Ed, Edd n Eddy is an animated series produced by a.k.a. Cartoon for the Cartoon Network. The premise is that three friends—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 was first aired in 1999 on Cartoon Network and has since attracted millions of fans worldwide. Originally, there were to only be four seasons; Cartoon Network, however, has ordered two more seasons of Ed, Edd n Eddy, bringing the series' length to six seasons. There will also be three holiday specials: Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine's Day.

In Australia, it is shown on WinTV in nine cities. The show's name is particularly funny in Spanish, where it is Ed, Edd y Eddy.

Characters

  • Ed, "harebrained," likes buttered toast, gravy, and monster movies
  • Edd (a.k.a. Double D or Double Dee), inventor and neat freak
  • Eddy, incompetent juvenile con artist, scams people for money to get jawbreakers
  • Sarah, Ed's bad-tempered sister, has a crush on Double D
  • Jimmy, aspiring artist, likes playing dollies with Sarah
  • Rolf, of foreign culture with odd customs, enjoys farming, leads a scouting group called the Urban Rangers, son of a shepherd
  • Jonny, likes collecting clams, carries "Plank", a piece of plywood, around, has a huge head
  • Plank, a piece of plywood with drawn-on eyes and mouth, likes to mess with the Eds
  • Nazz, the more mature girl in the cul-de-sac, hangs out with Kevin
  • Kevin, the "cool" kid, calls the Eds dorks, watches 60 Minutes
  • Lee, Marie, and May (collectively known as the Kanker Sisters) have a crush on the Eds. They live in a nearby trailer park.

Interesting notes

What is most remarkable about Ed, Edd n Eddy is the fact that it is animated using traditional cel animation, while most cartoons are now animated using 2D computer animation.

An interesting gimmick in the show (much akin to the theme in Peanuts) is that the number of characters in the show is "fixed": no adults or other characters other than those already in play ever appear in the show. 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, who he sometimes talks to (although she never talks back).

Another gimmick is the constant use of the letters "AKA," which is the name of the company that produces the show. The words have been seen on licence plates, magazines, and other things.

Television is an odd matter in the series. Typically, the only thing on is a movie that is later identified in "Nagged to Ed" as Fishbowl 2 ("A classic!"), which consists of live-action paper fish being moved around on sticks. In another episode, in which the characters play hide and seek, Ed hides inside the television set, in the same setting as a cartoon character resembling Felix the Cat.

All the episode titles have the word "Ed" in them, e.g., "Knock, Knock, Who's Ed?" and "Wish You Were Ed."
