Part 10: • Carl Jones Responds to...
--------
Carl Jones discussed the fourth season of "The Boondocks," which received poor reviews due to lack of the "spark" seen in previous seasons. He attributed this to the absence of key contributors who brought a unique element to the series. Jones also discussed Aaron McGruder's 2013 Kickstarter for a live-action movie featuring Uncle Ruckus, which he had no involvement in. The conversation continued with news of a two-season reboot of "The Boondocks" announced in 2019 by HBO Max. However, this project did not proceed and remains uncompleted. The series was highly valued for its perfectionist quality, involving meticulous attention to details - from hand-published leaves to correctly tied shoelaces. The pressure of maintaining this high standard, coupled with the passing away of voice actor, John Witherspoon, may have contributed to the stalling of the project. Vlad ended by touching on Aaron's work on the series, "Black Jesus," which lacked the "magic" of The Boondocks according to the guest. - บันเทิง

I miss the Boondocks. That's all I got.
That's all you need to say
Too bad Vlad got it canceled 😢
Get a job lil nigga
We all do brother. Imagine if it was on in this day and age? Man..
@@tensaikingX definitely. There's a lot of material to work with.
Simply put, these men created the feeling we know and love from boondocks. Once you try to replace that it never works.
Facts…just like Scary Movie
Walking Dead is a prime example. Frank Darabont left after the first season and slowly became something outside of his vision.
It’s a shame Carl and Aaron haven’t spoken. The Boondocks is an all time classic.
Word
It don’t be nothing to talk about.. it’s cool
@@michaelaustin5644?
@@michaelaustin5644man it’s one of the best adult shows ever based off ur name u prolly not a minority so I could see why u think it’s meh
@@Udontlikeice i think he meant that sometimes, people just drift apart naturally especially when they don't have the primary unifying/driving force (in this case, the Boondocks show) to bounce off of anymore. Same shit with old school friends you haven't seen/spoken to in ages, or in some cases even family members or friends outside work/school. Shit just happens like that sometimes 🤷♂
You can tell this is very painful for him… it’s very unfortunate that these 2 great men can’t put their differences aside and make greatness again… I couldn’t even watch season 4 smh
Every great thing always falls like that,
Carl and Aaron not talkin for 13 years is crazy asf
We gotta learn to forgive if it’s something to forgive we need to start doing it I bet you it’s over something weird
@@ChocolateGumDrop89 Yeah, probably!!
Aaron is just an ego and money driven ass. He sold his rights to his passion project he had working on for 20 years and let Cartoon Network destroy his work dude is as scummy as the characters he illustrates
I don't even see how you can have the show without Mcgruder.
Season 4 seemed like they were making fun of black people instead of being satirical like the earlier seasons
The very last episode had Riley racing r**ards. That said it all.
Became a caricature
@@user-gz1su4mf9tbingo
They were. That’s what happens when too many white ppl get involved, you seen what happen to the scary movie franchise right? Ok then
Indeed
Hopefully Aaron calls homie after this… you can tell Carl has no ill will towards him
Something happened that he's not telling us
Why does Aaron not fuck with him ? The "vlad" reason isn't the reason
@@Kobe-jz2zzit's a combination of things. Carl said that they had a blowup releasing all of their built up frustrations.
If anything, I wonder if Aaron will get hold of this interview and decide that he wants to tell his side of things.
@@Kobe-jz2zzAaron resented the fact that Carl was working on Black Dynamite. Carl was never going to leave The Boondocks, but Aaron started questioning his dedication and loyalty after that.
Aaron seems like the kind of person to hold grudges, and Carl still wanted to come back to The Boondocks when season four wasn't moving forward in production. I think it's clear that the problems are one-sided.
Damn man it’s kinda heartbreaking 💔 to hear them him and Aaron r still on bad terms I thought they had settled their differences and became friends again but that’s not the case sadly
Money, Egos, Bullshit, Politics
Perfect example the scary movie franchise things are never the same once the creators leave
I was thinking the same thing. Without the Wayans Scary Movie was NOT the same. Ironically the Zucker brothers helped create the spoofing genre, but the Wayans perfected it!
Season 4 was definitely a drop off but the Boondocks changed the game with so many memorable moments in just 3 seasons.
Man hopefully they can put their pride to the side. Not having spoken for 13 years is crazy. These guys made magic together
I love the boondocks, but season 4 was off. Hearing him explain it, it makes sense now
This was a moment in time. Glad I bought the dvds as a teen.
Including Season 4
Aaron Mcgruder was ahead of his time...Guy's like that always disappear before all the BS starts happening because they see it a mile away before everyone else 💯
Yup ! Exactly
What happened to the 129k
@@improbablyyourdad8458he raised it on Kickstarter. If you don't raise the intended goal amount by your set deadline, it's returned to the contributors that donated.
@@improbablyyourdad8458 Good question probably went towards his other projects!!
