The Boondocks is an American animated series created by Aaron McGruder. The Boondocks takes place in the same place and time frame as its comic counterpart. The show begins with the Freeman family having recently moved from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois to the peaceful and mostly-Caucasian suburb of Woodcrest . The perspective offered by this mixture of cultures, lifestyles, and races provides for much of the comedy in this series.

The series premiered on November 6, 2005. The 15-episode Season 1 ended on March 19, 2006. Season 2 premiered on October 8, 2007. (Two of its 15 episodes, "The Hunger Strike" and "The Uncle Ruckus Reality Show," were not aired, but they appeared on the DVD release.) Season 3 began airing on May 2, 2010 and concluded on August 15, 2010. On May 9, 2011, an interview with John Witherspoon was uploaded to YouTube, in which he stated that a 20-episode Season 4 will be made.

The Boondocks began its life as a comic strip in The Diamondback, the student newspaper at McGruder's alma mater, the University of Maryland, College Park. The strip later found its way into The Source magazine. Following these runs, McGruder began simultaneously pitching The Boondocks both as a syndicated comic strip and as an animated television series. The former goal was met first, and The Boondocks debuted in newspapers in April 1999.

In the meantime, development on a Boondocks TV series continued. McGruder and film producer/director Reginald Hudlin created a Boondocks pilot for the Fox Network, but found great difficulty in making the series acceptable for network television. Hudlin left the project after the Fox deal fell through, although McGruder and Sony Television are contractually bound to continue to credit him as an executive producer. Mike Lazzo, president of Adult Swim and executive producer for Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Space Ghost Coast to Coast stumbled across the pilot and declared it too networky. He then ordered a 15 episode Season and told McGruder to "just tell stories".

Bushido Brown has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
