The Boondocks (2005–2014)
9/10
This show is funny and deep
28 April 2006
First, I must say the animation is superb! "The Boondocks" is kind of like "The Simpsons" for black people. The very first scene in the first episode is a to-be-classic. The Protagonist, Huey, is one of the most likable characters I've seen on TV for a long time. Like Lisa from "The Simpsons", He's the one who makes most sense in the show. His little Brother, Riley, is a crack up. The show concentrates mostly on black culture. It's critical of how afro-Americans treat each other and are extremely critical of gangster rap culture. It talks about how black people are threaded in courtrooms. Some episodes have a sad feeling to them, but the show still has "satirical humour" written all over it. Even if the shows is really talking to black people and not the white, I do think every one can enjoy it just the same.
