“These shoes were handmade by the youngest Chinese sweatshop labour we could find” Ed Wuncler is unbelievable 🤣🤣
😅
19:58 that was a line from the movie Blazing Saddles
Aaaah 😁🤙-M@
Huey is a bad mofo
The biggest take away from this episode is the metaphor of the relationship between the United States and China.
Yes.
Wuncler saying his great grandfather calling it jap baseball because he didnt know what country he was in and didnt care has me die laughing every time lmao
I spend about an hour and a half binge watching these folks reactions a day
Its cheerful energy really makes the day a lil better
Hey, thanks as always Codeine!! 🙏
(I could actually use some codeine from that person hitting me the other day 🤦♀️-Ash)
Curb ball 🏀💯
Probably one of my favorite episodes for alot of reasons.
-Uncle Ruckus as a referee🤣
-The Face Painted Guy on Huey’s team is voiced by Dante Basco who voiced Zuko in Avatar
-Huey going straight beast mode
Yes yes and YES! Hahaha, Huey is a straight beast at kickball and finally stepped up against others.
Thanks for watching with us :)
-Ash
Wait until you see the fundraiser episode 😅
@@BobbyMoore2-mp8wb thats my favorite one actually 😭
How about the Asian dude at the beginning, I’m pretty sure he’s voiced by monk gyatsu.
I love this episode so much, The capitalist angle, my favorite character Huey in the spotlight, the unity between our woodcrest characters, hell even Ruckus' love for the whiteman, the game and the physical comedy and lastly the heavy anime inspiration. All mixes into my favorite Huey episode
The Red Ball is one of my top favorite episodes. I always loved the anime style episodes the most. Another great reaction guys! 👍🏾
Here's a fun fact about this episode The Red Ball.
Cultural References:
Wuncler's ancestor is named Prescott Rothschild Wuncler, a reference to Prescott Bush and the Rothschild family.
In the episode, Ed Wuncler voices his complaint that one of the Wushung players is clearly overage due to his massive physical built.
However, Long-dou assures that he is only 12 years old and an aid behind him holds up a birth certificate to verify this. This is a reference to the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing and the controversy surrounding the ages of the Chinese gymnastics team members, particularly He Kexin.
Jingmei's face is painted with the Flag of Tibet.
Riley's "calls" a home run, a reference to Babe Ruth's called shot.
The crowd sings "America the Beautiful".
Trivia:
The scene at the end of the game is highly reminiscent of the famous anime series Dragon Ball.
This is the episode with the most injuries; it is also the only episode where Butch Magnus is injured.
This episode is the first since the pilot in which Ed Wuncler speaks directly to his grandson Ed Wuncler III.
Ms. Van Heusen, Butch, Gin Rummy and Cindy do not speak at any time in the episode.
The name Long-dou could be from Chinese 龍鬥 (lóngdòu, "dragon fight").
The city of Wushung is in Chinese 武雄 (Wǔxióng, "martial hero").
Many of the exaggerated super-speed and super-powered kickball moves, especially Huey's final kick and his catch, are influenced by the Chinese comedy movie Shaolin Soccer.
Uncle Ruckus, as referee, cites a racist line from Blazing Saddles when Huey knocks out the kicker at bat.
Despite the fact that the Woodcrest Team are declared the winners, the score remained tied at 8-8 after the final play.
Ming Long-dou is the daughter of Mr. Long-dou, which is not generally how Chinese names work. Almost all modern Chinese names have one syllable for the family name and two for the personal name, with the family name said first, as in "Mao Zedong." which is Uncle Ruckus called Mr. Long-dou "Chairman Mao". However mostly you don't know who Mao Zedong aka Chairman Mao is, Mao Zedong is a Chinese politician, Marxist theorist, military strategist, poet, and revolutionary who was the founder of the People's Republic of China (PRC). He led the country from its establishment in 1949 until his death in 1976, while also serving as the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party during that time. His theories, military strategies and policies are known as Maoism.
Dante Basco (best known for portraying Zuko in the Nickelodeon series Avatar: The Last Airbender) makes a cameo appearance as Jingmei in the episode.
This episode was inspired by the Anime Samuari Champloo "Baseball Blues" episode. I suggest you guys watch it to see the comparison. In fact, the creator of the boondocks tv series took some ideas for the shows story from the Samuari Champloo series.
For example, the season opening of the boondocks character homage is reminiscent to the Samurai Champloo opening of its characters.
Ruckus is a one-man riot! He's too much.😂😂😂😂😂
Ikr!?😁😂🤣 Thank you so much for watching with us 😊🙏-M@
Martial Arts have had a huge impact in the black community(black men) from the old kung-fu movies and blacksploitation films and now things like anime. There are a lot of callbacks in the show to some classic films.
RIP Ed Asner.
That giant Chinese guy that kicked the ball so hard it knocked down a tree had me dying....lol
@14:19 Charlie Brown kicking the football reference, followed by his patented ”Good Grief” being uttered by Granddad
Ahahaha! Thanks for pointing that out with the timestamp Corey 😁🫶-M@
The Jimmy Rebel is going be hard to watch even Adult Swim didn't want to air it on Tv
Yes it was hard and uncomfortable.
That big dude saying he’s 12 is a reference to the movie Benchwarmers with Rob Schneider. It’s pretty funny
One of my favorite episodes, love the Shaolin Soccer and Samurai Champloo references
I know I’ve said this before, but this is by far one of the BEST show intros… EVER! 💯
This episode is so anime 😊
The jimmy Rebel episode is such a good one glad your reacting to it
Yes it is and we're super excited to see what you guys think.
Thanks for watching with us Cristian :)
-Ash
The jimmy rebel episode was insane
One of my favourite episodes! Cant wait to watch.
PS the Jimmy Rebel episode might be a hard watch for you but its hilarious
Nvm you just said you watched it 😂😂😂
Yup sure did. Comes out at 10am!!
Great episode, the symbolism is crazy in this one.
Basically it’s a scenario of if China called all outstanding debt against USA. Then we play red ball game which symbolizes war or WWIII they reference this in episode with usage of “ultimate showdown” how episode is USA Vs China for all the stakes
Insane writing! ❤️
Thanks for the comment CutOff🙏-M@
I love that Wuncler said the INS “repossessed” the Dominican players, as if they are merchandise. Lol
🤦😅😂🙏-M@
Season 4 👇

