Plot:
Part 1
In the upcoming fourth season, the team unexpectedly travels to the future to find an unwelcome surprise. Faced with their inminent demise, the Doom Patrol must decide once and for all which is more important: their own happiness or the fate of the world?
Part 2
In the series’ gripping final episodes, the Doom Patrol meet old friends and foes as they race to defeat Immortus and get back their longevities. Battling between saving the world and each other, the Doom Patrol are forced to face their deepest fears and decide if they are ready to let go of the past in order to take their future into their own hands… and away from the zombie butts.
Season 4 of Doom Patrol was Amazing.
Pros: I liked how this season doesn’t hold anything back telling what they want to tell. Each team member goes through emotional and challenging decisions that will affect their futures. The special effects are so good. I enjoyed every episode had a different “Patrol meaning” to them. At times this season did make me laugh and the ending was so well beautifully executed.
Cons: My only problems were the story took a while to wrap my head a round to what’s happening and all of the villains except from Immortus didn’t pose much of a threat.
