It was the series that spoke truth to power and delved into societal issues that other mainstream shows wouldn't even dream of touching. With news of a reboot, fans of the show are grateful that it is finally free, after spending years in television purgatory.

Till its return, let's discuss 10 things you probably missed in the original. Few expected it to last past its first season but by the time it reached season 3, the creators thought the show was living off of borrowed time.

The final episode of season 3 "It's Goin' Down" was supposed to be the series finale and it did everything in the episode to go out with a bang, parodying Fox's 24, complete with a government takeover of the neighborhood, as the Jack Bauer character has a final confrontation with Huey.

Kelly is faced with insurmountable evidence showing he was guilty of the crime, the jury finds him innocent, for no other reason than he a celebrity.

Uncle Ruckus, the self-hating, racial epithet throwing neighbor of the Freeman family is by far the most controversial figure in the series, as he constantly denigrates black culture and those who celebrate it.

Otis Jenkins better known by his stage name Thugnificent is a once-famous rapper, an obvious parody of Ludacris , Thugnificent hails from the town of Terra-Belle , Georgia, one of the poorest and toughest towns in America. Following his rise to fame, Thugnificent moves into Woodcrest along with his Lethal Interjection Crew , but is forced to move and take a delivery job as his popularity falls and his crew deserts him.

Thugnificent is loud, obnoxious, immature and blatantly rude for a man his age. He had made his success by being what can best called a "professional buffoon. His songs, though popular when they came out, were limited to simple verses. When his popularity and career started to fail, it was his use of auto tune that sealed his doom.

As a rapper and the only resident of Terra-Belle to achieve success, Thugnificent saw himself as being like royalty. He flaunted his wealth and lifestyle, taking pride in the hate and envy he gained.

Thugnificent was also a horrible influence on children, foremost among them Riley.
