10. The Voice Acting Is Very Well Casted

Right out the gate, let's talk about who is leading this show.

While Arleen Sorkin's high-pitched tones might be familiar with the animated series, and fans of the DCEU adored Margot Robbie's New York accent, it's The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco who brings a new flavour to the character of Harley. She has a fun and snarky tone, that nails every f-bomb and one-liner brilliantly.

Alongside Kaley is The Secret Life Of Pets' Lake Bell as the wonderfully deadpan Poison Ivy, and voice-acting aficionado Alan Tudyk, who plays multiple roles with such bravado you wouldn't know Joker and Clayface were voiced by the same person. But the ace up the show's sleeve has to be Arrested Development's very own Tony Hale, voicing the nasally misogynistic Doctor Psycho.

Voice acting can work two ways; either the actor in the recording booth just reads their lines and walks out, or they throw some emotion into their work. It's obvious from just a few of the conversations on the show that the cast are in the latter category.

A cast that knows what kind of show they're making will always gauge the tone better, and it comes out superbly in Harley Quinn as the hilarious lines are delivered.
