Aaron McGruder's comic strip "The Boondocks" first appeared in 1996 on the pages of Diamondback, the School newspaper at the University of Maryland. McGruder attended U on M, graduating with an African -American degree in degree. "Boondocks" followed the life and experiences of a 10-year-old boy from Big City Chicago named Hui and his brother Riley, who should go live with his grandfather in the outskirts of Maryland.

"Boondocks" was claimed politically, refreshing on the funny pages. McGruder tried to join with several distribution unions, but too many of them opposed the open discussion of the racial and class topics.

Beatspoon died in 2019, and sounds like a new actor to be sought to serve as his replacement. Perhaps Bitterspoon's death slowed down production, and Warner Bros. had nowhere to wait. Before you start blaming David Zadlav of the cancellation, know that he has not become CEO of the WB by 2021. It seems that it was just bad luck and bad timing. Perhaps Bondox will return one day, continuing the legacy of One of the best shows of adult swimming. But not anytime soon.
