best Riley episode.

Nah Season 3 really has some back to back classics. Holy shit.

Season 3 is peak.

[@jonathanhamlet1942]

Facts bro!❤

[@bluetone-amv]

Season 1 is only that's worth a damn. These episodes have sucked

[@ItsAVolcano]

Cindy is a more recurring character in the original comic strip. This episode actually returns her to form so to speak, as comic Cindy was friends with the boys along with being a huge wigga.

[@piusdoe8984]

Really? Ah man waste to not have her more. I always laugh when she on screen

[@justinbent9320]

I think she was more obsessed with Black people/cultures and treated the boys and especially Jasmine as an oddity to marvel at. She sure as hell wasn’t quoting Beanie Sigel in the comic strip lol

[@DDarkestKnight]

"Friend" is doing alot of work there. The most wigga thing about her was her favorite rapper being Snoop Dogg. Outside of that she was just another innocently ignorant white person in Woodcrest.

[@AR-yd2nd]

​@@justinbent9320 Yup. Cindy in the comic serves only that reason, ironically show Cindy is actually more complex of a character

[@hhh1234h]

She’s so different in the Comics she thought Mariah Carey was just tan, now she’s like you said wigga

[@Max25670]

"Take that F---s!" Tara Strong was also on Drawn Together so this is nothing new for her 🤣

[@Lloyd00]

Beans would go to war

[@sonicboomkj]

My favorite reference is when Riley was yelling at Jazmine. That was the scene with Ray Liotta when his wife flushed the drugs in Goodfellas. "Why would you do that Karen!"

[@georgeprchal3924]

Also Peta? Really Jasmine?

[@curtiszyr]

There’s a couple good fellas reference . Kung fu killa wolf bxtch episode had a reference grandad waking up to Luna point a gun to his face.

[@davidzimmerman9699]

The Fundraiser episode is easily a top five ep for me is just how fun the whole story is with very little social commentary (for the Boondocks). That final “fuck you” speech was the funniest shit ever said when I heard it back in the day and it stands the test of time

[@Lloyd00]

This and the red ball are my favorite

[@ChromaticEagle]

I feel like the social commentary is there just more subtle

[@DDarkestKnight]

It's both the funniest and one of the stupidest Riley moments ever. That's comedy gold

[@sonicboomkj]

C-Murder is one of my favorite characters.

[@nichescenes]

I love shows with this almost hey Arnold running cast. Eps where all cast are in it you get some great writing if the characters are creative and world fleshed out. Loved shows like recess and South Park for this. Some shows fail as the cast is dry and not too exciting though. Doug side cast is kinda one note for example still fun though

[@Wolfpolitics]

Tara Strong Is Cindy's Voice actor, she also does timmy turner and lots of other cartoon network and nickelodeon shows too 😂

[@NoahBility]

Tara Strong is VA royalty The fact that they pulled her for Boondocks to play this role is incredible 😂

[@DDarkestKnight]

​@@NoahBilityIt wasn't really that hard when they had the world's greatest voice casting director working on the show. She worked with all the white legends that worked on the Boondocks

[@DDarkestKnight]

Tara Strong is the reason Cindy is a beloved character

[@zangetsu1597]

​@NoahBility I mean literal Regina King, Samuel L Jackson, Snoop Dog, Charlie Murphy, John Witherspoon, etc are in the show. Imo this is more impressive than pulling a seasoned voice actor like Tara Strong. Even Yuri Lowenthal was in an episode

[@NoahBility]

@@zangetsu1597 these are all cultural pillars in the Black community, in the same way this show eventually became So yes, we understand *their* significance in this show I'm replying to the original comment about Tara Strong's involvement specifically It was a great pull for a character like Cindy That's it, that's all

the MOST ANTICIPATED EPISODE by real ones, iykyk💯 ...and Riley's monologue is chefs kiss 🤌🏾✨

[@DarthSenku]

Facts😮‍💨

[@ShortThe1st]

My all time favourite episode of boondocks to this day because of Riley's monologue and Cindy's character. Also one line that was cut from the reaction where the chocolate boss says "When Liverpool beats Arsenal, I'm upset" is one of my favourites as a football fan.

[@rocketmanart7964]

Cindy is voiced by Tara Strong who did Bubbles, Raven, Timmy Turner etc.

[@GabrielOsiuhwu]

This came out in 2010

[@MoneyGist]

Best monologue of any animated series ever. Let's go!

[@georgeprchal3924]

Riley's speech is what American Lindsay Lohan should have said to British Lindsay Lohan in The Parent Trap.

[@piusdoe8984]

Everything about this episode is amazing. But Riley flashbackin to everything that happened! And choosing to do it again was unbelievable! 😂😂😂 🔥

[@N810garcia]

God it’s been forever since I’ve seen this episode. My favorite Riley focused episode. Great references, quotes and animation. 10/10.

[@Bhint320610]

Riley’s speech goes soooo fucking hard. I remember watching this for the first time. I was hype!

