Black Dynamite (TV series)

Black Dynamite is an American adult animated blaxploitation comedy television series developed by Carl Jones for the Cartoon Network late-night programming block Adult Swim. It is based on the 2009 film of same name, although the series follows an alternate continuity. Michael Jai White, Byron Keith Minns, Tommy Davidson and Kym Whitley reprise their film roles as Black Dynamite, Bullhorn, Cream Corn and Honeybee, respectively. Cedric Yarbrough also reprises his film role as the Western-style pimp Chocolate Giddy-Up, along with Jimmy Walker Jr. as the restaurant owner Roscoe and Arsenio Hall as fellow pimp Tasty Freeze.

Black Dynamite was announced shortly after the release of the original film. Its 10-minute pilot was released on Adult Swim Video on August 8, 2011 before premiering on the channel block on July 15, 2012. The series ended January 10, 2015 with a total of 2 seasons containing 10 episodes each. Most episodes are rated TV-MA (akin to the R rating of the film itself) for bloody, stylized violence, strong sexual references (including nudity, references to prostitution, and depictions of sex acts), profanity and racial humor.
