The genre now known as Blaxploitation is mix of grit, racial commentary, black power, stereotype and more, all through the perspective of the crazy decade of the 1970s. And all that makes it a good target for satire.

That's the goal of "Black Dynamite" (11:30 p.m. tonight, Adult Swim), a raucous, raunchy, sometimes funny cartoon based on the 2009 film of the same name.

Black Dynamite is the name of the central character voiced by actor Michael Jai White; he's a tough kung-fu fighting pimp/community hero (he runs a Whorphanage, a place for prostitutes and parent-less kids) who takes on any number of adventures against the Man. His sidekick is Bullhorn (Byron Minns); Cream Corn (Tommy Davidson) is the requisite comic relief, and HoneyBee (Kym Whitley) is the head hooker with a heart.

Turner Broadcasting is in hot water with mogul/Oprah friend Tyler Perry, according to the Los Angeles Times.

It all started when satirist Aaron McGruder came hard on Perry on the Father's Day episode of "The Boondocks," the cartoon that appears on the Turner-owned Cartoon Network, during its late night Adult Swim programming.

In the episode, a character very much like Tyler Perry offers the grandfather in "The Boondocks" a chance at fame. Winston Jerome is portrayed as a closeted cross-dresser who uses religion as a cover and a weapon. He's also a really bad writer. It's sometimes hilarious, sometimes homophobic and overall,  scathing. Naturally, Perry didn't like it one bit.

The man behind FX's snarky, boozy, potty-mouthed and funny animated spy show "Archer" is a nice guy from Asheville named Adam Reed.

Reed's the creator and an executive producer of the show, and as he tells it, his entry into animation was unexpected. (That's him on the right.) It all started after his 1992 graduation from UNC-CH.

"I graduated with no plan whatsoever," says Reed, who majored in English. He packed a bag and went to France, living and working odd jobs in Chamonix. Then the money ran out.
