Batman (Kevin Conroy) is a helpless captive until Harley Quinn (Arleen Sorkin) shows up to distract his captors with a demented torch song in this clip from the season two episode of Batman: The Animated Series, "Harlequinade." Watch now on HBO Max.
Batman: The Animated Series is the 1992 Fox Kids animated TV series based on the DC Comics character Batman.
The series represents a wildly-successful interpretation of Batman. Bruce Timm became a household name with his bold, noir-inspired animation style. The show was set in a stylized Gotham city and featured faithfully-executed refurbishment of the Dark Knight mythology that was simultaneously modern and classic.
Kevin Conroy's voice work as Batman is one of the favorites among fans, as is Mark Hamill's take on The Joker. The series is noteworthy on many levels, but especially for introducing the character of Harley Quinn (voiced by Arleen Sorkin) into the Batman mythology.
The show ran for three years and enjoyed many highlights, including four Emmy Awards.
