* BillingDisplacement: Creator/AlanTudyk (Mr. Nobody) is billed above Creator/MattBomer (Larry Trainor) and Creator/BrendanFraser (Cliff Steele), but Bomer and Fraser actually play members of the eponymous Doom Patrol who appear in every episode, while Tudyk portrays the antagonist and is absent from a fair number of episodes. Fraser's character is also arguably the main protagonist of the series, despite being billed sixth. This primarily stems from Bomer and Fraser receiving AndStarring credits, with their lower billing intended to draw additional prominence to their names.

* FlipFlopOfGod: The series was originally conceived and announced as a ''Titans'' spin-off. However, some comments from actress April Bowlby and showrunner Jeremy Carver suggest that in fact the series is not set in the same continuity as ''Titans''. This would explain why some of the information and actions of the characters do not fit with what we saw from them in ''Titans''.

It would have been established that the team here is not the one that first appeared on ''Titans'', arriving from a different universe and helping in the battle against Trigon. The writers also wanted the finale to be Cyborg's debut but no actor had been cast in time so a mere mention was planned instead.

* PlayingAgainstType: A mild example, with the casting of Creator/BrendanFraser as Cliff Steele. Whilst Fraser is well-known for playing goofy, shouty, socially-awkward characters (which puts Cliff in his general wheelhouse), it can be a little jarring for his fans to find out that he's also easily the most ''foul-mouthed'' character in the show (apart from Jane, that is). Likewise, the flashbacks revealing Cliff's spiral of sex, drugs and alcohol can be a little surprising for those used to Fraser's usual "nice guy" image.
