if you like her using her psychiatrist phd you would really like the "fear state: harley quinn" comic it really abuses this characteristic of her!!!! and its psychiatric and not psychology btw because she did med school etc!!!
@@SonicMegaKing was that in Batman the animated series? I’m pretty sure she was actually studying in that show, which is the true Harley original canon ofc
I couldn’t agree more. This element here and how they do it fir the rest of the series definitely was wonderfully done and this episode is one of my absolute favourites of the series and of the whole story.👏🏻
@@youshouldbeconcerned Could just be me, season 2 didnt vibe well with me. Early season 1 was great, the last few eps of season 1 felt like season 2. Season 3 I love because it feels like the early season 1 humor and stuff I loved.
It is so amazing how they addressed trauma and PTSD very well in this episode. I feel really bad for Bruce. He shouldn't have to torture himself like this.
Harley being his future therapist is a nice twist on her joining the bat family . Batman is by far one of the most dangerous men in DC, the very thought of what he's willing to do if he snapped is terrifying. This is something no villain in Gotham wants to see other than the joker. Plus RIP the legend, Kevin Conroy.
I love how she called it several episodes back that Harley would become Bruce's therapist. It's a dynamic I really liked and wish would be explored more elsewhere. Hopefully we will see more of that in this series as well.
i know people are upset at how bruce became here but have to be honest this whole thing got me in tears, you just don't see bruce showing this much hidden emotion about his parents and how he blames himself everyday. i don't remember seeing a episode or even another show, showing this side to bruce and i do hope people don't think really ill of him doing this trauma can really fuck you up to the point your mind is just well reverse trauma. never want to rethink the same thing everyday just to make something that never ever gonna change, i do hope bruce heals he is human not just batman.
A lot of people really just want Bruce to be a tool. And having one of those people be his head writer for a while (Frank Miller) has done a lot of damage.
Harley Quinn is kinda parody of dc to be honest except for a few characters one of them is and is kinda my favorite as a written character batman he is human and he’s the Batman who snapped he kinda doesn’t care anymore and is the most broken he still lingers on about his parents death
That's why Batman's my favorite superhero, billionaire or not. The stoic, badass, crime-fighting persona is cool as hell, sure, but when he lets the mask slip and you see how human he is underneath, it really makes him shine as a character.
People are upset? I've seen overwhelming positivity to this take on Bruce Wayne. This is definitely the deepest take on Bruce Wayne in a show... it's incredibly sad, and nuanced, in comparison to most Bruce iterations. Batman always has development but Bruce... this is the most attached I've been to his character.
When you think about it, Bruce having a reverse repressed memory makes sense in more ways than one. Aside from the guilt and blaming himself for his parents death, that moment is the only thing BRUCE remembers, because after that moment all the memories made after that are BATMAN'S memories.
My entire family died while I was at a friends house seven years. I blamed myself for not being there and that was all I could think about. Making myself repress every memory but that one. I went to rehab to help my trauma and I'm slowly healing. So seeing bruce go the same thing I went through is amazing.
Oh, wow. I am so sorry to hear about your loss of your family. Being a survivor must be utterly overwhelming at times. I am glad to hear you’re seeking support. Shows that depict trauma and healing in informed and respectful ways are really important to me, too. I found generative somatics and my ragtag collection of chosen family when I first moved away from a traumatic context, and they gave me a totally new life. I would be an entirely different person otherwise. I hope you find love and beauty and more healing and purpose than you ever imagined possible in your life’s journey. And I am so sorry you have to know so much tragedy. 💜
I didn't watch ep6 of Arcane until after I finished s3 of Harley Quinn, so when Caitlyn asked, "What, you don't have parents?", it reminded me of young Bruce asking, "People pay for housing?"
Im surprised no one else seems to have said this, but it’s kinda poetic that his parents’ murderer was unmasked as Bruce since he blames himself for their deaths.
"Come on, Champ! Let's go watch our parents die! It's what we deserve." Love the mixed throwback to Burt Ward's 1966 version of the Robin, the aesthetic of the 90's animated series, and Heath Ledger's joker. That's a wild selection of flavors that worked really well together.
Ah, been waiting for this one. Just wanted to see you melt over Ivy taking care of Harley. With how wacky this show is, it's easy to forget how in love they are.
