Ed, Edd n Eddy is a Canadian-American animated television series created by Danny Antonucci and produced by a.k.a. Cartoon for the Cartoon Network. The premise is that three adolescent boys—named Ed, Edd, and Eddy (collectively known as "the Eds")—hang around in their suburban neighborhood of Peach Creek Estates. Led by Eddy, the Eds scheme to make money off their peers, but their plans usually fail, leaving them in various predicaments. The characters almost never leave the neighborhood, and adults are nowhere to be found.

The series, which was Cartoon Network's fifth Cartoon Cartoon, was first aired in 1999 and has since attracted millions of fans worldwide. Originally, there were to be only four seasons; Cartoon Network, however, has ordered two more seasons of Ed, Edd n Eddy, bringing the series' length to six seasons. There are also three holiday specials: Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine's Day episodes. It is now reigning as the longest running original cartoon on Cartoon Network.

Trivia

  • Ed, Edd n Eddy was unusual in that it was animated wholly using traditional cel animation, while most cartoons are now animated using 2D computer animation. The use of painted cels lasted up to the end of the 4th season: Though the show is entirely hand-drawn, all cels are colored digitally. This is due to the fact that no animation studio paints cels anymore. It was the last major cartoon to use painted cels.
  • The number of characters in Ed, Edd n Eddy are "fixed": no adults or other characters other than those already in play ever appear in the show, except for a few thrown in at special times. The entire adult world is a set of hidden characters. Occasionally, a vehicle will enter the small universe the show is set in, and it can be presumed that an adult is driving, although they are never seen. The character who comes closest to ever being seen is Rolf's Nana, whom he sometimes talks to, although she never talks back.
  • The letters "AKA," which is the abbreviation for the name of the company that produces the show, frequently appear in the show. The words have been seen on license plates, magazines, T-shirts, and other things.
  • Several errors in the first four individual episodes—off-key music, disappearing outlines, and a fuzzy picture—were fixed for later airings.
  • Jawbreakers, the candy all the characters love, are huge candy spheres as big as (sometimes bigger than) the characters' heads (in contrast to real life, where large jawbreakers fit easily into the palm of a hand).
  • Television is an odd matter in the series. Typically, the only thing on is a movie that is identified in "Nagged to Ed" as Fishbowl 2 ("A classic!"), which consists of live-action paper fish being moved around on sticks, and several unnamed monster movies which are also live action from the brief glimpses seen. In another episode, in which the characters play hide and seek, Ed hides inside the television set during an episode of a cartoon called "The Glippo Show". In another episode, Rolf watches an obscure, live-action, "field work-themed" beauty pageant.
  • All the episode titles, except for the holiday specials, are popular sayings with a word replaced with the word "Ed/Eds" (E.g., "Knock, Knock, Who's Ed?" and "Wish You Were Ed."). Some are also parodies of movie titles (E.g., "For Your Ed Only" - For Your Eyes Only, "The Day the Ed Stood Still" - The Day the Earth Stood Still).
  • Most of the episodes begin with something completely unrelated to the storyline of the episode. This is to emphasize the randomness of childhood. [1]
  • In Brazil, the show is aired as Du, Dudu e Edu. In Spanish, the show's name is Ed, Edd y Eddy. In Polish, the show's title is Ed, Edd i Eddy.
  • The 4th wall is broken many times:
    • In "Robin Ed", after finding out that Eddy has been selling boxes of junk to the kids, Edd says "That's what we do on every show, but not like this!" as he complains about Eddy sinking to a new low.
    • At the end of act 1 of "If It Smells Like an Ed", Ed says "I should have the feeling back in my feet after a word from our sponsors, Double D!"
    • In "Key to My Ed", after repeatedly tripping over a sleeping Johnny 2x4, Eddy complains, "Does this kid sleep through the whole show?"
    • In "Stuck In Ed", after Edd reminds Eddy that he'd taught Jimmy everything he knows (in "Ed in a Half-Shell"), Eddy remarks: "Oh yeah! Didn't we win an Emmy for that episode?"
    • In "Ed in the Bush", as Eddy heads off to concoct a plan to ruin the Urban Ranger's camping trip, Ed says "End of first sequence, and fade to black" right before the scene fades out.
