History tells us 1 thing... TV another

This Review has been written on Novo 6th 2022.

About: Uncle Ruckus, Robert Freeman and Huey retell the story of Catcher Freeman who may or may not be a slave, a hero or just some guy during the days of so called slavery.

Story and Production: The story, I mean "Stories" were funny as hell or funny as the bible. Robert Freeman story was funny, and Uncle Ruckus Story was funny. Especially Uncle Ruckus coming out of nowhere to show his hatred for the so-called black man. The flow of the episode was great and did I say funny?

Highlight: Slaves taking shots at the massa

Main Intelligence: I'll give it an 8 for Huey using the internet to end the debate between Uncle Ruck and Robby Freeman.

Is this episode worthy?: For sure. Rob's version of Catcher Freeman would definitely be worthy of...

Should you watch this? Yes. If you can't find humor in slavery for once, then go watch Paw Patrol, dognutter.
