Season 1 Review: Both Cuoco and Bell deliver gut-busting chuckles on silver platters while keeping up with the likes of Tony Hale, Ron Funches, Giancarlo Esposito, and Wanda Sykes as the devious Queen Of Fables. All of the familiar draws of DC animated hit are here—the snappy dialogue, the bold (and quasi-gruesome) action—but what makes this series uniquely appealing is that it’s a perfectly viable starting point for old and new fans alike.

Season 3 Review: By exploring the murkiness of who’s a hero and who’s a villain in the context of the anarchy that is Harley Quinn’s Gotham, while centering so much of the action around its core love story, the show hits a whole other level. Read full review

Season 3 Review: The way the show continues to surprise and delight audiences among the carnage and the crassness is an entirely unique charm that “Harley Quinn” can continue to boast. ... “Harley Quinn” transcends the conventions of the animated superhero series, adapting a personality as unflinching and unique as its heroine and namesake.

Season 4 Review: For all that Harley Quinn's latest season might be lacking, it still knows how to lean into its greatest strengths: guffaw-worthy jokes, cheeky references to Nightwing's best attributes, and glorious, unadulterated violence. Four seasons in, and there's no doubt about who these characters are and what they contribute to the greater DC universe, even if their current place in their own world is a little more uncertain.

Season 5 Review: Season 5 of Harley Quinn keeps the hilarity coming at a rapid-fire clip, concocts a whole host of new misadventures for its main duo – this time with Metropolis under threat – and expands on and strengthens Harley and Ivy’s love story in ways well worth shipping. Read full review

Season 1 Review: [Kaley Cuoco] breathes Harley into three-dimensional life by revealing a more vulnerable, damaged and insecure side of the villain. ... With snappy animation and a fleet pace to match, Harley Quinn is enlivened by its anything-goes approach. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The result of this very adult comedy (seriously, not for kids) feels very inside baseball -- skewed as it is toward the kind of fanboys who'll appreciate the way-inside jokes and savor the overall naughtiness. Read full review

Far and away the best comedy I have seen in 2019. Its biggest problem being that its only 30 minutes per episode.

Animation is as good as anything DC has produced to date. Sound is solid. Casting while seeming a little off given the pedigree of voice actors surrounding DC animated works, it makes sense as it helps to give this incarnation its own unique spin. Even the much complained about Kaley Cuoco does an outstanding job while even leaving an after taste of Arleen Sorkin's Jersey girl we all know and love.

That is where this show shines. While determined to be its own thing it has respect and even drops little Easter eggs here and there to tie it back to the history of the last quarter century of Batman and related media. From the comics, to cartoons to films it interconnects back with such simplicity and ease. The writing itself is as smart as it is smart mouthed.

So definitely the funniest show Ive seen in 2019, even compared to fan favorite things like Rick and Morty. I laughed out loud more in the first 5 minutes (of an episode that they chopped huge chunks of for trailers, mind you) during HQ than all of what I have at this season of R&M.

So why are you still reading this? Watch it and see for yourself.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Most of the characters were fine i guess Harley is as unlike able as ever Poison ivy is pretty good for the most part not always and Kite man is great so with that said you likely have a good idea on my feelings for the show with the best character on the show being cucked by the worst character on the show also the writing can be pretty bad sometimes as well and i don't mean the stuff i didn't like either i mean the cucking of Kite man was better written then most ntr hentai iv read but some stuff was just dumb like Mr Freeze's wife going from hating Harley and mourning her dead husband to parting with her and being a slut fully forgetting about her husband.… Expand
