Huge fan of the series. Terrible title. But grateful we're getting another season.

Maybe it’s to avoid confusion with the upcoming IT prequel (Welcome to Derry) on the same platform.

Will it still be on Epix also? The title change may be to educate the zillion HBO Max subscribers who have no idea Pennyworth exists because they never had Epix? "What's this Pennyworth about? Never heard of it."

It's being shared with EPIX, but EPIX is getting it much later. I mentioned it earlier in this thread when the move as announced.

What they really need to do now is to blatantly mention Batman in the subtitle of every single DC comic property so there is no way people can miss the fact that they are under the same banner.

Cancelled, I'm not surprised. I did think it was well made, but there seemed to be zero enthusiasm for this series.

The new season just premiered on HBO Max last Fall and there seemed to be zero excitement for it. I haven't heard Gunn and Safran talk about it either, so they must not care for it.

Never did start this. Will it be removed, as well?

I wouldn't have minded a fourth season, but the show got pretty out there. 30 episodes is a good run.

The series was shared with EPIX now MGM+ since it originally aired on that network. They got 2nd dibs to the 3rd season months later after it dropped on HBO Max. So the episodes are still there.

I got through 2 eps but just don’t care. Maybe with Gunn in charge they will finally make a real Batman show instead of Baby Batman and every villain and butler in the BatVerse.

Ha who am I kidding. They aren’t making a Batman show in my lifetime.

First season was interesting, if a little more geared for British tastes. Then it got weirder and weirder after that. Kind of felt like the prequel to Gotham on Fox, but on acid.
