"This ain't Gene Wilder, muthaf*cka! This is BLACK DYNAMITE!" -Richard Pryor (sorta)

Okay, so for those of us that don't have cable, here's the Get Him to the Sunset Strip episode of Black Dynamite...

Yeah... I'm feeling Black Dunamite. The show alternates between making fun of the blaxploitation genre and putting it on a pedestal. In fact, the whole of seventies era post-black power pop culture has found itself celebrated and critiqued by the Black Dynamite franchise with equal vigor. Much like that previous Adult Swim smash The Boondocks, this show looks like it will have no sacred cows. I mean, they've already put beloved black icons Michael Jackson and now Richard Pryor's feet to the fire.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the clips. A new episode drops Sunday!
