I recently got HBO Max and one of the first show I decided to check out was "Doom Patrol". Aside from the weird choice to add Cyborg to the team, it's a pretty good show. it manages to capture the strange spirit of Morrison's run on the comic.
Timothy Dalton is awesome as Niles Caulder. Despite the terrible things the Chief does, he still manages to come off as sympathetic.
It's great just to see Brendan Frasier in anything and he really nails it as Cliff Steele. He's the true heart of the show.
April Bowlby has always been both smoking hot and funny on Two and a Half Men. She shows she has real acting chops portraying former 50s screen queen Rita Farr.
I'm unfamiliar with the actors portraying Negative Man and Crazy Jane, but their characters are compelling, as well.
Overall, the show is definitely worth a watch and I'm really looking forward to season 3.

It really is. The The Titans show is enjoyable, too, but it takes too many liberties with the story material and doesn't stay faithful to the nature of the characters the way Doom Patrol does.
