    The Boondocks.

    The first episode of the Boondocks was on Adult Swim last night. I was somewhat apprehensive that the show would not have the same bite as the comic since it could not keep up with current events, but I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. The show is damn funny, and the art is fantastic.

    Who else caught it?

    Word the fuck up! That was great, I was pleasantly surprised.

    Hope they are all as good too. I am watching the episode I DVR'd last night as I am writing this.

    Some parts were great, some were just over-satirical.

    now if only they could get more good shows like this, and burn the guy who created "12 ounce mouse" at the stake, then draw and quarter the guy that said "yeah, lets put that on the air"

    yeah, after the creator came to my school for MLK day and proceded to call everyone in the auditorium racist, I stopped reading his comic. As such, I won't be watching the show.

    Seriously, I paid to hear a black guy talk about his black comic...and got called racist. And I loved his comic for the most part, because even if it was a little overboard at times, it was just so dead on most of the time. Ah well, nuts to him.

    That is really shitty. Sometimes the art is better than the artist. Look at most musicians / actors etc. Most deserve to be steam rolled.

    Throw in the people who made Squidbillies, Perfect Hair Forever, and Stoker and Hooch and you got yourself a deal.

    Two problems with the old shows:

    a) They were repeated too many times (lets show the same 12 episodes 2 times a night for 3 years) and thus are rendered no longer humorous.

    b) The new episodes sucked ass.
