Laugh out loud funny for me. And that's rare. I think my interest is waning in between seasons. They better make new ones ASAP.

Yes. One of the funniest indeed.

I think the Boondocks is not only highly entertaining, but important. I wish more people watched it. I love how they tackle issues, cultural, political, religious, etc., and I mean I love their style in tackling those issues. How they tackle the music industry with Thugnificent, and how it ends up ****tin on him, I love Uncle Ruckus (black) being a white supremacist including playing with Johnny Rebel... err "Jimmy Rebel" and how ...lol... heartwarming it was. I love the nigga moments episodes with Stinkmeaner. The Obama campaign, celebration, and 'betrayal'. Marijuana. I think Huey's fight scenes are epic, but they don't play it out by having him fight often. I love the animation. Anime basically. Or Japanese influenced. I highly enjoyed every episode of all of the seasons. Want more!

I like the Boondocks as well but the actually comic strip trumps the show on many levels they completely neutered Huey for the cartoon. They focus a bit more on the stuff that Riley gets into and Grandpa. Some people reference the Boondocks like that's what actually happens and what black people go through. Sure it's funny but I cringe when some of my friends refer to an episode like it's a fact and how they think it happens the same way in real life because it's their only connection to black culture.

^ I've watched MXC before. Pretty funny.

Paedantic Basterd · 07-09-2011, 09:27 PM

Thanks everybody. In the meantime, just started...

Surreal and hilarious.

^Saw a few clips of that here and there. Very, very strange. Nice to see Tamsin Greg in it though.

An incredibly dark, bizarre, comedy that I can't believe I just found out a few days ago (already on the 2nd season). I honestly cant think of anything else that gives me the chills as this show does. Maybe it's just me, but a lot of the time I feel like I'm torn between laughing and breaking down sobbing whilst watching this. I mean, you get so connected to the characters, and the next thing you know, you see them living through some of their darkest (or even final) hours.

I can't help but be enthused at the proposition of seeing the Curb Your Enthusiasm season premiere tonight. The last season ended in 2009.
