DAMN - I was kidding yesterday, but alrighty then.

1. I wasn’t a fan of the new art style ,it’s cool but it’s more anime ish not really Boondocks style

2.If they didn’t get J.D Whitherspoon AKA the only person who can replicate John Witherspoon’s voice it wasn’t going to be the same .

3.If Aaron Mcgruder didn’t write it ,it was bound to fail regardless

I'm assuming Jerry Springer was out of the question.

Re-watching Boondocks first time since original broadcast

Crying with laughter. It's glorious

But I'm also struck by how much I learned watching this and all the happy memories it's awakened in me from watching with my family back then. It's super nostalgic

Anyone else experience that watching Boondocks?

I guess she wasn't Available.

Throughout the show he does try to get rich quick schemes, suffers financial problems, and complains about wanting money or not having it. But being a war hero and civil rights legend, shouldn't he make a lot of money? Not to mention he lives in a big fancy house that was described by Nelly in the "Color of Ruckus" as a "fancy f*****g mansion".

... polarizing names/figures that came to mind. Thoughts?

im from uruguay and just started watching it like five days ago or so. I come to reddit to see wht people think and realize that all top post of all time are from last month.

dont you feel weird that everyone started at the same time??

I feel like im being fed this shit by some superior algorithm. Paranoic shit i know, but man, im tired of peeking up a show that i knew it existed for like an eternity and just when i decide "hey ill give it a watch" everyone does the same????

parallel to that, without any connection i just started listening to body count that talk about the same issues. Does someone experienced this exact combo?

im running out of coping mechanisms for this bullshit i might start believing in the matrix. Some real we live in a simulation type shit. this is not the first time something like this happens to me

That might be dumb enough to work...

For those who don't know - Ricki Lake used to be one of the most popular daytime exploitation talk shows.

Ruckus speaks with an accent feature that used to be very common in some accents in New York and New Orleans, but is now uncommon in its full-form, and it’s called a “curl-coil” merger. It’s when ‘er’ and ‘oi’ sounds in the middle of syllables are pronounced interchangeably and sometimes leads to the sounds being switched. Why does Ruckus speak with this feature? Did the script call for it, or did Gary Anthony Williams add it himself?

It's all about how you play the game.

As some already know, the FBI initiated a program in the 1950s known as COINTELPRO. This involved the FBI illegally targeting left-wing and black nationalist groups and activists in the United States. Tactics included sureveillance, infiltration, discrediting, humiliation, false imprisonment and assassination.

Notable targets included Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Huey P. Newton and Fred Hampton amongst countless others.

COINTELPRO always comes to mind when rewatching episodes like The Real and It's Goin' Down.

I just finished my first full watch through of the boondocks so i am looking for more shows to add to my watchlist. Are there any shows that are similar to the boondocks?
