"The Boondocks" on Adult Swim



Aaron McGruder has managed tick off a lot off people with his newspaper comic, The Boondocks. In a sense, that's quite a feat because the format is probably one of the most constricted creative mediums. The strip has provoked angry letters, conservative media diatribues and have even been pulled from various papers (most notably from the Washington Post when McGruder did an arc on Huey trying to find Condoleezza Rice a boyfriend). McGruder should have the chance to tick off a lot more people as he takes on television, which isn't nearly as constricted. Adult Swim in particular can be pretty out there, and boy is McGruder making use of that.
