Legends of Chamberlain Heights is a 2016 Comedy Central animated series created by Brad Ableson, Mike Clements, Quinn Hawking, Josiah Johnson and Michael Starrbury, who also make up most of the voice cast.The show is centered around three inner-city high school freshmen; Grover Cummings, "Milk" Milton and Jamal, who attend the Michael Clarke Duncan High School in the neighborhood of Chamberlain Heights. The three dream of achieving basketball glory and becoming "legends", especially Grover, whose older brother Montrel was a hugely successful high school basketball player before he turned into a washed-up has-been. Unfortunately, the three have dreams that don't match up with their actual skills, and are unable to escape their hated roles as benchwarmers. On top of that, they're subject to the cruel social realities of high school. Rounding out the cast is Grover's 8-year-old drug-dealing brother Malik, his love interest Cindy, Jerk Jock bully Randy, Jamal's on-off girlfriend Medina, and Jamal's identical sister Shamal.Despite a very mixed response and a serious case of Broken Base, Chamberlain was renewed for a second season before it even premiered. Similar to an earlier Comedy Central series, Brickleberry, the show relies heavily on Vulgar Humor; which itself can be very divisive depending on the viewer. The show was not renewed for a third season.

Own Goal: Grover accomplishes this in the Season 1 finale episode "25th Hour." After he makes the winning throw to send the Black Holes to the playoffs and receives fame from it, they lose the next game by 118 points (12 - 130) and Grover himself only manages to score two points, in the wrong basket.

The Ghost: The Cummings brothers live with their mother. Other than Malik mentioning that she brings in the steady income in the pilot, she has yet to be seen or at least properly introduced in the series. She's mentioned again by Grover in season 2, where he remarks that they almost never see her because she's always working.

Hidden Depths: The brutish Ledante turns out to be a great video game player and trains Grover in competing at a pro gaming tournament.Ladante treats the Egg Sitting in episode two as Serious Business. It's implied that he has been left back since he tells Randy he has completed the course over five times. The Phys Ed. teacher/coach even tells Randy that he is partnered with Ladante because Ladante is the best student at the egg sitting assignment (this way Ladante will do all the work and Randy will not be too tired to play basketball).

Bourgeois Bohemian: In the season 2 premiere, Chamberlain Heights is overrun by these people, who quickly proceed to gentrify the entire neighborhood, driving out most of the black residents and replacing their stores with hipster nonsense. They also change the name of the high school to "Matt Damon High", and cancel basketball in favor of friggin water polo.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: "Gold" is stretching it, but Montrel does realize what a selfish asshole he's been in the season 1 finale, and helps motivate Grover to make the match-winning free throw. Becomes more apparent in season 2 when the Cummings absent father returns, and Montrel protects Grover from being exploited by him. He also saves Grover from getting beat up by Randy at a house party.

comment
Butt-Monkey: Jank-Eye Jarvis, a diabetic student with an enlarged eye who gets bullied even worse than the main characters. Team Captain Randy can also qualify. He frequently gets hit with Laser-Guided Karma, to the point of Once an Episode. If he is being a bully or a jerk, especially as part of the episode's plot, then by the end of the episode, something bad is going to happen to him. A short list: His penis fell off in the pilot, he was partners with Ladante, he injured his neck showboating in the season one finale, got beat up by Milk to the point he was crying in "Chocolate Milk", became the bench warmer for the polo team, got peed on, and was kissed by Ladante in "The G-Word", and was humiliated to the point of tears in "Coach Fishy".

comment
Acquired Situational Narcissism: In season 2, Jamal becomes popular when hipsters overrun Chamberlain Heights and he finds out he's a great water polo goalie (because he's so fat he floats automatically and just blocks all the shots). He immediately ditches Grover and Milk for the new cool crowd. This has happened to all three main characters by the beginning of the second season. One of them will become successful or popular and then will eventually abandon or be abandoned by the other two.

comment
Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: Malik is the youngest of the Cummings brothers yet he seems to be the most intelligent and (for the most part) the most mature. Montrel is the oldest brother, he plays video games all day, does drugs, and has shady connections. He regularly bullies middle brother Grover and does not seem to actively contribute to the household. Grover is somewhere in the middle. He leans more towards Montrel since he idolizes his older brother as they both like basketball, but when situations turn bad, he usually turns to Malik first in helping to solve the episode's conflict. Grover also regularly attends school and tries to be responsible.

Drill Sergeant Nasty: Coach Bundy is the coach variant. He regularly yells at all players, including the good ones, and shows little empathy to his players most of the time. In "Coach Fishy", he is fired after Milk records and posts a video of him acting particularly nasty to Randy. He refuses to apologize and the parents waste no time firing him once the issue comes up. He regains his position at the end of the episode.

The "Chris Brown" setting is stated to be the salon's bestseller while "Akon" requires signed paperwork and approval from the manager.

