White Gangsters Wannabes, Children, Samuel L. Jackson, and Terrorists.

The last episode of the Boondocks TV Show was amazing. The animation is well done for the series, but the last episode had a hilarious plot and great dialogue.
Samuel L. Jackson guest voiced one of the characters and his dialogue was great. It was a combination of classic SLJ charactor dialogue from movies like Pulp Fiction mashed up with modern political mumbo-jumbo like Rumsfeld's Unknown Unknowns (also see here). It was twisted a bit more because his character on Boondocks was an ex-military white guy who'd been in Iraq, has corn-rows, talks like a gangster, but likes eggs sunny-side up with english muffins. It took me half the episode to realize it was Jackson, but that only made me like it all the more.
Basically, if you haven't seen the Boondocks cartoon you should. That is, if you find funny things that offend most other people. If you are like me then there are just too many things to like about the show. I especially the like the credits music. A heavy beat with light bouncy contrasting tune on top of it. The character are great in their zany own way. Huey, Riley (no relation to my brother, Grandpa, Uncle Ruckus, and co. The only part I don't like about the show is that once I own it on DVD and have kids I'll have to wait 15 years to show it to them. Not because of the bad language and situation themselves, but because other people would get mad at me for exposing "dangerous" material to them at a young age. It's hilarious! What'cha going to do? Morals are set by the majority, not the individual.
When you get tired of the PowerPuffGirls being to cute, switch to the Boondocks.

I have to admit it's a good show, but I'm still often afraid to laugh because the situational humor seems so wrong...
