Product Description:
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: 154 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 053939695526

Of all the "re-imagining" wreaked upon the Hanna-Barbera animated catalog by Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programs, Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is probably their most deliriously creative effort. The series revives second-string '60s avian hero Birdman, and via a combination of old clips and new animation, recasts him as a crusading lawyer (voiced by Gary Cole) who defends the rights of other cartoon characters. That Harvey is pitted in the courtroom against old supervillain foes, who have followed his lead and become prosecutors and judges, is one problem--but even more challenging are the pickles his fellow Hanna-Barbera creations find themselves in: Harvey must clear Fred Flintstone of organized crime charges ("The Dabba Don," perhaps the first season's most clever episode); prove that Boo Boo is not the notorious bomber known as the "Unabooboo" ("Death by Chocolate"); and on a more personal note, contend with an addiction to self-tanning cream ("SPF"). Obviously, Harvey Birdman's humor isn't for every viewer, but for those with a taste for the offbeat, the frequently hilarious scripts (mostly by show creators Michael Ouweleen and Eric Richter) and terrific vocal performances by Cole, Stephen Colbert (as evil prosecutor Reducto) and John Michael Higgins's Judge Mentok the Mind-Taker (as well as guests like Michael McKean, Spongebob Squarepants' Tom Kenny, and Peter MacNicol) make the show a cracked delight.
Volume 1's two-disc set compiles all nine episodes of the first season and four from season 2 (the episodes are presented in order of production--"Blackwatch Plaid" is not included here); extras include deleted scenes, a faux movie trailer, and commentary by Ouweleen, Richter, and director Richard Ferguson-Hull on five episodes, with the option on "The Dabba Don" to also hear representatives from the network's legal and Standards and Practices departments comment on the validity of Harvey's legal decisions. --Paul Gaita

I got this on time, still in it's wrapper (which is how I expected it) and no damage done to the package.

I guess most people buying the DVD love the show but I had never seen the show and bought the first season for curiosity. Out of all the adult swim shows I have seen (robot chicken, aqua teen, metalocalypse, boondocks) this one was undeniably boring and uninteresting. Most of the time Harvey represents cartoon characters that are from the 70s, to whom I have no clue who they are. You might like it if your an older person.

What can say but this oure comedy at its best. It takes are old super hero and puts him in A law office where defends some of are old cartoon buddies. Like The Flinstones with a Sapranoes Spin or even better Johnny Quest with a Gay spin on it. They dig up all the greats from the past and put them in great court room situations. It just never ends whith all the great comedy that comes from every episode. I say it a must see and a must buy you will not be disapointed!

I've watched every episode of Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Arrested Development, Family Guy, Futurama, and Scrubs, and I have to say that this is by far the funniest of them all (which is not an insult to any of those shows, believe me, I LOVE each of those shows). I just cannot remember ever laughing as hard at any tv show as I did this one. It's kind of a shame that they couldn't keep it up for the subsequent seasons, which aren't terrible, they're just not up to the standard they set by season 1. If ... Read More

Who knew you could pack so many laughs into 15 minutes. Hanna Barbera might be rolling in their graves .... from laughter.
Irreverant, silly, goofy .... and sometimes just odd.
If you enjoyed the Hanna-Barbera characters from the 60s and 70s, you'll love whats become of there here, when they have to deal with Harvey Birdman.
