This may be one of the weirdest and most imaginative stories I've seen, and thats regardless of the fact that it stems from the DC library. To start off, Doom Patrol is a DC Universe original series, that on a surface level, mirrors an X-men story line. It follows a cast of heroes (in the loosest sense of the word), as they navigate through a series of extremely otherworldly and metaphysical events. If you take it one step deeper though, this show is the pinnacle of a comic-book property. For example, Marvel or even other DC films portray stories and characters with some sense of grounded realism, but Doom Patrol shows you just how much freedom a comic book story line can have. Its literally Deadpool on acid.
Everything about this product deserves its own praise. The actors and charterers are incredibly well written and brilliantly portrayed . Each member has such a deeply intricate personality, and connects to an interwoven story-line, in a way that screams for admiration. They have such good chemistry with each other, and the series does a good job with exploring each individual backstory with attention to detail and a unique sense of humor. The story literally cannot be explained; You need to watch it, to really understand it. Its not complex, its just very bizarre- think reality bending spectres, talking butts that eat people and donkey farts. Its also not immature, but quite profound (in-spite of that last statement). As a writer of the surrealist genre, I am amazed at how they pulled it off. The cinematography and score are also beautiful, with absolutely gorgeous imagery, aided by mesmerizing sound tracks.
I'm not really familiar with the source material, but this is genuinely one of the best comic stories I've seen. It knows is audience, and is not afraid to explore its surreal elements. I could go on and on, but clearly if you've made it this far, you can see how its going. Doom Patrol is a heavily under rated show, that completely utilized the chaos of the universe its in, to craft a truly and sincerely mind bending story. Its worth the watch, if you just enjoy weird, yet excellent content. 10/10
