October 8th for ‘Boondocks’ Season 2 Premiere

After almost two excruciating years of waiting for the second season of The Boondocks, fans can finally rest easy. The second season will premiere Monday, October 8th at 11:30 p.m..

Given what’s in store, Aaron McGruder seems to have packed the 16-episode season with enough goodies to have made the wait worth it. Storylines for season two include:

• Granddad feuds with a world-renowned rapper, Thugnificent after he moves into the neighborhood.

• Tom DuBois enlists the counsel of returning guest-star A Pimp Named Slickback when he fears he’s losing his wife to Usher.

• Granddad takes a stab at online dating.

• Huey, Riley and Granddad take in a day at the movies; going to see Soul Plane 2 (here’s guessing Huey’s not a fan).

• The family takes in a family from Hurricane Katrina.

Returning guest stars will include: Mos Def, Xzibit, Charlie Murphy, Sway, Katt Williams and others. No word yet on whether Samuel L. Jackson will be back.

All new guest stars will include: Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Ghostface Killah, Donald Faison, Lil Wayne, Terry Crews, Tichina Arnold, Cee-Lo, Tavis Smiley, Marion Ross, Cedric the Entertainer and more.
