Featured reviews
Diane Guerrero is both beautiful and brilliant as Jane. Brendan Fraser surprisingly perfect as robotman. The story is a mess and all over the place, leaving holes the size of boulders and contradictions that are really annoying. Some episodes are crazy, yet entertaining, but silly at the same.
Overall entertaining, somewhat whacky, with some excellent moments.

Loved every second of it. This series takes the DC universe to a whole new level. Amazing cast. Brendan Fraser is a stand out. Must watch for any super hero or underdog lovers.
I've enjoyed these characters and stories more than pretty much all other DC universe entertainment. They're weird, relatable, funny, and complex. The story for the first three seasons kept things interesting, but I'm really having trouble following or finding anything interesting in the fourth season. My SO will watch anything and she's just about given up after watching 3 1/2 seasons. I'm invested in wrapping it up, but it's disappointing to see things end in such a lackluster whimper. S4 comes with a musical episode - a telltale sign that a series has run out of ideas. Not sure if this is staying true to the source or they're trying to be deeply satirical but it's all falling flat in the end. Bummer. First three seasons were cool.
This show has crossed every limit of psychological drama. Im so glad that I ran into this show. It's a weirdly unique show with a deep character development. The plot is so different and extraordinary that it makes a perfect blend of dark comedy genre and a offbeat superhero genre at the same time. The fact that writers did an super excellent job in putting together the storylines of interacting with the past and present, warping reality, time and space, mixing personalities, etc. wihtout any plothole is to be appreciated. To be honest, till now there's not a single superhero show made like Doom Patrol. Hats off to the writers for a thought provoking script and to an amazing cast who did an award winning performance. It definitely deserves a watch.
I can't explain my love for this show.... like an alcoholic fever dream.... surreal to the point of ridiculous but with some thought put into it....sheer brilliance...if I could meet the creators of this fantastical nonsense, then the world will be in balance! Embrace.... your will to be wierd!
