I'm digging the tone of the trailer.

Animation is decent.

DC Universe has found its Harley Quinn.

The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco will voice the iconic title role and serve as an executive producer on the streaming service's forthcoming adult animated series Harley Quinn. The news broke Wednesday during the Titans world premiere event at New York Comic-Con, where DC Universe also unveiled a very meta teaser for the show, which you can watch above.

Over the course of the first season, we'll see her try to become the "best badass supervillain that there is," and she'll cross paths with Doctor Psycho, Batman, Lex Luthor, Wonder Woman, and of course, Poison Ivy.

"She just doesn't want to be Joker's girlfriend anymore," Cuoco said. "She wants to lead the pack, which I find very appropriate for this kind of day and age and vibe that we're in."

"That is an excellent way to make film and television."

*shifty eyes*

Heh. Sure. Poison Ivy is probably going to be the best part of this, based on this little promo piece.

What if Harley Quinn was deadpool. But I did laugh at her read of "that is an excellent way to make tv and film."

Oh man Bader as Batman. I'm in just for that.

Who's voicing Quinn though? Doesn't sound like Strong, but still sounds familiar.

Shiet. I didn't know that. Need to check that out!
its about as mission hill as she's taking a break living in brooklyn while she rents out apartments to wacky characters while trying to sort her life out. so mission hill with batman villains and zombies. it's the Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti run you'll want. they left the book a couple months ago, but wrote 45 or so issues.

I'm glad they dropped the accent for Harley.

It looks like it might be a decent show.

Looks okay but it's missing the charm of this art style :(

Also it's voiced by Kaley Cuoco Aka Penny!
Fun Fact: She's the second person from Big Bang Theory to voice Harley Quinn. Melissa Rauch voiced her as well in Batman and Harley Quinn Movie

I usually am not too keen on "Literally just DC Deadpool" Harley, but this got a smirk out of me. I'm cautiously optimistic here! Also glad to see Batman's Brave & the Bold VA back!

Is that Diedrich Bader as Batman? It's good to have him back if so.

Anyway, it looks pretty good. But given DC Animation, I'm not too surprised.

I mean, I WOULD watch this, but the DC Universe is apparently 7.99 a month?!?!

Why the hell would I pay that much for just DC content when that's probably gonna be about the same price as Disney's streming service which will have Marvel AND Star Wars AND Pixar AND Disney content?

Put this on Netflix or Hulu and I'll watch it.

it'll probably take awhile for them to get a footing with the comedy. i feel like they just need to take it down a notch or something. could be good
