    Wanted to like this show more than I did. It has some decent jokes but I found most of them did not land.

    The first scene in the first episode opens with leader of a group of bad guys saying, "Gentlemen! My fellow whites! Let's raise a glass to this pyramid of money. The foundation of which was built upon our favorite pastime. F**king the poor!"

    I heard that Kaley Cuoco gives the voice to Harley and I gave the show a try.
    The first thing that came to my mind is that it's visually unappealing. Maybe it uses a too narrow range of colors, I don't know. I didn't like the looks of it.
    But even ignoring that: Wow, is this show bad. It wants to be funny. But it's not. I tries really hard to be funny which makes it so much worse.    I heard that Kaley Cuoco gives the voice to Harley and I gave the show a try.

    There's one word for it: Pain.
    It's painfully unfunny, painful to watch...Omg, I can't believe it.
    I couldn't stop shaking my head watching this.
    But to be fair, I only watched the first episode.Maybe it gets better, but I doubt it.

    On top of it, you see an average rating of over 80 by 'professional' critics.
    A group that's supposed to function as a corrective...it's over.
    The only thing they must think about is keeping their job by clapping to everything that appears to cool or woke to a small minority that litters social networks with their garbage.
    Unfathomable...omg. Humanity is doomed.
    What can I say more? And endless tirade or nothing at all. I choose the latter.
    And you know what, show-runners and critics?

    Excellent animated series that allows the nutty, psychotic character to flourish and have her own adventures.

    This is a great show that feels a lot like Archer or many of the great Adult Swim shows. Combining this with a feminist message about learning to stand on your own makes this show as winner.

    This new offering from the DCU is shaping itself up to be a fun ride, though it may not be everyone's cup of tea. Many may not accept the female driven show that makes fun of the universe that it lives within. But for those who can it's a fun and funny watch that doesn't take itself too seriously.

    According to the mouthbreathing failures that review bomb on here, everyone and everything should be fair game to poke fun at, except for white people.

    Funny, quick, adult, lots of inside jokes (Shark Repellent Bat Spray), sometimes unexpected, light, Adult-swim like, character design that resemble "Batman: The Animated Series", Frank the Plant is like Audrey II from Little Shop Of Horrors.
    It deserve a second season.
    Give it a try

    Really much better than I thought it would be. Surprisingly more adult, profane and violent in spots than I was expecting. Thought Kaley as the new voice would be a minus, but she does a good job. The supporting characters are good. I like the take on Poison Ivy. Making fun of the DC Universe is a bit tongue-in-cheek but it seems to work.

    Awesome show. Harley and Ivy have a great chemistry, and I enjoy the digs at some of the absurdities of comic books.
    I really don't get all those zero star reviews. I guess don't watch it if you think a plot about a woman leaving her abusive boyfriend, and trying to make it on her own, is social-justice gone mad, don't watch it, and maybe seek therapy?

    Funny whimsical take on Harley Quinn and the extended DC universe. It's really funny at times but falters when it tries to be emotional. It's very relevant with a referential humor that's quick on it's toes.

    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.

    [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.

    Harley Quinn is just a treat. It feels like visiting Gotham from her singularly-psycho perspective, with all the colorful action and doofy humor that entails.
