Broken Base: Some fans prefer the first two seasons over the third for being more lighthearted instead of dramatic.
Les Yay:
- Harley and Ivy, obviously.
- There is also Episode 2, "Lap Bat", where Batgirl, having been turned into a cat, finds herself on Catwoman's lap and enjoys being petted. Les Yay level briefly shoots through the roof when she regains her normal form.
- In that same episode, after you interact with the mouse, you'll hear this:

Batgirl: [thinking] She's never this nice to me. Most of the time - ooooh. Oooooooohh yeeeah, right behind the ear. Scratch behind the ear. Behind the ear, woman!

Harley even says, "you're goin' legit, huh?" when she asks why Ivy's holding flowers and she says, "Batgirl."

Special Effect Failure: The first season had bad animation, but got better with the next two seasons.
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Sadly, they created Ms. Freeze just in time for the show to stop. However, considering she has the voice actress and pretty much the same features as Killer Frost in her Justice League appearances, it is easy to Wild Mass Guess it was the Start of Darkness for a fan favorite DCAU character that would not otherwise have an origin.
Values Dissonance: Even though it had a great portrayal of a trans woman, Batgirl misgendered her once with no consequences.
Values Resonance: While it came from the early 2000s, its positive portrayal of a transgender woman aged well.
Vindicated by History: After the release of the adult-oriented Harley Quinn cartoon (which is well-regarded in its own right), many DC fans looked back to this cartoon for keeping the original family-friendly tone of the character.
