In the 1990s, Cartoon Network decided to base new comedy shows on older characters (although in many cases, that simply meant creating a more or less original character sharing their basic name and appearance). Their earliest show of this style was Space Ghost Coast to Coast, where Birdman appeared in four episodes, voiced by Scott Finnell.
Birdman later got his own show, Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, now voiced by Gary Cole. In the show, Harvey is a defense attorney, and his clients are generally classic Hanna-Barbera characters given new roles ( Fred Flintstone appears, for example, as a mafia don, and Boo-Boo Bear is accused in one episode of being a mad bomber).
Harvey Birdman along with Space Ghost appeared in the background in multiple scenes of the Season 4 episode of The Powerpuff Girls titled "Members Only".
The Death of Harvey is the seventh and final episode of the fourth season and the final episode of the series. It is a sequel to the previous episode Juror in Court .
The episode begins with a brief recap of the previous episode in which Judge Mento k declared all 38 cases Harvey has litigated must be retried and that anyone jailed by their outcomes must be set free.

He also has large wings growing out of his back, genetically inherited from his father.

In an episode Yogi Bear reported to police that his friend Boo Boo sends booby-trapped boxes of chocolates and bouquets. Ranger Smith appears in the episode, but only in pictures, and not alive.

Harvey Birdman: Attorney General is a continuation of the animated television series Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, which was created by Michael Ouweleen and Erik Richter. In the original series Harvey Birdman served as an attorney for various Hanna-Barbera characters.
