Edwin Paine and Charles Rowland looking over their shoulders in Dead Boy Detectives season 1

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Dead Boy Detectives is an exciting series with plenty of interesting mysteries and charismatic characters that keep you hooked every step of the way. Dead Boy Detectives was initially intended to be a spinoff of the DC series Doom Patrol. In that irreverent superhero show, Ty Tennant, Sebastian Croft, and Madalyn Horcher played the roles of Edwin Payne, Charles Rowland, and Crystal Palace, respectively.

Pros Netflix's Dead Boy Detectives stars George Rexstrew as Edwin, Jayden Revri as Charles, and Kassius Nelson as Crystal. The series centers on the detective agency led by Edwin and Charles, two ghosts who have decided not to move on to their uncertain afterlives, instead continuing to act in the mortal world as a detective duo that helps lost souls move on.

Dead Boy Detectives Adds Fun To The Sandman Universe The Netflix series does intimate moments and action well Netflix's The Sandman was one of the most interesting series the streamer has put out in recent years. The show did a lot of world-building in its first season, and Dead Boy Detectives continues that in great fashion. While there are a couple of players from The Sandman who return in key moments, Kirby Howell-Baptiste's role as Death is the most exciting one.

With a detective agency at its center, the show's eight episodes follow more or less a case-of-the-week approach, with overarching storylines that play throughout the season. This helps keep things at a fast pace, with each episode following the detectives as they choose what client to help — based on a few different factors — and has them face some heartbreaking revelations and formidable adversaries, including a witch that makes things very difficult for the series' lead trio.
