What happened to this show, it used to be deep and have relevant social commentary. I watched every season leading up to this new one, and the first season still stands as by far the best season, and likely the most personal to the series creator.
Black Dynamite is a better show now because in the context of what Black Dynamite stands for, it's allowed to be silly, over-the-top, and just plain ridiculous, and the twisted storylines match the wacky animation and writing perfectly. Thing is, Black Dynamite, in spite of its silliness, still manages to exude some poignant moments, such as in the Richard Pryor episode - and it didn't even have to tbh. I hope McGruder's next show, Black Jesus, is a return to what made season 1 of The Boondocks so damn good.
