Premiering
on Cartoon Network January 4th, 1999, Ed, Edd, n Eddy, created by Danny Antonucci, became the
fifth official Cartoon Cartoon. Ed, Edd, and Eddy are three adolescents who are constantly trying to figure out how to be cool and get their hands an some enormous jawbreakers. Edd is the brains of the outfit, ever so cautious and weary of the
greedy Eddy's hair-brained schemes. Ed is just dumb and smelly, but those are his good points. The trio are best friends, and are outcast from most other kids their age. The most popular kid in the neighborhood, Kevin (a jock, natch), thinks of the Ed's as "dorks". Always looking for new ways to make money for jawbreakers, Ed, Edd, and Eddy can be sometimes relentless in their pursuits.
Basically, all they want to do is have fun. A typical plot for Ed, Edd, and Eddy involves the trio trying to get home naked, while at the same time making sure nobody sees them. As immature as the characters which star in it, this show is essentially about kids and growing up. Acne, girls, and awkwardness,
Ed, Edd, and Eddy can be compared to the life of a real life early teen. Usually, the
boys are humiliated by the end of each episode, but they don't seem to mind much. With the ability to bounce right back from every predicament...they are always ready to get their greasy hands on that ever-rarest jawbreaker.
Ed, Edd, n Eddy is currently in its fourth season.
