so anyway, DC's Doom Patrol (2019) is a level of storytelling that simply feels so impossible, and coming from DC too, and YET
#As far as unbelievably philosophical and idealogy-packed media in the recent 5 years go#do not talk to me about feminism unless it's about Blue Eye Samurai and Doom Patrol#i mean. Doom Patrol is a truly marvelous creation#f u c k i n g unbelievable that it's a DC production. like the fucking titan-killer balls on Jeremy Carver for producing this thing#It's literally physically impossible to watch more than 2 episodes of this show per night. the level of philosophical commentary#and the unfathomable map of interconnected symbolism and narrative deconstruction in real time. I've resigned myself to not catching a good#50% of the show like it's just fucking impossible. i need at least 15 more rewatches#but also i think about Doom Patrol in relation to Gotham TV for more than 2.5 seconds and i start bawling like#Truly Gotham TV walked so Doom Patrol could win Olympic 100m sprint#it solid hurts to think about the level of storytelling Gotham TV would've had if it had gotten Jeremy Carver's writing room#and a hard R rating; noone would've survived Gotham TV and the lost potential of it is physically painful to think about#What i would've given for Jeremiah Valeska to have been a Doom Patrol writer's musing!!!!!!!#but anyway Doom Patrol is an insane insane story. Simply one of the most intelligent complex narratives#to have been portrayed on TV in the past 5 years. This series has A FUCKING LOT to say and it does not fucking stutter#And it's got the only female characters i want to hear about in TV shows; these are my girls my kind of women#Like 5 episodes in and i dont even treat this production as a TV show it's more like a movement manifesto#and it's so brutal so refreshing so tender and heartfelt and so real#literally a TV show that makes you glad to be its audience. holy fucks!!!#checked A03 and it has about 600 fics i think?? because of course it does#this thing is SO FUCKING PACKED and too intelligent for the average viewer lol i geniunely have no idea how is this show real#IN DC UNIVERSE!!!!!#and i'll forever weep about Gotham TV not getting Doom Patrol's writing team like JESUS THIS HURTS#so anyway i have immense love for Doom Patrol it's a part of my identity now#Doom patrol
