    John Witherspoon passed away suddenly in his home last night at the age of 77. We have lost a great one. We love you, John Witherspoon. Thank you for bringing to life the characters that you played in so many of our favorite stories. You have touched our hearts with your amazing comedic ability and I know we will still be quoting your famous phrases for years to come. Rest easy, Pops. You will be missed!

    It would be impossible for this show to fail. It had literally everything to succeed:
    Confident, brilliant and assured writing by Aaron MacGruder
    An *outstanding* voice cast directed by perhaps the greatest voice director in the business, Andrea Romano
    Primetime slot on Adult Swim
    It’s such a pity that both John Witherspoon and Andrea Romano can’t participate in the reboot. Witherspoon is sadly gone and Romano retired last year🙏🙏

    • @kendallrivers1119
      @kendallrivers1119 Год назад +1

      Welp the good thing is that the reboot was scrapped so now it doesn't have to go on without them. It just never would've worked. Other than John's passing and Andrea's retirement there's no way you could do Boondocks in this era. Folks are wayyyy too sensitive and the show would lose all its edge.
