The New Black (The Boondocks)

The New Black is the 10th episode and season finale of the 4th season of mh:besttvshows:The Boondocks. It aired on June 23, 2014.

Why It Isn't The New Black

 * 1) This episode clearly displays how bad Season 4 of the series was.
 * 2) Riley Freeman is targeted after using a homophobic slur (the word "gay") at a kid dancing, with a very less funny and serious attitude, unlike the previous episode.
 * 3) Robert and Rollo Goodlove tell the protesters that Riley uses "gay" against something he doesn't like because he has special needs.
 * 4) This is the second time Riley Freeman has been on the media for school issues.
 * 5) During the conversation scene they say gay over & over again.
 * 6) Unnecessary jokes about the mentally challenged, where they compare using “retarded” to using the word “gay.” Expect that the message is rather muddled and thereby lost.
 * 7) This killed (animated part of) the franchise for 6 years until HBO Max announced a reboot for 2 seasons, only for them to cancel it due to the death of John Witherspoon and Regina King stressing over the loss of her son.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Picture of Riley Freeman running in the track to win is pretty hilarious
 * 2) Good ending theme song with end credits.
 * 3) Great animation and voice acting like always.
