- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- The Boondocks was an extremely popular show on Adult Swim, but it was not without its controversy. The show, which was created by Aaron McGruder, started as a webcomic, but McGruder immediately ran into trouble when he tried to turn it into a newspaper comic strip. Eventually, the mix of comedy and social commentary proved to be a big hit, and Adult Swim aired the show from 2005 to 2014. Even if you’re a big fan of the Freeman family, there might be a lot you don’t know about this show, so let’s take a look at the untold truth of The Boondocks.

Boondocks was too real for a lot of ppl.

Look at family guy 🤐...if boondocks was white we wouldn't have any problem

August 2010: Boondocks has an episode about a fast food restaurant running out of chicken.
August 2019: Popeyes runs out of chicken.
Boondocks: Fried Chicken Flu
Modern day: Corona virus
It's pretty common. I've worked various fast foods. All have run out of product more than a few times.
The show just tells the truth! Look what happened! They went crazy for that chicken sandwich!
And we’re quarantined
Man that was crazy it actually came true fr fr wow
Always thought it was crazy that a show was telling the truth on national TV
Lmao... It's dumb huh . A TV show air that speaks truth we are surprised that it has air time at all. We need more television shows like this animated or not
I think the show did a good job at poking fun at all sides and extremes. I enjoyed it even if it made fun of a point of view.
Ye especially the r Kelly episode
South park ?

I’m still patiently waiting on the new season. Rest In Peace Grandad
But we live to fight another day fam
Supposedly it was supposed to happen this month on HBO MAX. However I don't see any update, so I am just waiting.
Don’t worry, he’ll be back in about 35-45 min RIP

Aaron McGruder better be overseeing the reboot!! We definitely could tell when he left...the last season was not up to standards!
I believe he is and that everyone is coming back too! Everyone except John Witherspoon RIP. If you haven’t heard of his son he sounds just like him when he does his impression! He talked about the next season, his audition, and the production in detail.
That last season was trash, man. It wasn’t funny or warm. It was just mean. That’s it.

The Boondocks was one of the greatest of all time and we definitely need the show now in this political climate
they cant handle it nowadays
Honestly Boondocks was just trying to help us better ourselves and see the stupidity in some of our culture.
stupidity AND unhealed trauma...
Bushido Browns was self aware.
Absolutely love the Boondocks with it's original creator. The cast was also so full of personality and character as well. It'll he hard to see a reboot without them. Question I think about is after recent events here in 2020, is the world ready for boondocks again?
It isn't ready, but it's what we need
we need it so many topics to tackle it would be soo GOOOOOOOd
McGruder is running the Boondocks reboot.
@@soleio.7421 The thing is it's a different world now, unless netflix picks it up they're gonna censor the shit out of him to the point where it's just gonna be another adult catoon.
@@DsgSleazy Maybe, maybe not, you never know. South Park is doing pretty fine .
I feel like the world would be a better place if more people watched this now a days
Well people are finally waking up and possibly, just possibly are watching Boondocks
Obsessively read the comics when it first got syndicated in my teens, then obsessively watched the cartoon in my twenties. Love them both, but season 4 was eh.
Aaron McGruder is a visionary. We are so very blessed for his work, and I pray we see a Boondocks revival someday - with Aaron at the helm, and Regina resuming her roles, of course 🙏🏽
Aaron was not involved in season 4,that's why it sucked.
Apparently we're getting that reboot this year! With mcgruder at the helm

Not gonna watch it. It won't be the same.
Nope
This show made me who I am today
@Игорь Чернышов you obviously never get the message of this show.

More Boondocks coming! Thanks 4 letting me know. I wasn't too impressed with season 4 now I know it's probably down to the creator not being involved. Hold up damn, Grandad ain't with us anymore! R.I.P John. Maybe more Boondocks isn't required after all but damn I'll always love the first 3 seasons and love to Regina!
Maybe that’s why grandad cried after Riley painted that couple, maybe it was McGruder and his spouse, reminding grandad of two heartfelt people he kept close now gone
It's disappointing that people don't have a sense of humour. McGruder went after EVERYONE. It was genius
Not sure how a reboot will be without John Witherspoon.
Dude I swear regina king has played some of the coolest characters in tv. I had no clue she was the voice talent for the show!
im not even an american, but i found the series interesting.
Yall not slick Looper I saw at 5:18 that mouse cursor that was from you guys edit in this video😏😂
I love this series so much! To got the first 3 season on dvd but they gotta get this series on Blu-ray! I want the Boondocks in my collection in HD! Also, hopefully that reboot is still a thing 🙏
I’m just happy to get more Boondocks as long as Aaron is doing it. His absence was heavily felt.
"Huey, Riley & Granddad were not just property, They are my fictional bloodline relatives" That's deep, i'm sure a lot of artists of all kinds can relate to that. When you've spent so long on a project you created, it becomes a part of you. I know it sounds cliche but it's true.
"Huey! You really gonna let him do me like this?!"
This show is an integral part of my childhood, no doubt. I love this show soooo much 🤙🏾
Season 4 without Aaron Mcgrudder wasn’t the same
This show was always one of my top 3 shows in general. From beginning to end. This show was one of the most realistic while being completely crazy and insane.
All interesting stuff.
I wondered what happened to that show I found while watching GiTS on a late weekend night.
It was a show that I looked forward to each weekend.
damn.
Aaron mcgrudder is a legend
*I always & will forever LOVE THE BOONDOCKS!* They need to take family guy off and put this back on
The Boondocks is a black sitcom meets Japanese anime
To all my Boondocks Brothas and Sistas,
I just wish to confirm that when the fifth season comes out, which is going to be offensive to EVERYBODY, can we make sure we don't allow this sensitive left and right-wing BS to drag it down. WE SHALL AND WE WILL DEFEND THE CREATIVITY LICENSE OF THIS SHOW. WE NEED TO MAKE SURE SOMETHING OUT THERE IS TELLING IT HOW IT IS.
Yes I'm tired of these lame ass sensitive bitches bringing things down
The Whole show was based on Left wing politics 😂LITERALLY missed the point
Lmao sure that’s why it got pushed to this year
@@slimetastic6081 it wasn't just based on left-wing politics! Huey was always bashing on the establishment no matter left or right. Do you remember the episode where Obama won POTUS? That show is right down the fuckin middle. Anyone that knows Aaron McGruder in his work should know that! I take it you didn't read the comics either.
@lithnganalpb2395 Huey is a leftist and a lot of leftists dislike democrats. Especially ones like Obama who they considered too center-leaning. So, no. The show is not down the middle. You clearly missed the point.
The new seasons are news to me. That's Awesome!
Just started rewatching this and it’s aged like fine wine
Not gonna lie.... this is one of the best shows ever
Variation No 1 - *NYAGGA*
Thank you.