This episode is going to go down as one of the show's greatest. I also love the title- probably their most clever by far. Its so layered. Its a reference to two Batman movies. It makes fun of the fact that they keep redoing Batman's origin story again and again. And it references the fact that Batman can never move on from the moment of his origin- his parents' deaths.
Honestly, the way they allowed Harley to use her knowledge of psychology in this episode to finally help Bruce in someway, and also see who he truly is, it probably makes it one of the three episodes of the entire series, and for me definitely the best episodes of the whole story so far.
11:16 Note: When young Bruce said he's Batman, his shadow has his alter ego's silhoutte. I didn't notice this at first, but only when I rewatched it that I noticed.
Alternative story : HQ : You could make affordable housing. BW : I did. HQ : Really !? What's happen ? BW : We are in Gotham. HQ : What ? I don't...AHHH yes ! Corruption and stuff. BW : And the bombs. HQ : Ah yes I remember that too. Sorry. For my defence it was M. J's plan.
Thanks for the shoutout Elijah! I really appreciate it & you’re an incredible friend 💖😊 I’m definitely having a good time here in Australia 🇦🇺 Robbie 😃👊
"people going through trauma and blame themselves for it even though it's not their fault" I'm looking at you Luz, get some therapy from Harley or Sasha
I appreciate how this both addresses how bad Bruce’s untreated trauma actually is, while poking fun at how many times we’ve seen the Batman origin story over the years.
12:56 Arleen Sorkin originally inserted her natural Brooklyn accent, the added a skoch of Yiddish in her original voicing of Harley...hence the thick accent. I mentioned this because Arleen Sorkin passed away today, 8.27.23. She was only 67. 💐😢
Yeah dr psycho is back I didn’t expect that to happen and honestly I didn’t know tony hale voice’s cause honestly I was waiting for him to be in a R-rated show and drop F bombs lol 😂 😂😂
Nimona! I read it as an online webcomic before it was published in book form. Looking forward to it finally hitting Netflix after the Disney buyout of Fox seemed to have killed the project.
I mean when psycho was sarcastically asking if Bruce’s parents were killed, sure he was being a dick but idk if sympathy was even deserved there it was like over 2 decades ago he’s gotta move on
if you have time you should react to a Netflix series called warrior nun, trust me when i say it's right up alley and season 1 might a bit slow in the first 3 episodes but as you watch it the pacing actually picks and season 2 will melt your rainbow heart into a puddle between the main girls ava and beatrice
You probably should react to Epithet Erased. It’s a hilarious TH-cam Series. It only has 7 Episodes, but it has a novel coming up called Prison of Plastic.
7:05 AI research: "The idea of a reversed repressed memory is a logical fallacy. It's a complete inversion of the belief that people who were abused as children may have repressed memories of the abuse. This belief is based on the idea that people with certain issues, like depression, body image issues, or relationship issues, must have repressed memories of childhood abuse. However, this is a logical fallacy."
If someone told me in 2019, that this show : Will make me invest in Harley and Ivy love story. Will give me the best exploration of Batman character. Will have an awesome take on the Joker as a family man. I would have laught.
Hi Elijah! I sent you a letter and some art at the beginning of October. I hope it didn’t get lost in the mail or anything! It may just be taking some time to get to you.
Awww we're just gonna skip on Bruce actually praising someone else? It's such a throw away line but I love that he genuinely thought she looked good in the Robin costume....unless that's some thin veiled joke about how people used to think they were gay
*Btw, Elijah* - in case you didn't know, the co-creators of ARCANE (Christian Praeco Linke & Alex Yee) held a Q&A to tease at the upcoming Season 2 - and I think you'll like this one bit that could potentially be hinting at Vi & Caitlyn *Question:* Will there be a sex scene in Season 2? *Answer:* Ew! Gross, no! Maybe.
Soooo have you ever seen sander's sides? That is one of my favorite series. It is on TH-cam, free and I would love to see your reaction to my fav character. Hahaha :)
#lets_watch_she_ra Will/(when will)you make a reaction on "She-ra and the Princess of Power"? I mean it also known as "She-ra and the Lesbians of Power", like c'mon, u 100% should to watch it! #watch_she_ra
I love it when Harley puts her psychology Ph.D. to good use. It's a part of her character that hasn't really been explored much in other series.
Season 2 was kind of light in it too, nice to see it back with a vengeance here.
if you like her using her psychiatrist phd you would really like the "fear state: harley quinn" comic it really abuses this characteristic of her!!!! and its psychiatric and not psychology btw because she did med school etc!!!
That's because in early canon it was said that she slept her way to her degree rather than earning it legit. That aspect has been forgotten over time.

