HARLEY QUINN SEASON 4 REVIEW
As the old saying goes, people need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy. Nothing more dramatic than taking the next step in your relationship and having a severe career change! Light up the signal but not for Batman. Bruce is on a Blackgate sabbatical and Harley Quinn (Kaley Cuoco)is freshly off of thwarting a plant zombie apocalypse. Now she’s spelunking down the bat hole to help Dick Grayson (Harvey Guillén) set up a best of thiqq cake instagram, nurturing the bastard boy wonder Damian Wayne (Jacob Tremblay), and pursuing a bracelet-worthy besty friendship with Barbara Gordon (Briana Cuoco). Meanwhile, Poison Ivy (Lake Bell) is spreading her roots and sending her vines up the corporate ladder at the Legion of Doom. With her brand spanking new and trending Social Conscious Crime program, she’ll butt heads with super villain big dog Lex Luthor (Giancarlo Esposito), set up meetings through crass and abrasive secretary Nora (Rachel Dratch), and become the bitch boss that Gotham and the world deserves. Bradly, Jordan, Mike, and Matt toss the salad and shoot the shit over the season’s peaks and valleys and fawn over the best romantic and sexy relationship on television, Harley and Ivy. Then they explain the difference in activism and slacktivism when it comes to the show’s tremendous achievements in representation.

YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)
Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.
Mike J. McAllister (Screener Squad, Staff Writer, Head Video Editor)
Mike J. McAllister is a filmmaker, editor, writer and animator. He is also a film junkie, dog lover and Surge-aholic (Hi, Mike). He grew up in a small town in Western Pennsylvania, where he earned the reputation as the “human IMDb” and was on a first-name basis with every video store clerk in town. He later studied film in Pittsburgh. He has since written several unproduced screenplays and TV pilots. He has also produced a number of short films, some of which have appeared in festivals across the country. He is a ninja with Final Cut Pro and is armed with a mind full of mostly useless pop-culture trivia. He also enjoys animation, MST3K, classic video games and being the “music geek” among his friends (which really just means he buys vinyl and listens to music that doesn’t come from an anime soundtrack). He resides in Austin, Texas, and can be followed on the Instamagrams at @ohheyitsmikejm.
Matt Foster (Screener Squad)
Matt Foster is a stand up comic, podcaster, and movie critic currently living in the greater Salt Lake City area. His lifelong love of genre film began early, when he realized they freaked out his mom. He performs (epidemics permitting) regularly on Dungeons and Comedy, a DND live play with standup comedians, and is the slightly less mustache-y half of the Nighthawks Podcast, a cinema-centric discussion cohosted by Trevor T. Trujillo.
