The real Perry took offense and objected to his and McGruder's mutual bosses at Turner. Along the way, Jerome propositions Granddad, and viewers learn that the guy's whole deal is that he uses religion and drag to hide the fact that he's gay.

The brutally funny and caustic series spoke truth to power and pointed out society's most toxic ills, and it was all carried over from the popular newspaper comic strip created by McGruder. The African-American family lived in Woodcrest, an upper crust, primarily white suburban enclave (the Boondocks, in other words), a setting through which creator Aaron McGruder could discuss, criticize, and intellectually destroy politics, race relations, public figures, and popular culture, particularly African-American pop culture. The show revolved around the lives of the Freeman family - young, educated, bitingly funny Huey Freeman his wannabe hardcore rapper little brother Riley and their grandfather, Granddad, a cranky war veteran who didn't care for either boy's worldview. In 2005, Adult Swim broke up its usual schedule of absurd cartoons and nihilistic sketch comedy with the thoughtful, provocative, and lushly animated adaptation of The Boondocks.
