‘The Boondocks’ Renewed For Season 4

Posted byBy ABS Contributor | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

The Boondocks has just received the go-ahead for a fourth season. That means Huey and Riley Freeman (who is voiced by actress Regina King), will soon be tearing up the boondocks once again.

King recently spoke on the possibility of The Boondocks getting a fourth season:

“I talked to Aaron and it looks like they’re working things out. I’m trying to be positive. But you know you say one thing and the next thing you know it just fell apart. But it looks strong like we’re coming back.”

Also returning is Granddad, who is played by John Witherspoon. Back in 2011, Witherspoon mentioned in an interview with Sacramento’s Hot 103.5 that The Boondocks would return for a 20-episode fourth season, but no one really took heed to his information.

The Boondocks is an animated series created by Aaron McGruder. It’s about the Freeman family, who moves from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, to the peaceful suburb of Woodcrest. The differences in culture, lifestyle, and race fuels the characters to display exciting comedic material for the audience.

The series will return on Adult Swim but there is no official date as of yet.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
