Don't let DCs run of flops (Wonder Woman excluded) hold you back. This show is the complete opposite of the painfully serious, devoid of all sense of humor, recent DC offerings.
Doom Patrol is bizarre, hilarious, and utterly absurd in the best way possible. Every episode is an adventure. Just when I thought things couldn't get any stranger, they jettisoned to a new level of absurdity with the episode "Sex Patrol", in which a sex demon crashes a party at Doom Manor, only for the "Sex-Men" (the agency that investigates sextraterrestial activity, of course) to come save the day.
The real thing that makes Doom Patrol so great is that despite all the craziness, they're still able to create characters with plenty of depth, real emotion, and relatable stories. There's an inherent sadness to this group of misfits, but instead of weighing down the show, it makes the viewer want to root for them all the more.
Definitely give Doom Patrol a shot, you won't be disappointed!!
