Cantankerous Robert "Granddad" Freeman is the legal guardian of his grandsons, 10-year-old revolutionary Huey and 8-year-old Riley, a product of contemporary rap culture. After moving the family from Chicago's South Side to the safety of suburban Woodcrest -- aka the boondocks -- Granddad hopes to ignore the grandkids and enjoy his golden years in peace. But the kids have different plans, torturing each other and provoking others in the neighborhood. No matter how wild they get, Huey and Riley are no match for the eccentric elderly man.

Eric Thurm AV Club This season has had very little as far as actual social commentary, real satire, or any of the insights you'd normally expect from this show. Rated: F Sep 9, 2019 Full Review Jimmy Aquino New York Magazine/Vulture The Boondocks is wrapping up its run by being more like Al Pacino as Al Pacino in Jack and Jill: a sad-looking shell of itself that sometimes recaptures its past spark but has seen better days. Sep 12, 2018 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Magazine/Vulture It's a zombie show, like the Dan Harmon-less fourth season of Community. Something's off. You can't figure out exactly what, but you can feel it. Apr 24, 2014 Full Review Kayla Cobb Decider From its gorgeous backgrounds and the jazz-like quality of its stories to its consistently on-point writing, this is one of those shows you'll throw on in the background one minute only to start obsessively watching the next. Dec 3, 2018 Full Review Laura Bradley Vanity Fair But Season 4's shaky landing was not disappointing enough to undo the show's legacy-which, by the way, includes a Peabody award for one particularly controversial episode.

Five Word R The falloff made me sad. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/30/24 Full Review Audience Member LOL, so funny to laugh at this ****ing bull****-less cartoon series!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review jizzy b The loss of the creator Aaron McGruder is noticeable. The show has lost what made it special. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/20/21 Full Review Audience Member First of all, instead of focusing on Huey freeman, the main character of the show, they focus on Robert Freemans adventures. Theres nothing intentionally wrong with this, but it's the fact that they use all of Roberts already tried out concepts instead of just making some new ones. The plots are really, really boring and just outright bland. Like them getting into slavery and being in huge debt: Not funny in the slightest. Speaking of plots and Robert Freemans adventures, they just couldn't resist bringing back stinkmeaner who was already killed twice. Almost making an exact clone of the season 1 fight. Particular gripes about specific episodes: One episode, being about Robert freeman being partner of Kim Kardashian has the main conflict of: Kim has a big butt, and then it explodes. This makes for a really bland episode. Slave episode is just not funny, and has nothing fun in it. Theres no real thrill in it. The main conflict is that they wanna escape from slavery. Also, I really didn't like the debt plot of this show. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst animated seasons of television I have ever seen. Not a single good or re watchable episode. A few meh episodes and a handful of utter garbage the worst of which being the episode "Granddad dates a Kardashian" which I utterly despised in every way. The episode has one single saving grace in one of its distasteful butt jokes but even that isn't an achievement. This season was an insult to the series creator Aaron Mcgruder who was not involved with this season from his own show and creative property. It is very easy to tell something is off as it tries to capture the magic of the first three seasons which aren't perfect but had some classic episodes I find myself re watching from time to time. Do not watch this season it is a giant waste of time. It is like a brownie your mother put vegetables in to trick you into eating healthier. Its a pretender and a fraud and should burn forever forgotten. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Again the same funny stupid and allows you to laugh over nothing..
