The Truth is Back
April 5th, 2010 by david brothers | Tags: aaron mcgruder, cartoon, lesean thomas, the boondocksLeSean Thomas’s blog had the link of the day for me.
Remember Aaron McGruder’s The Boondocks? Heir apparent to Dave Chappelle’s The Chappelle Show and one of the most brutally funny shows on TV?
It’s back!
There’s just glimpses of things in here– Huey vs White Jesus, Stinkmeaner possessing Granddad (!), tons of anime/kung-fu/rap references, VladTV… this season is gonna be something serious.
Who linked me to this on Twitter? I love you madly.
That was me who linked it. I can’t wait, especially since it looks like theres a Kickball episode and YOU KNOW LeSean Thomas has read Peng!

You got all that from the dialogueless trailer?
I just saw it. While I’m sad this will be the final season, I’m sure McGruder will bring the funny once again. Here’s hoping that [as] doesn’t leave any episodes on the shelf, like they did with the two anti-BET eps last season.

Talk about using the power of the trailer to reignite the darkening embers of interest in a series.
Pre-trailer? I barely cared.
Post-trailer? Cain’t hardly wait.
Thanks for that.

by Niles Day April 6th, 2010 at 20:12 --replyWow. That looks amazing.
by Tucker Stone April 7th, 2010 at 06:21 --reply@Niles Day: All good things must come to an end, my friend. Be glad McGruder is able to give the show a graceful ending that will probably tie up all the loose ends. And who knows about the future?
by Lugh April 8th, 2010 at 14:40 --replyFuck me blind YES! ‘Bout damn time.
Wait.
Final season?
Shit.

Looks amazing. Cool fighting scenes. Plus, the kickball thing and Boogie Nights part look very intriguing. Can’t wait for more of Uncle Ruckus’ great rants.
