Apparently Aaron sold the rights to Sony.and they wanted three more seasons. And They wanted more episodes faster than Aaron could write!
I say Jerome's in the house Watch ya mouth?
Kinda sad how a show that could have potentially been one of the greatest cartoons of all-time was repeatedly thrown through the wringer and died with no grace.
"Long live your idols, may they never be your rivals"
If AM couldn't handle rapid supply-and-demand, then Sony should have hired more staff writers to assist him. Not every episode needed to be an idea fresh off the top of his head.
It's a shame because, despite it's lackluster last two seasons, Boondocks a great show that IMO had much more life than it ended with. Sad that such a great show had such a haphazard production pace that ultimately led to its demise.

No McGruder was the defining factor there. I did like the Siri episode, but it felt like the writers were more interested in finding new ways to torture Robert, at the expense of the rest of the cast.

And was it me or did they pull a Lisa Simpsons with Huey and turn him from "Voice Of Reason" to "Spoiler of all the Fun" in this season.
McGruder left and was completely unprofessional about it. The show would of course suffer a bit without him, but it still had the rest of the writing staff on it. Guess it's like a slightly dirtier version of Community's Season 4. Every show gets a gas leak season.

yeah...
I'm not shocked that season four was crap because season three was crap. McGruder checked out before he left officially, so we got a bunch of wack ass movie parodies.

I did not catch a single episode of Season 4. Am I doing myself a favor?
You're really not missing much. Half the season is dedicated towards a storyline of the Freeman family becoming slaves, which was unsatisfying. The other portions felt like retreads of earlier season stuff that wasn't really funny.
Yeah, a fan-board is going to give us all the details of what actually happened as opposed to someone who, you know, actually worked on the programme.
Most every other name that took the writer credit during series four was someone you'd see as a producer or whatever. As someone in there said, yeah, he sort of went downwards in series three... he also was hospitalised for exhaustion, and his heart probably wasn't in it. Fulfilling contract obligations is a bitch. It still covered some grounds in social and political satire that weren't done in series one and two, and still had some of its funniest material, so I think that it was somewhat a success.
Series four had "The New Black," and that was about it.
And y'all n!ggas are gay!
