The Cost of Growing Up: An Everybody Hates Chris Retrospective

Everybody Hates Chris was only on the air for four seasons, but it made such a strong impression that 20 years later it managed to get an animated spin-off. The story of Chris Rock growing up in the 80's was surprisingly universal, and still says something about the world we live in today.
