When Robert Jebediah Freeman became the legal guardian of his rambunctious grandkids, he moved the family from Chicago’s South Side to the quiet and safety of "The Boondocks," a.k.a. suburban Woodcrest, in hopes that he can ignore the kids altogether and enjoy the fourth quarter of his life in peace.
Things aren’t quite working out that way.
And although the boys torture each other and provoke the neighborhood, they are still no match for Granddad, who is eccentric even by "crazy-ass-old-black-man" standards.
Granddad seems like he was born crotchety. And no one knows how old he really is. But he’s witnessed some of the most monumental events in history, and Malcolm X died still owing him five dollars.
Though Granddad is retired, that doesn’t mean he isn’t looking for a nice girl, or even a nasty one, to spend a little bit of time with.
