    ITT: Shows that took you by surprise.

    The Boondocks. I figured it would be typical "hurr white people durr black people" comedy. And it sort of is, but it's intelligent about it.

    And what really sold me on the series is "The Passion of Reverend Ruckus", in which Huey struggles with his relationship with God. SPOILERS: At the climax of the episode, Huey stands on the hilltop he always goes to when he's feeling contemplative, and with tears in his eyes, falls to his knees and says, "I never prayed before. I don’t even know who I'm prayin’ to. Maybe I'm too young to know what the world is supposed to be. But it’s not supposed to be this. It can’t be this. So... please". At that moment a lightning bolt strikes Reverend Ruckus down and shuts down the power, saving his friend on death row just long enough for the mayor to call and pardon him.

    Poetry.

    Yeah I do agree that the Passion of Reverend Ruckus is the best episode in the entire series.

    "We make our own miracles" is such an amazing line.

    Actually it's just "durr black people". They make fun of white people maybe a couple times.

    Not really promoting religion. If anything I would say it's a stab at religion, or at least silly cult religions (i.e., all of them). But it's hopeful in its commentary, suggesting that there is some kind of higher force that watches over us and rewards the worthy. I don't really agree with it, but it's nice to think about it. It's nice to believe that if someone is honest and steadfast in their beliefs (i.e., the belief that someone on death row is innocent), then maybe God or whatever force there is can be convinced to interfere with the wrongs in our world and make them right.

    goddamn it i want a third season of this show. it wasn't always spot on, but it ALWAYS made me think about something. that should be rewarded with more episodes... that and we should tie mcgruder down so he doesn't keep FUCKING WANDERING OFF.

    I'm convinced that the creator of the Boondocks is a self-hating black person. He tries to disguise his commentary with the idea of "we can do better", but I think what he's really saying is "Damn, our race fails. I mean shit, look."

    This scene was one of the most insightful things I've ever seen.

    If I was black I'd be pretty annoyed with constantly having to live down the actions of the rest of my race.

    Sauce?

    Also I hope any third season is more like the first. Season 2 was too much THE RILEY SHOW.

    it gets tiring after a while. the problem with the whole situation is that it doesn't work the same for white people, so they get all bent out of shape about it.

    next time you watch the news and see a serial killer, try to think about if what he did actually reflected on you. even though he lives three states away and you have no idea who he is, the next day someone will inevitably come up to you and say "hey, you hear about that crazy white guy?"

    shit gets annoying, all i'm saying.

    I was also expecting a lot of black radicalism (see previews where Huey calls Reagen the Devil) but the show mostly directs its rage at lazy blacks while white people are mostly just responding to it by being opportunists.

    Quite insightful really. People who call it libtard propaganda haven't watched it.
