*The Canadian Press is reporting that two episodes of Aaron McGruder's Cartoon Network strip "The Boondocks" that were pulled from the schedule for content are currently airing north of the border on Canada's Teletoon channel.
The episode "The Huey Freeman Hunger Strike" aired last Sunday (Scroll down to watch entire episode.), while "The Ruckus Reality Show" will be featured this coming Sunday at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on the network's adult-themed "Detour" programming block.
As previously reported, the two episodes in question were pulled by the Turner Cable-owned Cartoon Network because of its brutal bashing of BET. BET's CEO, Debra Lee, is depicted in "Hunger Strike" as "Debra Lee-vil," a sinister Dr. Evil clone who kills underlings and rants about creating a network "that would accomplish what hundreds of years of slavery, Jim Crow and malt liquor couldn't - the destruction of black people."
BET entertainment president Reggie Hudlin - once a "Boondocks" executive producer - is depicted as Dr. Lee-vil's Harvard-educated lieutenant whose bright idea is to steal five-year-old reality show ideas from MTV and graft them onto the BET brand.
