  • We're back to talk the Harley Quinn animated series, a show that's a loving call back to the likes of Batman The Animated Series whilst also putting a unique spin on some iconic DC properties. Following the adventures of Harley, Poison Ivy, Clayface, Joker, Batman and more with the reintroduction of joke characters like Kite Man it balances small character moments with huge world ending scenarios. Anyways it's good but here's a video.

      or when he teamed up with Two Face and complained about not being on the poster Twin Face made and he told him he is the shadow behind his face...Bane was like 'I was born there but its not me' or something like that haha

      It was "Who played the most games in Gotham Stadium?" Bane said Dallas Cowboys, it was the Pittsburgh Steelers. Which was a reference to the fact they filmed the Gotham Stadium scenes at Heinz Field, the Steelers stadium.

      Actually it goes like this;
      Batman: Damian, I made you your favourite.
      Robin: You didn't make that. Alfred made that.
      Batman: I made him make it.
      Pedantic correction aside, I love that scene because I've never been in a relationship despite being 26 years old so hearing Batman say "I didn't have a nemesis until my late twenties" is kind of reassuring. The way they talk about it comes across more like they're talking about a lover - cue Batman and Joker gay fan fiction - instead of a mortal enemy.

      To quote a certain comment: "I now have a wonderful image in my head of Kano heading out for a relaxing night at the cinema, getting halfway through a Johnny Cage film, and then a familiar-looking character comes on saying "Sorry sport, some yobber's paying me a bundle to cut ya down under!" and Kano laughs and then thinks "Hang on..."" czcams.com/video/m_Hpv1NeV8w/video.html&lc=UgwmZ5usgf_WFcoxSZ54AaABAg

      Harley Quinn reminds me of Avatar: The Last Airbender in terms of it's writing quality. Of course the stories are very different but they're both very well written shows which give all the important characters time to shine. Avatar stumbled at the end with the Energy Bending deus ex machina and needed Legend of Korra to explain it, while Harley Quinn ruffled feathers with the "white man bad" joke in the first episode but for the most part, the writers did excellent work.

Actually this incarnation of Harley is my second favourite, after Arleen Sorkin. I originally wanted Hynden Walch to voice Harley in this series - she's underrated and doesn't get the attention she deserves because Tara Strong's been the go-to Harley since Arleen retired - but now I'm glad they chose Kaley Cuoco.

    The Harley /Poison Ivy relationship has me in two minds. On the one hand, Hollywood struggles to depict intense female friendships like how we have "bromances" (there's not even a word for it)without it becoming a sexual relationship, as though two women loving each other can't happen without it becoming sexual. I know friends who love the crap out of each other, but it never being sexual for either of them. This happening even where one is gay (not saying it would be inevitable, just that if this were on a show, it would be). I think girls need to see powerful friendships like that growing up and it really needs to be shown way more frequently.
    However, on the other hand, the same can be said for the normalisation of same sex relationships, lesbians included, where there are only a few examples, notable because of their rarity. The show depicts Harley and Ivy's blossoming love in such a natural, engaging way that works perfectly. It leaves me leaning on the side of thinking that this is how something like this needs to be done.

The show is a really good look at girls being protagonists and shows just how cool and funny this can be. I also recommend Absolutely Fabulous. It's hilarious and hardly ever features men.

      Personally, I would've preferred if they had stayed friends and explored it that way. I've seen more than a few times where two female characters are close friends and all of a sudden "whoops, I guess they're lesbians" (Korra, Life is Strange, The Last of Us: Left Behind, She-Ra, etc). LGBT representation is all well and good, but I want to see genuine friendship between two women without having romantic or sexual undertones being portrayed with the same care and attention as so many bromances have been.

      @@antidave it's a weirdly common trope now to have the main female character revealed to be gay at the last minute, (or later, for Korra, from what I hear) - I think that's what was being complained about, given that all their examples that I knew did that.
      I assume that's not what you would want representation to look like?
      I mean the She-Ra one is especially annoying because the relationship was pretty clearly sisterly (they're essentially adopted as babies and grew up together), and the entire show was about the two having actually interesting internal and external motivations and conflicts on both sides that had nothing to do with wanting sex, then literally the last handful of minutes "they're gay and in a relationship now, the day is saved", so it's a complete "huh?".
      The others are *generally* less terrible, Last of Us doesn't have it come up at all and the reveal is in DLC which is entirely about the relationship, so that's fine, and it sounds like Harley Quinn is doing this right too, I really wish I could watch it in a reasonable way.

      That would make a lot more sense if they leaned into it the way they did in the first episode where they showed what really happened when Harley thought Joker proposed to her. We see that that's not what happened at all and he actually left her for dead and she was shattered. If they kept showing how wrong she is about the world, I'd have a lot more fun with all the parodies, but they seem to have abandoned that concept after the first episode. Unless they brought it back later, because I stopped watching it a long time ago. I'm going to go back and watch a couple more episodes, but if they don't convince me I'm done and never looking back.
      As for different versions of Batman, Superman, etc. those are usually done for a specific reason. Like what if Batman became a vampire or existed in the Victorian era or was a pirate. Or what if Kal-el were raised by the Waynes instead of the Kents. Unless it's just something bad like Adam West Batman, Super Friends, or The Batman. I don't mind this version of Harley Quinn; she's not even that different. It's the other characters that bother me.

    They did this show so incredibly well. Balancing humor, story, many characters, backstories etc. voice actors were so fabulous, art was great, arcs were great. Just so good

    I just watched my way through the 2 seasons of this over a week, having no prior knowledge of it, and really enjoyed it. And its really nice to see something like this where there are good female leads, and it touches on various issues without feeling pandering or forced, it seems to hit so many notes in a very natural way.

    I feel it’s closer to venture brothers with the spoofing along with the language and violence

    I finally watched, binged it all and it definitely benefits from aspects of venture bros. especially with the villain POV stories.

    I wasn’t aware of the series until your podcast episode. Thanks for the recommendation. Quite a treat.

    This show has great rewatch ability. I laughed so much as some of the clips in this and it reminded me that it’ll probably all never stop being funny

    when it started, I saw the first episode and got hooked immediately, so this is a good reference to promote and recommend the show, well done!

    Tudyk's Clayface seems to be an impression of Matt Berry's Steven Toast. Which I have no objections to haha

    I quite like how Harley breaks out the accent sometimes when talking to Joker

    • @tomnorton4277

      That's a nice detail. Kaley Cuoco eventually became my second favourite Harley voice actress, after Arleen Sorkin. As far as her character development is concerned, I actually like this Harley more than the BTAS Harley but Arleen's voice is so iconic that you can't top it. However, Kaley's Harley has a lot of heart and because she uses Arleen's accent sparingly, she isn't being restricted by it so she can show off her full vocal range.

    I watched this on your rec (just finished the last episode today) and thank you so much, I absolutely loved it. I actually cried a little at the closing scene? I'm a sucker for a swelling aria, whaddaya want?

  • @mickeymccoy6352

    something i liked about kaley cuoco's harley is she uses the thicker accent at times when she's talking to joker, like one time when she was mocking him (i forget the episode), like even harley quinn was putting on the accent in universe.
