Non-Arrowverse DC TV Show Timelines

A lot of hate towards CW's Gotham Knights that I just don't understand.

The trailer stunk but we know next to nothing about it. That hate bandwagon mentality that YouTube and social media developed is toxic to me tbh.

I know for a fact that, hypothetically, if DC were to announce "this is a prequel to Batwoman" and "set in the Arrowverse" - those opinions of the detractors will flip to some degree. :|

I felt like I was the only person actually looking forward to the series.
 
Titans' season 1 episode "The Asylum" takes place in 2019 per the newest episode's timestamp.

But that would mean the previous episode is set in 2018 because of the "15 Years Ago" flashback to 2003.

So...December 31st / January 1st situation. (And admittedly, I think I found out that the dates I had for most of season one were based on Kory's arrival to Earth date that was really for 2017, not 2018...)

Good thing fallout clears after a certain amount of weeks. Otherwise...well, Big Ben will need to be rebuilt anyways.

I have one question (haha, you know like the hero that inspired Roschach xd): The watchmen universe from the Live Action series is canonically the same as the one that crossed over with the main DC universe in "The Button", "Doomsday Clock" and all of these crossovers?
 
Watchmen Comics Universe
- Watchmen (Comic Book)
- Before Watchmen (Comic Book)
- Doomsday Clock (Comic Book)
- Post-Doomsday Clock stories

Watchmen HBO Universe
- Watchmen (Comic Book)
- Watchmen (Television Series)
- Rorschach (Comic Book)

Watchmen Snyder Universe
- Watchmen: The End is Nigh (Video Game)
- Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut (Movie)
- Under the Hood (Short Film)

Before Watchmen and Watchmen (TV Series) have different histories regarding Hooded Justice.
 
FEBRUARY 23, 2019 for Doom Patrol S1 E2; confirmed in the Season 4 premiere.

@Rman Any big time gaps that I can squeeze in two years time since Season 3 takes place in 2021?

OK I found something different in Season 1's finale.

They cut out the "6 Months Later" time stamp and added "Present Day" in its place. George Lucas'ing this a bit from how the original DCU version was I guess...
 
FEBRUARY 23, 2019 for Doom Patrol S1 E2; confirmed in the Season 4 premiere.

@Rman Any big time gaps that I can squeeze in two years time since Season 3 takes place in 2021?

I still need to get caught up on S3. Sucks that they're clearly just setting that episode around its release date. I've been meaning to get caught back up with Titans and Doom Patrol.

For now I'll take the time jump in Season 1's finale as a 2 year jump to 2021. (April 1st, according to Mr. Nobody's magazine.)

DC Comics Multiverse Map. It mixes some Earths from the DC Live-Action Multiverse. There's some overlap for sure apparently.

Earth-789 - The Superman and Batman film series are the same universe post-crisis.

Pre-Crisis
Earth-96 - Superman Returns
Earth-89 - Batman I-IV, Catwoman

Post-Crisis
Earth-96 - Superman Returns
Earth-789 - Superman I-IV, Supergirl, Batman I-II, The Flash

That, or post-crisis Earth-96 is known as Earth-789 in the comic multiverse listing.
