The brief plot synopsis for tonight’s all new episode, titled “Breaking Granddad,” reads:
“The Freemans sell an explosive hair product on the black market.”
This week the show is taking on Breaking Bad. The first episode of the current season took on Chris Brown with Michael B. Jordan playing Pretty Boy Flizzy. Jordan recently spoke with The Huffington Post about his role on the show:
“Pretty Boy Flizzy! That was sooo much fun, man. I saw it last night. I did it such a long time ago. I shot it maybe a year and a half ago. And for it to finally come out, it was so, so funny. I was dying ... But it was a fun experience.
“You know sometimes when you can't say the sh*t you really want to say, but through a character like that you could just speak how we would talk to one another, but do it through a cartoon. It was fun. “
Jordan also spoke about Aaron McGruder’s departure from the series, adding:
“Man, Aaron is actually a buddy of mine. And honestly I forgot. He had to tell me, not that long ago, that he got fired from it. And I was like, ‘What, really?!?’ It kind of caught me off guard, I totally forgot. Because when you think ‘Boondocks’ you think ‘Aaron McGruder,’ period ... It was a little bittersweet, because when I actually signed on to it I was like, ‘Yeah, of course. Aaron's my boy. Of course I will.’ And then it was like, ‘Whoa, wait, wait... really?!’ I still did it, because you kind of have to. You gotta pay homage to ‘Boondocks.’
“But yeah man, it was just a weird situation ... For anybody who created and started with something, and for them to somehow get pushed out and not be involved with it anymore. But not knowing the specifics behind it or whatever ... So you can't really make that call. I'm not sitting in those rooms. But to see my boy pushed out might be a little messed up. “
