Black Dynamite is an 2012 Animated Adaptation of the 2009 movie Black Dynamite, which was an Affectionate Parody of Blaxploitation films, on [adult swim].The series does not follow the same Stylistic Suck of the movie. Instead it ratchets up the silliness by mixing in supernatural, extraterrestrial, and just whacked out nonsense to its plots, largely derived from 1970s black pop culture. And plenty of Lampshade Hanging as Black Dynamite and his crew take on any threats that seek to put the black man down.It was cancelled after a 2 season run in late 2014.

Misplaced Wildlife: Black Dynamite and Cream Corn infiltrate the Vietnamese village disguised as a camel. Cream Corn points out that there are no camels in Vietnam. Hilariously, the villagers do not seem to notice this. The same episode had an anaconda in Vietnam, even though anacondas are all native to South America. This may have been intentional, though.

But later on while having a flashback BD recalls Tureaud charging the VC before being engulfed in an explosion.

 Black Dynamite / int_259d5879
comment
Anachronism Stew: Although set in The '70s, the exact year it's set is very muddled, with the plot drawing from events and pop culture from The '60s to The '90s. Richard Nixon is still in office, Roots is just premiering, Richard Pryor is debuting on the Sunset Strip, and so on. The constant Historical In-Jokes referencing events decades in the future don't make things any clearer.

Mythology Gag
 Black Dynamite / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Trouble on Puppet Street Bullhorn gouges out one of the puppets' eyes just like how Black Dynamite did in the movie. Black Dynamite mirrors his "I was an orphan" line from the movie, but this time says "I was a children.". Bullhorn Nights; or Murder She Throats A boom mic guy lowers a mic too close to Black Dynamite's head like in the movie, though this was an in-universe example, not an example of Special Effects Failure. Black Dynamite goes through the Insane Troll Logic scene at Roscoe's like he did in the movie. A Crisis For Christmas: or The Dark Side Of The Dark Side Of The Moon After O.J. Simpson is hit by a comet, Black Dynamite mirrors another one of his lines from the movie. Panic on the Player's Ball Express; or That's Influenza Sucka! Crenshaw Pete- He of the Hot-Ass Coat Hangars- is one of the guests at the Player's Ball. Captain Kangaroo was another guest at the Player's Ball. And he's the first one killed by Leroy Van Nuys in an aversion of Black Dude Dies First. Leroy Van Nuys reveals himself properly with the same Leitmotif as was used for Fiendish Dr. Wu in the movie. The Shit That Killed The King; or Weekend at Presley's Richard Nixon still seems to be Black Dynamite's archnemesis. Apocalypse, This!; or For the Pity of Fools; a.k.a. Flashbacks Are Forever While flying to Vietnam, Cream Corn mentions how he hates being in the helicopter because he has this recurring nightmare of a helicopter he's in exploding, and then Black Dynamite yelling "CREAM CORN, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!", exactly how he dies in the movie. When Black Dynamite is "discreetly" asking around the village if anyone had seen his friend Larry Tureaud, he runs into the "Chinese" boy he met back during the Vietnam War. The boy is about to tell him about Tureaud when he gets killed by a thrown Ka-bar knife. Honky Kong or White Apes Can't Hump BD vehemently lashes out at Euphoria for talking back to him, telling her to get a hot cup of SHUT THE FUCK UP. Bullhorn, Cream Corn, and all the hos were stunned silent before BD remembered himself and continued on with the conversation. The Race War; or Big Black Cannon, Balls Run! Black Dynamite tells someone to sit down while the grown-ups are talking. Fiendish Dr. Wu and his crew are driving the Chinese car. Also, they were the ones responsible for the Menthol-X being missing and were going to sell it to B.I.G. Tobacco, like how Fiendish Dr. Wu made the dick-shrinking chemical for the government in the movie. That Seed of Kurtis AKA Father Is Just Another Word For Motherf***er During Rev. Dynamites service, one of the pimps says the line "but Rev. Dynamite, we sell hoes to the community," echoing one of the more famous lines from the movie. Sweet Bill's Badass Singalong Song or Bill Cosby Ain't Himself After Black Dynamite interrupts an act at a comedy club, the rest of the patrons are waiting for him to try his hand at stand-up, with which BD references one of his lines from the movie: Mister Rogers' Revenge or Please Don't You Be His Neighbor The same theme used in Leroy Van Nuys' reveal is later used while Mr. McFeely is telling Black Dynamite about his time with Mr. Rogers. American Band Standoff or The Godfather of Soooul Train or Get On Your Goodfellas The music used in the dance-off at the end of the episode is the same theme used in the movie, during Black Dynamite's slugfest at the Hip Pocket. In Black Jaws, Samuel L. Jackson's character dies mid pep talk just like in Deep Blue Sea.

comment
Ice-Cream Koan: A ninja accompanying Black Dynamite on a trip to Michael Jackson's father gives us this little tidbit. According to one youtube commenter, what it really means is: "sometimes we make mistakes, our mistakes can make things harder for our comrades. We must look each other face-to-face and understand that these mistakes are part of growing, and forgive our comrade. In so doing, both parties become more mature." Alternatively; "Sometimes we let ourselves get guided by petty things and then the bad seems to overshadow the good, so you can't act like a friend. So in order to help each other, we have to come together and discuss things and realize that prospering only ourselves is wrong."

