Doom Patrol

Did I just miss the thread for this? How is no one talking about it yet?

After seeing J M Straczynski mention he likes this show I watched both seasons and absolutely loved it; can't wait for the third season (next month, I think?).

These characters deal with issues that you can't punch your way out of and, more often than not, their problems are of their own making. The story-telling is inventive and surprising, and Brendan Fraser's every other line being "What the FUCK?!?" never gets old.

This show, along with the recent Suicide Squad film, made me re-evaluate what I think of comic book-based adaptations: I no longer think I hate them, I just hate the ones Disney makes :lol:

I thought there was a thread on this show, as well. Yes, it is definitely a wild ride. The only advice I have for watching it is "don't try to take it seriously".

Season 3 should be coming out soon--Dorothy has to deal with the Candlemaker (or whatever its name is).

Season 3 is great so far. I loved how they continued Dorothy and the Candlemaker.

I wholeheartedly concur.

I really like how Dorothy resolved the Candlemaker situation.
