--------
In a recent conversation about the animated series "The Boondocks," Carl Jones consider the show's impact and some of the backlash it faced. The series, which premiered in 2005, is appreciated for its daring storylines and bold themes, such as an episode on the R. Kelly trial. The series also challenged societal norms with other episodes, like the introduction of a gay rapper character. However, the show also faced controversies and protests, such as critique over Martin Luther King Jr. using the N-word in an episode. Despite the backlash, the show, which was operated with minimal oversight, won a Peabody Award for its daring creativity. Even after more than a decade since its release, the show's impactful scenes are frequently shared on social media, illustrating its significant influence on pop culture. - Розваги

Boondocks is genius. One of my all time favorites.
@@drivenmad7676 dude I consider it one of the best things Charlie Murphy has ever worked on and I still can't decide this or The Chappelle Show is my favorite work he did the reason why season 4 dropped off
It was funny af when ghostface killa showed up as a spirit. Huey said “nigga you not even dead” 😂
@YungAtz top 5 for sure ⭐️
peace ✌️
"Tf is wrong with you Huey?" When they was tryna beat Stinkmeaner outta Tom 😂😂😂
@@reddsmoke904 lmfao 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now has never been a better time to bring Boondocks back. This really should have the same kind of rotation as South Park.
it's never coming back bruh, you gotta get over it
Can’t without grandad
@@CoreySpitz You should hear John Witherspoon's sons impression of him. He sounds just like him and he wanted to continue to play the role in his honour.
There was supposed to be a reboot but it got dropped because it was going to take to long to make. Gary Anthony Williams said he recorded lines for 8 episodes as ruckus before it was dropped.
no it wouldn't.
My old manager named his first born Riley after the character on the show. His wife probably still doesn't even know 🤣🤣🤣
R Kelly took that “Trapped in the House” idea seriously 😭
Nigga said 🤔
Bro 😂
😂damn
☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️😭😭😭😭😭😭
Dog😂😂😂😂😂
Boondocks will never get old, I love it
Facts!
It's a little overrated tho and I mean the first 3 seasons it's a good show but not one the best animated shows of all time
💯💯💯 Show was iconic
@raidernation2163 3:20 For it to be their FIRST show and they came out swinging like that... hands down like the original said, it's one of the best!!!
Reverend Rollo goodlove being based of Al sharpton and his grifting is fuckin hilarious 😂😂
I had a feeling. Especially since AL used to be big lol
Boondocks will forever be a legendary show being 11-12 years old staying up to catch the show on adult swim 😂 🔥
"Trapped in the House" WTF 😂😂🤣🤣I hit the floor
Lol I was like 😐
The MLK episode was the best. And if he was here today he would be angry at his people..
Yea if the govt didn’t kill him we would be in a better place than we are today
His last word was that he led our people into the fire why would he be mad at us?
@@Sapientia-in-senectute King's last words were to musician Ben Branch, who was scheduled to perform that night at a planned event. King said, "Ben, make sure you play 'Take My Hand, Precious Lord' in the meeting tonight. Play it real pretty."
No he wouldn't. Integration was the worst thing for our people. He understood this later.
@willieross3745 He was for it, Malcom X was against it. If MLK was still around Sharpton, Jackson and BLM wouldn't exist.
that episode was funny af 😂 that was the best they could portray him in that scene, shows how real he could be & can't keep up that "positive/we shall overcome" persona for long
He’s so respectful and stimulating. More boondocks interviews please!!!!
He is not lying. I just started going to comic-cons with my series and it's amazing to see the reception you get from people who rock with you.
For those who don’t know and are having questions Yes He voices Thugnificent in Boondocks
This show literally invented memes😂😂😂 The worst thing you could do was complain, or you were in an episode 😂😂
The Boondocks is the GREATEST animated show ever......HANDS DOWN!!
I am the stone that the builder refused 🎶
Box or bullets!
I watch that episode every Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Yeah but except for you definitely dont
😂😂😂
I post the clip every year 😂
I watch the speech every year on MLK day.
Me and my close homeboy use to go to school and talk about the episodes that came on 😂those was the days
The MLK bit was pure gold.
"IS THIS IT!? IS THIS WHAT I GOT ALL THOSE ASS WHOOPINGS FOR!?"
"Black entertainment television is the worst thing I have ever seen!"
I remember Boondocks being a black and white, political expose' comic strip in magazines and newspapers
If you think about it, The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad and South Park come on air dispite all the controversial stuff they put out, still comes on the air. The Boondocks got cancelled because of people don't like the show. I just don't understand why they cancelled the show.
It wasn't the same when Aaron left 😞 all the other shows you named have had changes over the years but they still have the original creator involved in some way, even if its just doing voices in seth mcfarlands case
Comic Con is definitely where an artist is gonna find out how important their work is to people.
Facts
Wow I didn’t know he got backlashed. Boondocks is the best. 😂 and still is.
Al & Jesse threw a hissy fit and Rosa Parks got offended. They tried to get the show pulled off the air. Boondocks response was the Rev. Goodlove episode Carl mentioned (with Ceelo Green).
Boondocks should come back, because there is a lot of material these days.