i was happy for the reboot but then i remembered it wont be the same granddad :(
It's figures are not going to talk about the underbelly of how they offered the son of John Witherspoon JD Witherspoon to pay tribute to the role that his father date of Granddad and yet they gave him the runaround and gave it to someone else. Even though they said JD was perfect for the role.
They need to make more much more
I remember the MLK episode. I remember how hard it hit. And years later i remember reality imitating art. Seeing McDonalds and others turning a dime off his image.
Years ahead of his time, under appreciated, and truly insightful. I really expected to run for years like South Park.
I believe in letting the dead people rest.
That is the episode young black kids in the hood today need to watch. I wish something like that would happen in real life to get through to them.
Aaron Mcgruder's vision will turn your world upside down, tear asunder your illusions and send the sanctuary of your own ignorance crashing down around you. 😎
Hearing that there will be more boondocks is probably the best news I’ve seen this year
I love the show so much I ask for the whole dvd collection for my birthday.
Bring it back please!😩
I haven't heard from Aaron Mcgruder in a while. Where is that guy?
@Timon Boyd what's your source? mcgruder wasn't involved in season 4 and there hasn't been any news of him being involved in the reboot
@Timon Boyd I guess but there's no interviews of him or anything
Seeing Riley without his braids is kinda dope
Game recognize game grandpa ,and you lookin kinda unfamiliar right now!- riley freeman
We are still waiting for it to come back in Australia 😭
Isn't the voice the same for the mashed videos? I love her✨🗿
The Boondocks is pure brilliance..
I absolutley loved this comic, I read it every issue in the Austin, Texas Statesmen. The cartoon was for lack of a better term, perfect.
The irony is that BET called the show harmful because it informed US about what's really happening! Uncle Ruckus was a clever idea for a character. He was too raw and truthful for "BET"! They rather have Tyler Perry reboots!
They are coming back. Oh a happy time with the craziest around me. 🙏🏽🥳
Can’t wait till the show comes back out, HBO max is getting some good shows
John Witherspoon was going to continue his role as grand dad until he passed away.
The boondocks told straight truth
This show really shows how people really think black and white and I love it if I was on a stranded island this would be a show I would have to have no lie
Wow this is very well researched. Very impressive.
sad that we never got those new episodes
Absolutely love this show, still watch it
Still one of the best tv shows to this day.
A reboot? It's probably not gonna feel the same anymore . . .
They can make it more comic book based like other franchises have done. There’s several characters from the comics that never made an appearance in the original show including Huey’s best friend Micheal.
@@jackdamenace13 that'd be interesting actually, but I'm scared they'll recast the voice actors . . . because, you know . . . 💔
it would be so cool to see a boondocks live action
What episode is the scene towards the end with grandad wearing a mask??
Season 4 episode 6
The Show was Really Good, I Hate to see it turn into a Reboot, & can't believe the creator is giving up his dream project that he created...
Well see if the reboot is better then The Original, but I doubt it.
When is it coming?
What was the show called from the clip wit snoop dog
One of my top 5 shows of all time for sure!
HBO or Netflix should just pick this show up already. It's popularity is simply through the roof!!
where can I find those new strips char had
The real reason he cancelled the show is because he got pressured into cancelling it.
I loved this show
wait wait wait wait wait. did she just say they released new episodes in 2020?
where can i find this
Boondocks was ahead of it's time. Sadly today it will most likely get cancelled by cancel culture
Aye, on God? Will there really be two new seasons?
We nerd Ruckus back!
This was narrated by the Character Sarah. Your voice totally gave it away 😋
Sucks Charlie Murphy and John Witherspoon not finna be in the reboot
Where can I watch this
I'm good with new episodes. Charlie Murphy AND Pops are resting in power. I couldn't bring myself to hear those characters voices without them. I love this series so much...
