The Boondocks Returns April 21 Without Aaron McGruder

While Aaron McGruder focuses on developing Black Jesus for Adult Swim, the creator of the Peabody-winning The Boondocks will not return to work on the series' fourth and final season when it returns on April 21. After four years on hiatus, a press release from Sony Pictures Television, which produces the series, noted that the new season "was produced without the involvement of Aaron McGruder, when a mutually agreeable production schedule could not be determined." Series stars Regina King (Huey and Riley) and John Witherspoon (Granddad) will return for the fourth season, along with frequent director Andrea Romano.
