Features: DVD
Once a third-rate superhero, Harvey Birdman is now a third-rate lawyer trying like hell to get by in a fancy law firm. It's not clear whether Harvey actually went to law school, but he definitely knows the things to say to sound like a lawyer. And he has a suit now, that's for sure.Running Time: 220 min.Format: DVD MOVIE
"...a loving and outrageous homage to the toons that warped our tiny minds as children..." MaryAnn Johanson, The Flick Filosopher
"Like Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Harvey Birdman: Attorney At Law repurposes a forgotten Hanna-Barbera cartoon hero..." Noel Murray, The Onion A.V. Club
Editor's Note
Before settling into the ATTORNEY AT LAW format, Harvey Birdman bounced around a few other shows, with appearances on BIRDMAN AND THE GALAXY TRIO and as potential host for COAST TO COAST before Space Ghost snuck in. (Both feature prominently on his resume). Harvey is one of the most popular characters spawned by the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim section. His career as a failed superhero over, Birdman tries his hand at law, with similarly mixed results. His clients include a wide range of characters from the Hanna-Barbera stable, all of whom come to Harvey despite his lack of credentials in the field of law. The show's cult following will be delighted to see this collection of episodes, and animation fans looking for an offbeat treat should look no further than HARVEY BIRDMAN: ATTORNEY AT LAW.

Unlike network programs Simpsons and Family Guy that have broad appeal, cable adult comedy animation tends to target a very specific audience. Either you get it or you don't. Although if you're in college and inebriated the odds are probably in your favor. Occasionally there's a show that is just down to earth enough to interest the mainstream, if only someone could tear them away from American Idol and plug their brains back in. One such series is Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law...
