DC's 'Doom Patrol' episode 3: The show mellows down in trippy imagery, but goes a wee bit overboard with the gore

'Doom Patrol' revolves around a team of misfit superheroes, who are now in search of their father figure, Niles Caulder aka the Chief, who's been unceremoniously kidnapped

We're now three episodes down in the series, and it seems to be getting more and more captivating with each passing episode. 'Doom Patrol' revolves around a team of misfit superheroes, who are now in search of their father figure, Niles Caulder aka the Chief, who's been unceremoniously kidnapped into another dimension by the weirdest villain the world's ever seen, Mr. Nobody.

The team must figure out how to get past their bickering before they can move on to bigger things like saving the Chief from Mr. Nobody's clutches. In order to make this immature teamwork, they need a leader, and that's precisely where Cyborg comes in.
