The Boondocks

Anyone watch this show? I've only caught it playing latenight, on a TV in a club I go to. Even silent, it looks funny as hell.

Found DVDs to rent.
Riotously funny; up there with the best of South Park and The Simpsons. 😂

I don't know about that, man. But that show is really funny.

I love "the Boondocks". That theme song's nice, too.

When's season 2 gonna air?

Starts on June 30, or something like that.

Some episodes you can find on YouTube. The Episode "A Date With The Health Inspector", where 'W' and Gin Rummy recreate all the politics and conflict about Iraq in a variety store (just so they can get free beer) - genius. 😂

I love the show. Watch it everytime it's on.

I see Denys Cowan is a producer on the show. He was a good longtime artist for Marvel and DC comics - Power Man and Iron Fist, Black Panther, Deathlok, Batman, and a very long run on The Question. He also co-founded Milestone Media, with all those new black characters for DC.

Bought the DVDs of Season 1 last spring - well worth the money.

Now I see Season 2 is wrapping up on Adult Swim this month. I don't have cable, so I have to wait for the DVDs again. Anyone watching? Still funny?

Yeah it's okay, though imo it's not as funny as Season 1.

I need to catch up with season 2. I only watched the 1st ep. of it.

I don't like the theme song. It's a remix of seasons 1's theme song.

Just bought season 2 dvd set used! Great, great series. Ruckus' Reality Show episode was a riot!

That is how a lot of people feel. I like Season 2, but Season 1 was just perfect. I struggled to enjoy the first few episodes of Season 2. I like the fact that Riley and Huey grew up a little bit though.

Love the series, funny as hell, second only to the likes of South Park in terms of ingenuity IMO.

Also, for a comedy cartoon, the action/fight scenes are quite good. mmm

ZOMG I hated this shit.

Kill it... KILL IT!!

Yeah Huey's dream of the blind samurai, Riley vs Huey and Huey vs Ruckus were a few of my favorites and were very well done.

I think that McGruder is on the right path to making a great show that will last for a long time. He has the right blend of characters to keep the ignorant ones laughing at Riley and Rukus while he also keeps the intellectuals one with the ingenuity of Huey. Now I'm not saying that only ignorant people like Riley, hell he is my favorite character. Both of them are needed to survive. The show wouldn't be funny without the likes of Riley and Rukus, and it wouldn't be as clever and deep without Huey. Some watch only for the humor, others for the message in the episode and others for both.

Well thats my big view on Boondocks and I only got one last thing to say.

What the **** yall looking at?

The show also taught me the secret to dating.

"I sent that b!tch a smilie face. B!tches love smilie faces."

Hell yeah, I be texting my ass off!

The fights in this show kickass. But the comic strip itself I hear is better.

The one in which BET's CEO was trying to destroy all black men was the funniest by far.
