Doom Patrol Episodes 1 & 2: To Doom Patrol or Not to Doom Patrol?

DC's new high concept streaming TV series is based on the cult classic comics. The show is exclusively available on DC's streaming platform DC Universe. Is the show good? Is it worth subscribing to the platform? We discuss the service and the show's first two episodes in depth (first part is spoiler-free). We also geek out on the brilliant comics that inspired it all and when or how to read them.
