"Evolutionary War" is the seventh episode of Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law season three, and the twenty-seventh overall. It aired on September 4, 2005 on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block. It was written by Adam Pava, Michael Ouweleer, and Erik Richter, and directed by Richard Ferguson-Hull. The Hanna-Barbera character ridiculed in this episode is Captain Caveman.

Representing Captain Caveman and his son in court to prove evolution exists so it can be taught in the latter's class, Harvey questions his own place on the evolution line.

Detailed summary

Memorable quotes

Peter Potamus: Is that you, Birdman?
Harvey: Now is not a good time.
Peter Potamus: You got that thing I sent you?
Harvey: No. No, I didn't. I never get that thing you send me. I've never gotten that thing you sent me... and I'm beginning to wonder whether you ever once sent me anything. While I'm at it... If I had gotten that thing you sent me--ever--I doubt I'd be interested in what it said.


Peter Potamus: He got that thing I sent him!