Imaging if the first Episode was titled RIP GRANDAD, with a funeral opening no jokes, with Huey and Riley having to go live back in Chicago…mannn we all go watch!
I was upset that the reboot got scrapped at first, but now that I think about I'm happy because the original boondocks (season 1-3) will remain as a masterpiece and trying to replicate it may actually harm the greatness of boondocks.
Why he gotta be in my bed tho!!He might shoot a deuce😂😂😂😅Riley voice.
Man I really dislike that 4th season, at that time I was like "what is going on".
I hope these brothers come together man... it's bigger than us.
I never watched one episode of Season 4 upon learning that McGruder and Carl Jones weren't a part of it. I'm entirely confident I missed nothing of value.
The Freedom riders was the only good episode
You're doing yourself a favor
@@jetla22 Yep that was only good episode!!
My ex girlfriend introduced me to the Boondocks and she told me she was obsessed with it. Then I became obsessed. Definitely a masterpiece that will stand the test of time.
Man, Boondocks would be so funny in today's world. 😢
It'd be canceled in seconds in today's world because of these soft mofos get offended over everything nowadays smh
They should make a Boondocks movie first and then bring back the show.
How can you make the boondocks without John witherspoon
@@TheTruth-mv7hm Replace him with his son who sounds just like him or Marlon Wayans who would do an AMAZING job.
@@UrShadowbannedGoIncognitoI don't think Aaron wants to replace John witherspoon.
@@sharonjo7630 We need someone and those two options are quite frankly the BEST alternatives that we have!’
Last episode of season 4 was good. It was ahead of its time with its parody of perceived cancel culture.
Carl said " ima be honest..." and Vlad cut him off! 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🙄🙄🙄🙄
We need a boondocks movie
We need Boondocks now more than ever.
For the culture alone imma need them to come out wit 3 more szns. From movies like Get out and they clone Tyrone we need that boondocks commentary man
The Boondocks would get canceled for sure in this day and age. It would be dope if they could rekindle that magic.
As soon as that show ended, the country became one long Boondocks episode.
@@IAM1OUTOF60South Park still going strong ain’t nobody cancelling the boondocks
@@MrTreyshawn22. And South Park has some stuff!!
They tried the reboot but John witherspoon died soon after they announced it. John witherspoon played granddad.
A Huey And Riley Adult Script Wit Regina King, Thugnificent, An Adult Jazmine Would Be Dope.
Maybe if they’re write her character well enough!!
… man, i was really looking forward to the remake… 😔💔
I knew season 4 was gon be bad when I seen Riley karate kick the light switch off
That’s like some bullshit a white person would write!!
I caught wind of the boondocks in like 2013 14. I bought all the dvds and was hooked
Damn how did I not see this coming, a question we all ask.
Yooooo that's Tubesteak loool IYKYK
We know
If i was in charge giving them all the support and motivation in the world to this team i would have:
Season one: Jan 2004
Season two: 2005
Season three: 2006
Season four: 2007
Five: '08
Six: '09
Seven: '10
Movie: 2012
and call it a day.
Tragedy they didn't make it to atleast 6 and relase a movie
Now that pops died we never getting that shit
The only two good episodes from season four were written by Rodney Barnes, who wrote on the first three seasons.
Wasn't he the one that took over the position that Carl and Aaron held on the show?
Yeah, he might be a good writer...but that doesn't always translate to being a creative director.
Making the Freeman family poor and indebted to someone was stupid. Why base a whole bunch of shows around this ? We've SEEN this before in 70's shows. Season 4 was out of character for the premise of the show.
Black Jesus definitely wasn’t a fail, VLAD stop hating
It don’t hit like boondocks he’s absolutely right
I hope they can make amends bro not even to make dope ass content its just sad to lose a friend like that you can tell it hurts Carl
I watched these clips hoping to hear that they working on the reboot . Damn
Wow. That's heartbreaking.
I just keep hearing the d ridin obama song in my head! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aaron shouldn't have never sold the Boondocks
I hope somebody can get Aaron and Carl to sit down at some point but I also understand some relationships ain’t worth revisiting
You can tell the OGs wernt involved for season 4 that shit was mid compared to the others
Vlad, you buggin. Black Jesus was hilarious!
I mean.. dude can't have an opinion? Lol
Season 3 wasn't it
Charlie Murphy character was legit the best part of the show, brought something else
Man somebody go have to apologize..this shit breaking my heart…they clearly both want to do The Boondocks…AARON PLEASE BRO 🥲
Perfection is the enemy of good...
The last episode of season 4 was my fav the special olympics one😂😂
An old man I worked with when I was 18 told me the same thing wow 😮
4:00 "Aaron didn't want to use him" I really wish we could unpack that and get some clarification on the JD Witherspoon voicing Grandad situation. It was alluded that the studio didn't want him, but I guess was Aaron?
It's not that hard to understand. The suggestion was that JD voice Grandpa because John was deceased. I can see why Aaron wouldn't want to go through with that on a regular. JD is not the same as his father. John WAS Grandpa. No amount of imitation would hide that fact over time. Also, Aaron probably has some fond memories of working with John. He'd just know it wouldn't be the same.