Previously on…: Parodied. Several episodes, including the series premiere, start with a Previously on… that fills us in on the storyline leading into the current episode, but all of it is made up and has absolutely nothing to do with the actual last episode that aired.

Richard Nixon thinks that Basehead is one (even referring to the trope by name) and hopes that he'll help foil Black Dynamite's crew after he suddenly shows up in the Oval Office to complain about how the government released too high quality drugs for too cheap a price. Basehead responds that he's just a crackhead though. Dr. Yakub, for being the only black individual in a parallel white ecosystem he himself created (and thus "The Man" by default).

Not His Sled
 Black Dynamite / int_5a36f8bc
comment
The Shit That Killed The King: After Elvis Presley collapses dead at Roscoe's, Honey Bee comes up with a plan to move the King's body back to Graceland and make it look like he died of an overdose there in order to prevent The N-Bomb from being dropped on The Black Community. Except in a Not His Sled moment, it turns out Elvis didn't die but just fell into one of his apparently periodic temporary comas.

The Unwitting Comedian: Richard Pryor is SO hilarious, that anyone that hears him speak will laugh hysterically (except Black Dynamite, who has No Sense of Humor). It gets SO bad however, he tries to seriously threaten someone in jail, only for them to laugh in his face, not taking him seriously. He pours his heart out to Black Dynamite that he has serious things he wants to say, but nobody can ever take him seriously.

Heel–Face Turn: Black Dynamite makes Elvis Presley genuinely see what an ass he's been, and breaks into song to show his appreciation of how stealing music from black people made him who he is. Several villains forgo this trope. Namely Michael Jackson and That Bastard Kurtis.

N-Word Privileges: Parodied with the ninjas in the first episode, who use the word "ninja" as a euphemism for the n-word proper; whereas Black Dynamite and co. are fine using ninja in that context, a white police officer who uses it gets beat up. Black Dynamite mentions that Elvis being found dead in The Black Community would give Nixon justification to drop "The N-Bomb" on the black community, the one word that cannot be said on TV. It is strongly implied that the United States government actually weaponized the N-Word.

Playing the Family Card: In the pilot "Trouble on Puppet Street," puppet-turned-pimp That Frog Kurtis tries to convince Black Dynamite to spare him, saying that he was a role model father figure to Black Dynamite when his real father abandoned him. However, it's all just a distraction to try and pull a knife on him. In the season 1 finale, Black Dynamite's father Reverent Daddy Dynamite returns after walking out 25 years ago. He immediately takes advantage of his son's desire to reconnect, crashing at his place for free and using his influence in the black community to start fleecing people.

Children Are Innocent: Mr. Rogers has this mindset about children, and will kill people in front of them to defend it; though in his defense, the higher-ups at PBS wanted to make a spin-off of Mister Rogers' Hood rife with gangbanger puppets and sell them cocaine, which was went sent him over the edge. In the same episode, Black Dynamite was trying to arrange a birthday party for the orphans, and did everything he could not to remind them of their lost parents. This started with avoiding any baby or mommy dolls, but then escalated to avoiding Stretch Armstrong (who would remind them of the hugs they never got) or Simon toys (which would teach them to remember things, like their dead parents). By the end of the episode, he's learned that the orphans are old enough not to be bothered by those vague reminders... so he goes the opposite extreme, and gets each orphan a present directly related to how they were orphaned. Like a toy car the exact same make and model that Little Orphan Willis' parents crashed in.

Mood Whiplash: An example in Taxes and Death; whilst in jail, Richard Pryor pours his heart out to Black Dynamite, saying how being a comedian isn't all it's cracked up to be, and how he has some serious things to say, but nobody will listen to him. Once the monologue's over, though...

When the firing stopped, they spelled out "WE MISSED" in bullet holes on the brick wall behind them.

Hookers and Blow: Instead of using the funding money to buy and maintain equipment for Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, the PBS executives instead spend it on prostitutes, cheap alcohol, and lavish parties. The reveal of this coupled with them trying to convince Mr. Rogers to market to children, including a very inappropriate segment on his show, causes Rogers to snap.

Problem is, the drugs were so inexpensive and high quality that everyone in The Black Community ended up selling them to suburban white drug addicts for enormous profits, enough to even fund a Community Festival.

BD mentions how one plan wouldn't work because Honey Bee wouldn't buy it, right before asking Honey Bee if she would buy it. She just stands there with an unamused look on her face. BD himself becomes victim when everyone at Roscoe's starts discussing who should represent the Black Race in the Race War.

