'Boondocks' in production for third season
Show was on two-year hiatus in wake of its Adult Swim run
By STUART LEVINE
After nearly a two-year hiatus, the animated series "The Boondocks" is
returning for a third season.
According to creator Aaron McGruder's Twitter feed, the show is
currently in production and set to air sometime in early 2010. No
network has been announced, but the Sony Television-produced skein was
most recently seen on Adult Swim.
Based on McGruder's cartoon strip, "The Boondocks" examines an African-
American family that has moved from Chicago to the suburbs outside
Washington, D.C., and quickly discovers the challenges of living in a
different culture.
Show, which received many favorable reviews, was often criticized for
use of its language and racial stereotypes. Fifteen episodes were
created for each of the two seasons with the most recent episode
airing in the spring of 2008.
In "Is that show *still* on news??!!" news. ;-)

Looks like Cartoon Network has found their animated 'According To Jim'.

No, that would be "Tim & Eric (Felate the Executives)".

Worst. Show. Ever.

. . . or perhaps. Best. Show. Ever.

Depending on the viewer, of course!

Seriously, such a "love it or hate it" show is Adult Swim's
bread-and-butter, the sort of thing they'll renew until they can renew
it no more!
