The Official Doom Patrol TV Show Thread

This pilot dropping at the same time The Umbrella Academy dropped is really going to hurt this. The potential is there and the episode was good but nothing blew me away like UA did.

This show is way better then titans and i like titans more then most


The canera work was really good for television

Umbrella acedemy not going to hurt this.....Its dope number 1..and number 2 i watched UA whole season already......probably wont watch again....but ill damn sure be checking for "Donkey patrol"....there's a reason the "Stay tuned for next weeks episode " formula works..."Binge Watching" can be a real show killer.

didn't think we would be seeing titties in these DC shows

Pilot was dope. The narration made me think of The Maxx cartoon intro

Really liked the 1st episode, and was most surprised how invested I was in the characters particularly Robotman and his backstory. Anxious for episode 2

good first ep. Alan tudyk is always a plus for me. Cant say i really "like" any of the characters but brendan fraser lil twist on his story was cool. Well at least the first one was til they backtracked it. I can already tell crazy jane is going to annoy me at some point. At least she's good to look at. Ol girl that turns into a blob is just so useless to me lol but at least shes good to look at as well. When she's not melting. Im curious to see how this goes. Umbrella academy was definitely better as far as first eps go but im not gonna be comparing the two unless this shyt gets really bad. I hope they stop with the forced F-bombs at some point. I always feel like they dont come natural when a person is constantly saying it. Kudos for showing the titties too too bad it wasnt one of the main chicks though

At some point she is going to have to learn how to use her abilities because in the comics she is basically Plastic Man with a vagina.

ok thats decent. I dont know how you go from being a blob to being elastic but its whatever. At least she wont be useless. Hopefully that happens and they dont have her like blink on the gifted where she nvr actually masters her shyt.

Lowkey - this is already knocking on the door of my Top 3 DC live action shows on the strength of Mr. Nobody breaking the fourth wall in the first five minutes of this week's ep


Edit: I like this iteration of Cyborg a lot. It's more grounded than Ray Fisher's.

Hold up - Gerrard Way wrote Doom Patrol too? So he had two properties he was connected to debut on the same day, last Friday?

Just finished the ep.

This show is weird as fukk.

I love it.

Diane Guerrero is great

I can tell Crazy Jane is going to get real old, real quick for me......i hope they dont give her too much focus

 

[Norrin Radd]

Show is lit

I wanna meet the Touch Me Crazy Jane

I like this version of Cyborg much more than DCEU Cyborg but homie is a bad actor. Hopefully he gets better.

Brendan Fraser is killing this though. Felt myself legit feeling sad for him during his speech about his daughter

Yeah, so far she's basically been nothing but the "nerd fetish" hot chick.
They need to actually work on her character instead of just writing her as awful "edgy cool" or a thirst trap for male audiences.

I did like the second episode a lot better than the pilot though, mostly because they toned down the exposition.
