“Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law” (2000)

Ok this show has been out there for a while - but I never watched it. A friend of mine kept making references to it - so i decided I should give it a shot.

First of all - this is another Adult Swim 15 minute show. I love them just because you can enjoy then and then move on.

Second of all - apparently the entire animation is done in flash to get the style right - it looks great.
Please be prepared for humor that is in no way approriate for childen - it is in “Adult Swim” for a reason.

Basically this show is a lot like the comic book “Damage INC”. In “Damage INC”, the story followed a special construction company that handled clean up after super heros battle it out in the city.

In this case - Harvey was once a super hero and now he’s a lawyer. In the last episode he was sued by a villan he defeated in the 60s for emotional damage.

There are tons of super hero references - and it is funny to have them redo classic Hanna-Barbarah cartoon characters.

Bottom Line: I think it’s pretty funny - plus at only 15minutes - you can figure out pretty quickly if it is for you.
