Production notes
This series is filled with biting social-political humor and pure comedy fun. "The Boondocks" features socially conscious 10-year-old Huey and his aspiring rap-star brother, 8-year-old Riley. Gruff coach potato "Grandad" Robert Freeman lays down the law with his constantly battling grandkids and tries to instill common-sense values in these wisecracking inner-city brothers suffering from culture shock in suburbia.
Based on the newspaper comic strip by Aaron McGruder.
Cartoon Network has ordered 15 episodes.
