The show focuses on the titular group, consisting of several powerful superheroes widely regarded as outcasts in society. Here's the official synopsis of the show, as per HBO:

''DC’s unlikeliest group of heroes, the Doom Patrol, are ready to save the world… kind of. After suffering horrific accidents that gave them superhuman abilities, Cliff/Robotman, Larry/Negative Man, Rita/Elasti-Woman, Jane/Crazy Jane, and Vic/Cyborg were each left scarred, disfigured, and ostracized – until mad scientist Dr. Niles Caulder brings the outcasts together to treat and protect them.''

The synopsis further reads:

''Gritty and irreverent, Doom Patrol follows this part support group, part superhero team as they take on evil, otherworldly forces determined to destroy humankind – even if it wants nothing to do with them.''

The series features Diane Guerrero as Jane, April Bowlby as Rita Farr, and Brendan Fraser and Riley Shanahan as Cliff Steele, among many others, in significant roles. The show is helmed by Jeremy Carver, best known for his work on Supernatural, Frequency, and Being Human, to name a few.
