I've seen the cartoon. I don't really find it all that funny but the quality of the animation is really good.

I have not read the comics but I have seen most of the episodes. I actually find this series highly amusing. The animation is nice too.

I find the comics funnier than the cartoon, but the cartoon does have its glory moments.

I haven't seen the cartoon, yet, but I've read a few of the comics online, and it was quite amusing. ^___^
The grandfather makes me laugh. :D

I've both read the strip and seen the show and must say that I prefer the strip over the cartoon. Not to say that the cartoon isn't great or anything.

Have any one of you heard that Boondocks the comic strip is going on a break until Oct.?
Here's a link of Scott Adams,creator of Dilbert, calling the Aaron McGruder lazy for doing this on his blog.

I don't why he did this but he did.:confused:

My Opinion? They're just testing how the series flows. Only to promote a new BETTER show.
That's right. Calvin & Hobbes baby!!

aS I said b4, it's really funny.
But for some of my friends (who are white..no offense to anyone) they ask me is it offensive to me....I just shruge and laugh T_T
It doesn't have anything to do w/ race, it's just comendy (Did I spell that right?...oh well):D

You're right it is comedy. If somethings funny, then its funny. Race has nothing to do with comedy.

i think its anime....based on eth fighting styles and the way some of it is drawn, you can tell that um....the creator is very much influenced by anime style.

Wouldn't call it greatest, but it's all right. It's funny.

The Boondocks is awesome. It has a humor that only select people are going to like, and that's ok, lots of shows are done up that way.
It works better animated than it did as a comic, altho the comic was awesome too.
I love this show because it's got lots of great jokes in it that we and sit around and laugh about for hours and relate it to something dumb someone we know did. It's just great... but not for everyone. ^^

i love that show. mah favorite episode is the r-kelly one:D

My favorite episode is the "Pimp My Ride" one, but man... the episode about White Heaven and White Jesus, hilarious. I can't wait for the dvds.

I like the boondocks alot!
I dare you to open a newspaper(current) and find a better comic strip.
Calvin and Hobbes is my all-time fav tho.

You know...I think the show is pretty clever. It's funny and the animation quality is excellent, but I think they could've done away with most of the profanity. If they had, then Fox would've probably picked it up, and it would've been seen by a lot of more viewers.
And I like Huey and Riley...but maybe the casting director shouldn't have hired Regina King to voice act them. It's unrealistic that kids from inner city Chicago would sound like...four year olds with a sore throat.
Oh, and does anyone know what happened to Huey and Riley's parents?

I've thought about that too...but McGruder never tells us what happened to them...

Exactly, we do need more cartoons like that in this country

Oh my God. I just saw the 'Gangstalicious' episode. It was hilarious. Riley goes to visit his favorite rapper in the hospital and he finds out that looks can be deceiving.

i've never read the comic strip, but i've only seen the first episode of the show and i thought it was pretty funny. however there was a very distubing part in the very beginning and anyone who has seen it uncut knows what i'm talking about.

That episode was funny and alittle sickening but i really thought the one
where their Grandad beats up the blind guy was the best.

I don't know were you heard that.
Aaron McGruder (the creator of the Boondocks) doesn't do the TMNT cartoon.

lesean thomas is the guy who does both turtles and boondocks.
he didn't create the characters, but it's fair to say that he has alot more to do with the cartoon than mcgruder does.

I can't stand that show...
The old show was better.

I like the show-Hewie doesn't like anything or anybody pretty much. I have to say that I was a little nervous on how they were going to handle some of the viewpoints of the characters.

Both the strip and the cartoon are awesome! Unfortunately, I don't think the strip is coming back... it's been on hiatus for far too long now...