This episode is basically one gigantic love letter to Batman.
Even moreso now
I'm honestly not the biggest fan of season 3 but this was the best episode this season. Feels like the early two seasons.
Eww l don't like gay sorry too you

Batman is a character that I'm glad this show, despite being a comedy, is handling with respect, while also satirizing in good spirits.

One of my favorite things about this show is that they never forget that Harley is a doctor and a therapist under the sexy wacky hijinks.
"Come on, Champ! Let's go watch our parents die! It's what we deserve."
Love the mixed throwback to Burt Ward's 1966 version of the Robin, the aesthetic of the 90's animated series, and Heath Ledger's joker. That's a wild selection of flavors that worked really well together.
Loved all the callbacks and homages to the Batman films.
Batman begins
You know Elijah gonna be simpin HARD for Ivy next episode!🤣
Harley being a therapist are some of my favorite moments of the show.
I love it when Harley uses her psychology skills to help Bruce!!! He needs a lot of therapy!!!!
Fun fact Ivy and Harley did got married in the Injustice continuity. They even had an Elvis double officiate them.
Ah, been waiting for this one. Just wanted to see you melt over Ivy taking care of Harley. With how wacky this show is, it's easy to forget how in love they are.

Fun episode and RIP Kevin Conroy🙏💔🦇
Awesome reaction. One of my favorite episodes of the season. Luv all the different callbacks to the other Batman projects.
But for real tho, Bruce is basically trauma with legs, and Harley was and still is an excellent psychiatrist. They're a perfect match!
Thanks for the shoutout Elijah! I really appreciate it & you’re an incredible friend 💖😊 I’m definitely having a good time here in Australia 🇦🇺 Robbie 😃👊
RIP Kevin Conroy 😢
Best Batman to me
I liked it when Harley called Bruce out over affordable housing. It shows how much out of touch Mr. 1% is.
It was so great to see Dr. Psycho again!!! He's hilarious!! LOL!!!
new Harley v old Harley: everyone vs their 20's
6:56 me every time there's a new Batman
"I'm Batman." Followed by that sizable deposit in Mr. Elfman's bank account.
I have very mixed feelings on season 3 as a whole but despite that this is my favorite episode of the show
It’s the highlight of Season 3 by far.
I would LOVE to see you react to Warrior Nun! I have a feeling you’ll love the show!❤
After watching this video I realised that harley and ivy would be good parents
guys someone send elijah a copy of heartstopper, she'll love it
"people going through trauma and blame themselves for it even though it's not their fault"
I'm looking at you Luz, get some therapy from Harley or Sasha
harley is a good therapist glad this show shows that
*Elijah shows a pic of Psycho's VA*
OH!!! I recognise that guy, that's Emmett from Chuck!
I appreciate how this both addresses how bad Bruce’s untreated trauma actually is, while poking fun at how many times we’ve seen the Batman origin story over the years.
12:56 Arleen Sorkin originally inserted her natural Brooklyn accent, the added a skoch of Yiddish in her original voicing of Harley...hence the thick accent.
I mentioned this because Arleen Sorkin passed away today, 8.27.23. She was only 67. 💐😢
Yes! Harls! Excited for all the shows and games you have lined up!
That episode is one of my favorites of the series and of course, it is always fun watching along with you Elijah.
This is such an amazing episode!!!!
You should consider reacting to the Batman the Animated Series, episode Harley & Ivy, or Harley's Holiday. See were it all began.
Kinda feel like you gotta start with at least Mad Love if you're going to do that.
Notice the Batman shadow behind Young Bruce when he says he’s Batman! 😉
So happy you finally saw it!!!
I always love how Psycho says “f**king”.
Yeah dr psycho is back I didn’t expect that to happen and honestly I didn’t know tony hale voice’s cause honestly I was waiting for him to be in a R-rated show and drop F bombs lol 😂 😂😂
Nimona!
I read it as an online webcomic before it was published in book form.
Looking forward to it finally hitting Netflix after the Disney buyout of Fox seemed to have killed the project.
Things don’t always happen for a reason (believing that justifies the guilt trip) and Chaos just exists without reason or cause.
Harley: Holy sanitized Curse word
Me: I’m so using that from now on
Harley would maka a good mom.
I mean when psycho was sarcastically asking if Bruce’s parents were killed, sure he was being a dick but idk if sympathy was even deserved there it was like over 2 decades ago he’s gotta move on
It was also a dig at all of the Batman reboots having to redo his intro every single time.
@@LowbrowDeluxe That's exactly it. Having seen every single one of those reboots, this line made me laugh. As did the discussion of the mustache.
Kind of funny timing. Tim Allen is doing another Santa Claus movie soon. I had forgotten about those films until now.
I totally LOVE this episode!! I'm Batman hahahaha. And when Harley meets her past self it's epic!!
Great reaction! What a good episode!
0:02 Aww. A lady and her dog, is there not a greater love anywhere?
The cute lil' belly on that creature Ash drew!!! 😂😀Like a pug and a toad in one!

best episode of harley quinn in my opinion!
Nimona is a fav of mine! Love it!
I can't wait til you get to the current last-aired episode!
Harley and Ivy are so cute together!!!!!!!!!
Welcome back, Elijah! 😃
And the Justice League never even bet an eye on this.
it’s almost the same situation as luz
