Harley Quinn

This is Harley Quinn done right. Hilarious and touching, smart, witty, sarcastic, exciting, gloriously gory, and a tremendous send-up of the whole supervillian / superhero genre. Even though these are superheroes and villains, they all have very real human flaws, and the creators have a LOT of fun making them (especially Batman, Bane and Commissioner Gordon) as ridiculous as possible. Harley and Ivy are bad villains, but they are good people. Their chemistry is electric. The Joker is at war with himself and Harley while determined to blow up the city. And the supporting cast, voiced by stellar actors, is just icing on the cake. This show is addictive and pure fun. You WILL enjoy it.

I am really no fan of new DC movies and shows these days but I admit and I am happy that I can state: Harley Quinn is a lot of fun to watch. We get everything an adult needs in a good show: cursing, blood, violence, bad but good humor and some likeable villain characters and some boring cardbox superheros. All in all: a very good and entertaining animation show for adults.

A fresh take on Gotham filled with flavour and fun. Every character has been given relatable human flaws and speak in conversational casual lending them so much more believability and dimension. The Ivy-Harley chemistry is natural and nothing about this show despite the occasional high fantasy shenanigan seems forced. Worked its way to my top animated shows of all time very quickly and I genuinely hope you love it too.

As a fan of the original introduction of the character in Batman: The Animated Series I always had a soft spot in my heart for Harley Quinn. Finding out about her relationship with Ivy made me even more happy years later. As a lifelong comic book reader I kept up with Harley and always loved when she would show up in Batman titles. The Margot Robbie version of the character certainly looks right (despite my love of her original costume much more so than other interpretations) but the script she was working with in "Suicide Squad" was laughable. The "New 52" version of Harley is hard to root for as she murders innocents on several occasions. But then this little gem of a show with an all-star cast, terrific animation, and just outright AMAZING writing comes out and makes me want more! I was so sad to realise that this is only a six episode season. I am chomping at the bit for more. I only hope that the comic book version of Harley has come around to reflect this version and isn't just DC's maniacally evil version of Deadpool. Well done, and keep it coming! The writers, cast, and animators on this show deserve a ton of praise!

Right, well I only just got on the "Harley Quinn" express here in 2022. I knew about this animated series, but just never opted to actually sit down and watch it, as I didn't really have much of an interest in the Harley Quinn character.

But then I sat down and watched a single episode, the first episode of season one, of course. And color me impressed, I was immediately hooked. And I sat through all three seasons that are available at this time in a very, very short time.

Yeah, this animated series from Justin Halpern, Dean Lorey and Patrick Schumacker totally blew me away. I was immediately caught up in the storyline, and as the show went on, the storyline got better and better.

The character gallery in "Harley Quinn" is nothing short of spectacular. There are so many wonderful characters in the show. And I must admit that after having sat through 3 seasons of "Harley Quinn", then I have become a fan of the DC comic character, so much that I will actually start reading the comic books. There are lots of nice cameo from DC characters as well, so there is something for the more seasoned DC fan veteran, but also for us newcomers.

With "Harley Quinn" being an animated series, then it is fairly dependent on having a good voice acting cast ensemble. And oh boy, does it ever? Yeah, they have hired some really great talents for bringing the characters to life on the screen here.

The art and animation in the series is good. I definitely like the art style here, and the colors are just great. There is so much to take in in each episode, that "Harley Quinn" can be watched more than once.

"Harley Quinn" was definitely an amazing surprise of a series, and this is something that I will continue to watch for as long as they keep putting out new episodes.

It should be noted that "Harley Quinn" has a fair amount of graphic violence, foul language and adult jokes throughout the series, which may not be suitable by just everyone.

My rating of "Harley Quinn" lands on an eight out of ten stars.
