The Boondocks Update!
I have seen the first four episodes, and while I was skeptical after watching the premiere episode, I am now a fan.
Having been a long-time fan of the comic strip of the same name, the animated show offers less topical humor, and thus far seems to embrace longer term themes(think $yndication) A trade-off that is entirely appropriate and doesn't detract from the messages.

The Boondocks is the most honest portrayal of black/white relations in the US I have seen on television in some time.
The animation is good, and the story lines while not riveting, are very good for an animated television comedy. This is great social commentary with humor.
It's bound to offend some people, but anything that portrays the truth always does.