Historical In-Joke
 Black Dynamite / int_dfe57573
comment
Historical In-Joke: Even more so than the movie, with strong doses of Refuge in Audacity. Jackson Five Across Yo' Eyes depicts Michael Jackson's post-plastic surgery pale face and hair as being his actual Half-Human Hybrid form, and hilariously has Michael framing Joe Jackson for the childhood abuse. Jackson's distinctive "Shamone" catchphrase is also explained as a constant reminder of the Jackson brother whom he beat to death. In Taxes and Death when BD and his crew are searching for Richard Pryor they enlist the help of Paul Mooney to track him down, during which they suddenly see a basehead running and screaming while on fire and they give chase to him. After Mooney sedates him with blowgun darts laced with cocaine, vodka tonic and white woman saliva BD stomps out the fire literally... only to find out the basehead wasn't Richard Pryor. A Crisis For Christmas: O.J. Simpson is brooding at the Whorephanage after having ditched Black Dynamite on the rocket, remembering BD's statement that O.J. would go to the moon for the White Man. Angrily vowing to no longer kow-tow to the White Man, O.J. takes a carving knife and stabs a Christmas turkey prompting a Foreshadowing caution from Bullhorn: The Shit That Killed The King: After Elvis Presley collapses dead at Roscoe's, Honey Bee comes up with a plan to move the King's body back to Graceland and make it look like he died of an overdose there in order to prevent The N-Bomb from being dropped on The Black Community. Except in a Not His Sled moment, it turns out Elvis didn't die but just fell into one of his apparently periodic temporary comas.

Unexplained Recovery: This is the reason B.D.'s former commanding officer gives when B.D. tells him that his former partner was gutted and hung by his own intestinal tract during the Vietnam War.

Depraved Kids' Show Host: While Mr. Rogers is indeed a Friend to All Children, he's also a brutal lunatic who ends up "protecting" them by turning them into his own private army.

Space Whale Aesop: At the end of Bullhorn Nights, we get two from Cream Corn and Honey Bee; respectively, "Never mix pornos and friendships" and "Don't fuck with a white bitch, or you'll end up dead."

Once Per Season: Black Dynamite fighting off multiple copies of a single black person (clones of The Love Boat's Isaac in season 1's Panic on the Player's Ball Express and multiple actors portraying the Brown Hornet in season 2's Sweet Bill's Badass Singalong Song). An elderly bitch from child protective services will attempt to shut the whorephanage down for countless violations, and only after accepting favors from Cream Corn (which he's non-consensual towards) does she let the whorephanage slide (season 1's Honky Kong and season 2's Diff'rent Folks, Same Strokes).

Running Gag Black Dynamite will be interrupted in the middle of something every episode. Whenever someone gets hurt or screwed over by Black Dynamite, they will say, "Black Dynamite, you ain't shit!" Roscoe still serves meals consisting of questionable combinations (turkey necks and muffins, jell-o and grits, etc.). In Get Him to the Sunset Strip, Richard Pryor commenting on unfortunate happenings with "...Motherfucker." On a similar note, Sun Tzu's advice on Panic on the Player's Ball Express normally concluding with "... when you have the flu." Don Cornelius falling asleep in the middle of his lines in American Band Standoff.

Lampshaded by the ninja: And the Ninja in question is called "Head Ninja In Charge". In another episode, Black Dynamite responds to a report of a murderous killing.

comment
Brick Joke: In "The Shit That Killed the King"', Basehead establishes that he can get into any place by virtue of being a basehead, demonstrated by exiting the Oval Office and showing up to the right of Nixon. At the end of the episode, the camera cuts to the outside of Graceland... In "Apocalypse This!" or 'For The Pity Of Fools' AKA 'Flashbacks Are Forever!", Black Dynamite tells Cream Corn to grow some hair on his nuts, referring to the fact that he's acting like a coward in the middle of a firefight, and he needs to man up. At the end of the episode, CC pulls out a single curly pubic hair and tells him he finally started growing hair on his nuts. In A Crisis For Christmas; or The Dark Side of the Dark Side of the Moon: When O.J. Simpson gets plowed by a comet while trying to stay clear of BD: In "American Band Standoff", James Brown talks to Don Cornelius in the form of gibberish that sounds like scat singing. At the end, as Cornelius thanks James for living up to an agreement they made earlier in the episode, he briefly uses the same gibberish James used in the first conversation.

Shown Their Work

comment
Shown Their Work: Surprisingly- given the show, Honky Kong's micro-penis is this since gorillas have very small penises compared to humans. In That Seed of Kurtis just as BD goes to kill That Bastard Kurtis, Rev. Dynamite notices two tadpoles in his shoes and tells BD that if he kills Kurtis they will end up in the same situation 13 weeks later which is roughly the amount of time it takes a tadpole to become an almost mature frog. Though its range is unrealistic, what does BD use to go from the clearly Mir-inspired Soviet space station to the Moon? Why, the Lunniy Korabl from the unsuccessful N1 Rocket.
