Done Patrol - Cliff Steele final moments - Such a beautiful ending

[@darkknight3326]

As heartbreaking as this scene was, it was nice to see cliff finally find peace. The touching part is cliff’s primary goal since season 2 has been to be there for Rory and while he doesn’t get to be there physically, his peek into the future showed that the car stays with Rory for his entire life, so in a bittersweet way part of cliff does get to be there for him just like he always wanted.

Very rarely do we get an actual ending to a super hero series and I’m glad it ended on a bittersweet note. Fits for the series. I was in tears seeing this and it goes to show how well written all the characters were.

[@Razer5542]

Same here, been a fan of the show since the very first episode.. Seeing them all go out on their own terms with cliff being the one that broke me was a great final touch, would've been cool if there was 1 more scene at the end where the entire cast did a thank you to everybody who watched the show.. Kinda like what they did after the ending of Supernatural.

[@A-Muse-U]

@@Razer5542 I think that would have been a little too cheesy. I think Cliff getting the last line of the series is fitting

[@Razer5542]

@@A-Muse-U Perhaps yeah, the way it was done now is more symbolic. Show starts off with Cliff and his problems and pretty much ends with cliff getting the good (And sad) ending at the same time.. That he redeemed himself, is with his family and got to see his kid grow up in a flash before passing away.. All 3 of them (Cliff/Larry/Rita) ended up getting a happy going or afterlife, even though Rita's death itself was a bit "off".

[@jordanvalencia9597]

I felt it was rushed, when they did half of the final season, to scrap plans, and rush the planned ending forward, as the Doom Patrol in the comics are suppose to die in the first run of the comics, I wanted to see this show continue, but all i can is curse David Zaslav for pulling the plug on a beloved show that was one of the most entertaining and will be emulated but never duplicated, the Doom Patrol.

[@Prinack27]

Leaving tons of WTF moments aside, this is hands down, one of DC's best series for me. It's like DC's X-Men with issues. Who knows that Brendan Fraser nailed his role as well as the ex-James Bonds like Timothy Dalton as Niles Caulders.

Best superhero series. Started and ended perfectly. We saw Cliff from the moment before he switched on to when he switched off and everything in-between.

[@ValorDucky]

As a new dad, this hit me so hard. I couldn't believe I was becoming a dad, like Rory. There's nothing more i want than being with my daughter and growing up with her. A chance that Cliff missed but had another chance with his grandson. I'm looking forward to the day that I have a grandchild. The cycle of life is absolutely precious. By the way, my daughter's name is Clara with middle name Jane. This was before I even knew what the show was about, so I found it a hilarious coincidence when I started binge watching a few weeks ago.

[@anthonysanchez5651]

Cliff was able to see his grandson grow up with visions of the future before he passed away. Some were good, but some were bad. Furthermore, Rory repeated the same mistake his dad made with his wife and kid. However, the most important point to remember is that even when the crappiest of things happen to us, especially by our own hand, it doesn’t mean it ends there. We can still make better choices to our best efforts. Including with the people close to us. The people we love. Thus, Rory was able to reconcile with his own daughter and meet his own granddaughter. Just like Cliff did. 😢😭❤

It made an absolute mockery of his whole character.

It gave them back their longevity: some spiritual concept that means you age prematurely without it. It doesn't make you immortal.
