WATCH ALL BOONDOCKS EPISODES SERIES

вЂњWhen Adult Swim transitions series to a new platform we determine what episodes are selected through creative and cultural filters and our standards and practices policies,вЂќ the Adult Swim spokesperson said, referencing вЂњThe BoondocksвЂќ and вЂњAqua Teen Hunger ForceвЂќ catalogs being made available on HBO Max when the streaming service launched in May. (Both HBO Max and Adult Swim are owned by WarnerMedia.) These episodes are not available on HBO Max because they are not part of Adult SwimвЂ™s streaming deals with the platform.

The вЂњAqua Teen Hunger ForceвЂќ episode that was removed is Season 6вЂ™s вЂњShake Like Me,вЂќ which is titled in reference to John Howard GriffinвЂ™s вЂњBlack Like Me,вЂќ and sees Shake become вЂњstereotypicallyвЂќ Black in his behavior and physical appearance after being bitten by a Black man infected with toxic waste.ДЄlso Read: '30 Rock,' 'Scrubs' and Other TV Shows and Movies Pulled Over Blackface and Racial Insensitivity (Photos) вЂњThe BoondocksвЂќ installment in question is Season 3вЂ™s вЂњThe Story of Jimmy Rebel,вЂќ which focuses on Uncle RuckusвЂ™ relationship with a country singer whose albums have titles like вЂњReal N****** Never Die, They Just Smell That Way.вЂќ Adult Swim has вЂњpermanently retiredвЂќ an episode of вЂњAqua Teen Hunger ForceвЂќ and an episode of вЂњThe Boondocks,вЂќ making them unavailable for streaming on the Adult Swim site and WarnerMediaвЂ™s HBO Max, вЂњdue to cultural sensitivities,вЂќ a representative for the cable channel told TheWrap Tuesday.
