I hope Harley Quinn herself doesn't have a love interest in this season. Hopefully with season two one may develop with Ivy, but I hope season one focuses on her break-up with the Joker, the aftermath of that, and her quest to be apart of the Legion of Doom. I just don't feel like a romantic subplot would be beneficial for the character with the context the show has created
What you said is basically the entirety of season 1. I totally agree with the fact that the first season focused more on Harleys break up with Joker cause it makes sense. It's confirmed that Ivy and Harley are going to fall in love in season 2. Because harley actually finally has time to think about someone else other then the Joker she's gonna realize that she has feelings for Ivy and Ivy is going to reciprocate those same feelings.
Ironically, most of the writers of Charlie’s Angels 2019 were men. It was just a bad movie, which you could see from the trailer. Even having Ariana Grande do the soundtrack couldn’t save it.
Not surprised at all DC has always been great with animated series and movies I wish they did the same with their live action movies but it is what it is! Plus it releases just a day before my birthday day Great present DC 👍👏
Sam Kulkarni Absolutely! It’s really a shame that the amazing writing and love the for the characters in their animated shows and movies do not carry over into the live action movies except for a few exceptions.
Japan when they do anime for adults: serious dramas about gambling, war, depression, government oppression, etc. America when they do animation for adults: *derranged comedy*
Honestly I think when it comes to DC. Movies aren’t the best format to tell DC stories. They’re very complex and long and so to cover that. I think a series would be best to really flesh out things that a 2 hour film can barley do. They should stick to pushing animated series’s & investing in them for better animated quality .. it’s their niche
OkayFloat Records DC’s animated movies are still critically acclaimed though, their entire animation unit is better than the live action one, they’ve proven they can fully flesh out stories in 2 hours, the trick is to follow in the MCU’s footsteps and connect the movies so well that they become a cinematic tv series.
I actually really don't want there to be a romantic relationship between quinn and poisen ivy in the first season. I ship them both and they're one of my favorite LGBTQ couple, but for season 1 I think it's much better to just have them as just friends. It would be nice to see a romantic relationship develop over the seasons, but if there was one in the first season, it would just feel too rushed.
Of course men can write good women and women can write good men. It bugs me when people claim that you need to be a woman to write women accurately. I mean, it can help, but it's far from essential. People are not that different, and everyone has the capacity to learn and empathise with people who are unlike them. Ability is much more important than what's between your legs when it comes to any writing gig.
Woman here. While I think this is true, I'll be honest and say that more often than nought, men are the ones who are better at writing the opposite gender. Women can, but men do it more convincingly. Idk, it's like men are often so scared of tapping into their feminine side and seeing things through a woman's perspective, but when they finally open up and do that, they're hella good.
I think partly it’s a “thing” because when you write the opposite gender badly, it’s REALLY bad but yeah if a writer is genuinely great, it doesn’t really matter.
Yeah, many authors/writers often are known for writing protagonists opposite their gender. From Miyazaki to JK Rowling. I will say, on more niche topics, it "can" help to be the same gender (writing about puberty or sexuality), but that's more the exception than the rule, and there are even exceptions to that exception.
Grace- "Oh, the Riddler was great. Especially in the first episode. The things they made him say." Me- "I ate an orange and shit out a seed!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This may just be my new favorite show on DC Universe. 😂😂😂
This will carry over to HBO Max a long with Titans and Doom Patrol! HBO MAX is gonna be so full of content it’s AMAZING 😍 I can’t wait for May 2020 I’m getting HBO Max in my birthday
I highly disagree with her opinion on Harley needing to be abused. The way she broke up with Joker was iconic and needed to happen, the message is clearly better in a way of showing you can over power your abuser and be your own person
"it's not there at all in this show" - Well yet anyway. The creators of the Harley Quinn show admitted that it's something they would like to explore if they got another season but wanted to focus the first on Harley Quinn getting over Joker and that toxic relationship before doing anything romatnically with Harley and Ivy so if there is a season 2 I'd expect it to be put there. And honestly having seen the first episode and really enjoyed it I get that this is a slow burn series in terms of those kind of emotions... which is weird considering how fast paced the violence and comedy can be but I like they actually do take the whole getting over abusive relaitonships kind of seriously or you know as seriously as you can in the DC Universe.
All of DC universe shows are good. Titans is getting better every episode. Doom Patrol is a masterpiece. Swamp thing was also one but unfortunate what happened to it. Still hope HBO Max picks it up though. But man I can't wait for the GL HBO Max series!
If JK Rowling can create a male character millions of boys and men can relate to, it shouldn't be surprising that men can write a relatable female character.
OMG!! I finally took a look at Harley Quinn and Grace and Campea's enthusiasm for the show is SO VERY WARRANTED! I laughed non-stop and MY GOODNESS the various inclusions from across the DCU are AMAZING! I absolutely ***LOVED*** everything they did with the QUEEN OF FABLES as it really captured the terrifying darkness from her first appearance in the League story. And there is even a superhero from the 90s League quarterly that I never thought I would ever see! Awesome stuff!
I've watched the first 2 episodes multiple times, and this is coming from someone who was not a Harley fan. This show is great. DC is making Fridays much watch for me
Kiteman and Ivy seem so out of nowhere. I've always suspect Ivy would hook up with swamp thing. Anyway I was planning on skipping this because it reminds me of Harley solo comic but you've convince me to give it a shot.
1) I’m glad u finally understand what a lot of us see in Harley’s story. 2) That’s really not fair to compare a cartoon to a live action w/ a totally diff target audience 3) it’s on DC universe- no ones gonna see it but us nerds who will watch both. ...and Harley and Ivy dont have to hook up in order to have a love affair
What's the problem with Ivy/Harley just having a ''sisterly love'' relationship? I honestly feel like that's more appropriate because the duo became famously known as Queens of Crime. A relationship blossomed because Harley was like Ana and Ivy was ironically like Elsa.
I saw the first episode and I agree, it was amazing. It's super smart and funny. I'm liking this version of Harley Quinn. I can't wait to see more of it. The only thing is I have to get use to all the gross-level gore. For animated show, I was surprised by how violent it was. None of the characters seemed fazed by the amount of guts flying around.
My brother introduced me to your channel via the Disney+ series of shows. I know this is an older video but my goodness you nailed the review of Season 1. Funny enough though, I wound up finding the DVD for Season 1 at Wal-Mart and thought, "okay, I like Harley, so, why not..." Do not regret that decision to this day, I got my brother into the show and yes, binging it is the way to go. I've already done that 3 times to season 1
I've been waiting for this review since it was announced. And the fact you like it gives me so much hope. Harley needed a win. Much love to you, Grace!
I find it hilarious that Grace cant seem to understand that two men can be really good friends. Cap and Buckley are like brothers I have no idea why she sees something else there.
I did get underlying hints throughout S1 that Harley and Ivy had deeper feelings for each other, but it is mostly in one line in a few episodes then they move on to the quest of the day.
I have to disagree a bit on the 'total' lack of romance between Harley and Ivy. It might not be romantic love yet, but even in the first three episodes Ivy tells she loves Harley at least two times. So ye, good if its friendship, good if the seed grows, no bad outcomes here.

This show is so much better than I ever thought it would be. I saw a few clips online and now I’m hooked. Kinda like The Boys - but maybe more fun.
