Have you checked out some of Rekkai's deep dives for other content we've watched? Click the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mam7eZ1orpeKeMk

[@stacyp2186]

You are the only reactor I watch that is doing this show. I’m so happy. I never read the comic but the characters showed up in the Doom Patrol in one episode. I’ve been waiting several years for them to have a show. I was not disappointed.

[@Syntell]

Love Doom Patrol. The whole universe is something special.

[@bingleyausten]

Yes, Mikel-Claire is picking up on something. Mary Ann was a common derogatory term for a young gay man at the time when Edwin was alive. But I hadn't noticed that when the two boys are disguised, Edwin adopts a female persona.

[@lysfranc8782]

In all disguises Edwin put on a female persona

[@AnxietyRat]

Yeah, SUCH a good catch!!!

[@kaishaman7144]

When Edwin hesitated to let Crystal join, part of it probably has to do with him generally not trusting humans and being overall cautious and sensible. But I also think that a big part of it is him being jealous because Charles seems to like her. It became really obvious to me when Edwin jumped through the mirror to get the girl's shoes in an uncharacteristically careless manner, burning his hand with iron in the process. He was clearly trying to show off in front of Charles ("See, Charles, Crystal is not the only one who can do cool things around here")

[@davidcheater4239]

The clown fake-out was brilliant. And dear Crystal Palace; when you are talking to the little voices in your head - wear a Bluetooth. I'm not going to say why I know this.

[@nupefromdaville]

Bwahahahahahahaha

[@Syntell]

That's actually brilliiant. 😂

[@_adrian_sean]

LISSEN!!! Teach the babies LMAO

[@OldManFerdiad]

Yes, it's set in the Sandman universe (multiverse?). Death was again played by the sublime Kirby Howell-Baptiste and the diagram on the wall in the underworld offices at the end showed the same design as Hell in The Sandman series. I don't know the original comics so I'm along for the ride and can't wait to see if there are any more crossover cameos.

[@Syntell]

I saw the chart. Now I have to review it again to pick out some of the details. Good looking out.

[@Darknamja]

Yes, Kirby Howell-Baptiste also played Death in the Sandman series. 😉

[@Syntell]

Ahhh so the worlds are tied together 🤔

[@tnw206]

Yes they are ​@Syntell

[@theunderworldstudios5341]

So glad to see a reactor finally watch this show. I hope more people give it a chance because it's really good

[@Syntell]

Thank you for spending your time with us. We hope you enjoy.

[@mariamejawara]

Yeah me too

[@KelliFranklin]

I love this series so much! I'm so happy y'all are watching this! If you like this show I cannot recommend Good Omens enough. It's written by Neal Gamen and Terry Pratchett and has David Tennant, Michael Sheen and Jon Hamm. I think both of y'all would love it. I look forward to watching this with y'all!

[@itsreeeshaaa7560]

Good Omens would be the perfect follow up show to this for them to watch.

[@Syntell]

Now that sounds like a great recommendation.

[@timothylangston3560]

Came here to recommend good omens. I have to say though I was more impressed with the second season than the 1st

[@KelliFranklin]

@@timothylangston3560 I really enjoyed season 2 as well. I think because it was more focused on Aziraphale and Crowley. I can't wait for season 3!

[@HuntingViolets]

I keep suggesting this, so I second it. :) Or fourth it.

[@Darknamja]

I know nothing of any books or graphic novels but I am enjoying this series thus far. 😉

[@Syntell]

Same here. Neil Gaiman sold me on Sandman, so he gets a free pass on this series regardless. Let's hope it's as great as Sandman.

[@OldManFerdiad]

Crystal Palace is a neighbourhood in South London (very nice park, used to have The Crystal Palace, a giant glass house that housed the Great Exhibition of 1850-51 in Hyde Park then moved to South London in 1852 and the neighbourhood took on the name).

[@Syntell]

I didn't know that. That's a great tidbit of info. Thanks

[@ObsessiveBookworm13]

I'm so glad you're watching this! I watch your Doctor Who and now this reaction series for sure!! Hope you guys like it.

[@Syntell]

Loving it so far. Thank you for spending your time with us.

[@IsiahBradley]

Okay, a Syntell and Gaiman combo...hmmm...(and I'm love with Death :))...Okay, I'll wait 'till you guys are done and I'll binge these!! But I'll Like you guys as you come out!!!

[@Syntell]

We'll be here waiting for you.

[@carlitovalencia87]

I just finished binging this show. Glad to see your reaction. ♥️

[@Darknamja]

Yes. Long time no see. Welcome back. 😉

[@grapek5619]

Im so glad u react to this series, imo its super underrated people should talk about it more!! ive watched all the episodes and the story is really fun and intresting, hope u will like it too

[@Syntell]

The has been a brilliant pilot episode. Looking forward to the other episodes.

[@cymbamcreynolds8838]

I'm so glad you guys are reacting to this! I'm loving it so far. I've been craving a new paranormal detective show for a while now. The witch was giving me life. The demon possession as a metaphor for a toxic relationship is also interesting. I can't wait for the next video!

[@Syntell]

It can't get more toxic than having a stalking demon 😂 I can't wait to see how it all unfolds.

[@cassidyuk]

This was a cracking series. Enjoy it both.

