Among a chain of exciting and action events, this TV series takes after The Doom Patrol's members. These members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities but also left them so powerful. On the other hand, this team tries to identify its seemingly dangerous missions and may try to protect the earth from what they find, investigating the strangest phenomena that occur with the help of Niles Caulder, the clever doctor.
The series is refreshingly self-aware, both in the hilarious meta narration by Alan Tudyk... and in its more fundamental understanding that if you make a show about these characters, you'd best come weird or not come at all.
It seems the show had an interesting set up for these outsiders, but didn't know what to do with them after their origins were told, and they got out of the house. Still, this is an odd bit of super hero fun.
It has a wickedly dark sense of humor but also a clear desire to explore the humanity of these misanthropic outcasts. Doom Patrol is the breath of fresh air the superhero TV landscape sorely needed.
I found the first hour of this oddball adventure far more enjoyable and consistent than DC Universe's Titans, enlivened by sharp direction and a great ensemble.
Showrunner Jeremy Carver (Supernatural) has infused Doom Patrol with a good balance of self-referential humor and personal drama to make you already root for the four misfits by the time we get to the end of the episode.
