The Cartoon Network series Boondocks has me laughing till I cry.
Can't way to see how Family Guy does a send-up of that show.
Or izzit only the Simpsons that FG skewers these days?
And on an equally unrelated note: Rumor has it Fox may be considering bringing back Futurama as it has taken on a similar post-Fox trajectory as FG did.

I've seen a few episodes, but I never thought it was funny. Interesting, in a way. Entertaining as well. But I didn't even realize it was *supposed* to be funny.

There's nothing funny about Boondocks. They try to be funny but...just isn't. All props to CN for trying though.

Try to be funny? I don't believe that is what he is trying to do at all. He is using his cartoon to exhibit the outrageous and ridiculous behavior that exists in the Black and Urban community.
The joke isn't the show, the joke is our behavior.

That makes sense to me. The quality of the message is terrific, but the content, while I imagine it is basically accurate though obviously exaggerated in some cases, is a bit depressing since there's really nothing I can see that I could do about it.

The humor is for those who have ears to hear.
