The cartoon has drawn fire from several prominent African Americans who call the episode degrading.
Critics say MTV2 showed especially poor judgment because the weekly animated program, “Where My Dogs At?”, appeals to young teens and airs at an hour, 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays, when many children are watching television.
The half-hour show lampoons real-life celebrities and pop culture as seen through the eyes of two wise-cracking stray dogs — Woofie and Buddy — voiced by comedians Tracy Morgan and Jeffrey Ross, respectively.