[@hoffmangirl23]

Omg, I am so thrilled to see this pop up! I am already so obsessed with this show so I am excited to see other people watching, glad that you enjoyed, can't wait to see the rest! Edit to add- I am always so impressed with how astute you guys are with the things you pick up, you are already catching some things that I missed on my first watch.

[@kullaratt.9336]

I wanted to point out that Neil Gaiman didn't write for this show and wrote very little of DBD comics (in this show he only wrote 3 scenes that have characters from Sandman to maintain the consistency in their characteristic. One of those is the scene with Death and the WWI soldier in this ep). He's only an executive producer for this show. Steve Yockey and Beth Schwartz are the showrunners

[@liseu.2271]

Love that you guys are reacting to this series. I'm a bit older than you guys and read the complete graphic novel series of this over 20 years ago. I am a diehard, Neil Gaiman fan. In the graphic novels, the boys were younger, around 11 or 12. No spoilers, but I am picking up a few references from the books.

[@nupefromdaville]

This show is fantastic! I will gladly give up my seat for Mikel-Claire! She is effervescent! (look that up)...lol Cobra Kai out!

[@jomiasharris357]

Honestly can't wait until they have a season 2. So good

[@stevenjump8234]

Yes this show takes place in the same world as The Sandman. So that was the same Death character from Sandman. There is one more character from it that pops up later. I'm not saying when or who it is. I love this show and look forward to your reactions.

[@Darknamja]

A bottomless "Bag of Tricks" like Felix the Cat had. 😉

[@HorrorGeek9]

More Sandman fans should watch this show. Love that yall are reacting to this.

[@toastghost2448]

I have been looking at other reactions channels recently because I love this show so much and I have to say your guys' video has been my favourite! Your laughs are very nice and I feel like your reactions are genuine! I'll definitely be checking out your other content!

[@ald00I]

this is such a good show, i loved watching it

[@carolyn05]

So happy you're watching this show!!

[@Syntell]

Loved Sandman too much to skip out on this one.

[@bmatth81]

Thank yall so much to reacting to this. New subscriber in because of it. 👏👏

[@poolkids5216]

I quite literally finished watching this show and needed more 😂😂😂

[@kshitijmore9107]

Happyy to find that atleast you guys are reacting to it!!! ✨♥️

[@heafie]

❤ love you guy Yet another series that i'm so happy you guys are reviewing 👊🏿

[@Argonaute355]

first time watching your channel, great video! I loved hearing your opinions and break down!

[@saahir18]

Y’all should definitely check out Doom Patrol where they first appeared in. That show is seriously in top 5 of best comic book adaptation contender.

[@francisgilbert6982]

True story. The Dead Boy Detectives were actually hired to help the Doom Patrol on the Doom Patrol show (You should watch that) to...... (Spoilers) I didn't know that they were getting a show of their own. Its funny to see that so many people watching stuff that I watched before and reacting to it. If I knew that I could have done so on KZbin I would have. I have watched so many things from almost every country I had to keep a journal to remember the names.

[@Syntell]

You should take stab at it. And when you do send me your link.

[@francisgilbert6982]

@@Syntell ok

[@kullaratt.9336]

This show was originally gonna be on HBO and tied in to Doom Patrol universe, but HBO sold the rights to Netflix so they have to recast, and decided to tied this into Sandman. Quite fitting since the 2 boys first appearance was in a sandman comic

[@francisgilbert6982]

@@Syntell You and Rekkai should do a reaction to the series The Expanse

[@lilu4644]

Please react to the movie "nowhere" it's amazing, enjoy.

[@knitmore3]

Well hey Soror Mikel-Claire! It’s good to see you over here again! You were missed!! I literally started watching this after I finished Parasyte because I saw you were reviewing with Syntell!!

[@snootyvegans]

Thanks Soror 💚💕💚💕!! Isn’t this show awesome!! The characters are so much fun. Can’t wait for the rest of the season!!

[@_adrian_sean]

😮 I just watched this whole series! WHY are y'all in my head?? Lol

[@makisky4495]

Ahh I love this show! Why is there STILL no word (after a month?)on if it's renewed or not 💀which it better be. Also Ruth Connel!! I freaking loved her as Rowena on Supernatural 😍

[@ane6183]

Oh my god you guys are reacting to Dead Boy Detectives!!!!!!

[@3cookiess]

Thanks so much for doing this react

[@powerof3ozzyluver2]

This show is badass I hope it keeps going and don’t get canceled

[@shreyasharma1101]

Loved your reactions soo much

[@Syntell]

Thank you so much!!

[@makisky4495]

23:58 Monty!! Jesus. I'm trying to threaten some ppl 😊

[@HuntingViolets]

"The DC Marvel Universe" -- those are two different universes, by the way.

[@kimjoohans]

My fav series this month 😢❤ kinda worried about they might cancelled this one too 😢

[@Syntell]

I see people slowly coming around to it. I hope it lasts too.

[@mayaenglish5424]

[@Syntell]

That's crazy. The trauma has to be unbelievable.

[@moonchildsfaeryrealm.3971]

It's also in the sandman universe too

[@s0ulk1tchen]

I am SO happy that this show is getting the recognition it deserves! This is honestly one of the only channels i’ve seen that have reacted to it. Thank you. 🥹

[@Syntell]

Glad you enjoy it!

wait did she clock them saying "mary ann" as a slur for gay people? i only found out it had meaning through twitter
