    You got to love Jamie Chung’s vocal performance as Dr. Quinzel/Harley Quinn and how she manages to make her interpretation of the character brand new and different from the other incarnations of Harley Quinn.
    Even it’s worth noting the differences with how her character is portrayed cause when she is a civilian under Dr. Quinzel she is bubbly and bouncy, but under her guise as Harley Quinn she is much darker, more sinister, and more serious, similar to how Bruce Wayne is portrayed as a regular kind civilian and under his guise as Batman he’s portrayed more serious. Even though she seemingly sacrificed herself to save Barbara Gordon (showing a human side to her), hopefully Dr. Quinzel/Harley makes a return in the next season or two cause the episode’s ending hints that she survived the fall.

      Her motivations are good or let's say at least understandable tho. Imagine being a psychiatrist for rich people and you have to listen to those self centered assholes stories the whole day, where of course they are always the victim and you realize you are not making any progress and those jerks probably won't ever change. That must be very frustrating. So now she's fed up and tries to FORCE them to change.
      Of course torture is still torture, but I'm saying compared to Penguin or Clayface she doesn't just want to wreak havoc for selfish reasons. She does have a point and when she returns in another season, I can see this making her dynamic with Barbara or even Batman very interesting.

It shows actual developments with the relationship between the characters, Bruce's introduction into unfamiliar territory like the supernatural, and Bruce avoiding deeper connections to avoid getting hurt makes it feel a little natural considering how affected he is from his parents' death.

    Harley and Batgirl being besties is so fun. I'm assuming there's precedent for this in the comics, because it also showed up in the Harley Quinn cartoon, where their actresses are also sisters. Also reminds me of how Babs was best friends with Poison Ivy pre-plantification in The Batman cartoon. Poor Babs! All of her girlfriends turn evil! Though I guess doomed friendships are par for the course if you're a DC character and your name is Barbara (looking at you, Cheetah!)

    You might be right about the secret Alfred's keeping, but I still think it's just that Batman is Bruce Wayne. A point to you though, is that if that was the case, Batman could've said something like "I already KNOW it". But it's also fine for Batman not to volunteer anything to the ghost.

She was literally hiding a military weapon in the guys of an umbrella and top pad. That was great. The next one was clay face wearing this version instead of his whole body being able to transform in and morph into just about anyone it’s simply his face so he can become just about anybody else and on top of that he is an actor so he knows how to perform. Absolutely fantastic.

    Best depiction of Harley in mainstream media. Every other time she's treated as a dumb, obnoxious stooge, and only there to give Joker someone to play off of. They always forget that she's a doctor, she earned her initials (and that she's a victim in the usual depictions). Batman straight up calls her an idiot sometimes. It's nice to see her being portrayed as intelligent and self motivated. And I appreciate that she doesn't turn on Barbara, she remains a loyal friend even after the truth comes out.
    Also, I was waiting for Hector to say his catchphrase for her, but he never did. Caped Crusader Harley? She could...

    Also, I like the re-alignment of some of the characters that we got used to in the original show because since this version is stepping away from the higher tech version of the original, but they want to keep certain characters so they adjust who they are in the show in particular Lucius fox. I like the fact that he is his lawyer and this particular case so he is much more involved in the storyline of Batman instead of being the he’s the one that comes up with the tack or in the original contact he’s the one that helped build the car and works on the car, but he’s not really that involved With anything else and the fact he is to Bruce Wayne than Batman that I like because it kind of gives more of a vehicle for Bruce Wayne then Batman they are slowly in what I am feeling. They are going to give a little more playtime to Bruce Wayne at some point then Batman.

    😮 guys. Guys.! so I only have episodes eight, nine, and 10 to go, but I can tell you this watching episode one through seven in my mind I have been slowly been reminded of the feeling that the original Batman animated series made me feel when I was younger. I was in my mid-20s when the show came out and I was fascinated because it was not Adam West animated cartoon style. It was a little more mature and obviously, so is this show but there’s just a certain field that Bruce Timm brings to his animated Batman that is unique for me and that is the feel I am getting from this. For me personally I feel like I am watching Batman the animated series series, but set in the style of the 40s and it is working for me. I am also, totally in with the reinterpretation of the classic characters because they are not for the heaviness the threat that the villains are to Batman as a matter fact, they for me are very much less cartoony and some aspects. They very much feel much more threatening than they did before.

Too many brightly-colored spandex outfits would clash with the show's look. I had _hoped_ Nolan's third movie would have given us a Robin and/or Oracle who worked as background agents in their civvies like Lucius Fox, and if they pop up in _Caped Crusader_ maybe I'll get my wish.

Ep5 is a great complement to the Catwoman Ep where Harley was introduced 🤌🏾 It's crazy to think she aimed to have Bruce as one of her Subs 👀 = 👌🏾 payoff!
    Never considered before this review whether or not Barbara may become Batgirl...figured she's too old in this version + is an established lawyer. But now I'm thinking 🤔🤔🤔
