The Boondocks Review

     Right here we gots us a show that is truly dank as fuck. The Boondocks is a cartoon sitcom about the Freemans, and African-American family who moves from South Side Chicago to the fictional, primarily white suburb, Woodcrest. It is a satirical comedy, with humor revolving around race, social class, cultural blending. So far, I have watched the 1st season, but I definitely need to watch the other 2 because this is already becoming 1 of my favorite shows.
     This show airs on Adult Swim, however, it bears little resemblance to the referential ridiculousness of Robot Chicken or the brain melting terror humor of Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job! Instead, it offers clever insight into American culture, as well as well developed characters and great dialogue. This is exemplified by the contrast between the Freeman brothers, Huey, 10, and Riley, 8. Huey is an intellectual and very adult-like kid who admires revolutionary leaders and social justice activists. Riley loves gangsta rap and saying "nigga" a lot. The dynamic between the 2 is great and very real, and it adds to the show's social commentary.
     A neato fact about this show is that the episode "Return of the King" won a Peabody Award in 2006. A Peabody Award is a recognition of meritorious public service by TV and radio stations. The episode was about Huey's dream of Martin Luther King's return.
      Mr. Elkin if you're reading this right now holy shit seriously dawg fo realz you should watch this show, it's really fucking good. It's right there! Watch it!

Trigun Review

     Trigun is an anime for straight ballers only! For real! Can't fuck with it! It is about a hood rat named Vash the Stampede, a lone gunman with a $$60,000,000,000 (pronounced: double dollars) bounty on his head. He mobs around with his homies Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson, employees of Bernardelli Insurance Society, and a priest dawg named Nicholas Wolfwood, through the vast lands of Gunsmoke, a planet that resembles the old west.
     Before I say anything else, I have to say that I appreciate  that this show's soundtrack had some drum 'n' bass in it. It wasn't even that good, but it was there, and I like that. I don't hear shit like that on TV very much.
     What stood out about this show most to me was the style of the animation. It was much different than any other show I've watched. I don't really know how to describe it, but most anime these days have a fairly similar drawing style, with only slight variations. This one is very different, and pretty darn dank.
     This a dope ass show homeboiii, so I suggest you check it out. Here is a link to the first episode. Swoop swoop. SwOoP sWoOp
