Doom Patrol (2019)
All good things are doomed.
The Doom Patrol’s members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities — but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found purpose through The Chief, who brought them together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence — and to protect Earth from what they find.

What kind of watch this is
Doom Patrol runs on a specific frequency: dark, weird, and deeply earnest. Created by Jeremy Carver, the 2019 series takes its "all good things are doomed" tagline seriously, treating trauma not as a backstory but as the engine of the plot. It is 38 hours of characters who are physically broken and emotionally raw, investigating cosmic threats that feel just as unsettling as their own internal damage. The tone is heavy, and the heart is surprisingly open. It is a show that refuses to let its heroes be cool, forcing you to sit with their pain before letting them save the world.
What the critics said
Critics leaned hard into the weirdness. Rotten Tomatoes gives the first season a 96% approval rating based on 53 reviews, averaging 8/10. Metacritic lands on 70 out of 100, signaling generally favorable reviews. The consensus praises the cast and the writing’s commitment to the bizarre. Jesse Schedeen of IGN scored the premiere 9.0, noting its "wicked" humor. Later seasons held that ground, with the third and fourth both reaching 100% approval. The final bow stays true to its quirky heart, which is exactly what you want from a show about broken people.
How it did with audiences
Doom Patrol skipped the box office entirely, so the only number that matters is the one on TMDB. Users rate it 7.5 out of 10. That is not a blockbuster score, but for a show about broken people fixing the world, it is plenty.
