replaced Calvert in September 2022. [9] In October 2022, Michael Beach, Joshua Colley, and Lindsey Gort joined the cast in recurring capacities. [18] A month later, Caitlin Reilly, Max Jenkins, and David Iacono were cast. [19] [20] In April 2024, Kirby said she would be reprising her Sandman role as Death; [6] Kirby joined the cast for a cameo in the pilot following the series' move to Netflix, with the original iteration having Death appear offscreen due to licensing issues. [21]

Filming

The pilot episode was filmed between December 2021 and January 2022, with Lee Toland Krieger directing and executive-producing. [22] [10] Filming for the series began on November 7, 2022, in Langley, British Columbia, and concluded on April 5, 2023. [23]

Reception

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports a 92% approval rating with an average rating of 7.5/10, based on 50 critic reviews. The website's critics' consensus reads, "Dead Boy Detectives expands the Sandman universe with an addictively entertaining paranormal fantasy with excitement, romance, and young adult angst to spare." [24] Metacritic assigns a score of 65 out of 100 based on 19 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [25]

Dead Boy Detectives debuted at number two on Netflix's Top 10 TV English titles for the tracking week of April 22–28, 2024, with 22.2 million hours viewed. [26] On the following week, it ranked at number three and garnered 34.1 million viewing hours. [27] On its third week, the series fell to number seven, earning 13.3 million viewing hours. [28]