I noticed that there was a part that was left out (conversation between China Girl and Huey)
The background music in that first scene with Huey and Ming is so dope. I love that beat. 🔥
This episode would be so dope as a series about kickball
That theme I always associate with Huey. It fits him perfectly.
fun fact the guy from tibet is voiced by the same person who voices prince zucko in avatar the last airbender
Oh yeah? That's cool. Thanks for sharing this with us 🫶🤙-M@

this episode reminds me of the Baseball episode in Samurai Champloo
Mr Long dough💵💵💵💵🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The announcer for both the basketball and dodgeball games was the uncle ruckus voice actor.
For real? That's awesome! He was also in malcom in the middle as the crippled kids dad
Love your reactions!! If you haven’t seen it already would love it if you guys reacted to The Inbetweeners, British classic!!
This is one of my favorite episodes of season 3. Huey was amazing😮
The moment i seen that tree fall in forest after he kicked it, i would've been like, "iight imm bout to head off this team"
No way he said cat flavored breath to him 🫨😂 21:47
"The same spark, that lights the dark, so that you can know your left from your right"
Not fists... Steps...
Great lyrics! 😁🙏-M@

@@WellHelloSilly You're Welcome 🤗 Guy's, Katy & Otis
"We dont quit because something is wrong we just keep doing the wrong thing until it turns out right"..... Sounds like the words of a rapist....lol
i actually remember curb ball but we didn't do it off the curb we did it off the side of buildings. it always confused me why it was called curb ball and i probably mixed it up and called it curve ball too lol. we would also call it "off the wall" and i would usually call it that because it was less confusing.
Yes!!! Finally another Friend that's played one of my favorite childhood games! Thank you so much for continuing to kick it with us and the interaction 🫶😁🙏-M@
Best episode
Uuuggghhh!!! When Huey first met the little Asian girl and agreed to play was one of my favorite scenes and it was edited out....😢
Well damn! 😟
Thanks for continuing to kick it with us Eric 😂🤙-M@
@@WellHelloSilly you guys are a riot and I've never been a big reaction video kinda Guy but Matt & Ashley, you guys have something special and it makes your viewers feel right at home. Seriously it's like let's grab a cold drink or whatever and sit down and watch TV with the family!! Keep it up 👍
Quote from Blazing Saddles
Ow WOW. I didn't pick up on that, but it's been a MINUTE since I've seen BS. Thanks for the comment Patricia 😁🙏-M@
Fun Video Idea: You guys should watch the behind the scenes of the cast voicing the characters 💯 it’s a dope insight and definitely some unexpected voices 😉 😂
Ok Bet! It's added to our list of things to peep out. Thanks for the recommendation Tex 😉👍-M@
What you know about curveball
I know it's awesome and reminds me of fun and simple times 😊-M@
This episode would be so dope as a series about kickball
We would call the game stoop ball instead of curb ball. I actually never heard it called that way
Ah Very cool though that we've technically played the same game growing up 😊
Thanks for watching and the comment Francisco 🙏-M@
This video has 1 of the greatest quotes ever. "We r American we don't quit just bcuz were wrong, we just keep doing the wrong thing it until it turns out right!!"

