The show blends dark comedy with violence and gore, exploring themes of trauma, self-improvement, and feminism.

Great animation, very funny, made for adults and great voice acting.
Every episode so far had been a blast its really refreshing to see the bounds of animated super hero series being pushed.
There is lots of voilence, gore and adult theme'd content in this serie and i love it. This is how animated shows should be dc has another HOMERUN :)

Harley Quinn: The animated series, very much an adult show. She spends most of the time battling The Joker and other villains rather than Batman. She hangs out with Poison Ivy and gathers together a gang of sidekicks. No one is perfect in this production, very many human failings and hang-ups. Good fun. 8/10.
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.

I write this after watching the drivel that was the Harley Quinn movie "Birds of Prey". Where the live action was unable to articulate a story and relied solely on Margot Robbie to carry the entire film the animation steps up and shows them how it should be done.
Kaley Cuoco makes Harley come to life every bit as much as Margot does but here she's ably assisted by many other interesting characters, by scriptwriters who can tell a joke and heaven forbid an actual storyline too which is woven out across the entirety of the two series so far. It's funny, it makes you care for the characters and it appears that the best talent is working in animation.
I suspect the end product is often better in animation because it usually starts with someone who has a story to tell rather than an accountant with a formula film to churn out. I sincerely hope there's a third series because anyone cancelling this ought to be the ones in Arkham.
