Everyone knows the Joker, but thankfully, his psychiatrist-turned-girlfriend Harley Quinn has gotten more play in recent years. Sure, Margot Robbie plays the character in projects like “Birds of Prey,” but Cuoco is Robbie’s animated counterpart, voicing the acid-tongued villainess in the Max original series “Harley Quinn.” After she spent years on network television, which is highly sanitized, it’s oddly refreshing to hear Cuoco spout out constant obscenities and watch her demolish her cartoon enemies in the most brutal, gory ways you can even imagine.

The best part of “Harley Quinn,” though, is that it’s an unabashedly feminist, queer story led by Harley and her now-girlfriend Poison Ivy, voiced by Lake Bell. The series kicks off with Harley finally leaving The Joker (Alan Tudyk, who provides a whole host of voices for the show) in her rearview mirror, realizing she’s more powerful without him and trying to get into the Injustice League. Eventually, Harley and Ivy get together, and their love story isn’t quite like anything else on television — and considering “Harley Quinn” is also produced by Yes, Norman, it’s clear that Cuoco’s creative control extends far beyond her voice talents, and she’s working to provide more representation on television.