Please for the love of god tell me youre from cleveland!!!! Theres so many places that has never heard of curball and folks look at me like im crazy!! Have you heard of ittybounce?!!
Yo Price! We're from Columbus. It's so cool to meet and talk with someone about something as little as curbball. I haven't heard of ittybounce. Sounds like it might be a variation of what we called "first bounce fly" or something like that. A kid would throw the ball way up high and you had to let it bounce before catching it, but it cold only bounce once. Pretty fun, but certain balls worked better. So what's ittybounce? Thank you so much for this convo btw! We love it! 😊🙏
-M@
@WellHelloSilly ittybounce is literally the same thing but in baseball format...so we have a pitcher an ump and obviously a hitter...many folks in the outfield whoever catches it after one bounce gets to come up to bat...if no one catches it then the player remains at the bat if the ump catches it then you switch with them...very fun and different
Next episode will be wilddd
8:40 ZUKO
Zukos voice actor is in this I think from avatar the last air bender
Oooh 🤔-M@
Hey guys, Please make one short episode where you give your thoughts about what you thought before you watched the show and after. Then maybe on each characters, especially about your Uncle (No relations).
Ok bet, saved this idea and we'll look into. We did answer some questions during our live stream, but theres SOOOOO much to unpack from these episodes. Hell, YOU guys are the reason we know ANYTHING about this show. Like with history references, movie references, real life etc. It's genius and clearly we like it a lot! Now Black Dynamite is over on our Patreon and my GAWD. Kurtis the frog!? 😂

@@WellHelloSilly I recommended the show to my manager. Sorry to say this but he is white nerd and I am curious of how he would react after seeing your reactions.
I asked him to watch it with his wife.
I forgot all about curb ball 😂. I played that when I was younger 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Riiiiight! 🙌
The good ol days ☺️
Thanks for watching with us and the great comment 😁 🙏 -M@
😂😂😂 hahaha your wife likes how Riley moves on that intro 😅
Oh she freaking loves it! Good eye! Thanks for watching with us 😁🙏-M@
They cut a part out of here where huey drop the deflated ball on the last kicker crawling to the base
Aw damn. Well thank you for watching with us and the interaction 😁🙏-M@
If you two had watched Jacky Chan Adventures, Long Do is voiced by the same person who voiced Jacky's uncle in the show.
5:00 Wu Shan... damn, this predated COVID-19!! Did they predict?
Soon 1K subs!💯
prince zuko is the voice of the Vietnam guy (PAINTED FACE)
rellley is letfly
Ohh boy u guys are gonna be really uncomfortable with the jimmy rebel episode also amazing reactions as always 👍
Never heard of curve ball but it sounds fun.
Shout out to the curbball!!! Haven’t played that since I was a kid in Akron.
Yo yo!!! Heck yeah! Fellow Ohioan and "Curb Ball Enthusiast" 😂
Glad I'm not the only one. Thanks for watching with us and the interaction about a classic game! 🙏😁-M@
Awesome 😎 episode
Q: Matt& Ashley why it a scene missing from this episode?
There's a scene missing?? 💓-Ash
@@WellHelloSilly Gmorning ya'll yes maybe it's from my end but it's when Huey meets Ming for the first time it only shows Huey tell her yes he'll play but it doesn't show when she kick the ball at him and what he did when the ball got to him and how he returns it to her it just shows the ball at her feet and him agree to play
@@WellHelloSilly it's not a huge big scene more so a few seconds maybe a minute
If I remember correctly, there may have been music playing over the scene and YT blocked it unless we muted or trimmed out the scene. That's most likely what happened. You're definitely an OG fan to recognize the subtleties 👌🤙-M@
@@WellHelloSilly oh oky dang RUclips crazy rules lol and yes got a little OG in my birthday at the end of the month can do nothing for my birthday but I dang sure will be watching ya'll Boondocks episodes over and over again
Zuko
This is Ed I's first appearance in the show since Season 1.
While everyone seems to love this episode, I actually think it's pretty bad.
I mean, it's entertaining, funny at times, and it's cool to see Huey go beast mode, but I REALLY HATE Huey's characterization here. This guy has seen through facades, known about things he hasn't even seen himself, and even _predicted the future,_ and he fell for Ming's fake-ass sob story. He was (at least, by the words of Wuncler), willing to completely give his and everyone else's freedom away-- which is completely out of character-- for a lying little girl he probably wasn't ever gonna see again. And the fact that she looked back at Huey after telling her "story" before running away-- you already KNOW that bs wasn't true.
And the fact that everything was saved because Huey HAPPENED to understand Mandarin..
Also, this is more of a petty nitpick, but I didn't like the joke where Riley was going for a "home run" and he misses the ball every single time. It's a predictable yet funny joke the first time, but it's ridiculous that he misses _every time_ when people like Robert and Tom landed a kick the first time.
You are entitled to your opinion.😴
I have not played curveball in like 20+ years😂
Heeeey!! You know what I'm talking about! 🫶😁🤙-M@
@@WellHelloSilly hell yea! 😂 this bring back memories like PBS kids. If you throw the ball over a vehicle or something it’s extra points. kids in the neighborhood always played curveball. We also played tap ball. Toss the basketball back-and-forth to each other but your feet have to be off the ground when you toss it. If you drop the ball you’re out if you tap the ball with your feet on the ground you’re out.
@@craigwilliams7487 Sounds like we both have fond memories of a fun, technology FREE childhood 🫶😁
We called it "Curb Ball" (probably same principle) each person stands on opposite sides of the street and you have to bounce the ball off the curb ONLY (lol 😆) and catch it to get a point. Fun FUN days 🫶-M@
