First, what did YOU think of it?

Not my cup of tea, maybe I'd enjoy it more if I were black.
i like how it has the nerve to occasionally criticize nig nogs but it's still anti-white at heart
>>63079337
Mixed feels.
I'm white but the funniest parts of the show is when it's being really racist toward black people, and that's mostly involving scenes like Ruckus.
So I feel kind of uncomfortable watching the show because I really think it isn't meant for me, if that makes sense.

Amazing show with a great style. There are boring episodes that are pretty much 1-time watches or are skippable, but the early season episodes have great stuff.
The exorcism episode is probably my favorite.
good shit
Its as close to Richard Pryor and Chappelles show as anybody has come.
Fucking hilarious.
It was one of [as]'s stand out original programs until Aaron left. After that point the show lost its creative direction and resorted to hamhanded pop culture critique.
>watch half the episodes of season 4
>"wtf this is shit what's going on
>find out Aaron had no involvement in season 4
> see a once great series go out with a whimper in its final season
>mfw
my ex refused to watch this show because she said it was racist and i was like, yeah, that's the point. it's okay though, the creator is black and it's pretty hilarious
>mfw she's probably getting plowed by some black dude right now

Same reaction I had man, damn shame. The animation really took a turn in season 4 too, it's like family guy or any other seemingly "high budget" animate program where the only animation that goes on in any given scene is just either the hands or the mouth.the story of gangstalischious was my fav episode
that actual WISDOM in season 1

How do you miss the point that hard?

> The boondocks is racist
Was she a white supremacist? Because that's legit the only answer that makes sense following that statement.
>>63079290
Season 1 was fine, the rest is shit

It's incredibly anti black, dude. The Obama election episode is GODLY now on retrospect.
>>63081423
Fuck off, season 3 is great.

Suburban sheltered teen detected. It's racial comedy/satire. Huey was more defined by conspiracy, anti-corporate views than black shit. Riley was into black culture cause he thought it was cool, same with the white 'thugs'. The MLK episode was the epitome of the series: popular black culture has superseded any other considerations for black people, and in so doing hilarity has replaced beong concrete.
The obama episode was an example of this, like how all blacks thought life would be great because they thought the culture would come along for the ride and in so doing get them elevated or some shit. Nothing happened, and they were pissed/disappointed because of that. They have little substance and those who don't rely on the culture are looked down upon, like the lawyer and Uncle Ruckus. It also shows the negative aspects of the culture, like how Thugnificent's life was not stable and BET would fuck with your intelligence, or how being a playa is not so glamorous.
George Lopez does the same shit. His material pokes fun at the culture to make a point. Hell, many stand-up comedians do the same shit.
I think I call everyone nigga too much when I watch it. It's going to get me in trouble someday. Also, it's like South Park, every view point is stupid and taken to the extreme. Nigga.