People want a revival (continuation) of _The Boondocks,_ not a fucking a reboot.
U can't, john witherspoon is dead, who can replace him as grandad, cmon now
@ronaldwhite8220 his son sounds just like him. Real talk. He could do it
@@dannisdiamondsand Carl just said Aaron doesn't want to go that route.
Everything Charlamagne gets involved in outside of The Breakfast Club fails
Aaron and Carl are legends because of that Show. 🐐🐐🐐🐐
I was gonna say he cut him off when he was gonna talk about not talk in13years ...but this is the guy that argues with the outlaws about 2pac
Damn this really thugnificent 😂😂😂🔥
Boondocks was my childhood man 😢
What happened to the Albert Hughes interview
The 4th season was crap. All it was was the Freeman family trying to avoid losing their house and getting into a bunch of shenanigans trying to save it. It was the same thing almost every episode.
I’m cool with what we got
Yea Season 4 is horrible. I tried to lie to myself and say it was good when it was airing 😂
Great things don't last long.. damn
John Witherspoon son had a long video on why he didn't do it. Was messed up how they didn't take him. I'd rather not have a new Boondocks without Charlie Murphy nd John Witherspoon
What's the reason?
@@sharonjo7630 in sum that they were gonna use some type of AI that would replicate his dad's voice. Being able to form new lines nd they also had another person that could voice Granddad. He didn't sound as much like John Witherspoon but would be more famous than his son.
How would he knows these things if he ain’t spoke to dude in 13 years ? Damn vlad you be aggy sometimes
Probably still talk with people that keep in touch with Aaron. You know, on some "I heard that Aaron..." type stuff.
Y’all need talk and bring the show
Season 4 doesn’t even exist as far as I’m concerned.
The best show ever
Jacket is dope
What channel was Boondocks coming on?
Cartoon Network - Adult Swim
The reboot would've been on HBO Max
Oh I know who you are Chris Hanson, but see I call ya Chris Handsome!
NEW VLAD MISSION UNLOCKED: Reunite Aaron and Carl, by any means necessary 🫡
Y’all still haven’t spoken WOW🤕
Nothings going to too boondocks but black Jesus was hilarious
I’m honestly okay we didn’t get The Boondocks reboot because I felt like we could have Season 4 again where the quality just dipped.
I watched a couple episodes of season 4 and carl and aaron’s absence is jarringly apparent.
Yeah I was always wondering why Aaron wasn't around for Boondocks Season 4. I mean, I guess he wanted to focus solely on Black Jesus, but it was just a bad choice imo. Black Jesus was never really entertaining or interesting. Boondocks season 1-3 had sooooo much charm, was ahead of its time and also tackled real world event, changing it into a hilarious parody.
So like Aaron is very emotional?
There’s something so Meta about Carl and Aaron being like Huey and Riley…
How can they use the same idea over and over like family guy and American dad for Hella long and we don’t have a similar boondocks show to match it with 😂 we need more of that talent or even an imitation will do
I need to see a dr umar boondocks episode !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Black Jesus was fye till season 3. 1 n 2 were great season 3 can’t get past episode 1
Where is season 3?
I agree season 3 wasn't it
Wait is this tubesteak
Its tubesteak the man....
Vlad is ridiculous, Black Jesus was 🔥🔥
First line sound like the black family structure....
Man. MAAAAN. If only, if only
This guy is Desus Nice's brother...... I'm sure... Lol😂😂😂😂😂 ( B.S )
In retrospect, I don’t think we needed Black Dynamite 🤔
Season four DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ED & RUMMY! 🤦♂️👎 what an insult. I vowed never to watch S4 again, sadly i still remember it clearly like an embarrassing memory from your childhood, lol.
Season 4 is just fan fiction. They should pull all those episodes.
Not even fanfiction would think up the freemans being broke.
Americans should be leading a match to have this show back please. Now that we still got some of the voice actors still alive. This is my best cartoon ever. Like ever. Yesterday, today and forever. I love thus show. I'm a Nigerian. I just wish those gay right activists should just channel that energy into bringing this show back. Imagine the things they would have to work with. The satire will be epic. Bring back this show. Aaron Magruder must be on it and all the cast still alive. Rip to Witherspoon aka the Grandad. Aka Bitches😂
nah, them tries were perfect tho
S.4 had a few good episodes in my opinion
Pretty Boy Flizzy, Breaking Grandad, and I dream of Siri. All the others were mediocre at best. I hated Ed Wuncler II character. And the Freemans struggling in Woodcrest made it even worse.
Hope these 2 could reconcile and at least try to give us a movie.
The chris brown episode was funny as hell, after that, that was it
I wanna do your wife 🎶
Boondocks 4 life
Season 4 had like 2 good episodes
That's sad, come together you two. Forgive.
I miss Black Jesus too!