Vlad i love the slow camera turn as the person is talking. Nice touch.
Ive always wondered how DR. Martin Luther King would react to todays world, or even just the late nineties had he lived. Such a shame.
The pacing of the first season matched the comic strip so much
Rev Rollo Goodlove was an underrated character 😂😂
Damn he played Thugnificent i just realized it 😂
This got me crying 😂😂😂 facts tho
Bruh don't apologize. U made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂
Oh so the fight in the Banned BET Episode *WAS REAL!?* 😂😂😂
The laugh vlad did at the beginning of this video was the same one dat he had on the show 🤣🤣
😂
Man the amount of things the boondocks could touch on now today if they brought back
Man it would classic and hilarious
Boondocks is one of the all time greatest animated shows. The first 2 seasons are GOATED.
Watched Boondocks yesterday. Gonna watch it with my kids one day 😂
Rev GoodLove feat. Ceelo was hilarious
I sincerely love the show. Its really brilliant. And I enjoy it every time I watch it. To this day. Thank you guys!
TIL THIS DAY !!!
boondocks is the funniest cartoon ever!..they came up with some wild wild stuff that i'm still trying to figure out how it made on TV
The 2000s wasn’t a pussy time to be alive like now
Man i watch this shit to go to bed til this day. Some days i watch this shit like i never seen it . Classic
This! Ong I literally put boondocks on when I go to bed..its damn near a essential
With all the stuff going on with rappers the Boondocks deserves a comeback.. you’d have 3 seasons of content alone with all that’s happened since at least 2016 to now.
Boondocks was predicting the future like the Simpsons 😂😂
Yo I just noticed the pearl necklace! 😂😂😂
That speech he gave in the episode was golden. & The reaction the black americans had was just.... *Chefs kiss*
I loved the early 2000s adult swim shows “Adult Swim….All kids out of the pool!!”
Should definitely make more episodes
I wondwr how we can make that happwn
i never heard of this dude but glad he getting a interview. boondocks is one of my favorite shows of all time. brilliant social commentary. it show all different types of people in the black community which is brilliant. it something i fell on love with more as a adult then a kid. a kid i thought it was alright. thought huey was cool but as a adult you get the messages. and it just generally funny.. rkelly trial really call out everyone for letting him get away with it so long.. even others celebs worked with him until it became unpopular to do so. i was pretty young.. have anybody seen the pee tape? whole episode was funny and hilarious. edgy humor. that mlk episode i laugh whrn huey took the chair and beat that commenter ass. and mlk speech was something people needed to hear 🤷. even talk about the homophobia in hip hop was ahead of it time. and honestly to see openly gay rappers i never thought i see that 🤷. lil nas actually make decent music.. and then some episodes just was fun. i into anime and shit. so the episodes with the martial arts i really enjoyed
Folding chairs are a staple 🤣
erykah badu and this dude used to be in a relationship. she said he was a dude she was in actual love with.
Man Boondocks was Special! Seasons1-4 was some the best tv in history
I just hope Vlad brings up his Tubesteak character
Yo I was hoping at least one other comment brought up the great tube steak. I quote tube till this day
@@brucekessler2552 I ain't never succeeded at a mf thing! 🤣😂
I can't finish an interview without going back and watching the episodes he mentions 🤣🤣🤣
Bring it back
Greatest show of all time on cartoon network!
I am the stone that the building refused…
Can’t wait for him to ask the question on whether if it’s coming back or not.
The “BET” episode was the one that got them cancelled l😂
Yea this confirms I’m gonna rewatch all the episodes
That Jacket is too clean
Boondocks had a lot of truths to it’s narrative, especially when it comes to BET.
Huey slept on with his logic
"Trapped In The House" is crazy lol
0:19 that will be the opening on my debut album
Real ones remember when vlad interviewed Tubesteak 😂
Lmaoo i can’t believe that the fight was real
Solid ❤
Hold on that’s tubesteak!!
They need to ask about that unaired Charlie Brown styled pilot.
I always felt the folded chair came from 50 cents concert
MLK was portrayed in one episode as using the n-word but uncle ruckus character was a regular stand-in for anti-black racism
Montgomery Brall… but not the Source Awards ?
i feel like i will NEVER get insight on the creation of the super rumble mixshow web series, and that saddens me. it was my favorite, cuz thats where i first seen carl as well as slink johnson as black jesus.
Loved Boondocks, I'm old and from the late 1960's and 70's the counter culture and nothing's sacred like a " underground comic book"
I’m 31 years old I watched the boondocks till this day over and over again laughed like I haven’t never watched it before man that was my show “nigga you gay” 😂🤣😂💜❤️❤️💜
That’s a classic story about Al Sharpton.😂
I remember the backlash of this episode
Vlad mentioning the Gump incident like 50 Cent ain’t catch a chair on stage and slung that mf back 😂😂 Chairs been a secret art of niggas for a good minute. That and tables
"Trapped In The House" would've been hilarious
lol who tf has a rain forest in their home?
We need a boondocks movie
Damn… his face got serious talking about gangstalicious 🤨
😂😂😂😂
i love the boondocks i remember when the 1st episode trailer came out i was in middle school