    • In "For Your Ed Only", Kevin is perplexed by Eddy and Edd's use of "hasta la vista" and "c'est la vie", and declares "This show needs subtitles."
    • In "Momma's Little Ed", Eddy apologizes to Edd for an outburst of bad temper, saying that Ed and Kevin had been getting on his nerves, and Edd points out "But Kevin wasn't in this show, Eddy."
    • In "Ed Overboard", when asked to be sworn in as a temporary member of the Urban Rangers, Eddy quips "I'd swear, but Standards won't let me."
    • In "Cry Ed", Edd complains "I think I've lost about 10 pounds this season" while chasing Eddy around.
    • In "The Good Ol' Ed", after Eddy finds the "Canadian squirt gun" from "Know-It-All Ed", Ed says "Funny, it was, as though it were only second season."
    • Near the end of "Boom Boom Out Go the Eds", after Ed finds Edd's hat and assumes the worst, Eddy protests "But it's the end of the show, Ed!"
    • In "Knock Knock, Who's Ed," Double D offers the Eds to go to either his or Eddy's house as an easy way to solve the episode's conflict of finding a TV to watch. Eddy rejects the idea, saying "What? And ruin the plot?"
    • In "Wish You Were Ed", after hearing Eddy's convoluted scheme to get Rolf to his home country, Edd says "Let me salvage what's left of this plot".
    • At the end of "Here's Mud in Your Ed", Edd says "An iris in would be appropriate right now, don't you think?"
    • In "Brother Can You Spare An Ed?", Double D makes a long, wordy speech about how guilty he feels for letting Ed buy jawbreakers with the money Sarah gave him (instead of fudge, like she asked), and Eddy comments, "Who writes this guy's stuff?"
  • Peach Creek Esates, which is where the cul-de-sac is, shares the name of a real-life neighborhood a wee bit west of Kingsland, Georgia. There is also such a neighborhood in Hewett, West Virginia. Unfortunately, the show's creators maintain that the Peach Creek of the show can never be found on a map, and is a more idealistic location than a specific one.
  • Edd has an ant farm of 5,239 ants. (In season 1, it was 4,837)
  • All the characters appear in each episode, except the Kanker Sisters - who did not debut until the second episode Nagged To Ed, and Sarah and Jimmy - who's disappearance in school episodes can be expected due to their being younger than the rest of the cast.
  • As before, when they are at school, there are only the show characters and no other students throughout their entire school, although other names are on the homeroom rosters. Even teachers aren't seen in the classes.
  • A majority of the show's voice actors are affiliated with Ocean Group
  • The Eds seem to have every class together, as seen in "Mission Ed-Possible." They also sit next to each other in every class.
  • A clip of the series can be seen on a television set in an episode of the television drama Judging Amy (specifically the episode "An Impartial Bias," but the sound on the television cannot be heard as well. Another clip of the series can be seen in the films Crazy/Beautiful and The Kid.
  • During speculation of the fifth season of the series the TV Tome website (now TV.com) listed a set of episodes that would be a part of the season, but those episodes turned out to be false. Among them included an episode where Edd clones himself and his clones start tormenting the others. While this problem was cleaned up, it created a great deal of confusion for fans, but it has probably inspired a good number of fan scripts.
  • In the episode "Urban-Ed," Ed makes a reference to Smokey and the Bandit; while in the city Ed drives through a lineup of kids and through a red light in a makeshift truck, shouting "Smokey's on my tail!"
  • Edependence Day was an Ed, Edd n Eddy marathon that premiered in July 2004.
  • Ed, Edd n Eddy are not set in any identifiable time frame. Danny Antonucci has stated that he wanted the show to appeal to any generation. If a VCR is needed in a plot, it is there. In the first episode, Edd used a computer to give Jonny a lie detector test, powered through a toaster. The kids do not have IPod, Game Boys or cell phones, Rolf's TV has 4 channels and Ed's TV has rabbit ear antennas.
  • In the Ed Edd n Eddy Hanky Panky Hullabaloo, when the Eds are in art class, Antonucci, the show's creator has his name on the chalkboard along with other well known artists.
  • In almost every episode Edd is refered to as "Double-D" in later seasons people had started to call Ed "Single-D"
