Think Legion on FX, you like Legion, you'll like this.

 

[Marks]

Yeah definitely not a regular cape show. Legion is a good comparison since they're both kinda all about trauma and dealing with emotional baggage, just from different perspectives.

I had a feeling the show returning would be around the corner

Doom Patrol Boss Promises ‘Satisfying Ending’ After 4 Wild Seasons: We’re ‘Going Out on Our Terms’

Caught up with the 2 new episodes. I had forgot about Isabel, that Immortus twist

 

[TheNatureBoy]

Show went all out for the musical episode

 

[Electric Ladyland]

damn these new episodes suck

feels like a chore to watch

 

[Marks]

You can tell they been in wrap it up mode for at least 1.5 seasons now. Also feels like they're on just no budget. Covid hit em hard and I don't think they ever recovered. It was nice seeing Niles again though.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

Yeah, seeing Niles again was cool. Hopefully the series finale this Thursday goes out on a high note.

 

[TheNatureBoy]

Well just watched the series finale. Since it's early, will drop my thoughts in spoilers

Spoiler

Well they wasted no time doing away with the threat of Immortus/singing butts. The show was never about them actually being a team and fighting villains, so I didn't mind. The crux of the episode was them saying goodbye to Rita and everyone on the team finding a new path. The funeral scene and them watching one of Rita's old movies was well done. Cliff going to see Rory and seeing a glimpse of his future life before dying was nice as well.

Will say the old age makeup on this show was rough.

 

[Marks]

Great final shot. Think it ended well.
