The Boondocks

**The Boondocks** is an American adult animated sitcom created by American writer and lecturer Aaron McGruder, synonymously based upon his comic strip of the same name, for Cartoon Network's late-night programming block, Adult Swim. The series premiered on November 6, 2005.

The entire series was made avaliable at launch.

## Premise

*The Boondocks* centers around the adventures of two boys, Riley and Huey Freeman, who undergo a severe culture clash when they move from Chicago to the suburbs to live with their grandfather.

## Production

### Development

*The Boondocks* began as a comic strip on Hitlist.com, one of the first online music websites. The strip later found its way into *The Source* magazine. Following these runs, McGruder began simultaneously pitching *The Boondocks* as both a syndicated comic strip and an animated television series. The former goal was met first, and *The Boondocks* debuted in newspapers in April 1999.

In the meantime, the development of the TV series continued. McGruder and film producer/director Reginald Hudlin (President of Entertainment for BET from 2005 to 2008) created a *Boondocks* pilot for the Fox Network, but found great difficulty in making the series acceptable for network television. Hudlin left the project after the Fox deal fell through, though McGruder and Sony Television were contractually obligated to credit him as an executive producer for the first two seasons. Mike Lazzo, president of Adult Swim and executive producer for *Aqua Teen Hunger Force* and *Space Ghost Coast to Coast*, stumbled across the pilot and declared it "too networky". He then ordered a 15-episode season and told McGruder to "just tell stories".

The series has a loose connection with the continuity of the comic strip, though during the final year of the strip McGruder made a point to try to synchronize them. He introduced Uncle Ruckus into the strip, and the comic-strip version of Riley's hair was braided into cornrows to match the character's hair in the series. During Season 1, McGruder put the strip on a 6-month hiatus beginning in March 2006. He did not return to the strip the following November, and the strip's syndicate, Universal Press Syndicate, announced that it had been canceled.

It is produced by Nicole O'Donohue and directed by Shaun Wilson and Jennifer Leacey.

## Premise

*Frayed* is set in 1989 (due to Kendall's belief that modern communications technology has ruined storytelling) and follows the story of Samantha 'Sammy' Cooper, a wealthy London housewife. She is forced to return to her hometown of Newcastle in Australia (Kendall's real-life hometown), after the death of her husband. She returns to Newcastle with her son and daughter and moves in with her mother and brother Jim. Sammy revisits her past and the events that led her to flee as a teenager. She soon realises that everyone in her hometown hates her and she tries to get back to London. But she finds it difficult as she has to face numerous obstacles along the way.

## Reception

### Critical

Reviews for the series have generally been mixed to positive. In a review for website Chortle, Steve Bennett praised Kendall's performance, commenting that "Kendall, whose winningly dry performance is central to the show's appeal, has said she wanted to offer an alternative view of 1980s Australia than the one portrayed in the sun-soaked scenes of *Neighbours* and *Home And Away*, and she’s certainly paints a much less romantic picture." He went on to mention that "Once Frayed’s premise is finally established, it offers plenty to suggest this is worth sticking with".

In a favourable review by Steve Dessau of website Beyond the Joke praised the cast performances and he said "It's not all laughs – some of the best laughs come via pop culture gags about The Thompson Twins – but there is more than enough that is funny and intriguing here to justify setting up a series link in your schedule."

Anthony Morris of Screenhub rated the series 4 stars out of 5 as he was favourable of the opening episode, pointing out that the series gets dramedy right and that it is evident from the first episode. He said that "Frayed isn’t perfect: it slows down a lot once it hits Newcastle and Sammy (initially) is the kind of character it takes time to warm to. Almost all the characters are either angry or ditzy; eventually somebody’s going to have to have something going for them. But unlike a lot of dramedies, it seems likely the characters will be given the chance to grow. This feels more like it’s the start of a story than just setting up a situation."

In a negative review from Jasper Rees of The Daily Telegraph, he criticized the first episode, stating that "[*Frayed* is] a pungent Eighties-set comedy that doesn’t know how far to take the joke" and gave it 3 out of 5 stars

Sheldon and Leonard meet Katie after she breaks up with a boyfriend and they invite her to share their apartment. Gilda is threatened by Katie's presence.

Miko Saeki

**Miko Saeki** (ミコ佐伯) is a 1st year student attending Seisho Music Academy.

## Appearance

Average height with a very slight build, and wavy hair which is kept at chin length. She braids part of her fringe back so that it doesn’t get in her eyes. Aside from uniform, she often wears light coloured clothing, and prefers more feminine styles.

## Personality

Miko might come off shy at first glance, but she’s really just remarkably calm and composed. While off the stage she’s very reserved and soft spoken, but her stage presence and projection aren’t at all lacking. She is a bit anxiety prone but tends to internalise these feelings.

## Background

Coming from a performing arts background, with her mother being a professional Ballet dancer, Miko has grown up around the stage. She’s an only child, and her father and mother don’t have the best relationship, but because of her mother’s career she learnt how to take care of herself at a young age. Her mother is the prima of a well known ballet company, and all her life Miko has found herself defined by that fact. She learned ballet from the age that she could walk, and always strives for an ideal even beyond perfection. Due to her obsessive nature, she didn’t really have any friends growing up, and often her peers felt intimidated by her intensity. Straying from the path of just dancing was the first real decision that Miko made for herself, after going to see a play with her father at about age 10. From then on she also worked on honing her acting skills, though she often felt frustrated that in this new environment she wasn’t on top. So her reaction to this was to begin studying her peers, picking up on what they did right or wrong, and using those observations to strengthen her own performance.

## Classes

* Acting 1
* Singing 1
* Music 1

## Weapons

Miko Saeki wields a one-handed Rapier Sword.

**List of Character Weapons**

## Trivia

* She’s incredibly sensitive to spicy food, and can’t handle hot things.
* People often find the dissonance between how she is on stage and off it to be disconcerting.