Prison Rape: The last episode of season 2 deals with the gang ending up in prison, and Jamal's subplot revolves around pretending to be gay to avoid this. Apparently if you're actually interested in gay sex, the other prisoners leave you alone. Montrels advice to Grover when he's transferred from juvie to adult prison is that "if you get your backside dug out and don't tell anybody, then it didn't happen."

In "Hurricane Jermaine", Milk saves Jamal and Grover with his hidden swimming skills and is rewarded by being allowed to say "nigs" for the rest of the roadtrip. He then says it skyward and cries from it being so rewarding in a moment that's actually pretty heartwarming despite the context.

Abusive Parents: The Cummings brothers' Disappeared Dad returns unexpectedly in season 2, claiming to have been imprisoned under false charges (we're shown the actual circumstances in a flashback; he was caught driving a car with three hookers and a bag of cocaine), and claiming he's turned over a new leaf and wants to repair his relationship with his sons. Grover and Malik are accepting, but Montrel openly despises him, and we're shown why; he was an awful father and treated Montrel like crap. It eventually turns out he's not the least bit interested in bonding with his kids, he just wants Grover to move in with him because he has a second family (white wife and mixed race kids), and having a full-black kid living with them will gain them admission into a prestigious school.

Fate Worse than Death: When Montrel briefly gets Locked-In syndrome from a new type of pot, Malik misunderstands his choked plea for help as "help to improve himself", and doesn't notice that Montrel can't even move. So Montrel ends up having to sit through Malik reading his entire collection of overwrought black literature to him, with no ability to flee.

Elvis Lives: Turns out Tupac Shakur is still alive, and masquerading as a female stripper at a strip club called The Mooseknuckle. It's not exactly a good disguise either, he looks just like himself but with breasts and girl hips. Hell, he's still bald and wearing his trademark bandanna!

Big "NO!": Randy, who understandably did this when his dick fell off. He also gave one of these when he was paired up with the prison rapist Ledante as part of the school's "egg baby" project.

Yank the Dog's Chain: Grover makes the match-winning free throw in the season 1 finale, giving the team the win and gets them to the playoffs AND has a date with Cindy at last, Jamal has made a ton of money selling Grover merchandise, and Milk has hooked up with two hot girls, looks like they're finally gonna get to be "legends"... right until the next game, when the team loses by 110 points, Grover scores all of one goal (in the wrong basket), Milk gets ditched by the girls, and Jamal is robbed outside a pie store. End of season 1. In the same epilogue, we see that Montrel decided to get his life together, and filled out several job applications... then, 10 minutes later, he used them to smoke pot, and fell asleep on the couch. In Season 2, the guys hook up with three girls when a hurricane flood traps them in a hotel in New Orleans during a road trip, and it looks like they're finally going to score... only for them to realize they don't have any protection (which the girls refuse to have sex without). So they almost kill themselves venturing outside for condoms, only for Randy and his friends having stolen their hookups by the time they get back. To add insult to injury, the girls had no problem banging them without condoms because of their jock status. The only upside is that Randy and company to end up with a nasty genital rash as a result.

Shout-Out: Milk refers to his step-father as "Uncle Joey" because he looks like Dave Coulier's character on Full House. His step-father isn't the least bit amused by it.

Disability as an Excuse for Jerkassery: "Special" Ted, a disabled student with a stunted arm and leg who uses his handicap as a reason to terrorize the school and bully anyone who pisses him off, even the teachers. He also accuses anyone who tries to back down from fighting him of ableism.

The End of the World as We Know It

comment
The End of the World as We Know It: Type 1 in one episode where the Internet goes down due to too many people sharing a sex tape with Bill Cosby. Society quickly crumbles and riots break out all over the city, leading to the characters desperately trying to stay alive, until the Internet comes back on and order is immediately restored. Thing is, the episode takes place in real time, so society crumbles and is rebuilt in about 20 minutes!

Drugs Are Bad
 Legends of Chamberlain Heights / int_de7b7cbf
comment
Drugs Are Bad: Parodied in the pilot where the local cops come to the school to show an incredibly dated anti-drug PSA, then confiscates all the drugs from the students' lockers. All this does is make the kids make their own drugs. Turns out the reason Montrel is such a washout is because he smoked his first joint, and immediately became an addict who used his scholarship certificate to Duke's University to roll joints in.

But Not Too Black
 Legends of Chamberlain Heights / int_e251fae2
comment
But Not Too Black: One episode revolves around Milk getting a skin treatment that makes him black. The clerk recommends he start with a caramel brown (Milk originally wanted the full-on Akon treatment), and Milk, dubbing himself "Chocolate" Milk, becomes enormously popular and receives preferential treatment by both students and adults. Malik sabotages Milk's next treatment, making him as dark as possible, and he's immediately reduced to second-class citizen status.

Wouldn't Hit a Girl: Milk avoids the consequences of his fight with "Special" Ted this way, by pissing off Ted's even meaner and violent sister. He still gets his ass handed to him, but can claim that he didn't want to hit a girl, rather than that he's a wuss and a bad fighter.
