McGruder's a hack. Really, his stip is painfully unoriginal and unfunny, and he can't draw worth a damn (looks like a preteens manga doodles). Tom Tommorow is funnier and far more original even though he makes McGruder look balanced. Tommorow or Kyle Baker are far more deserving of a show than McCooter. Cartoon Network has been steadily going downhill, what with the insipid Robot Chicken, numerous Aqua Teen ripoffs, now this. They need to stop giving their friends shows and actually bring in some talent.
I can not believe what I am watching on the Cartoon Network! Boondocks just showed a scene in a mall where a kid shoots up Santa Claus!!!
The music is a rip off of Charlie Brown!
This is really sick!
I've seen several episodes of "The Boondocks" on Cartoon Network. Poorly animated, humorless PC racist, white guilt driven dreck. That consitently misses the target at every turn.
Every episode has featured Black on Black Violence. From fistfights to full blow bloodless shoot-outs with everything from Gansta side aimed pistols to M-16s and SPAS-12 shotguns, though no one dies.
One episode even featured the detailing of a "N*gga Moment", with the word repeated many times.
I've a feeling that "The Boondocks" will not be given another season in 2006.

I guess white people have no clue how to appreciate Boondocks. Where is your sense of humor? It is satirical humor. Boondocks takes hits at everyone and everything. So far the third season is great. I got into it when watching the episode about Obama. I was laughing so hard because it was referencing all of the people that vote without even truly knowing who or what they are voting for.
