The popular urban Blaxploitation classics such as Shaft, Super Fly, Cleopatra Jones, Coffy, Foxy Brown, Black Samurai, Undercover Brother, and Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song comes to Black Dynamite, a young fly Vietnam War veteran and former CIA officer. Black Dynamite fights and clean up the streets of drugs and gang violence throughout his community, go up against a rogue corrupt federal government, and fighting racism of the Ku Klux Klan. Black Dynamite is also a fine, handsome man especially the taste of women he romance anywhere, everytime. So cool that Michael Jai White, Byron Minns, Tommy Davidson, and Kym Whitley reprise their roles from the film, Black Dynamite.

Blaxploitation is a genre that isn't used as much as I think it could be. That said, I think Black Dynamite fills in the holes in our hearts that were left by classics like the film this show is based on (by the same name) and Pootie Tang. Long live the Whorephanage!

This show has potential. The funny episodes have been ROFL, but a couple of them have died quietly on the screen. With that said, it may not get the mileage, but if it is given the chance, BD could definitely stand tall with the Boondocks for socially conscious, culturally scathing hilarity.
