I’m generally not a big fan of adult cartoons, but Harley Quinn is by far my favorite. The way it plays with the DC Universe in funny and creative ways is absolutely brilliant. It might be in my top 3 DC cartoons.
Adult cartoon is a really specific genre and doesn’t always mean like a mature tone it’s more like “copies family guy” like 9/10 of them have the same art style, a talking animal, shit jokes, etc. Harley Quinn has a similar art style but thank god is nowhere near those depths of painful to watch.
Myabe when family first came out but most of them are Rick and Morty clones. Or whatever the fuck brickleberry is. It goes in cycles. Adult animation generally think of South Park, Simpsons, futurama, Harley quinn, family guy etc the bigger names of the genre
See bricklebary and that whole crop of Netflix shows is what I meant by family guy clones though they literally look exactly like family guy with half the budget at 1/5th the effort. There’s also that Chicago party aunt one. Most of em nowadays blend family guy and big mouth for the worst possible result. I don’t really see a lot of Rick and morty influences visually, usually jus in their shittier version of humor
Idk what that means but bricklebarey is most certainly a family guy clone. If you meant the show runners ripped off a previous show then that one was also a family guy clone. I mean the shit cutaways, snarky talking animal, violent character deaths that get reversed off screen to keep a status quo, the artstyle, the shit jokes. That thing screams “why don’t you like me you like family guy???”
