For all the things I've heard about this show, I've heard the leads are the weakest link, so I'm not sure if it's a good example.
That's pretty narrow-minded.
If we just dismissed everything as being too weird most comic concepts wouldn't exist.

I don't see how the shows were trying to ape harley quinn.
By the time they were announced I don't even think harley had a trailer yet.
Off the wall and random doesn't necessarily mean it's some valuable contribution to creativity either. There are plenty of well-tested concepts and teams to put the hundreds and thousands of man-hours and millions of dollars into animating. Has Dazzler ever spent more than like 2 panels with Tigra? Ivy and Harley have been developed for years on the page, now, even having been lovers in some stories. And the Legion of Doom is riffing off of a popular cartoon from the 60's(and all the various other media representations of them over the years since). These characters are known to the general public at some level, and have decades of material to pull from(in addition to whatever else the writers feel like doing). None of that exists for Dazzler and Tigra.

Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
That argument would work if they aren't going ahead with the MODOK series of all things. And I don't even know who or what Hit Monkey is. A show about mutantdom's foremost celebrity pop-star teaming up with a tough and sexy tiger superheroine couldn't have been less random than those two concepts.
Going by the first post in this thread, these shows were announced on Feb 11 of last year, while the Harley teaser had come out way back on Oct 3, 2018.
Also, the first concept art looks inspired by Harley Quinn's first concept art, with Dazzler mimicking Ivy's annoyed demeanour (and she's even holding the same glass LOL) and Tigra being the Harley equivalent.
Get them receipts! Oof!

yes! these series' were 100000% a rebuke to DC. The fact that they're going ahead with MODOK...choices choices choices
Static was not known to the public.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were not known to the public.
Rocket Raccoon was not either.
Black Panther was not known to the public.
Green Arrow was not known to the public.
How did that work out?
The Amazing World of Gumball was a collection of JUNK that was previously rejected and is now a 6 season show.
The Simpsons were mini cartoons on Tracey Ulman Show.
The Big Bang Theory was rejected multiple times.
You don't know what works until you try it.
