Let's face it. Doom Patrol was a weird little show. But that's what made it so fun to watch. Just didn't take itself seriously.
I hadn't read the comics so I don't know the context and had zero expectations so maybe that's a good thing. I will say this last episode got me very emotional and I didn't expect that, especially considering how light-hearted and non-serious the show had always been. It didn't even bother me how the antagonists' story ended. Didn't matter because that's not what the show was ever really about. It's about a group of screwups who were trying to figure out who they are, trying to find some meaning in their lives, and were struggling deeply in doing so. The show has always been about their own personal struggles and issues, and in the end, they all found some level of peace in their own way.
Doom Patrol has never been a perfect show. Doesn't matter. I had fun watching it and the ending was very moving.
