Adult Swim has a new series coming called “Black Jesus.” The show is a new half-hour live-action scripted comedy from Aaron McGruder, creator of the acclaimed series “The Boondocks.” The show finds Jesus living in present day Compton, CA on a daily mission to spread love and kindness throughout the neighborhood with the help of his small but loyal group of downtrodden followers. The series stars newcomer Gerald “Slink” Johnson as Black Jesus, Charlie Murphy, Corey Holcomb and John Witherspoon. Look for the show to premiere later this year.