[@wuhansam]

This episode is what we consider "el clasico" in my hood.

[@LilGamez21]

Finally we got to this episode my favorite one of the season with the kickball episode being a close first. I love this episode. 😂 Also the scene where Riley is yelling at Jazmine about the money was from Goodfellas where Henry is yelling at Karen for throwing away the cocaine.

[@perryb2617]

That Boondocks mha frame is dope

[@JakeMatthews-OnLo]

People would be surprised how fucked up chocolate and gas companies can be. Im surprised they didn’t hired “contractors” like shell and went directly. Also I loved the line of the gangsters saying “We already paid you” to the swat team.

[@TheKerryEXP]

ALSO one of my favorite, if not THE BEST Boondocks episode. And a rare Riley episode. I loved it so much.

[@DDarkestKnight]

What do you mean rare? By this season Riley had more episodes than Huey

[@TheKerryEXP]

@@DDarkestKnight just from what I remember. It’s been a while.

[@darryljack6612]

Great to see everyone is on the couch, for literally one of the best episodes in the show. Also now people can stop coming up with conspiracy theories as to why some people were missing.

[@DDarkestKnight]

14:00 Cindy had that look like "I should've left with Jazmine. Riley's gonna get me killed!"

[@biggycheese5764]

[@CrystalisQ]

Fun story, I was living in the Boston suburbs back in the mid 90s and had a school fundraiser to sell something, but not anything I carried product for. So one day I walked over to my buddy's house about 15 minutes away, and took the paperwork with me. I picked an apartment at random as I got near my buddy's house and a teen my age opened the door. I gave my spiel, and he pulled a gun on me and demanded all my money. The gun had a laser aim assist on it, and he had that bad boy trained directly on one of my eyes as all I could see was the red of the laser. I desperately tried to convince him I had no money on me and this was the first house I had stopped at. He didn't believe me, but thankfully his older brother (cousin?) walked to the door to see what was up, and freaked out on the kid "that thing's loaded!" "I know!" during which time the gun stopped being trained on me, and I took the opportunity to get the fuck outta there.

[@Ishtah333]

Hands down my favorite episode of The Boondocks.

[@darryljack6612]

Huey episodes usually involving saving the day from forces outside of his control Riley Episodes usually involve getting himself nearly killed by forces he could have controlled.

[@NickEclipse]

My most favorite Riley episode aside, the fact that Ed’s only line was one of his best lines *”THIS IS OUR CHOCOLATE MOTHAFCKA!!!!🤬”* 😂😂 God I miss Charlie Murphy Also, shoutout to MF CINDY!! She was Riley’s ride or die fr! I shipped them mad heavy as a kid and still do

The shoot out at the end was based off of the shoot out from True Romance, a film written by but not directed by Quentin Tarantino

[@TupocalypseShakur]

I remember watching State Property 1 and 2 as a kid. It was when I truly understood that a movie could be ass. Some of the worst movies today don't compare. So when I first heard the Guy Ritchie character say get down or lay down I lost it

[@maxdon2001]

Great reaction! This one was so good!

[@jacksoncooper8459]

Let's get one thing straight. Cindy is Young Cammy from Street Fighter.

[@nichescenes]

It’s funny how the company that animated for this turned down animating for Korra at first due to this being easier on the animators when this season has tons of great animation. Like that chocolate Star Wars boy reference. That spin animation is harder than non artist think. Also the fights this season. Korra is still harder due to it using too many frames to keep it fluid so i guess it makes sense. Animators have pride though and they helped with Korra anyway for fear the seasons animation stunk and people blamed them if they didn’t help lol. Strange. Reminds me that jjk season 2 animators care about breaks but overall they really love making impressive animation regardless of studio. It’s not that they hate work they just need time to do it and time to work their creativity.

[@wilshady775]

My all time favorite episode!!!💯😂

[@aristothethrone9032]

I sold so much chocolate that I won a mongoose bike. And they had to bring me in to find out if I got the money through legitimate means. I told them straight up that I got my aunt to take me to nice neighborhoods. And I'd sell the 1 dollar bars for 3. By saying someone sold these bars 3 years ago, and it was enough for my family to be moved out of Poland, that by selling these bars I could do the same for someone else. And I used that money to buy more and then sell them for the entire month. I sold 1200 bars. Pocketed 1800. My mom tanned my hide. But she still took me to Walmart to get that mongoose. And I had a real metal chain on that bike. The official prize that I won was a little booklet with coupons in it for Pizza Hut. For like two months worth of medium pizzas. Someone eventually stole my bike and tried to spray paint it black. But I got 7 aunts and hella cousins. So we found it. Jumped them and got it back. If Alberto ever sees mention of this. I want him to know that I can still throw hands, and I'd whoop that trick again.

[@lexzone-six9912]

The story of Jimmy Rebel probably isn't streaming on any legal sites. If you want to see it, you'll probably have to order the unrated blue ray.
