Harley Quinn Returns in January; Night Court Holiday Episode on NBC

Season five of the Max Original adult animated series Harley Quinn debuts with the first episode Thursday, January 16, followed by one new episode weekly through March 20 on Max. The fifth season of Harley Quinn finds Harley (Kaley Cuoco) and Ivy (Lake Bell) in a new location: Metropolis! – the home of all things Superman, Lois Lane, and the Daily Planet. Harley and Ivy discover that something sinister is at play and all is not what it seems. Looming threats include Lex Luthor and his sister, Lena Luthor, plus fan-favorite Brainiac. But of course, Harley’s crew of misfits and allies will join her on this irreverent journey that takes no prisoners in having fun in the DC sandbox.
Cast: Kaley Cuoco as Harley Quinn, Lake Bell as Poison Ivy, James Adomian as Bane, Diedrich Bader as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Ron Funches as King Shark, Stephen Fry as Brainiac, Natalie Morales as Lois Lane, JB Smoove as Frank the Plant, Alan Tudyk as Clayface & Joker, and Aisha Tyler as Lena Luthor.
The spirit of the season is on full display in the Night Court episode airing on Tuesday, December 17 at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT. Abby's holiday plans are derailed after a murder mystery performer causes chaos in the courthouse. Gurgs and Wyatt find themselves at odds over office etiquette.
Court is back in session! When the eternally optimistic judge Abby Stone (Melissa Rauch) takes the night shift in her father’s old courtroom, she presides over some of New York’s most unique and unusual cases – with an oddball cast of characters by her side. This includes former night court District Attorney Dan Fielding (John Larroquette), who now serves as the court’s public defender. Joe Lo Truglio and Andrew Daly make guest-starring appearances. Original episodes return in the new year beginning Tuesday, January 14 at 8:30 p.m.
